This registration statement relates to the registration of securities that will be issued by Fathom Digital Manufacturing Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Fathom”), in connection with a series of transactions that comprise the business combination described in this registration statement and the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus, including securities that may be issued in the future upon the exercise, exchange or conversion of certain of the securities issued in the business combination as described herein (the “Business Combination”).
 
1.
The number of shares of Class A common stock of Fathom being registered includes (i) those relating to 34,500,000 Class A ordinary shares that were sold in connection with Altimar Acquisition Corp. II’s (“Altimar II”) initial public offering pursuant to its Registration Statement on
Form S-1
(File
No. 333-252260),
each of which will automatically convert into shares of Fathom Class A common stock in the Domestication (as defined herein) and remain outstanding following the Business Combination and (ii) 8,625,000 shares of Fathom Class A common stock representing 8,625,000 shares of Altimar II Class B ordinary shares held by the Altimar II Founders (as defined herein) that will automatically convert into 8,625,000 shares of Fathom Class C common stock in connection with the Domestication, which shares will then automatically convert into 8,625,000 shares of Fathom Class A common stock, subject to forfeiture by the Altimar II Founders of a portion of their shares of Class C common stock pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and the Forfeiture and Support Agreement as described herein. The 8,625,000 shares of Class A common stock includes 1,267,500 shares of Class A common stock which constitute the Sponsor Earnout Shares (as defined herein).
2.
Represents the maximum number of shares of Class A common stock that may be issued as merger consideration consisting of: (i) 99,400,000 shares of Class A common stock that may be issued as consideration for the direct or indirect ownership interests in Fathom Holdco, LLC (“Fathom OpCo”) in connection with the Business Combination (including shares of Class A common stock that may be issued upon the exchange of units of Fathom OpCo that will be issued in the Business Combination (the “New Fathom Units”)) and (ii) 9,000,000 shares of Class A common stock to be issued as earnout consideration in the Business Combination (including shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exchange of the portion of the earnout consideration to be issued initially in the form of New Fathom Units) and subject to vesting and forfeiture events under the terms of the documents governing the Business Combination.
3.
Calculated based on 8,625,000 redeemable warrants (the “Public Warrants”) and 9,900,000 redeemable warrants (the “Private Placement Warrants”), in each case issued by Altimar II, which will become warrants to purchase shares of Class A common stock in connection with the Business Combination.
4.
Pursuant to Rule 416(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), there are also being registered an indeterminable number of additional securities as may be issued to prevent dilution resulting from share splits, share dividends or similar transactions.
5.
Estimated solely for the purpose of calculating the registration fee in accordance with Rule 457(f)(l) under the Securities Act, based on the average of the high and low prices of the Class A ordinary shares of Altimar II on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) on September 13, 2021. Fathom will succeed Altimar II following the Business Combination described in this registration statement and the accompanying proxy statement/prospectus.
6.
The maximum number of Warrants are being simultaneously registered hereunder.
7.
Calculated by multiplying the proposed maximum aggregate offering price of securities to be registered by 0.0001091.
8.
No separate registration fee is required pursuant to Rule 457(g) under the Securities Act.
9.
Registration Fee has previously been paid.

Table of Contents
The existence of financial and personal interests of Altimar II’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of one or more of the directors between what he or they may believe is in the best interests of Altimar II and its shareholders and what he or they may believe is best for himself or themselves in determining to recommend that shareholders vote for the proposals. See the section entitled “
The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Altimar
II
Directors and Officers in the Business Combination
” in the proxy statement/prospectus when it becomes available for a further discussion.
Under the Business Combination Agreement, the approval of each of the Condition Precedent Proposals is a condition to the consummation of the Business Combination. The adoption of each Condition Precedent Proposal is conditioned on the approval of all of the Condition Precedent Proposals. The Advisory Charter Proposals and the Adjournment Proposal are not conditioned on the approval of any other proposal. If our shareholders do not approve each of the Condition Precedent Proposals, the Business Combination may not be consummated.
In connection with our initial public offering, on February 4, 2021, Sponsor and our officers and directors at the time of our initial public offering entered into a letter agreement (the “IPO Letter Agreement”) pursuant to which they agreed, among other things, to vote their Class B ordinary shares purchased prior to our initial public offering (“founder shares”), as well as any Class A ordinary shares sold by us in our initial public offering (“public shares”) purchased by them during or after our initial public offering, in favor of Altimar II’s initial business combination (including the proposal recommended by Altimar II’s board of directors in connection with such business combination). Accordingly, we expect them to vote their shares in favor of all proposals being presented at the Special Meeting. In addition, pursuant to the Forfeiture and Support Agreement, dated July 15, 2021 (as amended from time to time, the “Forfeiture and Support Agreement”), the parties, agreed, among other things, effective upon the Closing that, (a) Sponsor, on behalf of itself and the other Altimar II Founders, will waive the anti-dilution adjustments set forth in Altimar II’s existing Memorandum and Articles of Association and which will be set forth in Altimar II’s Certificate of Incorporation in connection with the Business Combination, (b) the Altimar II Founders will forfeit and surrender for no additional consideration the Forfeited Shares (as defined herein) which would be received upon the automatic conversion of their shares of Class C common stock upon the Closing and (c) Sponsor, from the date of the Business Combination Agreement until the earlier of Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms, will refrain from taking (and not cause Altimar II to take) any action the effect of which would be to cause Altimar II to breach its
non-solicitation
obligations set forth in Section 9.08 of the Business Combination Agreement. In addition, the Altimar II Founders agreed, among other things, (i) from the date of the Business Combination Agreement until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms, to not redeem any Class A ordinary shares (or, if applicable, shares of Altimar II Class A common stock) held by them and (ii) prior to the consummation of Business Combination or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement, to vote or cause to be voted, all of the Altimar II shares beneficially owned by the Altimar II Founders, at every meeting of the shareholders of Altimar II at which such matters are considered and at every adjournment or postponement thereof: (1) in favor of (A) the Business Combination and the Business Combination Agreement and the other transactions contemplated thereby (including any proposals recommended by Altimar II’s Board of Directors in connection with the Business Combination) and (B) any proposal to adjourn or postpone such meeting of shareholders to a later date if there are not sufficient votes to approve the Business Combination; (2) against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Altimar II under the Business Combination Agreement; and (3) against (A) any proposal or offer from any person concerning (I) a merger, consolidation, liquidation, recapitalization, share exchange or other business combination transaction involving Altimar II, or (II) the issuance or acquisition of shares of capital stock or other Altimar II equity securities (other than as contemplated or permitted by the Business Combination Agreement); and (B) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that would reasonably be expected to (x) impede the fulfillment of Altimar II’s conditions under the Business Combination Agreement or change in any manner the voting rights of any class of Altimar II’s shares or (y) result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or other obligation or agreement of Sponsor or any of the other Altimar II Founders contained in the Forfeiture and Support Agreement.

Table of Contents
Pursuant to Altimar II’s Existing Organizational Documents, a holder of public shares (“Public Shareholder”) may request that Altimar II redeem all or a portion of its public shares (which would become shares of Class A common stock in the Domestication) for cash if the Business Combination is consummated. For the purposes of Article 49.3 of the Existing Organizational Documents and the Cayman Islands Companies Act (As Revised), the exercise of redemption rights shall be treated as an election to have such public shares repurchased for cash and references in the proxy statement/prospectus relating to the Business Combination shall be interpreted accordingly. You will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:
 
  (i)
(a) hold public shares or (b) hold units and you elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares; and
 
  (ii)
prior to                 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on                 , 2021, (a) submit a written request to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, Altimar II’s transfer agent (the “transfer agent”), that Altimar II redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your public shares to the transfer agent, physically or electronically through Depository Trust Company (“DTC”).
Holders of units must elect to separate the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If holders hold their units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares and public warrants, or if a holder holds units registered in its own name, the holder must contact the transfer agent, directly and instruct it to do so.
Public shareholders may elect to redeem all or a portion of their public shares even if they vote for the Business Combination Proposal.
If the Business Combination is not consummated, the public shares will not be redeemed for cash. If a Public Shareholder properly exercises its right to redeem its public shares and timely delivers its shares to the transfer agent, we will redeem each public share for a
per-share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the trust account established in connection with our initial public offering (the “Trust Account”), calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest, less income taxes payable, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares. For illustrative purposes, as of                 , 2021, this would have amounted to approximately $    per public share. If a public shareholder exercises its redemption rights, then it will be exchanging its redeemed public shares for cash and will no longer own such shares. See “
The Extraordinary General Meeting — Redemption Rights
” in the proxy statement/prospectus for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your public shares for cash.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such Public Shareholder or any other person with whom such Public Shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its public shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares. Accordingly, if a Public Shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash.
The total consideration to be paid to the Fathom Blocker Owners and the Continuing Fathom Unitholders (each as defined herein), including CORE Industrial Partners Fund I, LP, at the Closing shall equal the aggregate of:
 
  (a)
(i) All the cash proceeds from the Trust Account established for the purpose of holding the net proceeds of Altimar II’s initial public offering, net of any amounts paid to Altimar II’s shareholders that exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, together with the proceeds from the PIPE Investment (as defined herein) (the “Available Cash Amount”), (ii) 
minus
$25,000,000 to be contributed by Altimar II to the balance sheet of Fathom OpCo, (iii)
 minus
up to $42,000,000 to be used to pay down certain indebtedness of Fathom OpCo, (iv)
 minus
certain transaction expenses of Fathom OpCo and Altimar II, which include fees and expenses of various advisors, transfer taxes, employee transaction bonuses, and filing and listing fees (the “Closing Cash Consideration”);
 
vi

Table of Contents
  (b)
A number of shares of Class A common stock and newly issued Class A units of Fathom OpCo (the “New Fathom Units”) (together with one share of Class B common stock to be issued at par value for cash in respect of each New Fathom Units), to be allocated as set forth on a schedule, dated as of the Closing Date, setting forth (i) the name of each Continuing Fathom Unitholder and Fathom Blocker Owner, and (ii) the allocation of the Closing Cash Consideration, the Closing Seller Equity Consideration and the Earnout Shares at the Closing to each of the Continuing Fathom Unitholders and Fathom Blocker Owners (the “Allocation Schedule”), in an aggregate number (rounded up to the nearest whole share) equal to the quotient of (i) the result of (A) $1,200,000,000
minus
(B) the Closing Cash Consideration
divided by
(ii) $10.00 (the “Closing Seller Equity Consideration”); and
 
  (c)
An aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of earnout equity consideration (in Class A common stock and New Fathom Units) (the “Earnout Shares”). These earnout shares will vest in three equal tranches of 3,000,000 shares, with each tranche vesting at each of the following share price thresholds: $12.50, $15.00 and $20.00, in each case subject to the vesting and forfeiture provisions set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement (as defined herein) and Fathom OpCo’s Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (the “Fathom Operating Agreement”). The earnout period will be five years from the date of the closing of the Business Combination. The achievement of the price threshold will be determined based on a VWAP for 20 trading days within any

Many of the terms used in this proxy statement/prospectus, including Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. Further, Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA as measures of operating performance, not as measures of liquidity. They should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for operating income, net income, operating cash flows or other income or cash flow statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP. The use of these measures without consideration of related GAAP measures is not adequate due to the adjustments described above. Our management compensates for these limitations by using
non-GAAP
measures as supplemental measures to our GAAP results. We present these measures to provide a more complete understanding of our performance as our management measures it. Amounts and percentages throughout this proxy statement/prospectus may reflect rounding adjustments and consequently totals may not appear to sum. For reconciliations

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE BUSINESS COMBINATION
 
Q:
WHAT IS THE BUSINESS COMBINATION?
 
A:
Altimar II and Fathom OpCo have entered into the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2021, pursuant to which, among other things:
 
  (a)
Altimar II will change its jurisdiction of incorporation by deregistering as an exempted company in the Cayman Islands and continuing and domesticating as a corporation under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Domestication”), upon which Altimar II will change its name to “Fathom Digital Manufacturing Corporation.”
 
  (b)
Fathom OpCo will issue managing member interests in Fathom OpCo to Altimar II in exchange for a nominal cash payment; and
 
  (c)
Following a series of reorganization transactions among certain equity holders of Fathom OpCo’s businesses (the “Fathom Blockers”) and Altimar II, as specified in the Business Combination Agreement, Rapid Merger Sub, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Altimar II, will merge with and into Fathom OpCo (the “Fathom Merger”), with Fathom OpCo as the surviving entity of the Fathom Merger (Fathom OpCo, in its capacity as the surviving entity of the Fathom Merger, is sometimes referred to as the “Fathom Surviving Entity”). Following the Fathom Merger, the Fathom Surviving Entity will be owned by Altimar II and all other holders of Fathom OpCo units outstanding as of immediately prior to the Fathom Merger (such other holders, excluding Altimar II, are referred to as the “Continuing Fathom Unitholders”).
 
    
Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the combined company will be organized in an
“Up-C”
structure, in which substantially all of the assets and business of the combined company will be held by Fathom OpCo. Altimar II and the Continuing Fathom Unitholders will be issued Class A units of Fathom OpCo (“New Fathom Units”). Altimar II will be the managing member of Fathom OpCo. Altimar II will issue to Continuing Fathom Unitholders for cash at par value a number of shares of Class B common stock equal to the number New Fathom Units held by the Continuing Fathom Unitholders. Altimar II’s other stockholders will hold Class A common stock of the combined company. Shares of Class A common stock will be entitled to economic rights and one vote per share and shares of Class B common stock will be entitled to one vote per share but no economic rights. The combined company’s business will continue to operate through Fathom OpCo.
 
    
Altimar II will hold the Special Meeting to, among other things, obtain the approvals required for the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and you are receiving this proxy statement/prospectus in connection with such meeting. See “
The Business Combination Agreement
” beginning on page 91. In addition, a copy of the Business Combination Agreement is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as
Annex C
. We urge you to read carefully this proxy statement/prospectus and the Business Combination Agreement in their entirety.

Table of Contents
    
The Business Combination cannot be completed unless Altimar II’s shareholders approve the Business Combination Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Business Combination Issuance Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal and the ESPP Proposal set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. Information about the Special Meeting, the Business Combination and the other business to be considered by shareholders at the Special Meeting is contained in this proxy statement/prospectus.
 
    
This document constitutes a proxy statement of Altimar II and a prospectus of Altimar II. It is a proxy statement because the board of directors of Altimar II is soliciting proxies using this proxy statement/prospectus from its shareholders. It is a prospectus because Altimar II, in connection with the Business Combination, is offering shares of Class A common stock in exchange for its outstanding Class A ordinary shares and as part of the consideration to be received as part of the Business Combination. See “
The Business Combination Agreement — Consideration
to be Received in the Business Combination
”.
 
Q:
WHAT WILL ALTIMAR II EQUITYHOLDERS OWN AS A RESULT OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION?
 
A:
Following completion of the Business Combination, Altimar II’s Public Shareholders will own approximately 25% of the fully-diluted common equity of Fathom (assuming that no shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares are elected to be redeemed by Altimar Public Shareholders and subject to the other assumptions set forth in “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information”). Assuming maximum redemptions by Altimar II Public Shareholders and subject to the other assumptions set forth in “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information”, Altimar II’s
non-redeeming
Public Shareholders will own approximately 17% of the fully-diluted common equity of Fathom following the Business Combination.
 
Q:
WHAT WILL ALTIMAR II FOUNDERS OWN AS A RESULT OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION?
 
A:
Following completion of the Business Combination, Altimar II Founders will own approximately 5.3% of the fully-diluted common equity of Fathom (assuming that no shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares are elected to be redeemed by Altimar Public Shareholders and subject to the other assumptions set forth in “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information”). Assuming maximum redemptions by Altimar II Public Shareholders and subject to the other assumptions set forth in “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information,” Altimar II Founders will own approximately 4.7% of the fully-diluted common equity of Fathom following the Business Combination. Assuming exercise of the 8,625,000 Public Warrants and the 9,900,000 Private Placement Warrants, the Altimar II Founders’ pro forma economic ownership of Fathom following the Business Combination is set forth below:

(1)
This presentation assumes no forfeiture of the Altimar II Founders’ Class C common stock pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and the Sponsor and Forfeiture Agreement.
(2)
This presentation assumes maximum redemptions. The assumptions under the maximum redemptions scenario includes: Public Shareholders redeem 11,200,000 shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares, the maximum number of shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares that may be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account that would still allow Altimar II to satisfy the condition precedent in the Business Combination Agreement that as of immediately prior to the Business Combination, Altimar II have an Available Cash Amount of at least $313 million. This calculation assumes that the full $80 million in aggregate proceeds are received from the PIPE Investment and that the amount in the Trust

Table of Contents
  Account (prior to any redemptions) is equal to $345 million (the approximate amount in the Trust Account as of June 30, 2021), resulting in an aggregate redemption payment (based on an estimated redemption price per share of approximately $10) of $112 million and available Trust Account proceeds at closing of approximately $233 million.
(3)
Percentage calculations assume the exercise and conversion of: (i) 8,625,000 Public Warrants and (ii) 9,900,000 Private Placement Warrants held by Sponsor. Percentage calculations exclude: (i) the Earnout Shares and the Sponsor Earnout Shares (each as defined herein), all of which will be unvested as of the Closing and (ii) shares and awards issuable under the 2021 Omnibus Plan.
(4)
Holdings of Altimar II Founders consist of (i) the shares of Class A common stock held by the Sponsor and the other Altimar II Founders upon automatic conversion of their Class B ordinary shares into Class C common stock as a result of the Domestication which shares of Class C common stock will then convert into Class A common stock and (ii) 9,900,000 shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants held by Sponsor. Holdings of Sponsor exclude 1,267,500 shares of Class A common stock that constitute Sponsor Earnout Shares (as defined herein).

Q:
WHAT WILL FATHOM EQUITYHODLERS RECEIVE IN THE BUSINESS COMBINATION?
 
A:
The total consideration to be paid to CORE Industrial Partners Fund I Parallel, LP, Siguler Guff Small Buyout Opportunities Fund III, LP, Siguler Guff Small Buyout Opportunities Fund III (F), LP, Siguler Guff Small Buyout Opportunities Fund III (C), LP, Siguler Guff Small Buyout Opportunities III (UK), LP, Siguler Guff HP Opportunities Fund II, LP, and Siguler Guff Americas Opportunities Fund, LP (collectively, the “Fathom Blocker Owners”) and the Continuing Fathom Unitholders, including CORE Industrial Partners Fund I, LP, at the Closing shall equal the aggregate of:
 
  (a)
(i) All the cash proceeds from the Trust Account established for the purpose of holding the net proceeds of Altimar II’s initial public offering, net of any amounts paid to Altimar II’s shareholders that exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, together with the proceeds from the PIPE Investment (as defined herein) (the “Available Cash Amount”), (ii) minus $25,000,000 to be contributed by Altimar II to the balance sheet of Fathom OpCo, (iii) minus up to $42,000,000 to be used to pay down certain indebtedness of Fathom OpCo, (iv) minus certain transaction expenses of Fathom OpCo and Altimar II, which include fees and expenses of various advisors, transfer taxes, employee transaction bonuses, and filing and listing fees (the “Closing Cash Consideration”);
 
  (b)
A number of shares of Class A common stock and New Fathom Units (together with one share of Class B common stock to be issued at par value for cash in respect of each New Fathom Units), to be
 
14

Table of Contents
  allocated in accordance with the allocation schedule to be delivered at the Closing (the “Allocation Schedule”), in an aggregate number (rounded up to the nearest whole share) equal to the quotient of (i) the result of (A) $1,200,000,000 minus (B) the Closing Cash Consideration divided by (ii) $10.00 (the “Closing Seller Equity Consideration”); and
 
  (c)
An aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of Class A common stock and New Fathom Units (the “Earnout Shares”). These earnout shares will be issued in three equal tranches of 3,000,000 shares and allocated in accordance with the Allocation Schedule, with each tranche vesting at each of the following share price thresholds: $12.50, $15.00 and $20.00, in each case subject to the vesting and forfeiture provisions set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement (as defined herein) and Fathom OpCo’s Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (the “Fathom Operating Agreement”). The earnout period will be five years from the date of the closing of the Business Combination. The achievement of the price threshold will be determined based on a VWAP for 20 trading days within any
30-trading
day period or a change of control transaction of Fathom that implies the same per share valuation as the applicable price threshold.
 
    
The $25,000,000 to be contributed to the balance sheet of Altimar II as described in clause (a)(ii) above may be reduced with the written consent of Altimar II and Fathom. In addition, Fathom OpCo may, at its discretion, reduce the $42,000,000 of cash to be used to pay down certain indebtedness of Fathom OpCo, as described in clause (a)(iii) above, by the amount, if any, necessary to cause the Closing Cash Consideration to equal $345,000,000; provided, however, such pay-down amount may not be less than $22,000,000 without the consent of Altimar II. In considering whether to agree to a reduction in (i) the Balance Sheet Contribution below $25,000,000 and (ii) the Debt Paydown Amount below $22,000,000, Fathom OpCo and Altimar II will consider a variety of factors, including whether any such reduction will facilitate the satisfaction of the Minimum Cash Condition and the closing of the Business Combination and the impact of such reductions on the Company’s liquidity, leverage, borrowing capacity under the New Credit Agreement, and ability to satisfy its expected working capital and capital expenditure needs. Fathom OpCo and Altimar II do not intend to agree to any reductions that would materially and adversely impact the ability of the Fathom to satisfy such needs for the foreseeable future following the Closing. Altimar II and Fathom OpCo presently estimate that the transaction expenses described in clause (a)(iv) above will amount to approximately $59,500,000 in the aggregate.
 
    
The methodology to be followed in the Allocation Schedule at the Closing will provide for the payment of approximately $             of the Closing Cash Consideration to direct and indirect holders of outstanding preferred units of Fathom OpCo (including accrued but unpaid preferred distributions thereon), and will allocate the balance of the Closing Cash Consideration and the total Closing Seller Equity Consideration to direct and indirect holders of outstanding common units of Fathom OpCo, on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of outstanding common units held. The Earnout Shares will be allocated in accordance with the Allocation Schedule to the direct and indirect holders of outstanding common units of Fathom OpCo on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of outstanding common units held. The portion of the Closing Cash Consideration to be paid to direct and indirect holders of outstanding preferred units of Fathom OpCo as described above assumes, for illustration, the inclusion of accrued preferred distributions through                     , 2021. The total amount to be paid to the holders of preferred units will vary to reflect the accrued preferred distributions as of the Closing Date.
 
Q:
WHAT INFLUENCE WILL THE CORE INVESTORS HAVE ON FATHOM’S MANAGEMENT AND POLICIES FOLLOWING THE BUSINESS COMBINATION?
 
A:
Immediately following completion of the Business Combination, the CORE Investors will beneficially own approximately 45% of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock (or 51.5% assuming maximum redemptions by Altimar II Public Shareholders). The Class A common stock and Class B common stock generally will vote together on matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, including the election of directors. As a result, the CORE Investors will have the ability to influence our business and
 
15

Table of Contents
  affairs through “negative control” rights resulting from their ownership of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock combined with certain supermajority voting provisions of the Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws, their general ability to vote on the election of directors to our board and the provisions in the Investor Rights Agreement described below.
 
    
In addition, in connection with the Business Combination, we will enter into the Investor Rights Agreement with the CORE Investors which will provide for an initial eleven-person board of directors, consisting of nine individuals to be designated by the CORE Investors, and one independent director to be mutually agreed by the CORE Investors and the Sponsor. The CORE Investors will have certain continued nomination rights for a number of directors ranging from the majority of the board of directors to one director, while they beneficially own shares of common stock in excess of certain ownership percentage of the amount owned by the CORE Investors at Closing, as determined in accordance with the Investor Rights Agreement. See “The Business Combination Agreement – Related Agreements – Investor Rights Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement” for more details with respect to the Investor Rights Agreement.
 
Q:
WHEN WILL THE BUSINESS COMBINATION BE COMPLETED?
 
A:
The parties currently expect that the Business Combination will be completed during the second half of 2021. However, neither Altimar II nor Fathom OpCo can assure you of when or if the Business Combination will be completed, and it is possible that factors outside of the control of Altimar II and Fathom OpCo could result in the Business Combination being completed at a different time or not at all. The outside date for consummation of the Business Combination is December 31, 2021. Altimar II must first obtain the approval of Altimar II shareholders for each of the Condition Precedent Proposals, Fathom OpCo must obtain the approval of its members, and Altimar II and Fathom OpCo must also first obtain certain necessary regulatory approvals and satisfy other closing conditions. See “
The Business Combination Agreement — Conditions to Closing of the Business Combination
Agreement
.”
 
Q:
WHAT HAPPENS IF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION IS NOT COMPLETED?
 
A:
If Altimar II does not complete the Business Combination with Fathom OpCo for any reason, Altimar II would need to search for another target business with which to complete a business combination. If Altimar II does not complete the Business Combination with Fathom OpCo or a business combination with another target business by February 9, 2023, Altimar II must redeem 100% of the outstanding Class A ordinary shares, at a
per-share
price, payable in cash, equal to the amount then held in the Trust Account (less income taxes paid or payable, if any, and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of then outstanding Class A ordinary shares. The Sponsor has no redemption rights in the event a business combination is not effected in the required time period and, accordingly, its founder shares will be worthless. Additionally, in the event of such liquidation, there will be no distribution with respect to Altimar II’s outstanding warrants. Accordingly, such warrants will expire worthless.
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT OUR EXTRAORDINARY GENERAL MEETING
 
Q:
WHAT AM I BEING ASKED TO VOTE ON AND WHY IS THIS APPROVAL NECESSARY?
 
A:
Altimar II shareholders are being asked to vote on the following Shareholder Proposals:
 
  1.
the Business Combination Proposal;
  2.
the Domestication Proposal;
  3.
the Organizational Documents Proposal;
  4.
the Advisory Charter Proposals;
  5.
the Stock Issuance Proposal;
  6.
the Business Combination Issuance Proposal;
  7.
the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal;
 
16

Table of Contents
  8.
the ESPP Proposal; and
  9.
the Adjournment Proposal.
 
    
The Business Combination is conditioned upon the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Business Combination Issuance Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal and the EPP Proposal, subject to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. The Business Combination is not conditioned on the approval of the Advisory Charter Proposals or the Adjournment Proposal. If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, the other proposals (except the Adjournment Proposal) will not be presented to the shareholders for a vote.
 
Q:
WHY IS ALTIMAR II PROPOSING THE BUSINESS COMBINATION?
 
A:
Altimar II was incorporated to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (each, a “business combination”).
 
    
On February 9, 2021, Altimar II completed its IPO, generating gross proceeds of $345,000,000 (including the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option). Since Altimar II’s initial public offering, Altimar II’s activity has been limited to the evaluation of business combination candidates.
 
    
Fathom OpCo, doing business as Fathom Digital Manufacturing, is a leading
on-demand
digital manufacturing platform in North America, providing comprehensive product development and manufacturing services to many of the largest and most innovative companies in the world.
 
    
The board of directors of Altimar II and the board of managers of Fathom OpCo have unanimously approved the proposed transaction. The proposed Business Combination will create a publicly traded leader in the $25 billion
low-to-mid
volume
on-demand
manufacturing industry.
 
    
Based on its due diligence investigation of Fathom OpCo and the industry in which it operates, including the financial and other information provided by Fathom OpCo in the course of its negotiations in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, Altimar II believes that Fathom will have a uniquely attractive financial profile due to its compelling growth trajectory, robust margins, strong software platform and the highly fragmented, opportunity rich $25 billion
low-to-mid
volume market in which it operates. Specifically, Fathom’s unique
“one-stop-shop”
solution and scale will be difficult to replicate. As a result, Altimar II believes that Fathom will be well positioned to be a long-term leader in the $25 billion
low-to-mid
volume
on-demand
manufacturing industry, and that the Business Combination with Fathom OpCo will provide Altimar II shareholders with an opportunity to participate in the ownership of a company with significant growth potential.
 
Q:
DID THE ALTIMAR II BOARD OBTAIN A THIRD-PARTY VALUATION OR FAIRNESS OPINION IN DETERMINING WHETHER OR NOT TO PROCEED WITH THE BUSINESS COMBINATION?
 
A:
Altimar II’s board of directors did not obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in connection with its determination to approve the Business Combination.
 
    
Altimar II’s officers, directors and advisors have substantial experience in evaluating the operating and financial merits of companies from a wide range of industries and concluded that their experience and backgrounds, together with the experience and sector expertise of Altimar II’s financial advisors, enabled them to make the necessary analyses and determinations regarding the Business Combination. In addition, Altimar II’s officers, directors and advisors have substantial experience with mergers and acquisitions. Accordingly, investors will be relying solely on the judgment of Altimar II’s officers, board of directors and advisors in valuing Fathom OpCo’s business.

Q:
DO I HAVE REDEMPTION RIGHTS?
 
A:
If you are a holder of Class A ordinary shares, you have the right to demand that Altimar II redeem such shares for a pro rata portion of the cash held in the Trust Account, which holds the proceeds of Altimar II’s IPO, as of two business days prior to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Proposal (including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to Altimar II to pay its taxes) upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (such rights, “Redemption Rights”).
 
    
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of Class A ordinary shares, together with any affiliate of such holder or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemption with respect to more than 15% of the Class A ordinary shares. Accordingly, all Class A ordinary shares in excess of 15% held by a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such holder or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a “group”, will not be redeemed.
 
    
If passed, the Organizational Documents Proposal would remove the requirement that Altimar II have at least $5,000,001 of net tangible assets after giving effect to the redemption of all such shares.
 
Q:
WILL HOW I VOTE AFFECT MY ABILITY TO EXERCISE REDEMPTION RIGHTS?
 
A:
No. You may exercise your redemption rights whether you vote your Class A ordinary shares for or against, or whether you abstain from voting on, the Business Combination Proposal or any other Shareholder Proposal. As a result, the Business Combination Proposal can be approved by shareholders who will redeem their Class A ordinary shares and no longer remain shareholders and subject to the terms and conditions of the BCA, the Business Combination may be consummated even though the funds available from the Trust Account and the number of Public Shareholders are substantially reduced as a result of redemptions by Public Shareholders. Also, with fewer Class A ordinary shares and Public Shareholders, the trading market for Altimar II Class A ordinary shares may be less liquid than the market for Altimar II Class A ordinary shares prior to the Business Combination and Altimar II may not be able to meet the listing standards of a national securities exchange. In addition, with fewer funds available from the Trust Account, the capital infusion from the Trust Account into Fathom OpCo’s business will be reduced.
 
Q:
HOW DO I EXERCISE MY REDEMPTION RIGHTS?
 
A:
If you are a holder of Class A ordinary shares and wish to exercise your redemption rights, you must demand that Altimar II redeem your shares for cash no later than the second business day preceding the vote on the Business Combination Proposal by delivering your share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms to Altimar II’s transfer agent physically or electronically using Depository Trust Company’s DWAC (Deposit and Withdrawal at Custodian) system prior to the vote at the Special Meeting. Holders of units must elect to separate the underlying Class A ordinary shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the Class A ordinary shares. If holders hold their units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the units into underlying Class A ordinary shares and public warrants, or if a holder holds units registered in its own name, the holder must contact Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, Altimar II’s transfer agent, directly and instruct them to do so. Any holder of Class A ordinary shares will be entitled to demand that such holder’s shares be redeemed for a full pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account (which, for illustrative purposes, was approximately $                million, or $                per share, as of                 , 2021, the record date). Such amount, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to Altimar II to pay its taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), will be paid promptly upon consummation of the Business Combination. However, the proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could become subject to the claims of Altimar II’s creditors, if any, which could have priority over the claims of Altimar II’s Public Shareholders, regardless of whether
 
18

Table of Contents
  such Public Shareholders vote for or against the Business Combination Proposal. Therefore, the
per-share
distribution from the Trust Account in such a situation may be less than originally anticipated due to such claims. Your vote on any Shareholder Proposal will have no impact on the amount you will receive upon exercise of your redemption rights.
 
    
Any request for redemption made by a holder of Class A ordinary shares may not be withdrawn once submitted to Altimar II unless the board of directors of Altimar II determines (in its sole discretion) to permit the withdrawal of such redemption request (which it may do in whole or in part).
 
    
Any written demand of redemption rights must be received by Altimar II’s transfer agent prior to the vote taken on the Business Combination Proposal at the Special Meeting. No demand for redemption will be honored unless the holder’s share certificates (if any) and other redemption forms have been delivered (either physically or electronically) to the transfer agent prior to the vote at the Special Meeting.
 
    
If a holder of Class A ordinary shares properly makes a request for redemption and the certificates for the Class A ordinary shares (if any) along with the redemption forms are delivered as described to Altimar II’s transfer agent as described herein, then, if the Business Combination is consummated, Altimar II will redeem these shares for a pro rata portion of funds deposited in the Trust Account. If you exercise your redemption rights, then you will be exchanging your Class A ordinary shares for cash.
 
Q:
WHAT ARE THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF EXERCISING MY REDEMPTION RIGHTS?
 
A:
We expect that a U.S. holder (as defined in “
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Holders
” below) that exercises its redemption rights to receive cash from the Trust Account in exchange for its public shares will generally be treated as selling such public shares resulting in the recognition of capital gain or capital loss. There may be certain circumstances in which the redemption may be treated as a distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes depending on the amount of Fathom common stock that a U.S. holder owns or is deemed to own (including through the ownership of Fathom warrants). For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of an exercise of redemption rights, see “
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations
”. Additionally, because the Domestication will occur immediately prior to the redemption of U.S. holders that exercise redemption rights, U.S. holders exercising redemption rights will be subject to the potential tax consequences of Section 367 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the potential tax consequences of the rules applicable to a company treated as a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”), as a result of the Domestication. The tax consequences of exercising redemption rights are discussed more fully below under “
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Holders — Effect to U.S. Holders of Altimar II Ordinary Shares Exercising Redemption Rights
.”
 
Q:
DO I HAVE APPRAISAL RIGHTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSED BUSINESS COMBINATION AND THE PROPOSED DOMESTICATION?
 
A:
No. Neither Altimar II shareholders nor Altimar II warrantholders have appraisal rights in connection with the Business Combination or the Domestication under Cayman Islands law or under the DGCL.
 
Q:
WHY IS ALTIMAR II PROPOSING THE DOMESTICATION?
 
A:
Altimar II’s board of directors believes that there are significant advantages to Fathom that will arise as a result of a change of domicile to Delaware, including, (i) the prominence, predictability and flexibility of Delaware law, (ii) Delaware’s well-established principles of corporate governance and (iii) the increased ability for Delaware corporations to attract and retain qualified directors, each of the foregoing as discussed in greater detail in the section entitled “
Proposal No.
 2 — The Domestication Proposal — Reasons for the Domestication
.” Altimar II’s board of directors believes that any direct benefit that Delaware law provides to a corporation also indirectly benefits shareholders, who are the owners of the corporation. Additionally, Fathom OpCo has required the Domestication as a condition to consummating the Business Combination.
 
19

Table of Contents
    
To effect the Domestication, Altimar II will file a notice of deregistration with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies, together with the necessary accompanying documents, and file a certificate of incorporation and a certificate of corporate domestication with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, under which Altimar II will be domesticated and continue as a Delaware corporation, at which time Altimar II will change its name to “Fathom Digital Manufacturing Corporation.”
 
    
The approval of the Domestication Proposal is a condition to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement. The approval of the Domestication Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
two-thirds
of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. Abstentions and broker
non-votes,
while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, will not count as a vote cast at the Special Meeting. Under the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, prior to the closing of a business combination (as defined therein) only the holders of Altimar II Class B ordinary shares will be entitled to vote on the Domestication Proposal.
 
Q:
HOW WILL THE DOMESTICATION AFFECT MY PUBLIC SHARES, PUBLIC WARRANTS AND UNITS?
 
A:
On the effective date of the Domestication, (a) each outstanding Class A ordinary share will automatically convert into one share of Fathom Class A common stock, (b) each outstanding Class B ordinary share will automatically convert into one share of Fathom Class C common stock (and subsequently at the closing of the Business Combination, each outstanding share of Fathom Class C common stock will automatically convert into Fathom Class A common stock, subject to the forfeiture by the Altimar II Founders of a portion of their Class C common stock pursuant to the Forfeiture and Support Agreement and Business Combination Agreement as described herein) and (c) the outstanding warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares will automatically become exercisable for shares of Fathom Class A common stock. At a moment in time after the effectiveness of the Domestication and before the closing of the Business Combination, each outstanding unit of Altimar II (each of which consists of one share of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares and
one-fourth
of one warrant to purchase one share of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares) will be separated into its component common stock and warrant. Such warrants will become exercisable into shares of Class A common stock any time after the later of the one year following the completion of Altimar II’s IPO and 30 days following the completion of the Business Combination.
 
Q:
WHAT HAPPENS TO THE FUNDS DEPOSITED IN THE TRUST ACCOUNT AFTER CONSUMMATION OF THE BUSINESS COMBINATION?
 
A:
The net proceeds of Altimar II’s initial public offering, together with funds raised from the sale of Private Placement Warrants simultaneously with the consummation of Altimar II’s initial public offering, was placed in the Trust Account immediately following Altimar II’s initial public offering. After consummation of the Business Combination, the funds in the Trust Account will be used to pay holders of the Class A ordinary shares who exercise redemption rights, to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Business Combination (including aggregate fees of approximately $12,075,000 as deferred underwriting commissions related to Altimar II’s initial public offering) and, together with the proceeds of the PIPE Investment, to pay the Closing Cash Consideration.
 
Q:
WHAT ARE THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DOMESTICATION?
 
A:
As discussed more fully under “
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations
” below, it is the opinion of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP that the Domestication should qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(l)(F) of the Code. However, due to the absence of direct guidance on the application of Section 368(a)(1)(F) to a statutory conversion of a corporation holding only investment-type assets such as Altimar II, this result is not entirely clear. Assuming that the Domestication so qualifies,
 
20

Table of Contents
  U.S. holders (as defined in “
Material U.S.
Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Holders
” below) of Altimar II ordinary shares will be subject to Section 367(b) of the Code and, as a result:
 
   
A U.S. holder of Altimar II ordinary shares whose Altimar II ordinary shares have a fair market value of less than $50,000 at the time of the Domestication should not recognize any gain or loss and generally should not be required to include any part of Altimar II’s earnings in income;
 
   
A U.S. holder of Altimar II ordinary shares whose Altimar II ordinary shares have a fair market value of $50,000 or more on the date of the Domestication, but who at the time of the Domestication owns (actually and constructively) less than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Altimar II ordinary shares entitled to vote and less than 10% of the total value of all classes of Altimar II ordinary shares will generally recognize gain (but not loss) as a result of the Domestication. As an alternative to recognizing gain, such U.S. holders may file an election to include in income as a dividend earnings and profits (as defined in the U.S. Treasury regulations (“Treasury Regulations”) under Section 367 of the Code) attributable to its Altimar II ordinary shares provided certain other requirements are satisfied. Altimar II does not expect that Altimar II’s cumulative earnings and profits will be material at the time of the Domestication.
 
   
A U.S. holder of Altimar II ordinary shares who at the time of the Domestication owns (actually and constructively) 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of Altimar II ordinary shares or 10% of the total value of all classes of Altimar II shares entitled to vote will generally be required to include in income as a dividend earnings and profits (as defined in the Treasury Regulations under Section 367 of the Code) attributable to its Altimar II ordinary shares. Altimar II does not expect that Altimar II’s cumulative earnings and profits will be material at the time of domestication. If Altimar II were to be treated as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, certain U.S. holders may be subject to adverse tax consequences as a result of the Domestication. Pursuant to a start-up exception, a corporation will not be a PFIC for the first taxable year the corporation has gross income (the “start-up year”), if (i) no predecessor of the corporation was a PFIC; (ii) the corporation satisfies the IRS that it will not be a PFIC for either of the first two taxable years following the start-up year; and (iii) the corporation is not in fact a PFIC for either of those two years. Altimar II believes, although subject to uncertainty, that Altimar II’s 2021 taxable year may be the start-up year and that Altimar II may not be treated as a PFIC for 2021. The application of the start-up exception will depend, in part, on whether the Domestication is consummated in 2021. In addition, the application of the start-up exception to the present transaction involves the application of complicated rules with respect to which there is no clear authority. Accordingly, there can be no assurance with respect to Altimar II’s status as a PFIC for 2021. All holders are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning the application of the PFIC rules to Altimar II under such holder’s particular circumstances, including the potential to make a “qualified electing fund” election or a protective “qualified electing fund” election. The requirement to qualify for the start-up exception and the potential application of the PFIC rules to the Domestication are discussed more fully under “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Holders — PFIC Considerations”.
 
    
Additionally, the Domestication may cause
non-U.S.
holders (as defined in “
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations —
Non-U.S.
Holders
” below) to become subject to U.S. federal income withholding taxes on any dividends in respect of such
non-U.S.
holder’s Fathom common stock (or warrants) subsequent to the Domestication.
 
    
The tax consequences of the Domestication are complex and will depend on a holder’s particular circumstances. All holders are strongly urged to consult their tax advisor for a full description and understanding of the tax consequences of the Domestication, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income and other tax laws. For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of the Domestication, see “
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations
”.

Q:
HOW DOES THE SPONSOR INTEND TO VOTE ON THE SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS?
 
A:
The Sponsor owns of record and is entitled to vote an aggregate of approximately 20% of the outstanding shares of Altimar ordinary shares. The Sponsor has agreed to vote any founder shares and any Class A ordinary shares held by it as of the record date in favor of the Shareholder Proposals. See “
The Business Combination Agreement — Related Agreements — Forfeiture and Support Agreement

In addition, each of Sponsor and the other Altimar II Founders agreed, among other things, (i) from the date of the Business Combination Agreement until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms, to not redeem any Class A ordinary shares (or, if applicable, shares of Class A common stock) held by it and (ii) prior to the consummation of Business Combination or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement, to vote or cause to be voted, all of the Altimar II shares beneficially owned by Sponsor or such other Founder Holder, at every meeting of the shareholders of Altimar II at which such matters are considered and at every adjournment or postponement thereof: (1) in favor of (A) the Business Combination and the Business Combination Agreement and the other transactions contemplated thereby (including any proposals recommended by Altimar II’s Board of Directors in connection with the Business Combination) and (B) any proposal to adjourn or postpone such meeting of shareholders to a later date if there are not sufficient votes to approve the Business Combination; (2) against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Altimar II under the Business Combination Agreement; and (3) against (A) any proposal or offer from any person concerning (I) a merger, consolidation, liquidation, recapitalization, share exchange or other business combination transaction involving Altimar II, or (II) the issuance or acquisition of shares of capital stock or other Altimar II equity securities (other than as contemplated or permitted by the Business Combination Agreement); and (B) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that would reasonably be expected to (x) impede the fulfillment of Altimar II’s conditions under the Business Combination Agreement or change in any manner the voting rights of any class of Altimar II’s shares or (y) result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or other obligation or agreement of Sponsor or any of the other Altimar II Founders contained in the Forfeiture and Support Agreement. See also “
Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — Forfeiture and Support Agreement

Abstentions and broker
non-votes
will be counted as present for the purpose of determining a quorum. The holders of the founder shares, who currently own approximately 20% of the issued and outstanding shares of Altimar II ordinary shares, will count towards this quorum. In the absence of a quorum, the chairman of the Special Meeting has power to adjourn the Special Meeting. As of the record date for the Special Meeting, holders of                Altimar II ordinary shares would be required to be present to achieve a quorum.
 
Q:
WHAT VOTE IS REQUIRED TO APPROVE EACH PROPOSAL AT THE SPECIAL MEETING?
 
A:
The Business Combination Proposal:
The approval of the Business Combination Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. Altimar II shareholders must approve the Business Combination Proposal in order for the Business Combination to occur. If Altimar II shareholders fail to approve the Business Combination Proposal, the Business Combination will not occur. Pursuant to the IPO Letter Agreement and as further discussed in the section entitled “
The Business Combination Agreement — Related Agreements — Forfeiture and Support Agreement

two-thirds
of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. The Organizational Documents Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Domestication Proposal, and, therefore, also conditioned on approval of the Business Combination Proposal.

The Advisory Charter Proposals:
The approval of any of the Advisory Charter Proposals is not otherwise required by Cayman Islands law or Delaware law separate and apart from the Organizational Documents Proposal, but pursuant to SEC guidance, Altimar II is required to submit these provisions to its stockholders separately for approval. However, the stockholder votes regarding these proposals are advisory votes, and are not binding on Altimar II or the Altimar II Board (separate and apart from the approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal). Furthermore, the Business Combination is not conditioned on the separate approval of the Advisory Charter Proposals (separate and apart from approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal).
The Stock Issuance Proposal:
The approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting.

Q:
DO ANY OF ALTIMAR II’S DIRECTORS OR OFFICERS HAVE INTERESTS IN THE BUSINESS COMBINATION THAT MAY DIFFER FROM OR BE IN ADDITION TO THE INTERESTS OF ALTIMAR II SHAREHOLDERS?
 
A:
Altimar II’s executive officers and certain
non-employee
directors may have interests in the Business Combination that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of Altimar II’s shareholders generally. The Altimar II board of directors was aware of and considered these interests to the extent such interests existed at the time, among other matters, in approving the Business Combination Agreement and in recommending that the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby be approved by the shareholders of Altimar II . See “
The Business Combination Proposal — Interests of Altimar II Directors and Officers in the Business Combination

Table of Contents
Q:
HOW DO I VOTE?
 
A:
If you are a shareholder of record of Altimar II as of                , 2021 (the “record date”) you may submit your proxy before the Special Meeting in any of the following ways, if available:
 
   
use the toll-free number shown on your proxy card;
 
   
visit the website shown on your proxy card to vote via the Internet; or
 
   
complete, sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed postage-paid envelope.
 
    
If you are a shareholder of record of Altimar II as of the record date, you may also cast your vote at the Special Meeting.
 
    
If your shares are held in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee, your broker, bank or other nominee will send you separate instructions describing the procedure for voting your shares. “Street name” shareholders who wish to vote at the Special Meeting will need to obtain a proxy form from their broker, bank or other nominee.
 
Q:
WHEN AND WHERE IS THE SPECIAL MEETING?
 
A:
The Special Meeting will be held on                , 2021, at                 local time. For the purposes of Altimar II’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the physical place of the meeting will be Boundary Hall, Cricket Square, Grand Cayman, KY1-1102, Cayman Islands. In light of the novel coronavirus pandemic and to support the well-being of Altimar II’s shareholders, directors and officers, Altimar II encourages you to use remote methods of attending the Special Meeting or to attend via proxy. You may attend the Special Meeting and vote your shares electronically during the Special Meeting via live webcast by visiting https://www.cstproxy.com/altimarii/2021. You will need the meeting control number that is printed on your proxy card to enter the Special Meeting. You may also attend the meeting telephonically by dialing +1 877-770-3647 (within the U.S. and Canada and toll-free) or +1 312-780-0854 (outside of the U.S. and Canada, standard rates apply). All Altimar II shareholders as of the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the Special Meeting.
 
Q:
IF MY SHARES ARE HELD IN “STREET NAME” BY A BROKER, BANK OR OTHER NOMINEE, WILL MY BROKER, BANK OR OTHER NOMINEE VOTE MY SHARES FOR ME?
 
A:
If your shares are held in “street name” in a stock brokerage account or by a broker, bank or other nominee, you must provide the record holder of your shares with instructions on how to vote your shares. Please follow the voting instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee. Please note that you may not vote shares held in “street name” by returning a proxy card directly to Altimar II or by voting at the Special Meeting unless you provide a “legal proxy”, which you must obtain from your broker, bank or other nominee. In addition to such legal proxy, if you plan to attend the Special Meeting, but are not a shareholder of record because you hold your shares in “street name”, please have evidence of your beneficial ownership of your shares (e.g., a copy of a recent brokerage statement showing the shares) and valid photo identification with you at the Special Meeting.
 
    
Under the rules of the NYSE, brokers who hold shares in “street name” for a beneficial owner of those shares typically have the authority to vote in their discretion on “routine” proposals when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. However, brokers are not permitted to exercise their voting discretion with respect to the approval of matters that the NYSE determines to be
“non-routine”
without specific instructions from the beneficial owner. It is expected that all of the Shareholder Proposals are
“non-routine”
matters. Broker

A:
If you fail to take any action with respect to the Special Meeting and the Business Combination is approved by shareholders and consummated, you will continue to be a shareholder of Altimar II. Failure to take any action with respect to the Special Meeting will not affect your ability to exercise your redemption rights.

The Private Placement
In connection with entering into the Business Combination Agreement, Altimar II and Fathom OpCo entered into the Subscription Agreements with certain institutional and other accredited investors (the “PIPE Investors”), pursuant to which, among other things, the PIPE Investors party thereto agreed to purchase an aggregate of 8,000,000 shares of Class A common stock following the Domestication and immediately prior to the Closing at a cash purchase price of $10.00 per share, resulting in aggregate proceeds of $80.0 million (the “PIPE Investment”). There are important differences between the rights of holders of shares of Class A common stock and holders of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares. See “
The Domestication Proposal—Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholders
” for a discussion of the different rights associated with holding these securities. In addition, the Altimar II Class A ordinary shares were originally sold in the Altimar II IPO as a component of the Altimar II units for $10.00 per unit. The Altimar II units consist of one Class A ordinary share and one-fourth of one redeemable Altimar II warrant.
The Subscription Agreements contain customary representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Altimar II, Fathom OpCo and the PIPE Investors and are subject to customary closing conditions (including, without limitation, that there is no amendment or modification to the Business Combination Agreement that is material and adverse to the PIPE Investors) and termination rights (including a termination right if the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements have not been consummated by December 31, 2021, other than as a result of breach by the terminating party). The PIPE Investments are expected to close immediately prior to the Closing.
For more information regarding the Private Placement and the Subscription Agreements, see the section entitled “
The Business Combination Agreement—Related Agreements—Subscription Agreement
s.” See also the Subscription Agreements substantially in the form attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as
Annex J
, as the same may be amended, modified, supplemented or waived from time to time in accordance with its terms.
Consideration to be Received in the Business Combination
The total consideration to be paid to the Fathom Blocker Owners and the Continuing Fathom Unitholders (each as defined herein), including CORE Industrial Partners Fund I, LP, at the Closing shall equal the aggregate of:
 
(a)
(i) All the cash proceeds from the Trust Account established for the purpose of holding the net proceeds of Altimar II’s initial public offering, net of any amounts paid to Altimar II’s shareholders that exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, together with the proceeds from the PIPE Investment (as defined herein) (the “Available Cash Amount”), (ii)
minus
$25,000,000 to be contributed by Altimar II to the balance sheet of Fathom OpCo, (iii)
 minus
up to $42,000,000 to be used to pay down certain indebtedness of Fathom OpCo, (iv)
 minus
certain transaction expenses of Fathom OpCo and Altimar II, which include fees and expenses of various advisors, transfer taxes, employee transaction bonuses, and filing and listing fees (the “Closing Cash Consideration”); and
 
(b)
A number of shares of Class A common stock and newly issued Class A units of Fathom OpCo (the “New Fathom Units”) (together with one share of Class B common stock to be issued at par value for cash in respect of each New Fathom Units), to be allocated as set forth on the Allocation Schedule, in an aggregate number (rounded up to the nearest whole share) equal to the quotient of (i) the result of (A) $1,200,000,000
minus
(B) the Closing Cash Consideration
divided by
(ii) $10.00 (the “Closing Seller Equity Consideration”).
The $25,000,000 to be contributed to the balance sheet of Altimar II as described in clause (a)(ii) above may be reduced with the written consent of Altimar II and Fathom. In addition, Fathom OpCo may, at its discretion, reduce the $42,000,000 of cash to be used to pay down certain indebtedness of Fathom OpCo, as described in clause (a)(iii) above, by the amount, if any, necessary to cause the Closing Cash Consideration to equal $345,000,000; provided, however, such pay-down amount may not be less than $22,000,000

Table of Contents
without the consent of Altimar II. In considering whether to agree to a reduction in (i) the Balance Sheet Contribution below $25,000,000 and (ii) the Debt Paydown Amount below $22,000,000, Fathom OpCo and Altimar II will consider a variety of factors, including whether any such reduction will facilitate the satisfaction of the Minimum Cash Condition and the closing of the Business Combination and the impact of such reductions on the Company’s liquidity, leverage, borrowing capacity under the New Credit Agreement, and ability to satisfy its expected working capital and capital expenditure needs. Fathom OpCo and Altimar II do not intend to agree to any reductions that would materially and adversely impact the ability of Fathom to satisfy such needs for the foreseeable future following the Closing. Altimar II and Fathom OpCo presently estimate that the transaction expenses described in clause (a)(iv) above will amount to approximately $59,500,000 in the aggregate.
For more information, see the section entitled “
The Business Combination Agreement—Consideration to be Received in the Business Combination
.”
Earnout
In addition to the Closing Seller Equity Consideration, an aggregate of 9,000,000 shares of Class A common stock and New Fathom Units (the “Earnout Shares”) will be issued in three equal tranches of 3,000,000 shares and allocated in accordance with the Allocation Schedule, with each tranche vesting at each of the following share price thresholds: $12.50, $15.00 and $20.00, in each case subject to the vesting and forfeiture provisions set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement (as defined herein) and Fathom’s Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (the “Fathom Operating Agreement”). The earnout period will be five years from the date of the closing of the Business Combination. The achievement of the price threshold will be determined based on a VWAP for 20 trading days within any
30-trading
day period or a change of control transaction of Fathom that implies the same per share valuation as the applicable price threshold.
For more information, see the section entitled “
The Business Combination Agreement — Earnout
.”
Allocation Schedule
The methodology to be followed in the Allocation Schedule at the Closing will provide for the payment of approximately $             of the Closing Cash Consideration to direct and indirect holders of outstanding preferred units of Fathom OpCo (including accrued but unpaid preferred distributions thereon), and will allocate the balance of the Closing Cash Consideration and the total Closing Seller Equity Consideration to direct and indirect holders of outstanding common units of Fathom OpCo, on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of outstanding common units held. The Earnout Shares will be allocated in accordance with the Allocation Schedule to the direct and indirect holders of outstanding common units of Fathom OpCo on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of outstanding common units held. The portion of the Closing Cash Consideration to be paid to direct and indirect holders of outstanding preferred units of Fathom OpCo as described above assumes, for illustration, the inclusion of accrued preferred distributions through                 , 2021. The total amount to be paid to the holders of preferred units will vary to reflect the accrued preferred distributions as of the Closing Date.
Altimar II Extraordinary Meeting and the Proposals
The Special Meeting will be held at                  a.m., Eastern Time, on,                  2021. For the purposes of Altimar II’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the physical place of the meeting will be Boundary Hall, Cricket Square, Grand Cayman,
KY1-1102,
Cayman Islands. In light of the novel coronavirus pandemic and to support the well-being of Altimar II’s shareholders, directors and officers, Altimar II encourages you to use remote methods of attending the Special Meeting or to attend via proxy. You may attend the Special Meeting and vote your shares electronically during the Special Meeting via live webcast by visiting https://www.cstproxy.com/altimarii/2021. You will need the meeting control number that is printed on your

proxy card to enter the Special Meeting. You may also attend the meeting telephonically by dialing: +1 877-770-3647 (within the U.S. and Canada and toll-free) or +1 312-780-0854 (outside of the U.S. and Canada, standard rates apply). At the Special Meeting, Altimar II’s shareholders will be asked to approve the Business Combination Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, Organizational Documents Proposal, the Advisory Charter Proposals, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Business Combination Issuance Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the ESPP Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal (if necessary).
The Altimar II board of directors has fixed the close of business on                  (the “record date”) as the record date for determining the holders of Altimar II ordinary shares entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Special Meeting. As of the record date, there were                  shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares and                  shares of Altimar II Class B ordinary shares outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. Each share of Altimar II ordinary shares entitles the holder to one vote at the Special Meeting on each proposal to be considered at the Special Meeting. As of the record date, the Sponsor and Altimar II’s directors and officers and their affiliates owned and were entitled to vote                  shares of Altimar II ordinary shares, representing approximately 20% of the shares of Altimar II ordinary shares outstanding on that date. Altimar II currently expects that the Sponsor and its directors and officers will vote their shares in favor of the Shareholder Proposals and, pursuant to the IPO Letter Agreement and the Forfeiture and Support Agreement, the Sponsor and directors and officers have agreed to do so. As of the record date, Fathom did not beneficially hold any shares of Altimar II ordinary shares.
A majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding Altimar II ordinary shares entitled to vote at the Special Meeting must be present, in person or virtually or represented by proxy, at the Special Meeting to constitute a quorum and in order to conduct business at the Special Meeting.
Approval of the Business Combination Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. Approval of the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposal and the Advisory Charter Proposals require a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. Under the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, prior to the closing of a business combination (as defined therein) only the holders of Altimar II Class B ordinary shares will be entitled to vote on the Domestication Proposal and the Organizational Documents Proposal. Approval of the Advisory Charter Proposals, Stock Issuance Proposal, the Business Combination Issuance Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the ESPP Proposal and the Adjournment Proposal (if necessary) each requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting.
The Business Combination is conditioned upon the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposal, the Stock Issuance Proposal, the Business Combination Issuance Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal and the ESPP Proposal subject to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. The Business Combination is not conditioned on the Advisory Charter Proposals or the Adjournment Proposal. If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, the other Shareholder Proposals (except the Adjournment Proposal) will not be presented to the shareholders for a vote.
Recommendation of Altimar II’s Board of Directors
Altimar II’s board of directors has unanimously determined that the Business Combination Proposal is in the best interests of Altimar II and its shareholders, has unanimously approved the Business Combination Proposal, and unanimously recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the Domestication Proposal, “FOR” the Organizational Documents Proposal, “FOR” each of the

Advisory Charter Proposals, “FOR” the Stock Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the Business Combination Issuance Proposal, “FOR” for the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, “FOR” the ESPP Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, in each case, if presented to the Special Meeting.
Altimar II ’s Board of Directors’ Reasons for Approval of the Business Combination
On July 15, 2021, the Board unanimously (i) approved the signing of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and (ii) directed that the Business Combination Agreement, related transaction documentation and other Shareholder Proposals be submitted to Altimar II’s shareholders for approval and adoption, and recommended that Altimar II’s shareholders approve and adopt the Business Combination Agreement, related transaction documentation and such other Shareholder Proposals. In light of the number and wide variety of factors considered in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination, the Board did not consider it practicable to, and did not attempt to, quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the specific factors that it considered in reaching its determination and supporting its decision. The Altimar II board of directors did not seek to obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in connection with their determination to approve the Business Combination. The Altimar II board of directors viewed its decision as being based on all of the information available and the factors presented and considered by it. In addition, individual directors may have given different weight to different factors. For more information, see the section entitled “ 
The Business Combination Agreement—Altimar Board of Directors’ Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination.
” This explanation of Altimar II’s reasons for the Business Combination and all other information presented in this section is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed under “
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
.”
Consistent with its investment philosophy and strategy, Altimar II planned to identify a high-quality business run by exceptional teams pursuing growth and large market opportunities. These criteria were not intended to be exhaustive, and the evaluation relating to the merits of Altimar II’s initial business combination would be based, to the extent relevant, on these general guidelines as well as other considerations, factors and criteria that Altimar II’s management team deemed relevant. In considering the Business Combination with Fathom OpCo, the Board concluded that it met all of the above criteria.
The Board also gave consideration to certain risks related to the Business Combination, which are described in this proxy statement/prospectus under the caption “
Risk Factors
”.
Certain Regulatory Approvals
The parties will use their respective reasonable best efforts to promptly file all notices, reports and other documents required to be filed by such party with any governmental authority with respect to the Business Combination, and to submit promptly any additional information requested by any such governmental authority. The parties will use their respective reasonable best efforts to promptly obtain all authorizations, approvals, clearances, consents, actions or
non-actions
of any governmental authority in connection with the applicable filings, applications or notifications. Each party will promptly inform the other parties of any material communication between itself or its representatives and any governmental authority regarding the Business Combination. If a party or any of its affiliates receives any request for supplemental information or documentary material from any governmental authority with respect to the Business Combination, then the party, to the extent necessary and advisable, shall provide a reasonable response to such request as promptly as reasonably practicable.
Additionally, each party’s obligation to complete the Business Combination is subject to the waiting period (and any extension thereof) applicable to the consummation of the Business Combination under the Hart–Scott–Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 having expired or been terminated.

Conditions to Closing
The Closing is subject to certain customary conditions, including, among other things: (i) the approval of the Business Combination and other matters by Altimar II’s shareholders; (ii) the expiration or termination of any applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and receipt of certain additional regulatory approvals; (iii) the Available Cash Amount (as defined herein) equaling no less than $313,000,000 at the Closing; (iv) (x) fundamental representations and warranties (which includes Organization, Due Authorization, Holding Company; Ownership and Brokers’ Fees) bring down conditions to an “all material respects” standard, (y) general representations and warranties bring down conditions to a “material adverse effect” standard and (z) capitalization representation bring down condition to a “de minimis” standard; (v) covenant bring down conditions to an “all material respects” standard; (vi) the absence of a material adverse effect on the respective parties; and (vii) the effectiveness of this registration statement and the listing of Altimar II Class A common stock to be issued in the Business Combination on the New York Stock Exchange (“
NYSE
”). To the extent permitted by law, the conditions in the Business Combination Agreement may be waived by the parties thereto.
Termination
The Business Combination Agreement may be terminated by Altimar II or Fathom OpCo under certain circumstances, including, among others, (i) by mutual written consent of Fathom OpCo and Altimar II, (ii) by Fathom OpCo or Altimar II if the Closing has not occurred on or before December 31, 2021 (the “
Outside Date
”), (iii) by Fathom OpCo or Altimar II in the case of material uncured breach by the other party to the Business Combination Agreement (subject to notice and an opportunity to cure, if curable), (iv) by Fathom OpCo if, prior to obtaining approval of Altimar II’s shareholders, Altimar II’s board of directors made a change in recommendation and (v) by Fathom OpCo or Altimar II if Altimar II has not obtained the required approval of its shareholders.
Redemption Rights
Public Shareholders may seek to redeem the public shares that they hold, regardless of whether they vote for the Business Combination, against the Business Combination or do not vote in relation to the Business Combination. Any Public Shareholder may request redemption of their public shares for a
per-share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest, less income taxes payable, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares. If a holder properly seeks redemption as described in this section and the Business Combination is consummated, the holder will no longer own these shares following the Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such holder or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to 15% or more of the shares of the public shares. Accordingly, if a Public Shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash.
Altimar II’s initial shareholders will not have redemption rights with respect to any ordinary shares owned by them, directly or indirectly.
You will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:
 
  (i)
(a) hold public shares or (b) hold units and you elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares; and

 
35

Table of Contents
  (ii)
prior to                 p.m., Eastern Time, on                  , 2021, (a) submit a written request to the transfer agent that Altimar II redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your share certificates for your public shares (if any) to the transfer agent, physically or electronically through DTC.
An Altimar II shareholder may not withdraw a redemption request once submitted to Altimar II unless the board of directors of Altimar II determines (in its sole discretion) to permit the withdrawal of such redemption request (which they may do in whole or in part). Furthermore, if a holder of a public share delivers its certificate (if any) and other redemption forms in connection with an election of its redemption and subsequently decides prior to the applicable date not to elect to exercise such rights, it may simply request that Altimar II permit the withdrawal of the redemption request and instruct its transfer agent to return the certificate (physically or electronically). The holder can make such request by contacting the transfer agent, at the address or email address listed in this proxy statement/prospectus.
If the Business Combination is not approved or completed for any reason, then Altimar II’s Public Shareholders who elected to exercise their redemption rights will not be entitled to redeem their shares. In such case, Altimar II will promptly return any shares previously delivered by public holders.
If a Public Shareholder exercises its redemption rights, then it will be exchanging its redeemed public shares for cash and will no longer own those public shares. You will be entitled to receive cash for your public shares only if you properly exercise your right to redeem the public shares that you will hold upon the Domestication, no later than the close of the vote on the Business Combination Proposal, and deliver your ordinary shares (either physically or electronically) to the transfer agent, prior to                                  5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on                 , 2021, and the Business Combination is consummated.
In order for Public Shareholders to exercise their redemption rights in respect of the Business Combination, Public Shareholders must properly exercise their right to redeem the public shares that you will hold upon the Domestication no later than the close of the vote on the Business Combination Proposal and deliver their ordinary shares (either physically or electronically) to the transfer agent, prior to                                  5:00 p.m., Eastern Time on                 , 2021. Therefore, the exercise of redemption rights occurs prior to the Domestication. For the purposes of Article 49.3 of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Altimar II and Cayman Islands law, the exercise of redemption rights shall be treated as an election to have such public shares repurchased for cash and references in this proxy statement/prospectus shall be interpreted accordingly. Immediately following the Domestication and the consummation of the Business Combination, Public Shareholders who properly exercised their redemption rights in respect of their public shares shall be paid.
No Appraisal Rights
Altimar II’s shareholders will not have appraisal rights under Cayman Islands law or otherwise in connection with the Business Combination Proposal or the other Shareholder Proposals.
Proxy Solicitation
Proxies may be solicited by mail, telephone or in person. Altimar II has engaged Innisfree M&A Incorporated to assist in the solicitation of proxies. If a shareholder grants a proxy, it may still vote its shares in person if it revokes its proxy before the Special Meeting. A shareholder also may change its vote by submitting a later-dated proxy as described in the section entitled “
The Extraordinary General Meeting — Revoking Your Proxy
.”
Interests of Altimar II Directors and Officers in the Business Combination

Table of Contents
other Shareholder Proposals, shareholders should keep in mind that the Sponsor and certain members of the board of directors and officers of Altimar II and the Sponsor, including its directors and officers, have interests in such Shareholder Proposals that are different from, or in addition to, those of Altimar II’s shareholders generally. In particular:
 
   
If Altimar II does not consummate a business combination by February 9, 2023 (unless such date is extended in accordance with the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association), it would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming all of the outstanding Class A ordinary shares for cash and, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and its board of directors, dissolving and liquidating, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In such event, the 8,625,000 Class B ordinary shares would be worthless because following the redemption of the Class A ordinary shares, Altimar II would likely have few, if any, net assets and because the holders of our Class B ordinary shares have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Class B ordinary shares if we fail to complete a Business Combination within the required period. Sponsor purchased the Class B ordinary shares prior to our initial public offering for approximately $0.003 per share. Assuming no redemptions by Altimar II Public Shareholders and therefore no forfeiture by the Altimar II Founders, the 8,625,000 shares of Class A common stock that the Altimar II Founders will hold following the Business Combination, if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had aggregate market value of $                                  based upon the closing price of $                                  per share of public share on the NYSE on                 , the record date. Given such shares will be subject to
lock-up
restrictions, we believe such shares have less value.
 
   
Sponsor purchased 9,900,000 private placement warrants, each exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, and such private placement warrants will expire and be worthless if a business combination is not consummated within 24 months of the consummation of the IPO (unless such date is extended in accordance with the Existing Organizational Documents).
 
   
Altimar II’s existing directors and officers will be eligible for continued indemnification and continued coverage under Altimar II’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination.
 
   
In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to Altimar II if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to Altimar II, or a prospective target business with which Altimar II has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of Altimar II’s initial public offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
 
   
Following consummation of the Business Combination, Sponsor, our officers and directors and their respective affiliates would be entitled to reimbursement for certain reasonable
out-of-pocket
expenses related to identifying, investigating and consummating an initial business combination, and repayment of any other loans, if any, and on such terms as to be determined by Altimar II from time to time, made by Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination. However, if Altimar II fails to consummate a business combination within the required period, Sponsor and Altimar II’s officers and directors and their respective affiliates will not have any claim against the Trust Account for reimbursement.
 
   
Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Altimar II Founders Holders will have customary registration rights, including demand, shelf and piggy-back rights, subject to cooperation and
cut-back
provisions, with respect to the shares of Fathom Class A common stock and warrants held by such parties.

the Business Combination and Altimar II —
Pre-existing
relationships between participants in the Business Combination and the related transactions or their affiliates could give rise to actual or perceived conflicts of interest in connection with the Business Combination.
CORE Investors’ Ability to Influence Fathom Management and Policies Following the Business Combination
Immediately following completion of the Business Combination, the CORE Investors will beneficially own approximately 45% of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock (or 51.5% assuming maximum redemptions by Altimar II Public Shareholders). The Class A common stock and Class B common stock generally will vote together on matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, including the election of directors. As a result, the CORE Investors will have the ability to influence our business and affairs through “negative control” rights resulting from their ownership of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock combined with certain supermajority voting provisions of the Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws, their general ability to vote on the election of directors to our board and the provisions in the Investor Rights Agreement described below.
With the Business Combination, we will enter into the Investor Rights Agreement with the CORE Investors which will provide for an initial ten-person board of directors, consisting of nine individuals to be designated by the CORE Investors, and one independent director to be mutually agreed by the CORE Investors and the Sponsor. The CORE Investors will have certain continued nomination rights for a number of directors ranging from the majority of the board of directors to one director, while they beneficially own shares of common stock in excess of certain ownership percentage of the amount owned by the CORE Investors at Closing, as determined in accordance with the Investor Rights Agreement. See “The Business Combination Agreement – Related Agreements – Investor Rights Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement” for more details with respect to the Investor Rights Agreement.
Stock Exchange Listing
We expect to list the shares of Fathom Class A common stock and warrants to purchase shares of Class A common stock on the NYSE under the proposed symbols “FATH” and “FATH.WS,” respectively.
Sources and Uses of Funds
The following tables summarize the estimated sources and uses for funding the Business Combination assuming (i) that none of Altimar II’s outstanding Class A ordinary shares are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination (“No Redemptions”) and (ii) that 34.5 million outstanding Class A ordinary shares are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination (representing all the outstanding Public Shares (“Maximum Redemptions”)). The number of Class A ordinary shares redeemable assuming Maximum Redemptions assumes that the per share Redemption Price is $10.00; the actual per share Redemption Price will be equal to the pro rata portion of the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

The Maximum Redemption scenario assumes that Altimar II’s Public Shareholders redeem 11,200,000 shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares, the maximum number of shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares that may be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account that would still allow Altimar II to satisfy the condition precedent in the Business Combination Agreement that as of immediately prior to the Business Combination, Altimar II have an Available Cash Amount of at least $313 million. This calculation assumes that the full $80 million in aggregate proceeds are received from the PIPE Investment and that the amount in the Trust Account (prior to any redemptions) is equal to $345 million (the approximate amount in the Trust Account as of June 30, 2021), resulting in an aggregate redemption payment (based on an estimated redemption price per share of approximately $10) of $112 million and available Trust Account proceeds at closing of approximately $233 million. This Maximum Redemption scenario results in the following adjustments to (i) the consideration payable at closing and (ii) the number of Forfeited Shares:
 
   
Existing Fathom Owner Consideration
: A reduction to the amount of the Closing Cash Consideration of $112 million, such that the Closing Cash Consideration will be equal to $206 million (assuming the Balance Sheet Contribution is $25 million and the Debt Pay-Down Amount is equal to $22 million), and a corresponding increase in the number of shares of Class A common stock and New Fathom Units that comprise the Closing Seller Equity Consideration equal to 11,200,000 (equal to the amount by which Closing Cash Consideration is reduced in this scenario divided by $10), such that the Closing Seller Equity Consideration will be an aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock equal to 99,400,000.
 
   
Forfeited Shares
: Under a Maximum Redemption scenario in which 11,200,000 shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares are redeemed, the Altimar II Founders will forfeit 968,750 shares of Class C common stock calculated pursuant to the terms of the Forfeiture and Support Agreement and the Business Combination Agreement. The Maximum Redemption Scenario results in an Altimar II Stock Redemption Ratio of 0.32, which is the quotient of (A) the number of shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares redeemed in the Altimar II Stock Redemption divided by (B) 34,500,000. This Altimar II Stock Redemption Ratio results in a Redemption Forfeiture Ratio of approximately 11.23%, as defined in the Business Combination Agreement, which is multiplied by the total aggregate number of then issued and outstanding shares of Altimar II Class C common stock immediately following the Domestication which is 8,625,000, resulting in 968,750 shares of Class C common stock forfeited by the Altimar II Founders.
For additional information, including the assumptions underlying the no redemptions and maximum redemptions scenarios presented above, see “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”
Accounting Treatment of the Business Combination
The Business Combination will be accounted for using the acquisition method under the provisions of ASC 805, with Fathom being considered the acquiring entity and Fathom OpCo being considered the acquiree. For accounting purposes, the acquirer is the entity that has obtained control of another entity and thus, consummated a business combination. The determination of whether control has been obtained begins with the evaluation of

 
39

Table of Contents
whether control should be evaluated based on the variable interest or voting interest model pursuant to ASC 810. As defined by U.S. GAAP, if the acquiree is a variable interest entity, the primary beneficiary would always be the accounting acquirer. Fathom OpCo meets the definition of a variable interest entity and Fathom, which will be the managing member, has been determined to be the primary beneficiary. As a result, Fathom is considered to be the accounting acquirer.
Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholder Rights
Following the consummation of the Business Combination, the rights of Altimar II shareholders who become Fathom stockholders in the Business Combination will no longer be governed by Altimar II’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Existing Organizational Documents”) and instead will be governed by the Proposed Charter and the Proposed Bylaws of Fathom. See “
The Domestication Proposal — Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholders
.”
Summary of Risk Factors
You should consider carefully all of the risks described below, together with the other information contained in this proxy statement/prospectus, before voting on the Shareholder Proposals. For purposes of the below summary of risk factors, “we” and “our” refers to Fathom OpCo or Fathom, as the context may require. Such risks include, but are not limited to:
 
   
We are subject to risks related to the ongoing
COVID-19
pandemic;
 
   
We may be subject to cybersecurity risks and changes to data protection regulation;
 
   
We face increasing competition in many aspects of our business;
 
   
We may not realize the anticipated benefits of our business acquisitions, and any acquisition, strategic relationship, joint venture or investment could disrupt our business and harm our operating results and financial condition;
 
   
If we are unable to manage our growth and expand our operations successfully, our reputation, brands, business and results of operations may be harmed;
 
   
Our success depends on our ability to deliver
on-demand
manufacturing capabilities and custom parts that meet the needs of our customers and to effectively respond to changes in our industry;
 
   
Our failure to meet our customers’ expectations regarding quick turnaround time, price or quality could adversely affect our business and results of operations;
 
   
We are subject to risks related to our dependency on our key management members and other key personnel, as well as attracting, retaining and developing qualified personnel in a highly competitive talent market;
 
   
The Proposed Charter will not limit the ability of the CORE Investors and their affiliates to compete with us;
 
   
Through their ownership of our common stock, “negative control” rights and their rights to nominate directors to our board under the Investor Rights Agreement, the CORE Investors will have substantial influence over our management and policies;
 
   
We are subject to risks related to our dependency on Fathom OpCo to pay dividends, taxes, make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement and pay other expenses;
 
   
We may be subject to litigation risks and may face liabilities and damage to our professional reputation as a result;
 
   
Our businesses are subject to extensive domestic and foreign regulations that may subject us to significant costs and compliance requirements;

 
40

Table of Contents
   
We are subject to risks related to effectuating the Domestication including potentially adverse tax consequences and less favorable shareholder rights under the DGCL than under Cayman Islands Law;
 
   
We are subject to risks related to the Tax Receivable Agreement;
 
   
We may be subject to risks related to our status as an emerging growth company within the meaning of the Securities Act;
 
   
In the event that the CORE Investors own more than 50% of Fathom’s outstanding common stock as a result of the Business Combination, we would be subject to the risks related to Fathom being categorized as a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NYSE listing standards;
 
   
Because the Company will become a publicly traded company by means other than a traditional underwritten initial public offering, the Company’s stockholders may face additional risks and uncertainties;
 
   
Altimar II and Fathom OpCo are subject to risks that may prevent the consummation and completion of the Business Combination, including the approval of each Condition Precedent Proposal, the failure to meet closing conditions and the failure of the PIPE Investment to close;
 
   
Some of Altimar II’s officers and directors may have conflicts of interest that may influence or have influenced them to support or approve the Business Combination without regard to your interests or in determining whether Fathom is appropriate for Altimar II’s initial business combination;
 
   
Pre-existing
relationships between participants in the Business Combination and the related transactions or their affiliates could give rise to actual or perceived conflicts of interest in connection with the Business Combination;
 
   
If third parties bring claims against Altimar II, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per share redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.00 per share;
 
   
You may only be able to exercise your Public Warrants on a “cashless basis” under certain circumstances, and if you do so, you will receive fewer Class A common stock from such exercise than if you were to exercise such warrants for cash;
 
   
The grant of registration rights to certain of our investors and the future exercise of such rights may adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock;
 
   
We may have been a PFIC, which could result in adverse United States federal income tax consequences to U.S. investors;
 
   
We may amend the terms of the warrants in a manner that may be adverse to holders of Public Warrants with the approval by the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding Public Warrants. As a result, the exercise price of the warrants could be increased, the exercise period could be shortened and the number of Class A ordinary shares purchasable upon exercise of a warrant could be decreased, all without approval of each warrant affected;
 
   
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could result in our failure to accurately or timely report our financial condition or results of operations which could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price; and
 
   
The compliance obligations of Altimar II and us under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act require substantial financial and management resources, and increase the time and costs of completing an acquisition.
Recent Developments
Fathom OpCo’s Preliminary Unaudited Estimate of Revenue for the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021
Fathom OpCo expects to report revenue for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 in the range of $
117.8
million to $
118.6
 million. Fathom OpCo is only presenting a preliminary estimated range of revenue at this time,

Table of Contents
and it is not presenting its full financial results for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Furthermore, this preliminary estimated range of revenue is based upon Fathom OpCo management’s estimates and information currently available to Fathom OpCo management and is subject to revision based upon, among other things, Fathom OpCo’s financial closing procedures, final adjustments, and other developments that may arise prior to the time its financial results for the period ended September 30, 2021 are finalized. Fathom OpCo’s preliminary estimated range of revenue is therefore a forward-looking statement based solely on information available to Fathom OpCo as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus and Fathom OpCo’s actual reported revenue may differ materially from the amounts included in this preliminary estimated range of revenue. The preliminary estimated range of revenue has been prepared by, and is the responsibility of, Fathom OpCo’s management and is based on a number of assumptions. Neither Fathom OpCo’s independent auditors nor any other independent accountants, have audited, reviewed, complied, examined, or performed any procedures with respect to this preliminary estimated range of revenue, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or its achievability, and assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, this preliminary estimated range of revenue. This preliminary estimated range of revenue should not be viewed as a substitute for full financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. You should not place undue reliance on this preliminary estimated range of revenue. In addition, this preliminary estimated range of revenue is not necessarily indicative of the results we may achieve in any future periods. See “

” and “
Fathom OpCo’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
” for additional information regarding factors that could result in differences between this preliminary estimated range of revenue and the actual revenue that Fathom OpCo will report for the nine months ended September 30, 2021. See also “

” together with the consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus for additional information regarding Fathom OpCo’s historical financial results.
Emerging Growth Company
Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a registration statement under the Securities Act declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to
non-emerging
growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of Altimar II’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of Altimar II’s IPO, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common equity that is held by
non-affiliates
exceeds $700 million as of the end of the prior fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.00 billion in
non-convertible
debt securities during the prior three-year period. References herein to “emerging growth company” have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

Includes adjustments for other non-recurring, non-operating, and non-cash costs related primarily to integration costs for new acquisitions, severance, and charges for the increase of fair value of inventory related to acquisitions, and management fees paid to Fathom OpCo’s previous owners.
Fathom OpCo management uses Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate Fathom OpCo’s core operating performance and trends, and to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and new investments. We believe Adjusted EBITDA is useful in evaluating our operating performance, as they are similar to measures reported by our public competitors and are regularly used by security analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. Adjusted EBITDA is not intended to be a substitute for any U.S. GAAP financial measure and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry.

SUMMARY UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED
FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF FATHOM OPCO
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presents the combination of the financial information of Altimar Acquisition Corp. II (“Altimar II”) and Fathom Holdco, LLC (“Fathom OpCo”), adjusted to give effect to the Business Combination, the acquisitions of Incodema, Dahlquist, Majestic Metals, Mark Two, Newchem, and GPI completed in 2020 (collectively, the “2020 Acquisitions”) as discussed in further detail in Note 3 – Business Combination in the Fathom Holdco LLC Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and the acquisitions of Summit, Centex, Laser, Micropulse West and PPC completed in 2021 (collectively, the “2021 Acquisitions”) as discussed in further detail in Note 20 in the Fathom Holdco LLC Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation
S-X.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 combines the historical statements of operations of Altimar II and Fathom OpCo, and gives effect to the 2020 Acquisitions and the 2021 Acquisitions for such period on a pro forma basis as if the Business Combination and the 2020 Acquisitions and 2021 Acquisitions had been consummated and completed on January 1, 2020, the beginning of the period presented. The unaudited condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 gives effect to the Business Combination as if it had been completed on June 30, 2021. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations would have been had the Business Combination, the 2020 Acquisitions and the 2021 Acquisitions taken place on January 1, 2020, nor are they indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of Fathom Digital Manufacturing Corporation (“Fathom”), the post-combination company.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been developed from and should be read in conjunction with:
 
   
the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements;
 
   
the historical audited financial statements of Altimar II for the period from inception (December 7, 2020) through December 31, 2020 and related notes, found elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus;
 
   
the historical audited financial statements of Fathom OpCo for the year ended December 31, 2020, found elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus;
 
   
the historical combined audited financial statements of Incodema and Newchem for the year ended December 31, 2019, found elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus;
 
   
the historical audited financial statements of Dahlquist for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, found elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus;
 
   
the historical audited financial statements of Majestic Metals for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, found elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus; and
 
   
other information relating to Altimar II and Fathom OpCo contained in this proxy statement/prospectus, including the Business Combination Agreement and the description of certain terms thereof set forth in the section entitled “The Business Combination.”
Notwithstanding the legal form of the business combination pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Business Combination will be accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations, using the acquisition method. For accounting purposes, the acquirer is the entity that has obtained control of another entity and, thus, consummated a business combination. The determination of whether control has been obtained begins with the evaluation of whether control should be evaluated based on the variable interest or voting interest model

 
46

Table of Contents
pursuant to ASC Topic 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). In all redemption scenarios, Fathom has been determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following factors:
 
   
Fathom OpCo is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). Fathom will be the sole managing member and primary beneficiary who has full and complete charge of all affairs of Fathom OpCo, and the Class A units of Fathom OpCo do not have substantive participating or kick out rights; and
 
   
No single party controls Fathom pre and post transaction, hence, the Business Combination is not considered a common control transaction.
The factors discussed above support the conclusion that Fathom will acquire a controlling financial interest in Fathom OpCo and will be the accounting acquirer. Fathom is the primary beneficiary of Fathom OpCo, which is a VIE, since it has the power to direct the activities of Fathom OpCo that most significantly impact Fathom OpCo’s economic performance through its role as the sole managing member of Fathom OpCo, and Fathom’s variable interests in Fathom OpCo include ownership of Fathom OpCo, which results in the right (and obligation) to receive benefits (and absorb losses) of Fathom OpCo that could potentially be significant to Fathom OpCo. Therefore, the Business Combination will be accounted for using the acquisition method. Under this method of accounting, Fathom is treated as the acquirer and Fathom OpCo is treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the assets and liabilities of Fathom OpCo will be recognized at fair value, and any consideration in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired (including identifiable intangible assets) will be recognized as goodwill.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the assumptions below with respect to the potential redemption into cash of Altimar II’s Public Shares:
 
   
Assuming No Redemptions
: This “minimum scenario” presentation assumes that none of the 34,500,000 Public Shares outstanding as of the record date are redeemed by Altimar II’s Public Shareholders.
 
   
Assuming Maximum Redemptions
: This presentation assumes that Altimar II’s Public Shareholders redeem 11,200,000 shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares, the maximum number of shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares that may be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account that would still allow Altimar II to satisfy the condition precedent in the Business Combination Agreement that as of immediately prior to the Business Combination, Altimar II have an Available Cash Amount of at least $313 million. This calculation assumes that the full $80 million in aggregate proceeds are received from the PIPE Investment and that the amount in the Trust Account (prior to any redemptions) is equal to $345 million (approximately the amount in the Trust Account as of June 30, 2021), resulting in an aggregate redemption payment (based on an estimated redemption price per share of approximately $10) of $112 million and available Trust Account proceeds at closing of approximately $233 million. This scenario results in the following adjustments to (i) the consideration payable at closing and (ii) the number of Forfeited Shares:
 
   
Fathom OpCo Owner Consideration
: A reduction to the amount of the Closing Cash Consideration of $112 million, such that the Closing Cash Consideration will be equal to $206 million (assuming the Balance Sheet Contribution is $25 million and the Debt
Pay-Down
Amount is equal to $22 million), and a corresponding increase in the number of shares of Class A common stock and New Fathom Units that comprise the Closing Seller Equity Consideration equal to 11,200,000 (equal to the amount by which Closing Cash Consideration is reduced in this scenario divided by $10), such that the Closing Seller Equity Consideration will be an aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock equal to 99,400,000.
 
   
Forfeited Shares
: Under a Maximum Redemption scenario in which 11,200,000 shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares are redeemed, the Altimar II Founders will forfeit 968,750 shares of Class C common stock calculated pursuant to the terms of the Forfeiture and Support

Table of Contents
 
Agreement and the Business Combination Agreement. The Maximum Redemption Scenario results in an Altimar II Stock Redemption Ratio of 0.32, which is the quotient of (A) the number of shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares redeemed in the Altimar II Stock Redemption divided by (B) 34,500,000. This Altimar II Stock Redemption Ratio results in a Redemption Forfeiture Ratio of approximately 11.23%, as defined in the Business Combination Agreement, which is multiplied by the total aggregate number of then issued and outstanding shares of Altimar II Class C common stock immediately following the Domestication which is 8,625,000, resulting in 968,750 shares of Class C common stock forfeited by the Altimar II Founders.

The table below presents our
Non-GAAP
Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA reconciled to pro forma net loss, the closest U.S. GAAP measure, for the period indicated.
Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP performance measure presented to supplement our pro forma operating results prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which we believe is useful in evaluating our pro forma operating performance presented above. Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, here prepared to give effect to the 2020 Acquisitions and 2021 Acquisitions as if they had been completed on January 1, 2020 is not intended to be a substitute for any U.S. GAAP financial measure and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measure of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry. We define and calculate Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA as pro forma net losses before the impact of interest income or expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for the following items: stock-based compensation, transaction-related costs, and certain other non-cash and non-core items, as described in the reconciliation below:

COMPARATIVE HISTORICAL AND UNAUDITED PRO FORMA
PER SHARE FINANCIAL INFORMATION
The following table sets forth historical comparative per share information of Fathom OpCo, on a stand-alone basis, and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined per share information after giving effect to the Business Combination, assuming No Redemptions and Maximum Redemptions, respectively.
The historical information should be read in conjunction with the sections of this proxy statement/prospectus entitled “Fathom OpCo’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Altimar II’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” as well as the historical financial statements and related notes thereto of each of Altimar II and Fathom OpCo included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined per share information is derived from, and should be read in conjunction with, the information contained in the section of this proxy statement/prospectus entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”
The unaudited pro forma combined share information does not purport to represent what the actual results of operations of Fathom OpCo would have been had the Business Combination been completed or to project Fathom OpCo’s results of operations that may be achieved after the Business Combination. The unaudited pro forma combined net income per share information below does not purport to represent what the actual results of operations of Fathom OpCo would have been had the Business Combination been completed or to project Fathom OpCo’s results of operations that may be achieved after the Business Combination. The unaudited pro forma shareholders’ equity per share information below does not purport to represent what the value of Altimar II equity and Fathom OpCo equity would have been had the Business Combination been completed nor the shareholders’ equity per share for any future date or period.
The following table sets forth:
 
   
Historical per share information of Altimar II for period from inception (December 7, 2020) through December 31, 2020;
 
   
Historical per share information of Fathom OpCo for the year ended December 31, 2020; and
 
   
Unaudited pro forma per share information of the combined company for the year ended December 31, 2020 after giving effect to the Business Combination, assuming the redemption scenarios as follows:
 
   
Assuming No Redemptions
: The “No Redemptions” scenario assumes that no Altimar II Public Shareholders elect to redeem their shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares for a pro rata portion of the proceeds on deposit in the Trust Account, and thus the full amount held in the Trust Account as of the date of closing is available for the Business Combination; and
 
   
Assuming Interim Low Redemptions
: This presentation assumes that Public Shareholders holding 2,800,000 shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares will exercise redemption rights with respect to their Public Shares for a pro rata share (approximately $10.00 per share) of the funds in the Trust Account.
 
   
Assuming Interim High Redemptions
: This presentation assumes that Public Shareholders holding 8,400,000 shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares will exercise redemption rights with respect to their Public Shares for a pro rata share (approximately $10.00 per share) of the funds in the Trust Account.

Assuming Maximum Redemptions
: This presentation assumes that Altimar II’s Public Shareholders redeem 11,200,000 shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares, the maximum number of shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares that may be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account that would still allow Altimar II to satisfy the condition precedent in the Business Combination Agreement that as of immediately prior to the Business Combination, Altimar II have an Available Cash Amount of at least $313 million. This calculation assumes that the full $80 million in aggregate proceeds are received from the PIPE Investment and that the amount in the Trust Account (prior to any redemptions) is equal to $345 million (the amount in the Trust Account as of June 30, 2021), resulting in an aggregate redemption payment (based on an estimated redemption price per share of approximately $10) of $112 million and available Trust Account proceeds at closing of approximately $233 million.

Dividend Policy
Altimar II has not paid any cash dividends on its ordinary shares to date and does not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of the Business Combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon Fathom’s revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition subsequent to completion of the Business Combination. The payment of any cash dividends subsequent to the Business Combination will be within the discretion of Fathom’s board of directors at such time. Fathom’s ability to declare dividends may also be limited by restrictive covenants pursuant to any debt financing.
Fathom OpCo
Historical market price information for Fathom OpCo’s membership interests is not provided because there is no public market for any membership interest of Fathom OpCo.

RISK FACTORS
In addition to the other information contained in this proxy statement/prospectus, the following risks have the potential to impact the business and operations of Fathom and Fathom OpCo. These risk factors are not necessarily exhaustive. We may face additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to us, or that we presently assess to be immaterial, which may also impair our business, financial condition or prospects. All investors are encouraged to perform their own investigation with respect to the business, financial condition and prospects of Fathom and the Business Combination. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references in this “Risk Factors” section to “Fathom,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” and other similar terms refer to Fathom and its consolidated subsidiaries, including Fathom OpCo and each of its subsidiaries, after giving effect to the Business Combination.
Risks Related to Our Business Following the Business Combination
Following the Business Combination, the Company will be a holding company with no direct operations that relies on dividends, distributions, loans and other payments, advances and transfers of funds from Fathom OpCo to pay dividends, pay expenses and meet its other obligations. Accordingly, the Company’s securityholders will be subject to all of the risks of Fathom OpCo’s business following the Business Combination. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this section to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to Fathom OpCo’s business prior to the completion of the Business Combination, which will be the business of the combined company following the completion of the Business Combination. Accordingly, the risks described below relating to Fathom OpCo could also materially and adversely affect the combined company after the completion of the Business Combination.
Business Risks
We face significant competition and expect to face increasing competition in many aspects of our business, which could cause our operating results to suffer.
The digital manufacturing industry in which we operate is fragmented and highly competitive. We compete for customers with a wide variety of custom parts manufacturers and methods. Some of our current and potential competitors include captive
in-house
production capabilities, other custom parts manufacturers, brokers of custom parts and additive manufacturing vendors, including those utilizing 3D printing processes. Moreover, some of our existing and potential competitors are researching, designing, developing and marketing other types of products and manufacturing capabilities. We also expect that future competition may arise from the development or improvement of allied or related techniques for digital manufacturing, including from the issuance of patents to other companies that may inhibit our ability to compete effectively. Furthermore, our competitors may attempt to adopt and improve upon key aspects of our business model, such as development of technology that automates much of the manual labor conventionally required to quote and manufacture custom parts, implementation of interactive
web-based
and automated user interface and quoting systems and/or building scalable operating models specifically designed for efficient custom parts production. Third-party CAD software companies may develop software that mold-makers, injection molders and CNC machine shops could use to compete with our business model. Additive manufacturers may develop stronger, higher temperature resins or introduce other improvements that could more effectively compete with us on part quality. We may also, from time to time, establish alliances or relationships with other competitors or potential competitors, including 3D printer OEMs. To the extent companies terminate such relationships and establish alliances and relationships with our competitors, our business could be harmed.
Existing and potential competitors may have substantially greater financial, technical, marketing and sales, manufacturing, distribution and other resources and name recognition than us, as well as experience and expertise in intellectual property rights, any of which may enable them to compete effectively against us. For example, a number of companies that possess substantial resources have announced that they are beginning digital manufacturing initiatives, which will further strengthen the competition we face.

Though we plan to continue to expend resources to develop new technologies, processes and manufacturing capabilities, we cannot assure you that we will be able to maintain our current competitive position or continue to compete successfully against current and future sources of competition. Our challenge in developing new business opportunities is identifying custom parts for which our automated quotation and digital manufacturing processes offer an attractive value proposition, and we may not be able to identify any new custom parts categories with favorable economics similar to our existing offerings. If we do not keep pace with technological change, demand for our offerings may decline and our operating results may suffer.
Our success depends on our ability to deliver
on-demand
manufacturing capabilities and custom parts that meet the needs of our customers and to effectively respond to changes in our industry.
We derive almost all of our revenue from the manufacture and sale to our customers of quick-turn, low volume custom parts for prototyping, support of internal manufacturing and limited quantity product release up to mid volume production requirements. Our business has been and, we believe, will continue to be, affected by changes in our customers’ new product and product line introductions, requirements and preferences, rapid technological change and the emergence of new standards and practices, any of which could render our technology and manufacturing capabilities less attractive, uneconomical or obsolete. To the extent that our customers’ need for quick-turn to
mid-volume
production parts decreases significantly for any reason, it would likely have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results and harm our competitive position. In addition, CAD simulation and other technologies may reduce the demand for physical prototype parts. Therefore, we believe that to remain competitive, we must continually expend resources to enhance and improve our technology and manufacturing capabilities.
In particular, we plan to increase our research and development efforts and to continue to focus a significant portion of those efforts to further develop our technology in areas such as our interactive project management platform and manufacturing processes, technology offerings and broaden the range of parts that we are able to manufacture. We believe successful execution of this part of our business plan is critical for our ability to compete in our industry and grow our business, and there are no guarantees we will be able to do so in a timely fashion, or at all. Broadening the range of parts and technologies that we are able to manufacture is of particular importance because limitations in manufacturability are the primary reason we are not able to fulfill many quotation requests. There are no guarantees that the resources we devote to executing on this aspect of our business plan will improve our business and operating results or result in increased demand for our custom parts and manufacturing capabilities. Failures in this area could adversely impact our operating results and harm our reputation and brands. Even if we are successful in executing in this area, our industry is subject to rapid and significant technological change, and our competitors may develop new technologies and manufacturing capabilities that are superior to ours.
Any failure to properly meet the needs of our customers or respond to changes in our industry on a cost-effective and timely basis, or at all, would likely have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results and harm our competitive position.
Our failure to meet our customers’ expectations regarding quick turnaround time, price or quality could adversely affect our business and results of operations.
We believe many of our customers are facing increased pressure from global competitors to be first to market with their finished products, often resulting in a need for quick turnaround of custom parts. We believe our ability to quickly quote, manufacture and ship custom parts has been an important factor in our results to date. There are no guarantees we will be able to meet customers’ increasing expectations regarding quick turnaround time. If we fail to meet our customers’ expectations regarding turnaround time in any given period, our business and results of operations will likely suffer.
Demand for our custom parts and manufacturing capabilities is sensitive to price. We believe our competitive pricing has been an important factor in our results to date. Therefore, changes in our pricing
 
55

Table of Contents
strategies can have a significant impact on our business and ability to generate revenue. Many factors, including our production and personnel costs and our competitors’ pricing and marketing strategies, can significantly impact our pricing strategies. If we fail to meet our customers’ price expectations in any given period, demand for our custom parts and manufacturing capabilities could be negatively impacted and our business and results of operations could suffer.
Most of our customers have a need for specific quality of quick-turn,
on-demand
custom parts. We believe our ability to create parts meeting our customers’ specifications and quality expectations is an important factor in our results to date. We cannot assure you that we will be able to continue to consistently manufacture custom parts that achieve the production specifications and quality that our customer expect. If we fail to meet our customers’ specifications and quality expectations in any given period, demand for our custom parts and manufacturing capabilities could be negatively impacted and our business and results of operations could suffer.
The strength of our brands is important to our business, and any failure to maintain and enhance our brands would hurt our ability to retain and expand our customer base as well as further penetrate existing customers.
Because our custom parts and manufacturing capabilities are sold primarily through our website, the success of our business depends upon our ability to attract new and repeat customers to our website in order to increase business and grow our revenue. Customer awareness and the perceived value of our brands will depend largely on the success of our marketing efforts, as well as our ability to consistently provide quality custom parts within the required timeframes and positive customer experiences, which we may not do successfully. A primary component of our business strategy is the continued promotion and strengthening of our brands. We may choose to increase our branding expense materially, but we cannot be sure that this investment will be profitable. If we are unable to successfully maintain and enhance our brands, this could have a negative impact on our business and ability to generate revenue.
Sales efforts to large customers involve risks that may not be present or that are present to a lesser extent with respect to sales to smaller organizations.
Attracting and retaining business from large enterprise customers is an element of our business strategy. Sales to large customers involve risks that may not be present or that are present to a lesser extent with sales to smaller organizations, such as longer sales cycles, more complex customer requirements, substantial upfront sales costs, less predictability in completing some of our sales and extended payment terms. A number of factors influence the length and variability of our sales cycle, including the need to educate potential customers about the uses and benefits of our platform, the various technologies available and manufacturing capabilities, the longer period of time for large customers to evaluate and test our project management platform prior to making a purchase decision and placing an order, the discretionary nature of purchasing and budget cycles and the competitive nature of evaluation and purchasing approval processes. As a result, the length of our sales cycle, from identification of the opportunity to deal closure, may vary significantly from customer to customer, with sales to large enterprises typically taking longer to complete. Moreover, larger organizations may demand more customization, which would increase our upfront investment in the sales effort with no guarantee that these customers will seek to use our manufacturing capabilities widely enough across their organization to justify our substantial upfront investment. A portion of these customers may purchase our offerings on payment terms, requiring us to assume a credit risk for
non-payment
in the ordinary course of business. If we fail to effectively manage these risks associated with sales to large customers, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be affected.
Our business depends in part on our ability to process a large volume of new custom part designs from a diverse group of customers and successfully identify significant opportunities for our business based on those submissions.
We believe the volume of new custom part designs we process and the size and diversity of our customer base give us valuable insight into the needs of our prospective customers. We utilize this industry knowledge to
 
56

Table of Contents
determine where we should focus our development resources. If the number of new custom part designs we process or the size and diversity of our customer base decrease, our ability to successfully identify significant opportunities for our business and meet the needs of customers could be negatively impacted. In addition, even if we do continue to process a large number of new custom part designs and work with a significant and diverse customer base, there are no guarantees that any industry knowledge we extract from those interactions will be successfully utilized to help us identify significant business opportunities or better understand the needs of our existing or prospective customers.
Wage increases and pressure in certain geographies may prevent us from sustaining our competitive advantage and may reduce our profit margin.
Measures are being taken in the United States and globally to increase minimum wages, and there is a shortage of skilled labor in certain locations leading to increased wage pressure. Similarly, with an increased global focus on environmental, social and corporate-governance concerns and sustainability, input costs have been steadily rising. In addition, enhanced federally subsidized unemployment benefits during the ongoing
COVID-19
pandemic may have been contributing to labor shortages at some of our facilities. Accordingly, we may need to increase the levels of labor compensation more rapidly than in the past to remain competitive in attracting and retaining the quality and amount of labor that our business requires. To the extent that we are not able to control or share wage increases, wage increases may reduce our margins and cash flows, which could adversely affect our business.
The loss of one or more key members of our management team or personnel, or our failure to attract, integrate and retain additional personnel in the future, could harm our business and negatively affect our ability to successfully grow our business.
We are highly dependent upon the continued service and performance of the key members of our management team and other personnel. The loss of any of these individuals, each of whom is “at will” and may terminate his or her employment relationship with us at any time, could disrupt our operations and significantly delay or prevent the achievement of our business objectives. We believe that our future success will also depend in part on our continued ability to identify, hire, train and motivate qualified personnel. High demand exists for senior management and other key personnel (including technical, engineering, product, finance and sales personnel) in the digital manufacturing industry. A possible shortage of qualified individuals in the regions where we operate might require us to pay increased compensation to attract and retain key employees, thereby increasing our costs. In addition, we face intense competition for qualified individuals from numerous companies, many of whom have substantially greater financial and other resources and name recognition than us. We may be unable to attract and retain suitably qualified individuals who are capable of meeting our growing operational, managerial and other requirements, or we may be required to pay increased compensation in order to do so. For example, our failure to attract and retain shop floor employees may inhibit our ability to fulfill production orders for our customers. Our failure to attract, hire, integrate and retain qualified personnel could impair our ability to achieve our business objectives.
All of our employees are
at-will
employees, meaning that they may terminate their employment relationship with us at any time, and their knowledge of our business and industry would be extremely difficult to replace. We generally enter into
non-competition
agreements with our employees and certain consultants. These agreements prohibit our employees and applicable consultants from competing directly with us or working for our competitors or customers while they work for us, and in some cases, for a limited period after they cease working for us. We may be unable to enforce these agreements under the laws of the jurisdictions in which our employees and applicable consultants work and it may be difficult for us to restrict our competitors from benefiting from the expertise that our former employees or consultants developed while working for us. If we cannot demonstrate that our legally protectable interests will be harmed, we may be unable to prevent our competitors from benefiting from the expertise of our former employees or consultants and our ability to remain competitive may be diminished.

Our growth strategy relies on business acquisitions. We may not realize the anticipated benefits of such acquisitions, and any acquisition, strategic relationship, joint venture or investment could disrupt our business and harm our operating results and financial condition.
Our business and customer base have been built in part through organic growth, but also through acquisitions of businesses that increase market share in our current markets or expand into other markets, or broaden our technology, intellectual property or product line capabilities. We have completed 13 acquisitions during the last three years, and we intend to continue to aggressively pursue attractive opportunities to enhance or expand our offerings through acquisitions, strategic relationships, joint ventures or investments that we believe may allow us to implement our growth strategy. For example, in December 2019, we acquired ICOMold to enable us to expand our existing SEO and SEM capabilities; during 2020 and 2021 to date, we completed six acquisitions that added CNC machining to our manufacturing capabilities, and three acquisitions that added precision sheet metal fabrication to our offerings. We cannot forecast the number, timing or size of any future acquisitions or other similar strategic transactions, or the effect that any such transactions might have on our operating or financial results. We may not be able to successfully identify future acquisition opportunities or complete any such acquisitions if we cannot reach agreement on commercially favorable terms, if we lack sufficient resources to finance the transaction on our own and cannot obtain financing at a reasonable cost or if regulatory authorities prevent such transactions from being completed.
Although we have substantial experience engaging in these types of transactions, such transactions may be complex, time consuming and expensive, and may present numerous challenges and risks including:
 
   
an acquired company, asset or technology not furthering our business strategy as anticipated;
 
   
difficulties entering and competing in new product or geographic markets and increased competition, including price competition;
 
   
integration challenges;
 
   
challenges in working with strategic partners and resolving any related disagreements or disputes;
 
   
high valuation for a company, asset or technology, or changes in the economic or market conditions or assumptions underlying our decision to make an acquisition;
 
   
significant problems or liabilities associated with acquired businesses, assets or technologies, including increased intellectual property and employment-related litigation exposure;
 
   
acquisition of a significant amount of goodwill, which could result in future impairment charges that would reduce our earnings; and
 
   
requirements to record substantial charges and amortization expense related to certain purchased intangible assets, deferred stock compensation and other items, as well as other charges or expenses.
Any one of these challenges or risks could impair our ability to realize any benefit from our acquisitions, strategic relationships, joint ventures or investments after we have expended resources on them, as well as divert our management’s attention. Any failure to successfully address these challenges or risks could disrupt our business and harm our operating results and financial condition. Moreover, any such transaction may not be viewed favorably by investors or other stakeholders.
If we proceed with a particular acquisition, we may have to use cash, issue new equity securities with dilutive effects on existing stockholders, incur indebtedness, assume contingent liabilities, or amortize assets or expenses in a manner that might have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. Acquisitions will also require us to record certain acquisition-related costs and other items as current period expenses, which would have the effect of reducing our reported earnings in the period in which an acquisition is consummated. In addition, we could also face unknown liabilities or write-offs due to our acquisitions, which could result in a significant charge to our earnings in the period in which they occur. We will also be required to record any goodwill or other long-lived asset impairment charges in the periods in which they occur, which could result in a significant charge to our earnings in any such period.

Table of Contents
Achieving the expected returns and synergies from future acquisitions will depend, in part, upon our ability to integrate the products and services, technology, administrative functions and personnel of these businesses into our offering lines in an efficient and effective manner. We cannot assure you that we will be able to do so, that any acquired businesses will perform at levels and on the timelines anticipated by our management or that we will be able to obtain these synergies. In addition, acquired technologies and intellectual property may be rendered obsolete or uneconomical by our own or our competitors’ technological advances. Management resources may also be diverted from operating our existing businesses to certain acquisition integration challenges. If we are unable to successfully integrate acquired businesses, our anticipated revenues and profits may be lower. Our profit margins may also be lower, or diluted, following the acquisition of companies whose profit margins are less than those of our existing businesses.
In addition, from time to time we may enter into negotiations for acquisitions, relationships, joint ventures or investments that are not ultimately consummated. These negotiations could result in significant diversion of management time, as well as substantial
out-of-pocket
costs.
If we are unable to manage our growth and expand our operations successfully, our reputation and brands may be damaged, and our business and results of operations may be harmed.
Over the past several years, we have experienced rapid growth. For example, we have grown from 44 full-time employees as of October 31, 2018 to 622 full-time employees as of June 30, 2021. We expect this growth to continue and the number of facilities from which we operate to increase in the future. Our ability to effectively manage our anticipated growth and expansion of our operations will require us to do, among other things, the following:
 
   
enhance our operational, financial and management controls and infrastructure, human resource policies, and reporting systems and procedures;
 
   
effectively scale our operations, including accurately predicting the need for floor space, equipment, and additional staffing; and
 
   
successfully identify, recruit, hire, train, develop, maintain, motivate and integrate additional employees.
These enhancements and improvements will require significant capital expenditures and allocation of valuable management and employee resources. Furthermore, our growth has placed, and will continue to place, a strain on our operational, financial and management infrastructure. Our future financial performance and our ability to execute on our business plan will depend, in part, on our ability to effectively manage any future growth and expansion. There are no guarantees we will be able to do so in an efficient or timely manner, or at all. Our failure to effectively manage growth and expansion could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition, prospects, reputation and brands, including impairing our ability to perform to our customers’ expectations.
We may not timely and effectively scale and adapt our existing technology, processes and infrastructure to meet the needs of our business.
A key element to our continued growth is the ability to quickly and efficiently quote an increasing number of customer submissions across geographic regions and to manufacture the related custom parts. This will require us to timely and effectively scale and adapt our existing technology, processes and infrastructure to meet the needs of our business. With respect to our website, project management platform and quoting technology, it may become increasingly difficult to maintain and improve their performance, especially during periods of heavy usage and as our solutions become more complex and our user traffic increases across geographic regions. Similarly, our manufacturing automation technology may not enable us to process the large numbers of unique designs and efficiently manufacture the related custom parts in a timely fashion to meet the needs of our
 
59

Table of Contents
customers as our business continues to grow. Any failure in our ability to timely and effectively scale and adapt our existing technology, processes and infrastructure could negatively impact our ability to retain existing customers and attract new customers, damage our reputation and brands, result in lost revenue, and otherwise substantially harm our business and results of operations.
We may require additional capital to support business growth, and this capital might not be available on acceptable terms, if at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when needed, our financial condition could be adversely affected and we may not be able to execute our growth strategy.
We intend to continue to make acquisitions and other investments to support our business growth and may require additional funds to respond to business challenges, including the need to complement our growth strategy, increase market share in our current markets or expand into other markets, or broaden our technology, intellectual property or manufacturing capabilities. Accordingly, we may need to obtain equity or debt financings to secure additional funds. If we raise additional funds through future issuances of equity or convertible debt securities, our existing stockholders could suffer significant dilution, and any new equity securities we issue could have rights, preferences and privileges superior to those of holders of our common stock. Any debt financing we secure in the future could involve restrictive covenants relating to our capital raising activities and other financial and operational matters, which may make it more difficult for us to obtain additional capital and to pursue business opportunities, including potential acquisitions. We may not be able to obtain additional financing on terms favorable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain adequate financing or financing on terms satisfactory to us when we require it, our ability to continue to support our business growth and to respond to business challenges could be significantly impaired, and our business may be adversely affected.
Numerous factors may cause us not to maintain the revenue growth that we have historically experienced.
Although our revenue has grown from $20.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 to $61.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, we may not be able to maintain our historical rate of revenue growth. We believe that our continued revenue growth will depend on many factors, a number of which are out of our control, including among others, our ability to:
 
   
retain and further penetrate existing customers, as well as attract new customers;
 
   
consistently execute on custom part orders in a manner that satisfies our customers’ product needs and provides them with a superior experience;
 
   
develop new technologies or manufacturing processes and broaden the range of custom parts we offer;
 
   
capitalize on customers’ product expectations for access to comprehensive, user-friendly
e-commerce
capabilities 24 hours per day, 7 days per week;
 
   
increase the strength and awareness of our brands across geographic regions;
 
   
respond to changes in customers’ needs, technology and our industry;
 
   
react to challenges from existing and new competitors; and
 
   
respond to an economic recession which negatively impacts manufacturers’ ability to innovate and bring new products to market.
 
   
We cannot assure you that we will be successful in addressing the factors above and continuing to grow our business and revenue.
Errors or defects in the software we use or custom parts we manufacture could cause us to incur additional costs, lose revenue and business opportunities, damage our reputation and expose us to potential liability.
The sophisticated software we use and the often complex custom parts we manufacture may contain errors, defects or other performance problems at any point in the life of the software or custom parts. If errors or defects
 
60

Table of Contents
are discovered in our current or future software or in the custom parts we manufacture for customers, we may not be able to correct them in a timely manner or provide an adequate response to our customers. We may therefore need to expend significant financial, technical and management resources, or divert some of our development resources, in order to resolve or work around those defects. We may also experience an increase in our service and warranty costs. Particularly in the medical sector, errors or defects in our software or custom parts we manufacture could lead to claims by patients against us and our customers and expose us to lawsuits that may damage our and our customers’ reputations. Claims may be made by individuals or by classes of users. Our product liability and related insurance policies may not apply or sufficiently cover any product liability lawsuit that arises from defective software we may use or the custom parts we manufacture. Customers such as our collaboration partners may also seek indemnification for third party claims allegedly arising from breaches of warranties under our collaboration agreements.
Errors, defects or other performance problems in the software we use or custom parts we manufacture may also result in the loss of, or delay in, the market acceptance of our platform and digital manufacturing capabilities. Such difficulties could also cause us to lose customers and, particularly in the case of our largest customers, the potentially substantial associated revenue which would have been generated by our sales to companies participating in our customer’s supply chain. Technical problems, or the loss of a customer with a particularly important national or global reputation, could also damage our own business reputation and cause us to lose new business opportunities.
Interruptions to or other problems with our website, project management platform, information technology systems, manufacturing processes or other operations could damage our reputation and brands and substantially harm our business and results of operations.
The satisfactory performance, reliability, consistency, security and availability of our website and interactive project management platform, information technology systems, manufacturing processes and other operations are critical to our reputation and brands, and to our ability to effectively service customers. Any interruptions or other problems that cause any of our website, interactive project management platform or information technology systems to malfunction or be unavailable, or negatively impact our manufacturing processes or other operations, may damage our reputation and brands, result in lost revenue, cause us to incur significant costs seeking to remedy the problem and otherwise substantially harm our business and results of operations.
A number of factors or events could cause such interruptions or problems, including among others: human and software errors, design faults, challenges associated with upgrades, changes or new facets of our business, power loss, telecommunication failures, fire, flood, extreme weather, political instability, acts of terrorism, war,
break-ins
and security breaches, contract disputes, labor strikes and other workforce-related issues, capacity constraints due to an unusually large number of customers and potential customers accessing our website or project management platform or ordering parts at the same time, and other similar events. These risks are augmented by the fact that our customers come to us largely for our quick-turn low to
mid-volume
manufacturing capabilities and that accessibility and turnaround speed are often of critical importance to these customers. We are dependent upon our facilities through which we satisfy all of our production demands and in which we house all of the computer hardware necessary to operate our website and systems as well as managerial, customer service, sales, marketing and other similar functions, and we have not identified alternatives to these facilities or established fully redundant systems in multiple locations. In addition, we are dependent in part on third parties for the implementation and maintenance of certain aspects of our communications and production systems, and therefore preventing, identifying and rectifying problems with these aspects of our systems is to a large extent outside of our control.
Moreover, the business interruption insurance that we carry may not be sufficient to compensate us for the potentially significant losses, including the potential harm to the future growth of our business that may result from interruptions in our offerings and manufacturing processes as a result of system failures.

Table of Contents
If a natural or
man-made
disaster strikes any of our manufacturing facilities, we may be unable to manufacture our products for a substantial period of time and our sales will decline.
We manufacture all of our products in 12 manufacturing facilities located in the United States. These facilities and the manufacturing equipment we use would be costly to replace if damaged by a natural or
man-made
disaster, and could require substantial lead time to repair or replace. Our facilities may be harmed by natural or
man-made
disasters, including, without limitation, earthquakes, floods, tornadoes, fires, hurricanes, tsunamis, nuclear disasters, terrorist attacks, or as a result of the ongoing
COVID-19
pandemic. In the event any of our facilities are affected by a disaster, we may:
 
   
be unable to meet the shipping deadlines of our customers;
 
   
experience disruptions in our ability to process submissions and generate quotations, manufacture and ship parts, provide marketing and sales support and customer service and otherwise operate our business, any of which could negatively impact our business;
 
   
be forced to rely on third-party manufacturers;
 
   
need to expend significant capital and other resources to address any damage caused by the disaster; and
 
   
lose customers and be unable to reacquire those customers.
Although we possess insurance for damage to our property and the disruption of our business from casualties, this insurance may not be sufficient to cover all of our potential losses and may not continue to be available to us on acceptable terms, or at all.
If our present single or limited source suppliers become unavailable or inadequate, our customer relationships, results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.
We acquire substantially all of the manufacturing equipment and certain of our materials that are critical to the ongoing operation and future growth of our business from third parties. We do not have long-term supply contracts with any of our suppliers and operate on a purchase-order basis. While most manufacturing equipment and materials for our products are available from multiple suppliers, certain of those items are only available from single or limited sources. Should any of our present single or limited source suppliers for manufacturing equipment or materials become unavailable or inadequate, or impose terms unacceptable to us such as increased pricing terms, we could be required to spend a significant amount of time and expense to develop alternate sources of supply, and we may not be successful in doing so on terms acceptable to us, or at all. Natural disasters, such as hurricanes or tornadoes, may affect our supply of materials, particularly resins, from time to time, and we may purchase larger amounts of certain materials in anticipation of future shortages or increases in pricing. In addition, if we were unable to find a suitable supplier for a particular type of manufacturing equipment or material, we could be required to modify our existing manufacturing processes and offerings to accommodate the situation. As a result, the loss of a single or limited source supplier could adversely affect our relationship with our customers and our results of operations and financial condition.
We are subject to payment-related risks.
We accept payments using a variety of methods, including credit card, customer invoicing, physical bank check and payment upon delivery. As we offer new payment options to our customers, we may be subject to additional regulations, compliance requirements and fraud risk. For certain payment methods, including credit and debit cards, we pay interchange and other fees, which may increase over time and raise our operating costs and lower profitability. We rely on third parties to provide payment processing services, including the processing of credit cards, debit cards or electronic checks, and it could disrupt our business if these companies become unwilling or unable to provide these services to us. We are also subject to payment card association operating rules, certification requirements and rules governing electronic funds transfers, which could change or be
 
62

Table of Contents
reinterpreted to make it difficult or impossible for us to comply. If we fail to comply with these rules or requirements, we may be subject to fines and higher transaction fees and lose our ability to accept credit and debit card payments from our customers, process electronic funds transfers, or facilitate other types of online payments, and our business and operating results could be adversely affected.
Workplace accidents or environmental damage could result in substantial remedial obligations and damage to our reputation.
Accidents or other incidents that occur at our manufacturing and other facilities or involve our personnel or operations could result in claims for damages against us. In addition, in the event we are found to be financially responsible, as a result of environmental or other laws or by court order, for environmental damages alleged to have been caused by us or occurring on our premises, we could be required to pay substantial monetary damages or undertake expensive remedial obligations. The amount of any costs, including fines or damages payments that we might incur under such circumstances, could substantially exceed any insurance we have to cover such losses. Any of these events, alone or in combination, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and could adversely affect our reputation.
Interruptions, delays in service or inability to increase capacity at third-party data center facilities could adversely affect our business and reputation.
Our business, brands, reputation and ability to attract and retain customers depend upon the satisfactory performance, reliability and availability of our project management platform, depend upon the availability of the internet and our third-party service providers. We rely on third party data center facilities operated by Amazon Web Services (“AWS”), Ace Cloud Hosting (“Ace”), and Right Networks (“Right Networks”) to host our main servers. We do not control the operation of any of AWS’, Ace’s or Right Networks’ data center hosting facilities, and they may be subject to damage or interruption from earthquakes, floods, fires, power loss, telecommunications failures, terrorist attacks and similar events. They may also be subject to interruptions due to system failures, computer viruses, software errors or subject to breaches of computer hardware and software security,
break-ins,
sabotage, intentional acts of vandalism and similar misconduct. And while we rely on service level agreements with our hosting providers, if they do not properly maintain their infrastructure or if they incur unplanned outages, our customers may experience performance issues or unexpected interruptions and we may not meet our service level agreement terms with our customers. We have experienced, and expect that in the future we may experience interruptions, delays and outages in service and availability from time to time due to a variety of factors, including infrastructure changes, human or software errors, website hosting disruptions and capacity constraints. These and other similar events beyond our control could negatively affect the use, functionality or availability of our services.
Any damage to, or failure of, our systems, or those of our third-party providers, could interrupt or hinder the use or functionality of our website or project management platform. Resulting impairment of or interruptions of our business may reduce revenue, subject us to claims and litigation, cause customers to terminate their contracts and adversely affect our ability to attract new customers. If we are forced to switch hosting facilities, we may not be successful in finding an alternative service provider on acceptable terms or in hosting the computer servers ourselves. Our business will also be harmed if customers and potential customers believe our systems are unreliable.
The audit report we received with respect to our audited financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 included emphasis of a matter regarding going concern. We must raise additional capital before April 29, 2022 to refinance our debt, and funding of the credit facilities provided for under our New Credit Agreement for this purpose is conditioned upon the completion of the Business Combination.
As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the principal amount outstanding under Fathom OpCo’s 2021 Term Loan was $172 million. The 2021 Term Loan matures for repayment on April 29, 2022. If Fathom
 
63

Table of Contents
OpCo is unable to complete a significant capital transaction such as the Business Combination prior to April 9, 2022, and obtain funding of the credit facilities provided for under the New Credit Agreement, Fathom OpCo expects that it would not have sufficient funds on hand and from cash flow from operations to repay the 2021 Term Loan when it matures on April 29, 2022, which could result in our inability to continue as a going concern. The Business Combination is subject to customary closing conditions, some of which are out of Fathom OpCo’s control and, as a consequence, there can be no guarantee that the Business Combination and the funding of the credit facilities provided for under the New Credit Agreement will be completed. Accordingly, Grant Thornton LLP, Fathom OpCo’s independent registered public accounting firm, without modifying its opinion included a going concern emphasis paragraph in its audit report covering the audited financial statements of Fathom OpCo included in this proxy statement/prospectus.

Industry Risks
The
COVID-19
pandemic has adversely affected our business and results of operations. The duration and extent to which it will continue to adversely impact our business and results of operations remains uncertain and could be material.
The
COVID-19
pandemic has resulted in a widespread public health crisis and numerous significant disease control measures being taken to limit its spread, including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines,
shelter-in-place
orders and shutdowns. These measures have materially impacted and may impact our workforce and operations, the operations of our customers, and those of our respective vendors and suppliers. Our operations are located in the United States, and domestic and global measures taken in effort to contain the pandemic has caused disruptions at some of our manufacturing operations and facilities as well as supplier facilities. Further such disruptions could occur in the future and any such disruptions could materially adversely affect our business. The impact of the pandemic on our business has included and could in the future include:
 
   
disruptions to or restrictions on our ability to ensure the continuous provision of our manufacturing services and solutions;
 
   
reductions in our capacity utilization levels;
 
   
temporary closures of our direct and indirect suppliers, resulting in adverse effects to our supply chain, and other supply chain disruptions, which adversely affect our ability to procure sufficient inventory to support customer orders;
 
   
temporary shortages of skilled employees available to staff manufacturing facilities due to
shelter-in-place
orders and travel restrictions within as well as into and out of countries;
 
   
restrictions or disruptions of transportation, such as reduced availability of air transport, port closures and increased border controls or closures;
 
   
increases in operational expenses and other costs related to requirements implemented to mitigate the impact of the pandemic;
 
   
delays or limitations on the ability of our customers to perform or make timely payments;
 
   
reductions in short- and long-term demand for our manufacturing services and solutions, or other disruptions in technology buying patterns;
 
   
workforce disruptions due to illness, quarantines, governmental actions, other restrictions and/or the social distancing measures we have taken to mitigate the impact of
COVID-19
at our locations in an effort to protect the health and well-being of our employees, customers, suppliers and of the communities in which we operate (including certain employees working from home, restricting the number of employees attending events or meetings in person, limiting the number of people in our buildings and factories at any one time, further restricting access to our facilities and suspending employee travel); and

our management team continuing to commit significant time, attention and resources to monitoring the
COVID-19
pandemic and seeking to mitigate its effects on our business and workforce.
The global spread of
COVID-19
also has created significant macroeconomic uncertainty, volatility and disruption, which may adversely affect our and our customers’ and suppliers’ liquidity, cost of capital and ability to access the capital markets. Even after the
COVID-19
pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience adverse impacts to our business as a result of the pandemic’s global economic impact, including any recession, economic downturn, government spending cuts, tightening of credit markets or increased unemployment that has occurred or may occur in the future, which could cause our customers and potential customers to postpone or reduce spending on our manufacturing services and solutions.
Global economic conditions may harm our ability to do business, increase our costs and negatively affect our stock price.
Our performance depends on the financial health and strength of our customers, which in turn is dependent on the economic conditions of the markets in which we and our customers operate. Declines in the global economy, difficulties in the financial services sector and credit markets, continuing geopolitical uncertainties, and other macroeconomic factors all affect the spending behavior of existing and potential customers.
We also face risks from financial difficulties or other uncertainties experienced by our suppliers, distributors or other third parties on which we rely. If third parties are unable to supply us with required materials or services or otherwise assist us in operating our business, our business could be harmed.
For example, the possibility of an ongoing trade war between the United States and China may impact the cost of raw materials, finished products or other materials used in our offerings and our ability to sell our offerings in China. Other changes in U.S. social, political, regulatory, and economic conditions or in laws and policies governing foreign trade, manufacturing, development and investment could also adversely affect our business. We could experience interruptions in production due to the processing of customs formalities or reduced customer spending in the wake of weaker economic performance. If global economic conditions remain volatile for a prolonged period our results of operations could be adversely affected.
If demand for our offerings and manufacturing capabilities does not grow as expected, or if market adoption of digital manufacturing does not continue to develop, or develops more slowly than expected, our revenues may stagnate or decline and our business may be adversely affected.
The industrial manufacturing market, which today is dominated by conventional manufacturing processes that do not involve digital manufacturing technology, is undergoing a shift towards digital manufacturing. We may not be able to develop effective strategies to raise awareness among potential customers of the benefits of digital manufacturing technologies or our offerings and manufacturing capabilities may not address the specific needs or provide the level of functionality required by potential customers to encourage the continuation of this shift towards digital manufacturing. If digital manufacturing technology does not continue to gain broader market acceptance as an alternative to conventional manufacturing processes, or if the marketplace adopts digital manufacturing technologies and capacities developed by our competitors, we may not be able to increase or sustain the level of sales of our offerings and our operating results would be adversely affected as a result.
We could face liability if our digital manufacturing solutions are used by our customers to print dangerous objects.
Customers may use our digital manufacturing offerings to produce parts that could be used in a harmful way or could otherwise be dangerous. For example, there have been news reports that 3D printers were used to print guns or other weapons. We have little, if any, control or knowledge over the parts we manufacture for our customers using our offerings, and it may be difficult, if not impossible, for us to monitor and prevent customers
 
65

Table of Contents
from having certain components of weapons or other dangerous objects manufactured with our services. While we have never digitally manufactured weapons for customers, there can be no assurance that we will not be held liable if someone were injured or killed by a weapon or other dangerous object containing a component part or parts manufactured for a customer using one of our offerings.
Because the digital manufacturing market is rapidly evolving, forecasts of market growth in this proxy statement/prospectus may not be accurate.
Market opportunity estimates and growth forecasts included in this proxy statement/prospectus are subject to significant uncertainty and are based on assumptions and estimates that may not prove to be accurate. The forecasts and estimates in this proxy statement/prospectus relating to the expected size and growth of the markets for digital manufacturing technology and other markets in which we participate may prove to be inaccurate. Even if these markets experience the forecasted growth described in this proxy statement/prospectus, we may not grow our business at similar rates, or at all. Our future growth is subject to many factors, including continued market adoption of our offerings, which is subject to many risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, the forecasts and estimates of market size and growth described in this proxy statement/prospectus should not be taken as indicative of our future growth. In addition, these forecasts do not consider the impact of the ongoing global
COVID-19
pandemic, and we cannot assure you that these forecasts will not be materially and adversely affected as a result.
Our actual results may be significantly different from our projections, estimates, targets or forecasts.
The projections, estimates, targets and forecasts contained in this proxy statement/prospectus are forward-looking statements that are based on assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control. While all projections, estimates, targets and forecasts are necessarily speculative, we believe that the preparation of prospective financial information involves increasingly higher levels of uncertainty the further out in time the projection, estimate, target or forecast extends from the date of preparation. The assumptions and estimates underlying the projected, expected or target results are inherently uncertain and are subject to a wide variety of significant business, economic, regulatory and competitive risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in such projections, estimates, targets and forecasts. Our projections, estimates, targets and forecasts should not be regarded as an indication that Fathom OpCo or its representatives considered or consider such financial projections, estimates, targets and forecasts to be a reliable prediction of future events.
Intellectual Property and Infrastructure-Related Risks
We may not be able to adequately protect or enforce our intellectual property rights, which could impair our competitive position.
Our success and future revenue growth will depend, in part, on our ability to protect our intellectual property. We rely primarily on patents, licenses, trademarks and trade secrets, as well as
non-disclosure
agreements and other methods, to protect our proprietary technologies and processes globally. Despite our efforts to protect our proprietary technologies and processes, it is possible that competitors or other unauthorized third parties may obtain, copy, use or disclose our technologies and processes or invent around our patents. We cannot assure you that any of our existing or future patents will not be challenged or invalidated in court or patent office proceedings that could be time-consuming, expensive and distract us from operating our business. In addition, competitors could circumvent our patents by inventing around them. As such, any rights granted under these patents may not provide us with meaningful protection. We may not be able to obtain foreign patents corresponding to our United States patents. Even if foreign patents are granted, effective enforcement in foreign countries may not be available. If our patents and other intellectual property do not adequately protect our proprietary technology, our competitors may be able to offer product lines similar to ours. Our competitors may also be able to develop similar technology independently or design around our patents. Any of the foregoing events would lead to increased competition and lower revenue or gross margin, which would adversely affect our net income.

Table of Contents
We may incur substantial costs enforcing or acquiring intellectual property rights and defending against third-party claims as a result of litigation or other proceedings. Our failure to expand our intellectual property portfolio could adversely affect the growth of our business and results of operations.
We may incur substantial expense and costs in protecting, enforcing and defending our intellectual property rights against third parties. Intellectual property disputes may be costly and can be disruptive to our business operations by diverting attention and energies of management and key technical personnel and by increasing our costs of doing business. Third-party intellectual property claims asserted against us could subject us to significant liabilities, require us to enter into royalty and licensing arrangements on unfavorable terms, prevent us from providing our offerings to customers, subject us to injunctions prohibiting or restricting our sale of our offerings, or require us to redesign our offerings, causing severe disruptions to our operations or the marketplaces in which we compete or require us to satisfy indemnification commitments with our customers, including contractual provisions under various license arrangements. In addition, we may incur significant costs in acquiring the necessary third-party intellectual property rights for use in our offerings. Any of these could have an adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
Patent applications in the United States and most other countries are confidential for a period of time until they are published, and the publication of discoveries in scientific or patent literature typically lags actual discoveries by several months or more. As a result, the nature of claims contained in unpublished patent filings around the world is unknown to us, and we cannot be certain that we were the first to conceive inventions covered by our patents or patent applications or that we were the first to file patent applications covering such inventions. Furthermore, it is not possible to know in which countries patent holders may choose to extend their filings under the Patent Cooperation Treaty or other mechanisms.
In addition, we may be subject to intellectual property infringement claims from individuals, vendors and other companies, including those that are in the business of asserting patents, but are not commercializing products or services in the field of digital manufacturing, or our customers may seek to invoke indemnification obligations to involve us in such intellectual property infringement claims. Furthermore, although we maintain certain procedures to screen custom parts we manufacture on behalf of customers for infringement on the intellectual property rights of others, we cannot be certain that our procedures will be effective in preventing any such infringement. Any third-party lawsuits or other assertion to which we are subject, alleging infringement of trademarks, patents, trade secrets or other intellectual property rights either by us or by our customers may have a significant adverse effect on our financial condition.
Cybersecurity risks and cyber incidents, including cyber-attacks, could adversely affect our business by causing a disruption to our operations, a compromise or corruption of our confidential information and confidential information in our possession and damage to our business relationships, any of which could negatively impact our business, financial condition and operating results.
There has been an increase in the frequency and sophistication of the cyber and security threats we face, with attacks ranging from those common to businesses generally to those that are more advanced and persistent, which may target us due to our substantial reliance on information technology or otherwise. Cyber-attacks and other security threats could originate from a wide variety of sources, including cyber criminals, nation state hackers, hacktivists and other outside parties. As a result of the generally increasing frequency and sophistication of cyber-attacks, and our substantial reliance on technology, we may face a heightened risk of a security breach or disruption with respect to sensitive information resulting from an attack by computer hackers, foreign governments or cyber terrorists.
The operation of our business is dependent on computer hardware and software systems, as well as data processing systems and the secure processing, storage and transmission of information, which are vulnerable to security breaches and cyber incidents. A cyber incident is considered to be any adverse event that threatens the confidentiality, integrity or availability of our information resources. These incidents may be an intentional attack or
 
67

Table of Contents
an unintentional event and could involve gaining unauthorized access to our information systems for purposes of misappropriating assets, stealing confidential information, corrupting data or causing operational disruption. In addition, we and our employees may be the target of fraudulent emails or other targeted attempts to gain unauthorized access to proprietary or other sensitive information. The result of these incidents may include disrupted operations, misstated or unreliable financial data, fraudulent transfers or requests for transfers of money, liability for stolen information, increased cybersecurity protection and insurance costs, litigation and damage to our business relationships, causing our business and results of operations to suffer. Our reliance on information technology is substantial, and accordingly the risks posed to our information systems, both internal and those provided by third-party service providers are critical. We have implemented processes, procedures and internal controls designed to mitigate cybersecurity risks and cyber intrusions and rely on industry accepted security measures and technology to securely maintain confidential and proprietary information maintained on our information systems; however, these measures, as well as our increased awareness of the nature and extent of a risk of a cyber-incident, do not guarantee that a cyber-incident will not occur and/or that our financial results, operations or confidential information will not be negatively impacted by such an incident, especially because the cyber-incident techniques change frequently or are not recognized until launched and because cyber-incidents can originate from a wide variety of sources.
Those risks are exacerbated by the rapidly increasing volume of highly sensitive data, including our and our customers’ proprietary business information and intellectual property, and personally identifiable information of our employees and customers, that we collect and store in our data centers and on our networks. The secure processing, maintenance and transmission of this information are critical to our operations. A significant actual or potential theft, loss, corruption, exposure, fraudulent use or misuse of employee, customer or other personally identifiable or our or our customers’ proprietary business data, whether by third parties or as a result of employee malfeasance (or the negligence or malfeasance of third party service providers that have access to such confidential information) or otherwise,
non-compliance
with our contractual or other legal obligations regarding such data or intellectual property or a violation of our privacy and security policies with respect to such data could result in significant remediation and other costs, fines, litigation or regulatory actions against us and significant reputational harm.
Our proprietary digital manufacturing software contains third-party open-source software components. Our use of such open-source software may expose us to additional risks and harm our intellectual property and failure to comply with the terms of the underlying open-source software licenses could restrict our ability to sell our offerings.
Our proprietary digital manufacturing software contains components that are licensed under
so-called
“open source,” “free” or other similar licenses. Open source software is made available to the general public on an
“as-is”
basis under the terms of a
non-negotiable
license. We currently combine our proprietary software with open source software, but not in a manner that we believe requires the release of the source code of our proprietary software to the public. We do not plan to integrate our proprietary software with open source software in ways that would require the release of the source code of our proprietary software to the public; however, our use of open source software may entail greater risks than use of third-party commercial software. Open source licensors generally do not provide warranties or other contractual protections regarding infringement claims or the quality of the code. In addition, if we combine our proprietary software with open source software in a certain manner, we could, under certain open source licenses, be required to release to the public or remove the source code of our proprietary software. As is standard practice among technology companies, Fathom OpCo leverages open source software in the development of its internal software. Open source software is commonly used as a foundation to which Fathom OpCo develops upon, allowing us to customize the software based on the specific needs of Fathom. This approach enables faster development of high quality software. We may also face claims alleging noncompliance with open source license terms or infringement or misappropriation of proprietary software. These claims could result in litigation, require us to purchase a costly license or remove the open source software. In addition, if the license terms for open source software that we use change, we may be forced to
re-engineer
our solutions, incur additional costs or discontinue the sale of certain of our offerings if
re-engineering
could not be accomplished on a timely basis. Although we
 
68

Table of Contents
monitor our use of open source software to avoid subjecting our offerings to unintended conditions, there is a risk that these licenses could be construed in a way that could impose unanticipated conditions or restrictions on our ability to commercialize our offerings. We cannot guarantee that we have incorporated open source software in our proprietary software in a manner that will not subject us to liability or in a manner that is consistent with our current policies and procedures.
Compliance-Related Risks
Government regulation of the Internet and
e-commerce
is evolving, and unfavorable changes or failure by us to comply with these regulations could substantially harm our business and results of operations.
We are subject to general business regulations and laws as well as regulations and laws specifically governing the Internet and
e-commerce.
Existing and future laws and regulations may impede the growth of the Internet or other online services. These regulations and laws may cover taxation, restrictions on imports and exports, customs, tariffs, user privacy, data protection, pricing, content, copyrights, distribution, electronic contracts and other communications, consumer protection, the provision of online payment services, broadband residential Internet access and the characteristics and quality of the types of custom parts we manufacture or may manufacture in the future. It is not clear how existing laws governing issues such as property use and ownership, sales and other taxes, fraud, libel and personal privacy apply to the Internet and
e-commerce,
especially where these laws were adopted prior to the advent of the Internet and do not contemplate or address the unique issues raised by the Internet or
e-commerce.
Those laws that do reference the Internet are being interpreted by the courts and their applicability and reach are therefore uncertain. The costs of compliance with these regulations may increase in the future as a result of changes in the regulations or the interpretation of them. Further, any failures on our part to comply with these regulations may subject us to significant liabilities. Those current and future laws and regulations or unfavorable resolution of these issues may substantially harm our business and results of operations.
Aspects of our business are subject to privacy, data use and data security regulations, which may impact the way we use data to target customers.
Privacy and security laws and regulations may limit the use and disclosure of certain information and require us to adopt certain cybersecurity and data handling practices that may affect our ability to effectively market our manufacturing capabilities to current, past or prospective customers. In many jurisdictions consumers must be notified in the event of a data security breach, and such notification requirements continue to increase in scope and cost. The changing privacy laws in the United States, Europe and elsewhere — including the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union, which became effective May 25, 2018, and the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018, which was enacted on June 28, 2018 and became effective on January 1, 2020 — create new individual privacy rights and impose increased obligations, including disclosure obligations, on companies handling personal data. The impact of these continuously evolving laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on the way we use data to digitally market and pursue our customers.
Our business involves the use of hazardous materials, and we and our suppliers must comply with environmental, health and safety laws and regulations, which can be expensive and restrict how we do business.
Our business involves the controlled storage, use and disposal of hazardous materials. We and our suppliers are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations governing the use, manufacture, storage, handling and disposal of these hazardous materials. Although we believe that the safety procedures utilized by us and our suppliers for handling and disposing of these materials comply with the standards prescribed by these laws and regulations, we cannot eliminate the risk of accidental contamination or injury from these materials. In the event of an accident, federal, state or local authorities may curtail the use of these materials and interrupt our business
 
69

Table of Contents
operations. We do not currently maintain hazardous materials insurance coverage. If we are subject to any liability as a result of activities involving hazardous materials, our business and financial condition may be adversely affected and our reputation and brands may be harmed.
If we are unable to meet regulatory quality standards applicable to our manufacturing and quality processes for the parts we manufacture, our business, financial condition or operating results could be harmed.
As a manufacturer of
CNC-machined
and injection-molded custom parts, we conform to certain international standards, including International Organization for Standardization, or ISO, 9001:2015 for our injection molding facilities and the AS9100:2016 standard for our
CNC-machining
facilities in Hartland, WI, Pflugerville, TX, Tempe, AZ, Newark, NY. We conform to the ISO 9001:2015 standard for our plastics manufacturing and the AS9100:2016 standard for our metals manufacturing in In Hartland, WI, Pflugerville, TX, Tempe, AZ, and Newark, NY. We conform to the ISO 9001:2015 for our sheet metal custom parts and the AS9100:2016 standards for our
CNC-machined
custom parts in Hartland, WI, Pflugerville, TX, Tempe, AZ, and Newark, NY. We also conform to international standard ISO 9001:2015 at our manufacturing facilities in Hartland, WI, Oakland, CA, Newark, NY, Pflugerville, TX, Denver, CO, Round Rock, TX, Tempe, AZ, Miami Lakes, FL, and Elk Grove, IL. We conform to the NIST
800-171 standard
at our facilities in Oakland, CA and Tempe, AZ. We conform to the ITAR standard at our facilities in Hartland, WI, Oakland, CA, Ithaca, NY, Denver, CO, Tempe, AZ, and Newark, NY. Additionally, we conform to international standard ISO 13485 at our manufacturing facilities in Round Rock, TX and Miami Lakes, FL. If any system inspection reveals that we are not in compliance with applicable standards, registrars may take action against us, including issuing a corrective action request or discontinuing our certifications. If any of these actions were to occur, it could harm our reputation as well as our business, financial condition and operating results.
We are subject to environmental, health and safety laws and regulations related to our operations and the use of our digital manufacturing systems and consumable materials, which could subject us to compliance costs and/or potential liability in the event of
non-compliance.
We are subject to environmental laws and regulations governing our manufacturing operations, including, but not limited to, emissions into the air and water and the use, handling, disposal and remediation of hazardous substances. A certain risk of environmental liability is inherent in our production activities. These laws and regulations govern, among other things, the generation, use, storage, registration, handling and disposal of chemicals and waste materials, the emission and discharge of hazardous materials into the ground, air or water, the cleanup of contaminated sites, including any contamination that results from spills due to our failure to properly dispose of chemicals and other waste materials, and the health and safety of our employees. Under these laws, regulations and requirements, we could also be subject to liability for improper disposal of chemicals and waste materials. Accidents or other incidents that occur at our facilities or involve our personnel or operations could result in claims for damages against us. In the event we are found to be financially responsible, as a result of environmental or other laws or by court order, for environmental damages alleged to have been caused by us or occurring on our premises, we could be required to pay substantial monetary damages or undertake extensive remedial obligations. If our operations fail to comply with such laws or regulations, we may be subject to fines and other civil, administrative or criminal sanctions, including the revocation of permits and licenses necessary to continue our business activities. In addition, we may be required to pay damages or civil judgments in respect of third-party claims, including those relating to personal injury (including exposure to hazardous substances that we generate, use, store, handle, transport, manufacture or dispose of), property damage or contribution claims. Some environmental laws allow for strict and joint and several liabilities for remediation costs, regardless of fault. We may be identified as a potentially responsible party under such laws. The amount of any costs, including fines or damages payments that we might incur under such circumstances, could substantially exceed any insurance we have to cover such losses. Any of these events, alone or in combination, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations and could adversely affect our reputation.

Table of Contents
The cost of complying with current and future environmental, health and safety laws applicable to our operations, or the liabilities arising from past releases of, or exposure to, hazardous substances, may result in future expenditures. Any of these developments, alone or in combination, could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We are subject to anti-corruption laws, trade controls, economic sanctions and similar laws and regulations. Our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could subject us to civil, criminal and administrative penalties and harm our reputation.
We service customers located in a number of countries throughout the world. Doing business with foreign customers subjects us to U.S. and other anti-corruption laws and regulations imposed by governments around the world with jurisdiction over such commerce with foreign customers, including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and the U.K. Bribery Act 2010, as well as the laws of the countries where we do business. Failure to comply with these anti-corruption laws and regulations could subject us to civil, criminal, and administrative penalties and harm our reputation. We are also subject to various U.S., international, and regional trade laws, including trade and economic sanctions and export controls, imposed by governments around the world with jurisdiction over our commerce with foreign customers. We are also subject to embargoes, sanctions, and trade and export controls imposed by the United States and other governments restricting or prohibiting sales to or transactions with specific persons or jurisdictions or the provision of certain items, based on their classification, to certain jurisdictions or persons or for certain end use purposes. Failure to comply with these embargoes, sanctions, and trade and export controls could subject us to civil, criminal and administrative penalties and harm our reputation. These embargoes, sanctions, and trade and export controls can change rapidly with little to no notice, and therefore, our current and future offerings could become subject to heightened restrictions, which could increase our compliance costs and our risks of potential non-compliance in these areas.
Risks of Being a Public Company
Our management team has limited experience managing a public company and may not successfully manage our transition to public company status.
Most members of our management team have limited experience managing a publicly-traded company, interacting with public company investors and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies. Our management team may not successfully or efficiently manage our transition to being a public company that is subject to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under the federal securities laws and the continuous scrutiny of securities analysts and investors. These new obligations and constituents will require significant attention from our senior management and could divert their attention away from the
day-to-day
management of our business, which could harm our business, results of operations and financial condition.
The requirements of being a public company may strain our resources, divert management’s attention and affect its ability to attract and retain qualified board members.
After the completion of the Business Combination, we will be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the “Sarbanes-Oxley Act”) and any rules promulgated thereunder, as well as the rules of NYSE. The requirements of these rules and regulations increase our legal and financial compliance costs, make some activities more difficult, time-consuming or costly, and increase demand on its systems and resources. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that we maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal controls for financial reporting. In order to maintain and, if required, improve our disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting to meet this standard, significant resources and management oversight will be required and, as a result, management’s attention may be diverted from other business concerns. These rules and regulations can also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified independent members of
 
71

Table of Contents
our board of directors. Additionally, these rules and regulations make it more difficult and more expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance. We may be required to accept reduced coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain coverage. The increased costs of compliance with public company reporting requirements and our potential failure to satisfy these requirements can have a material adverse effect on our operations, business, financial condition or results of operations.
We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. resulting from control deficiencies in our IT general controls and process level controls. Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting could result in our failure to accurately or timely report our financial condition or results of operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and stock price.
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Fathom will be required to comply with the SEC’s rules implementing Sections 302 and 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which will require management to certify financial and other information in our quarterly and annual reports and provide an annual management report on the effectiveness of our controls over financial reporting. Although we will be required to disclose changes made in our internal controls and procedures on a quarterly basis, we will not be required to make our first annual assessment of our internal controls over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404 until our annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022. This assessment will need to include disclosure of any material weaknesses identified by our management in our internal control over financial reporting, as well as a statement that our independent registered public accounting firm has issued an opinion on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting, provided that our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting until our first annual report required to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, following the later of the date we are deemed to be an “accelerated filer” or a “large accelerated filer,” each as defined in the Exchange Act, or the date we are no longer an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act.
In connection with the audit of our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020, we identified material weaknesses relating to our internal control over financial reporting relating to IT general controls, the design of our financial reporting system and the segregation of duties in the financial reporting process. A “material weakness” is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our consolidated financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.
Management is working to remediate the material weaknesses by hiring additional qualified accounting and financial reporting personnel, and further evolving our accounting processes. We may not be able to fully remediate these material weaknesses until these steps have been completed and have been operating effectively for a sufficient period of time. We cannot assure you that the measures we have taken to date and plan to take will be sufficient to remediate the material weakness we identified or avoid the identification of additional material weaknesses in the future. If we are not able to maintain effective internal control over financial reporting, our financial statements and related disclosures may be inaccurate, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and our stock price.
Through their ownership of our common stock, “negative control” rights and their rights to nominate directors to our board under the Investor Rights Agreement, the CORE Investors will have substantial influence over our management and policies, and their interests may conflict with ours or yours in the future.
Immediately following completion of the Business Combination, the CORE Investors will beneficially own approximately 45% of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock, which will generally vote together as a single class on matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, including the election of directors (or 51.5% assuming maximum redemptions by Altimar II Public Shareholders). As a result, the CORE Investors will have the ability to influence our business and affairs through “negative control” rights through their ownership of our
 
72

Table of Contents
Class A common stock combined with certain supermajority voting provisions of the Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws, their general ability to vote on the election of directors to our board and the provisions in the Investor Rights Agreement described below. If the other holders of our Class A common stock are dissatisfied with the performance of our board of directors, they have no ability to remove any of our directors, unless for cause and then only upon the affirmative vote of holders of
66-2/3%
of our outstanding Class A common stock and Class B common stock, voting as a single class. Assuming maximum redemptions by Altimar II Public Shareholders, approximately 51.5% of the Company’s Common Stock will be held by the CORE Investors. In the event of maximum redemptions by Altimar II Public Shareholders, the Company will be deemed a “controlled company” within the meaning of applicable rules of the NYSE upon the completion of the Business Combination. Under these rules, a company in which more than 50% of the voting power for the election of the company’s directors is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements.
In addition, in connection with the Business Combination, we will enter into the Investor Rights Agreement with the CORE Investors which will provide for an initial ten-person board of directors, consisting of nine individuals to be designated by the CORE Investors, and one independent director to be mutually agreed by the CORE Investors and the Sponsor. The CORE Investors will have certain continued nomination rights for a number of directors ranging from the majority of the board of directors to one director, while they beneficially own shares of common stock in excess of certain ownership percentage of the amount owned by the CORE Investors at Closing, as determined in accordance with the Investor Rights Agreement. In addition, for so long as the CORE Investors beneficially own shares of common stock representing at least 5% of the amount owned by the CORE Investors at Closing, the CORE Investors will have the right to designate a person to attend meetings of our board (including any meetings of any committees thereof) in a
non-voting
observer capacity. See “The Business Combination Agreement – Related Agreements – Investor Rights Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement” for more details with respect to the Investor Rights Agreement.
The CORE Investors and their affiliates engage and will continue to engage in a broad spectrum of activities, including investments in the manufacturing and industrial industries generally, and engage and may continue to engage in the same or similar activities or related lines of business as those in which we are engaged or may engage in, directly or indirectly. In the ordinary course of their business activities, the CORE Investors and their affiliates may engage in activities in which their interests conflict with our interests or those of our other shareholders, such as investing in or advising businesses that directly or indirectly compete with certain portions of our business or are suppliers or partners of ours. Our Proposed Charter will provide that none of the CORE Investors, any of their affiliates or any director who is not employed by us (including any
non-employee
director who serves as one of our officers in both his director and officer capacities) or its affiliates will have any duty to refrain from engaging, directly or indirectly, in the same business activities or similar business activities or lines of business in which we operate. The CORE Investors and their affiliates also may pursue acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us. In addition, the CORE Investors and their affiliates may have an interest in pursuing acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions that, in their judgment, could enhance their investment, even though such transactions might involve risks to you.
In certain circumstances, Fathom would qualify as, and would expect to elect to be treated as, a “controlled company” within the meaning of the NYSE listing standards and, as a result, our stockholders may not have certain corporate governance protections that are available to stockholders of companies that are not controlled companies.
Immediately following the completion of the Business Combination, the CORE Investors are expected to beneficially own approximately 45% of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock, which will generally vote together as a single class on matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, including the election of directors (or 51.5% assuming maximum redemptions by Altimar II Public Shareholders). If more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors of Fathom is held by an individual, a group or another company,

Table of Contents
including the CORE Investors, Fathom would qualify as a “controlled company” under the NYSE listing requirements. If following the completion of the Business Combination, the CORE Investors control a majority of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock, Fathom would qualify as, and would expect to elect to be treated as, a “controlled company” under the NYSE listing standards and in such case would not be subject to the requirements that would otherwise require us to have: (i) a majority of “independent directors,” as defined under the listing standards of the NYSE; (ii) a nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors; (iii) compensation of our executive officers determined by a majority of the independent directors or a compensation committee comprised solely of independent directors; and (iv) director nominees selected, or recommended for the Board’s selection, either by a majority of the independent directors or a nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors.
In the event that Fathom is categorized as a “controlled company” following the completion of the Business Combination, the CORE Investors may have their interest in Fathom diluted due to future equity issuances by Fathom or their own actions in selling shares of Class A common stock, in each case, which could result in a loss of the “controlled company” exemption under the NYSE listing rules. Fathom would then be required to comply with those provisions of the NYSE listing requirements.
Under SEC Rules, we will be an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company” and the reduced SEC disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies and smaller reporting companies may make our common stock less attractive to investors.
As a newly public company, we will be “emerging growth company,” as defined in the JOBS Act. As an emerging growth company we may follow reduced disclosure requirements and do not have to make all of the disclosures that public companies that are not emerging growth companies do. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (a) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of $1.0 billion or more (as adjusted for inflation); (b) the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of the date of the completion of the initial public offering of Fathom; (c) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in nonconvertible debt during the previous three years; or (d) the date on which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer under the rules of the SEC, which means the market value of our common stock that is held by
non-affiliates
exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30. For so long as we remain an emerging growth company, we are permitted and intend to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies. These exemptions include:
 
   
not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
 
   
not being required to comply with any requirement that may be adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding mandatory audit firm rotation or a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements (i.e., an auditor discussion and analysis);
 
   
reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports, proxy statements and registration statements; and
 
   
exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote of stockholders on executive compensation, stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved and having to disclose the ratio of the compensation of our chief executive officer to the median compensation of our employees.
In addition, the JOBS Act provides that an emerging growth company can take advantage of an extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. This allows an emerging growth company to delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. We have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised
 
74

Table of Contents
accounting standards; and as a result of this election, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates.
We may choose to take advantage of some, but not all, of the available exemptions for emerging growth companies. We cannot predict whether investors will find our common stock less attractive if we rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our share price may be more volatile.
In order to satisfy our obligations as a public company, we will need to hire qualified accounting and financial personnel with appropriate public company experience.
As a newly public company, we will need to establish and maintain effective disclosure and financial controls and make changes in our corporate governance practices. We may need to hire additional accounting and financial personnel with appropriate public company experience and technical accounting knowledge, and it may be difficult to recruit and retain such personnel. Even if we are able to hire appropriate personnel, our existing operating expenses and operations will be impacted by the direct costs of their employment and the indirect consequences related to the diversion of management resources from research and development efforts.
The Company may be subject to securities litigation, which is expensive and could divert management attention.
Following the Business Combination, the per share price of the Class A common stock may be volatile and, in the past, companies that have experienced volatility in the market price of their stock have been subject to securities litigation, including class action litigation. Litigation of this type could result in substantial costs and diversion of management’s attention and resources, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. Any adverse determination in litigation could also subject the Company to significant liabilities.
Because the Company will become a publicly traded company by means other than a traditional underwritten initial public offering, the Company’s stockholders may face additional risks and uncertainties.
Because the Company will become a publicly traded company by means of consummating the Business Combination rather than by means of a traditional underwritten initial public offering, there is no independent third-party underwriter selling the shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, and, accordingly, the Company’s stockholders will not have the benefit of an independent review and investigation of the type normally performed by an unaffiliated, independent underwriter in a public securities offering. Due diligence reviews typically include an independent investigation of the background of the company, any advisors and their respective affiliates, review of the offering documents and independent analysis of the plan of business and any underlying financial assumptions. Although Altimar II performed a due diligence review and investigation of Fathom OpCo in connection with the Business Combination, the lack of an independent due diligence review and investigation increases the risk of investment in the Company because Altimar II’s due diligence review and investigation may not have uncovered facts that would be important to a potential investor.
In addition, because the Company will not become a publicly traded company by means of an traditional underwritten initial public offering, security or industry analysts may not provide, or be less likely to provide, coverage of the Company. Investment banks may also be less likely to agree to underwrite secondary offerings on behalf of the Company than they might otherwise be if the Company became a publicly traded company by means of a traditional underwritten initial public offering because they may be less familiar with the Company as a result of more limited coverage by analysts and the media. The failure to receive research coverage or support in the market for the Company’s Class A common stock could have an adverse effect on the Company’s ability to develop a liquid market for the Company’s Class A common stock.

Risks Related to our Structure and Governance
Upon completion of the Business Combination, the rights of holders of Fathom’s common stock arising under the DGCL will differ from and may be less favorable to the rights of holders of Altimar II’s ordinary shares arising under Cayman Islands law.
Upon completion of the Business Combination, the rights of holders of Fathom’s common stock will arise under the DGCL. The DGCL contains provisions that differ in some respects from those in the Cayman Islands Companies Act, and, therefore, some rights of holders of Fathom’s common stock could differ from the rights that holders of Altimar II ordinary shares currently possess. For instance, while class action lawsuits are generally not available to shareholders under Cayman Islands law, such actions are generally available under Delaware law. This change could increase the likelihood that Fathom becomes involved in costly litigation, which could have a material adverse effect on Fathom
For a more detailed description of the rights of holders of Fathom’s common stock under the DGCL and how they may differ from the rights of holders of Altimar II ordinary shares under Cayman Islands law, please see the section entitled “
The Domestication Proposal — Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholders.
Delaware law, the Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws will contain certain provisions, including anti-takeover provisions, that limit the ability of stockholders to take certain actions and could delay or discourage takeover attempts that stockholders may consider favorable.
The Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws that will be in effect upon completion of the Business Combination differ from the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association. Among other differences, the Proposed Charter and the DGCL contain provisions that could have the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying, or preventing an acquisition deemed undesirable by the Fathom Board and therefore depress the trading price of Fathom’s Class A common stock. These provisions could also make it difficult for stockholders to take certain actions, including electing directors who are not nominated by the current members of the Fathom Board or taking other corporate actions, including effecting changes in management. Among other things, the Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws include provisions regarding:
 
   
a classified board of directors with three-year staggered terms, which could delay the ability of stockholders to change the membership of a majority of the Fathom Board;
 
   
the ability of the Fathom Board to issue shares of preferred stock, including “blank check” preferred stock and to determine the price and other terms of those shares, including preferences and voting rights, without stockholder approval, which could be used to significantly dilute the ownership of a hostile acquirer;
 
   
the limitation of the liability of, and the indemnification of, Fathom’s directors and officers;
 
   
the right of the Fathom Board to elect a director to fill a vacancy created by the expansion of the Fathom Board or the resignation, death or removal of a director, which prevents stockholders from being able to fill vacancies on the Fathom Board;
 
   
the requirement that directors may only be removed from the Fathom Board for cause;
 
   
the requirement that a special meeting of stockholders may be called only by the Fathom Board or the chairman of the Fathom Board, which could delay the ability of stockholders to force consideration of a proposal or to take action, including the removal of directors;
 
   
controlling the procedures for the conduct and scheduling of the Fathom Board and stockholder meetings;
 
   
the ability of the Fathom Board to amend the Proposed Bylaws, which may allow the Fathom Board to take additional actions to prevent an unsolicited takeover and inhibit the ability of an acquirer to amend the Proposed Bylaws to facilitate an unsolicited takeover attempt; and
 
76

Table of Contents
   
advance notice procedures with which stockholders must comply to nominate candidates to the Fathom Board or to propose matters to be acted upon at a stockholders’ meeting, which could preclude stockholders from bringing matters before annual or special meetings of stockholders and delay changes in the composition of the Fathom Board and also may discourage or deter a potential acquirer from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the acquirer’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company.
These provisions, alone or together, could delay or prevent hostile takeovers and changes in control or changes in the Fathom board or management.
In addition, as a Delaware corporation, Fathom will generally be subject to provisions of Delaware law, including the DGCL, although Fathom will elect not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL.
Any provision of the Proposed Charter, Proposed Bylaws or Delaware law that has the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control could limit the opportunity for stockholders to receive a premium for their shares of Fathom’s capital stock and could also affect the price that some investors are willing to pay for Fathom’s common stock.
The form of the Proposed Charter is attached as
 Annex A
 to this proxy statement/prospectus, and the form of the Proposed Bylaws is attached as
 Annex B
 to this proxy statement/prospectus, and we urge you to read each of them.
In addition, the provisions of the Investor Rights Agreement, as described herein, provide the stockholders party thereto with certain board representation and other consent rights that could also have the effect of delaying or preventing a change in control.
The Proposed Charter will designate the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware as the sole and exclusive forum for certain types of actions and proceedings that may be initiated by Fathom’s stockholders, which could limit Fathom’s stockholders’ ability to obtain a favorable judicial forum for disputes with Fathom or its directors, officers or other employees.
The Proposed Charter will provide that, unless Fathom consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of Fathom, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer, other employee, agent or stockholder of Fathom to Fathom or Fathom’s stockholders, or any claim for aiding and abetting such alleged breach, (c) any action asserting a claim against Fathom or any current or former director, officer, other employee, agent or stockholder of Fathom (i) arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, the Proposed Charter (as it may be amended or restated) or the Proposed Bylaws or (ii) as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Delaware Court of Chancery or (d) any action asserting a claim against Fathom or any current or former director, officer, other employee, agent or stockholder of Fathom governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the law of the State of Delaware shall, as to any action in the foregoing clauses (a) through (b), to the fullest extent permitted by law, be solely and exclusively brought in the Delaware Court of Chancery; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any claim arising under federal securities laws, including the Securities Act as to which the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Article XI of the Proposed Charter will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the sole and exclusive forum. Further, Section 22 of the Securities Act of 1933 creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by that act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce this forum selection provision as written as to claims arising under the Securities Act.
This choice-of-forum provision
may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with Fathom or its directors, officers, stockholders, agents or other employees, which
 
77

Table of Contents
may discourage such lawsuits. Alternatively, if a court were to find this provision of the Proposed Charter inapplicable or unenforceable with respect to one or more of the specified types of actions or proceedings, Fathom may incur additional costs associated with resolving such matters in other jurisdictions, which could materially and adversely affect Fathom’s business, financial condition and results of operations and result in a diversion of the time and resources of Fathom’s management and board of directors.
The Proposed Charter will not limit the ability of the CORE Investors to compete with us.
The CORE Investors and their affiliates engage in a broad spectrum of activities, including investments in the financial services and technology industries. In the ordinary course of their business activities, the CORE Investors and their affiliates may engage in activities where their interests conflict with Fathom’s interests or those of its stockholders. The Proposed Charter will provide that none of the CORE Investors, any of their affiliates or any director who is not employed by Fathom (including
any non-employee director
who serves as one of its officers in both his director and officer capacities) or its affiliates will have any duty to refrain from engaging, directly or indirectly, in the same business activities or similar business activities or lines of business in which Fathom operates. The CORE Investors and their affiliates also may pursue, in their capacities other than as directors of Fathom, acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to Fathom’s business, and, as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to Fathom. In addition, the CORE Investors may have an interest in pursuing acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions that, in their judgment, could enhance their investment, even though such transactions might involve risks to you.
Risks Related to the Business Combination and Altimar II
Our Sponsor has agreed to vote in favor of the Business Combination, regardless of how our Public Shareholders vote.
Unlike some other blank check companies in which the initial shareholders agree to vote their shares in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by the public shareholders in connection with an initial business combination, Sponsor has agreed, among other things, (i) from the date of the Business Combination Agreement until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms, to not redeem any Class A ordinary shares (or, if applicable, shares of Altimar II Class A common stock) held by it and (ii) prior to the consummation of Business Combination or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement, to vote or cause to be voted, all of the Altimar II shares beneficially owned by Sponsor, at every meeting of the shareholders of Altimar II at which such matters are considered and at every adjournment or postponement thereof: (1) in favor of (A) the Business Combination and the Business Combination Agreement and the other transactions contemplated thereby (including any proposals recommended by Altimar II’s Board of Directors in connection with the Business Combination) and (B) any proposal to adjourn or postpone such meeting of shareholders to a later date if there are not sufficient votes to approve the Business Combination; (2) against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Altimar II under the Business Combination Agreement; and (3) against (A) any proposal or offer from any person concerning (I) a merger, consolidation, liquidation, recapitalization, share exchange or other business combination transaction involving Altimar II, or (II) the issuance or acquisition of shares of capital stock or other Altimar II equity securities (other than as contemplated or permitted by the Business Combination Agreement); and (B) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that would reasonably be expected to (x) impede the fulfillment of Altimar II’s conditions under the Business Combination Agreement or change in any manner the voting rights of any class of Altimar II’s shares or (y) result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or other obligation or agreement of Sponsor contained in the Forfeiture and Support Agreement.
As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the Sponsor owns approximately 20% of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares.

If the conditions to the Business Combination Agreement are not met, the Business Combination may not occur.
Even if the Business Combination Agreement is approved by the shareholders of Altimar II, specified conditions must be satisfied or waived before the parties to the Business Combination Agreement are obligated to complete the Business Combination, including, among other things, certain approvals. For a list of the material closing conditions contained in the Business Combination Agreement, see the section entitled “
The Business Combination Agreement — Conditions to
Closing of the Business Combination Agreement.
” Altimar II and Fathom may not satisfy all of the closing conditions in the Business Combination Agreement. If the closing conditions are not satisfied or waived, the Business Combination will not occur, or will be delayed pending later satisfaction or waiver, and such delay may cause Altimar II and Fathom OpCo to each lose some or all of the intended benefits of the Business Combination.
Some of Altimar II’s officers and directors may have conflicts of interest that may influence or have influenced them to support or approve the Business Combination without regard to your interests or in determining whether Fathom is appropriate for Altimar II’s initial business combination.
The personal and financial interests of Altimar II’s Sponsor, officers and directors may influence or have influenced their motivation in identifying and selecting a target for the Business Combination, their support for completing the Business Combination and the operation of Fathom following the Business Combination.
Altimar II’s Sponsor and independent directors own 8,450,000 and 175,000 Class B ordinary shares, respectively, which were initially acquired prior to Altimar II’s IPO for an aggregate purchase price of $0.003 per share and Altimar II’s officers have pecuniary interests in such ordinary shares through indirect ownership interests in the Sponsor. Such shares had an aggregate market value of approximately $                based on the last sale price of $                per share on the NYSE on        , the record date. In addition, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 9,900,000 Private Placement Warrants, each exercisable for one ordinary share of Altimar II at $11.50 per share, for a purchase price of $9,900,000, or $1.00 per warrant. Altimar II’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association require Altimar II to complete an initial business combination (which will be the Business Combination should it occur) within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, or February 9, 2023 (the “Combination Period”) (unless Altimar II submits and its shareholders approve an extension of such date). If the Business Combination is not completed and Altimar II is forced to wind up, dissolve and liquidate in accordance with the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the 8,450,000 and 175,000 Class B ordinary shares currently held by Altimar II’s Sponsor and independent directors, respectively, and the Private Placement Warrants held by the Sponsor will be worthless (as the holders have waived liquidation rights with respect to such ordinary shares).
Altimar II’s Sponsor, directors and officers, and their respective affiliates have incurred significant
out-of-pocket
expenses in connection with performing due diligence on suitable targets for business combinations and the negotiation of the Business Combination. At the Closing of the Business Combination, Altimar II’s Sponsor, directors and officers, and their respective affiliates, will be reimbursed for any
out-of-pocket
expenses incurred in connection with activities on Altimar II’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable targets for business combinations. As of the date hereof, Sponsor and its affiliates are awaiting reimbursement from Altimar II for approximately $15,000 in out-of-pocket expenses paid by Sponsor and its affiliates on behalf of Altimar II. If an initial business combination is not completed prior to February 9, 2023, Altimar II’s Sponsor, directors and officers, or any of their respective affiliates will not be eligible for any such reimbursement.
Pre-existing
relationships between participants in the Business Combination and the related transactions or their affiliates could give rise to actual or perceived conflicts of interest in connection with the Business Combination.
Certain of the participants in the Business Combination and the PIPE financing or their affiliates have
pre-existing
relationships that could give rise to actual or perceived conflicts of interest in connection with the

Table of Contents
Business Combination and related transactions. For example, certain of the PIPE investors are associated with entities affiliated with Sponsor. See “
Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions
.”
The same investment banks are acting as co-placement agents to Altimar II in connection with the PIPE Investment and as financial advisors to Fathom OpCo in connection with the Business Combination, and will be paid fees with respect to each role and deferred underwriting compensation from any such bank’s role as an underwriter to Altimar II in its initial public offering upon the consummation of the Business Combination, which might result in actual or potential conflicts of interest.
Fathom OpCo has engaged each of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“J.P. Morgan”)’s M&A Advisory Group and Stifel, Nicolaus & Company (“Stifel”) to act as Fathom OpCo’s financial advisors in connection with the Business Combination. Altimar II has engaged (i) J.P. Morgan’s Equity Capital Markets Group to act as co-placement agent and capital markets advisor and (ii) Stifel to act as co-placement agent (together, in their capacity as placement agents, the “Placement Agents”) in connection with the PIPE Investment. In addition, J.P. Morgan acted as an underwriter to Altimar II in its initial public offering. Pursuant to these engagements, (i) Fathom OpCo will pay J.P. Morgan and Stifel advisory fees at the Closing; (ii) Altimar II will pay J.P. Morgan and Stifel placement agent fees upon the consummation of the PIPE Investment and (iii) Altimar II will pay J.P. Morgan deferred underwriting compensation at the Closing.
Because (i) J.P. Morgan and Stifel will only be paid the advisory fees for acting as Fathom OpCo’s financial advisors upon the consummation of the Business Combination; (ii) J.P. Morgan will only be paid deferred underwriting compensation upon the consummation of the Business Combination; and (iii) J.P. Morgan and Stifel will only be paid the placement agent fees upon the consummation of the PIPE Investment, each of J.P. Morgan and Stifel have financial interests in both the PIPE Investment and the Business Combination being consummated. Such interests may have presented, and may in the future present, one or more conflicts of interest. You should consider the various roles of the investment banks with respect to the Business Combination in evaluating “Proposal No. 1—The Business Combination Proposal” and the other proposals.
The exercise of Altimar II’s directors’ and executive officers’ discretion in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the Business Combination may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether changes to the terms of the Business Combination or waivers of conditions are appropriate and in Altimar II’s shareholders’ best interest.
In the period leading up to the closing of the Business Combination, events may occur that, pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, may require Altimar II to agree to amend the Business Combination Agreement, to consent to certain actions taken by Fathom OpCo or to waive rights that Altimar II is entitled to under the Business Combination Agreement. Such events could arise because of changes in the course of Fathom OpCo’s business, a request by Fathom OpCo to undertake actions that would otherwise be prohibited by the terms of the Business Combination Agreement or the occurrence of other events that would have a material adverse effect on Fathom OpCo’s business and would entitle Altimar II to terminate the Business Combination Agreement. In any of such circumstances, it would be at Altimar II’s discretion, acting through its board of directors, to grant its consent or waive those rights. The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of the directors described in the preceding risk factors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he or they may believe is best for Altimar II and its shareholders and what he or they may believe is best for himself or themselves in determining whether or not to take the requested action. As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Altimar II does not believe there will be any changes or waivers that Altimar II’s directors and executive officers would be likely to make after shareholder approval of the Business Combination Proposal has been obtained. While certain changes could be made without further shareholder approval, Altimar II will circulate a new or amended proxy statement/prospectus and resolicit Altimar II’s shareholders if changes to the terms of the transaction that would have a material impact on its shareholders are required prior to the vote on the Business Combination Proposal.

A portion of our total outstanding shares are restricted from immediate resale but may be sold into the market in the near future. This could cause the market price of our Class A common stock to drop significantly, even if Fathom’s business is doing well.
Sales of a substantial number of shares of the Class A common stock in the public market could occur at any time. These sales, or the perception in the market that the holders of a large number of shares intend to sell shares, could reduce the market price of the Class A common stock. While the the Legacy Fathom Owners and the Altimar II Founders have agreed, and will continue to be subject, to certain restrictions regarding the transfer of the Class A common stock, these shares may be sold after the expiration of the applicable restrictions. Fathom may file one or more registration statements prior to or shortly after the closing of the Business Combination to provide for the resale of such shares from time to time. As restrictions on resale end and the registration statements are available for use, the market price of the Class A common stock could decline if the holders of currently restricted shares sell them or are perceived by the market as intending to sell them.
If the sale of some or all of the PIPE Investment fails to close and sufficient shareholders exercise their Redemption Rights in connection with the Business Combination, Altimar II may lack sufficient funds to consummate the Business Combination.
In connection with the signing of the Business Combination Agreement, Altimar II and Fathom OpCo entered into Subscription Agreements with the PIPE Investors which provide for the purchase of an aggregate of 8,000,000 shares of Class A common stock (the “PIPE Securities”) following the Domestication and immediately prior to the Closing in a private placement to close concurrently with, and contingent upon, the closing of the Business Combination, for a purchase price of $10.00 per share, or an aggregate of $80.0 million. These purchases will be made regardless of whether any Class A ordinary shares are redeemed by Altimar II’s Public Shareholders. The proceeds from the sale of PIPE Securities will be part of the Business Combination consideration. In addition, prior to giving effect to the exercise of any Redemption Rights, the Trust Account has approximately $345,000,000, plus accrued interest since the completion of the Altimar II IPO. However, if the sale of the PIPE Securities does not close by reason of the failure by some or all of the PIPE Investors to fund the purchase price for their PIPE Securities, for example, and a sufficient number of holders of Class A ordinary shares exercise their redemption tights in connection with the Business Combination, we may lack sufficient funds to consummate the Business Combination. Additionally, the PIPE Investors’ obligations to purchase the PIPE Securities are subject to termination prior to the closing of the sale of the PIPE Securities by mutual written consent of Altimar II, Fathom OpCo and each of the PIPE Investors, or if the Business Combination is not consummated on or before December 31, 2021. The PIPE Investors’ obligations to purchase the PIPE Securities are subject to fulfillment of customary closing conditions, including that the Business Combination must be consummated substantially concurrently with, and immediately following, the purchase of PIPE Securities. In the event of any such failure to fund, any obligation is so terminated or any such condition is not satisfied and not waived, we may not be able to obtain additional funds to account for such shortfall on terms favorable to us or at all. Any such shortfall would also reduce the amount of funds that we have available for working capital of the post-business combination Company. While the PIPE Investors represented to us that they have sufficient funds to satisfy their obligations under the respective Subscription Agreements, we have not obligated them to reserve funds for such obligations. The Business Combination Agreement includes a minimum condition to Fathom OpCo’s obligation to consummate the Business Combination that at least $313.0 million in cash is available to Altimar II from the PIPE Investment together with any cash remaining in the Trust Account after giving effect to any exercise of Redemption Rights by Altimar II’s shareholders.

Subsequent to the completion of the Business Combination, Fathom may be required to take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on its financial condition and its share price, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment.
Altimar II cannot assure you that the due diligence Altimar II has conducted on Fathom will reveal all material issues that may be present with regard to Fathom, or that factors outside of Altimar II’s or Fathom’s control will not later arise. As a result of unidentified issues or factors outside of Altimar II’s or Fathom’s control, Fathom may be forced to later write-down or
write-off
assets, restructure operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in reporting losses. Even if Altimar II’s due diligence successfully identifies certain risks, unexpected risks may arise and previously known risks may materialize in a manner not consistent with the preliminary risk analysis conducted by Altimar II. Even though these charges may be
non-cash
items that would not have an immediate impact on Fathom’s liquidity, the fact that Fathom reports charges of this nature could contribute to negative market perceptions about Fathom or its securities. In addition, charges of this nature may cause Fathom to violate leverage or other covenants to which it may be subject. Accordingly, any shareholders who choose to remain shareholders following the Business Combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their shares from any such write-down or write-downs.
Altimar II’s Public Shareholders will experience dilution due to the issuance to Legacy Fathom Owners of securities entitling them to a significant voting stake in Fathom.
Based upon the assumptions described under the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information,” Altimar II’s current Public Shareholders, the PIPE Investors and the Altimar II Founders would hold in the aggregate approximately 25%, 5.8% and 5.3%, respectively, of the outstanding economic interests in Fathom (in each case, assuming no redemptions by Altimar II’s Public Shareholders), following the consummation of the Business Combination. Assuming maximum redemptions by Altimar II’s Public Shareholders and subject to the other assumptions described under the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information”, Altimar II’s
non-redeeming
Public Shareholders, the PIPE Investors and the Altimar II Founders would hold in the aggregate approximately 17.0%, 5.8% and 4.7%, respectively, of the outstanding economic interests in Fathom following the consummation of the Business Combination. Without limiting the other assumptions described under the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information,” these ownership percentages do not take into account:
 
   
any warrants or options to purchase the Class A common stock, including the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants, that will be outstanding following the Business Combination;
 
   
any equity awards that may be issued by Fathom; and
 
   
the Earnout Shares or the Sponsor Earnout Shares.
If any shares of Class A common stock are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination, the percentage of Fathom’s outstanding voting stock held by the current holders of Altimar II will decrease relative to the percentage held if none of the Class A ordinary shares are redeemed. To the extent that any of the outstanding Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants are exercised for shares of Class A common stock, Altimar II’s existing shareholders may experience substantial dilution. The Altimar II Founders’ pro forma economic ownership of Fathom (assuming exercise of the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants) is set forth below:

This presentation assumes maximum redemptions. The assumptions under the maximum redemptions scenario include: Public Shareholders redeem 11,200,000 shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares, the maximum number of shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares that may be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account that would still allow Altimar II to satisfy the condition precedent in the Business Combination Agreement that as of immediately prior to the Business Combination, Altimar II have an Available Cash Amount of at least $313 million. This calculation assumes that the full $80 million in aggregate proceeds are received from the PIPE Investment and that the amount in the Trust Account (prior to any redemptions) is equal to $345 million (the amount in the Trust Account as of March 31, 2021), resulting in an aggregate redemption payment (based on an estimated redemption price per share of approximately $10) of $112 million and available Trust Account proceeds at closing of approximately $233 million.
(3)
Percentage calculations assume the exercise and conversion of: (i) 8,625,000 Public Warrants and (ii) 9,900,000 Private Placement Warrants held by Sponsor. Percentage calculations exclude: (i) the Earnout Shares and the Sponsor Earnout Shares (each as defined herein), all of which will be unvested as of the Closing and (ii) shares and awards issuable under the 2021 Omnibus Plan.
(4)
Holdings of Altimar II Founders consists of (i) the shares of Class A common stock held by the Sponsor and the other Altimar II Founders upon automatic conversion of their Class B ordinary shares into Class C common stock as a result of the Domestication which shares of Class C common stock will then convert into Class A common stock and (ii) 9,900,000 shares issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants held by Sponsor. Holdings of Sponsor excludes 1,267,500 shares of Class A common stock held by Sponsor that constitute Sponsor Earnout Shares (as defined herein).
Altimar II Public Shareholders who do not redeem their Class A ordinary shares will have a reduced ownership and voting interest after the Business Combination and will exercise less influence over management of Fathom.
Upon the issuance of Fathom Class A and Class B common stock in connection with the Business Combination, the percentage ownership of Public Shareholders who do not redeem their shares of Class A ordinary shares will be diluted. The percentage of the Fathom Class A common stock that will be owned by Public Shareholders as a group will vary based on the number of Class A ordinary shares for which the holders thereof request redemption in connection with the Business Combination. To illustrate the potential ownership percentages of Public Shareholders under different redemption levels, based on the number of issued and outstanding shares of Altimar II Class A and Class B ordinary shares on June 30, 2021, and based on the Fathom Class A and Class B Common Stock expected to be issued in the Business Combination and the Class A Common Stock expected to be issued as part of the PIPE Investment,
non-redeeming
Public Shareholders, as a group, will own:
 
   
if there are no redemptions of Public Shares, 25% of Fathom’s Common Stock expected to be outstanding immediately after the Business Combination;
 
   
if there are interim low redemptions of 25% of maximum redemptions, 23% of Fathom’s Common Stock expected to be outstanding immediately after the Business Combination;
 
   
if there are interim high redemptions of 75% of maximum redemptions, 19% of Fathom’s Common Stock expected to be outstanding immediately after the Business Combination; or
 
   
if there are maximum redemptions, 17% of Fathom’s Common Stock expected to be outstanding immediately after the Business Combination.
Because of this, Public Shareholders, as a group, will have less influence on the board of directors, management and policies of Fathom than they now have on the board of directors, management and policies of Altimar II. For further discussion of the assumptions underlying the no, low, high and maximum redemptions scenarios set forth above, please see “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”

Table of Contents
The ownership percentage with respect to Fathom following the Business Combination does not take into account the following potential issuances of securities, which will result in further dilution to Public Shareholders who do not redeem their Public Shares:
 
   
the issuance of up to 8,625,000 shares upon exercise of the Public Warrants at a price of $11.50 per share;
 
   
the issuance of up to 9,900,000 shares upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants held by the Sponsor at a price of $11.50 per share;
 
   
the issuance of the Earnout Shares and the Sponsor Earnout Shares (each as defined herein); and
 
   
the issuance of shares under the 2021 Omnibus Plan.
If all such shares were issued immediately after the Business Combination, based on the number of issued and outstanding shares of Altimar II Class A and Class B ordinary shares, and based on the Class A and Class B common stock expected to be issued in the Business Combination and the Class A common stock expected to be issued as part of the PIPE Investment,
non-redeeming
Public Shareholders, as a group, would own:
 
   
if there are no redemptions of Public Shares, 24% of Fathom’s Common Stock outstanding assuming all such shares were issued immediately after the Business Combination;
 
   
if there are interim low redemptions of 25% of maximum redemptions, 23% of Fathom’s Common Stock outstanding assuming all such shares were issued immediately after the Business Combination;
 
   
if there are interim high redemptions of 75% of maximum redemptions, 20% of Fathom’s Common Stock outstanding assuming all such shares were issued immediately after the Business Combination; or
 
   
if there are maximum redemptions of the outstanding Public Shares, 18% of Fathom’s Common Stock outstanding assuming all such shares were issued immediately after the Business Combination.
Altimar II has not obtained an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent firm, and consequently, you may have no assurance from an independent source that the terms of the Business Combination are fair to Altimar II from a financial point of view.
The Altimar II Board did not obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in connection with their determination to approve the Business Combination. Altimar II is not required to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that is a member of FINRA or from another independent firm that the price it is paying is fair to Altimar II from a financial point of view. In analyzing the Business Combination, the Altimar II Board and Altimar II’s management conducted due diligence on Fathom OpCo and researched the industry in which Fathom OpCo operates and concluded that the Business Combination was in the best interest of its shareholders. Accordingly, Altimar II’s shareholders will be relying solely on the judgment of the Altimar II Board in determining the value of the Business Combination, and the Altimar II Board may not have properly valued such business. The lack of a third-party valuation or fairness opinion may also lead an increased number of shareholders to vote against the Business Combination or demand redemption of their shares, which could potentially impact our ability to consummate the Business Combination. For more information about our decision-making process, see the section entitled “
The Business Combination Agreement — Altimar II’s Board of Director’s Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination
.”
If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved, and an insufficient number of votes have been obtained to authorize the consummation of the Business Combination and the Domestication, the Altimar II board of directors will not have the ability to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date in order to solicit further votes, and, therefore, the Business Combination will not be approved, and, therefore, the Business Combination may not be consummated.
The Altimar II Board is seeking approval to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date or dates if, at the Special Meeting, based upon the tabulated votes, there are insufficient votes to approve each of the Condition

Precedent Proposals or they determine that one or more of the closing conditions under the Business Combination Agreement is not satisfied or waived. If the Adjournment Proposal is not approved, the Altimar II Board will not have the ability to adjourn the Special Meeting to a later date and, therefore, will not have more time to solicit votes to approve the Condition Precedent Proposals. In such event, the Business Combination would not be completed.
The unaudited pro forma financial information included in the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” may not be representative of Fathom’s results if the Business Combination is completed.
Altimar II and Fathom OpCo currently operate as separate companies and have had no prior history as a combined entity. The pro forma financial information included in this proxy statement/prospectus is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial position or results of operations that would have actually occurred had the Business Combination been completed at or as of the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of the future operating results or financial position of Fathom OpCo. The pro forma statement of operations does not reflect future nonrecurring charges resulting from the Business Combination. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect future events that may occur after the Business Combination and does not consider potential impacts of future market conditions on revenues or expenses. The pro forma financial information included in the section entitled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” has been derived from Altimar II’s and Fathom OpCo’s historical financial statements and certain adjustments and assumptions have been made regarding Fathom after giving effect to the Business Combination. There may be differences between preliminary estimates in the pro forma financial information and the final acquisition accounting, which could result in material differences from the pro forma information presented in this proxy statement/prospectus in respect of the estimated financial position and results of operations of Fathom.
In addition, the assumptions used in preparing the pro forma financial information may not prove to be accurate and other factors may affect Fathom’s financial condition or results of operations following the Closing. Any potential decline in Fathom’s financial condition or results of operations may cause significant variations in the stock price of Fathom.
During the pendency of the Business Combination, Altimar II will not be able to solicit, initiate or take any action to facilitate or encourage any inquiries or the making, submission or announcement of, or enter into a business combination with another party because of restrictions in the Business Combination Agreement.
During the pendency of the Business Combination, Altimar II will not be able to enter into a business combination with another party because of
non-solicitation
provisions in the Business Combination Agreement which prohibit Altimar II from soliciting other business combinations. If the Business Combination is not completed, these
non-solicitation
provisions will make it more difficult to complete an alternative business combination following the termination of the Business Combination Agreement due to the passage of time during which these provisions have remained in effect.
Because Altimar II is incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, in the event the Business Combination is not completed, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests, and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. Federal courts may be limited.
Because Altimar II is currently incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands, you may face difficulties in protecting your interests and your ability to protect your rights through the U.S. Federal courts may be limited prior to the Domestication. Altimar II is currently an exempted company under the laws of the Cayman Islands. As a result, it may be difficult for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon Altimar II’s directors or officers, or enforce judgments obtained in the United States courts against Altimar II’s directors or officers.

Table of Contents
Until the Domestication is effected, Altimar II’s corporate affairs are governed by the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Cayman Islands Companies Act and the common law of the Cayman Islands. The rights of shareholders to take action against the directors, actions by minority shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of its directors to Altimar II under the laws of the Cayman Islands are to a large extent governed by the common law of the Cayman Islands. The common law of the Cayman Islands is derived in part from comparatively limited judicial precedent in the Cayman Islands as well as from English common law, the decisions of whose courts are of persuasive authority, but are not binding on a court in the Cayman Islands. The rights of Altimar II’s shareholders and the fiduciary responsibilities of its directors under Cayman Islands law are different from what they would be under statutes or judicial precedent in some jurisdictions in the United States. In particular, the Cayman Islands has a different body of securities laws as compared to the United States, and certain states, such as Delaware, may have more fully developed and judicially interpreted bodies of corporate law. In addition, Cayman Islands companies may not have standing to initiate a shareholders derivative action in a Federal court of the United States.
The courts of the Cayman Islands are unlikely (i) to recognize or enforce against Altimar II judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state; and (ii) in original actions brought in the Cayman Islands, to impose liabilities against Altimar II predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States or any state, so far as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature. In those circumstances, although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the Cayman Islands will recognize and enforce a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for which judgment has been given provided certain conditions are met. For a foreign judgment to be enforced in the Cayman Islands, such judgment must be final and conclusive and for a liquidated sum, and must not be in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, inconsistent with a Cayman Islands judgment in respect of the same matter, impeachable on the grounds of fraud or obtained in a manner, or be of a kind the enforcement of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands (awards of punitive or multiple damages may well be held to be contrary to public policy). A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.
The Public Shareholders may have more difficulty in protecting their interests in the face of actions taken by management, members of the Altimar II Board or controlling shareholders than they would as public shareholders of a United States company.
Fathom will be a holding company and its only material asset after completion of the Business Combination will be its interest in Fathom OpCo, and it is accordingly dependent upon distributions made by Fathom OpCo to pay dividends, taxes, and other expenses, including payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement.
Upon completion of the Business Combination, Fathom will be a holding company with no material assets other than its New Fathom Units. As a result, Fathom will have no independent means of generating revenue or cash flow. Fathom’s ability to pay dividends, taxes, and other expenses, including payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, will depend on the financial results and cash flows of Fathom OpCo and its subsidiaries and the distributions Fathom receives from Fathom OpCo. Deterioration in the financial condition, earnings or cash flow of Fathom OpCo and its subsidiaries for any reason could limit or impair Fathom OpCo’s ability to pay such distributions. Additionally, to the extent that Fathom needs funds and Fathom OpCo and/or its subsidiaries are restricted from making such distributions under applicable law or regulation or under the terms of any financing arrangements, or Fathom OpCo and/or its subsidiaries are otherwise unable to provide such funds, it could materially adversely affect Fathom’s liquidity and financial condition.
Subject to the discussion herein, Fathom OpCo will continue to be treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, as such, generally will not be subject to any entity-level U.S. federal income tax.
 
86

Table of Contents
Instead, taxable income will be allocated to holders of New Fathom Units. Accordingly, Fathom will be required to pay income taxes on its allocable share of any net taxable income of Fathom OpCo. Under the terms of the Fathom Operating Agreement, Fathom OpCo is obligated to make tax distributions to holders of the New Fathom Units (including Fathom) calculated at certain assumed tax rates. In addition to tax expenses, Fathom will also incur expenses related to its operations, including Fathom’s payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement, which could be significant, and some of which will be reimbursed by Fathom OpCo (excluding payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement). Fathom intends to cause Fathom OpCo to make ordinary distributions and tax distributions to holders of New Fathom Units on a pro rata basis in amounts sufficient to cover all applicable taxes, relevant operating expenses, payments by Fathom under the Tax Receivable Agreement and dividends, if any, declared by Fathom. However, as discussed above, Fathom OpCo’s ability to make such distributions may be subject to various limitations and restrictions including, but not limited to, retention of amounts necessary to satisfy the obligations of Fathom OpCo and its subsidiaries and restrictions on distributions that would violate any applicable restrictions contained in Fathom OpCo’s or its subsidiaries’ debt agreements, or any applicable law, or that would have the effect of rendering Fathom OpCo or a subsidiary insolvent. To the extent that Fathom is unable to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement for any reason, such payments will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid; provided, however, that nonpayment for a specified period may constitute a breach of a material obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement and therefore accelerate payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement, which could be substantial.
Additionally, although Fathom OpCo and its subsidiaries generally will not be subject to any entity-level U.S. federal income tax, they may be liable for audit adjustments to prior year tax returns, absent an election to the contrary. In the event Fathom OpCo’s calculations of taxable income are incorrect, Fathom OpCo, its subsidiaries and/or their respective owners, including Fathom, in later years may be subject to material liabilities as a result of such audits.
If Fathom OpCo were treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax or state tax purposes, then the amount available for distribution by Fathom OpCo could be substantially reduced and the value of Fathom common stock could be adversely affected.
An entity that would otherwise be classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes (such as Fathom OpCo) may nonetheless be treated as, and taxable as, a corporation if it is a “publicly traded partnership” unless an exception to such treatment applies. An entity that would otherwise be classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes will be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” if interests in such entity are traded on an established securities market or interests in such entity are readily tradable on a secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof. If Fathom OpCo were determined to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” (and taxable as a corporation) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, Fathom OpCo would be taxable on its income at the U.S. federal income tax rates applicable to corporations and distributions by Fathom OpCo to its partners (including Fathom) could be taxable as dividends to such partners to the extent of the earnings and profits of Fathom OpCo. In addition, Fathom would no longer have the benefit of increases in the tax basis of Fathom OpCo’s assets as a result of exchanges of New Fathom Units for shares of Fathom Class A common stock. Pursuant to the Fathom Operating Agreement, the Exchange TRA Parties (as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement) may, from time to time, subject to the terms of the Fathom Operating Agreement, exchange their interests in Fathom OpCo and have such interests redeemed by Fathom OpCo for cash or Fathom stock. While such exchanges could be treated as trading in the interests of Fathom OpCo for purposes of testing “publicly traded partnership” status, the Fathom Operating Agreement requires Fathom to impose restrictions on exchanges that Fathom determines to be necessary or advisable so that Fathom OpCo is not treated as a “publicly traded partnership” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, while such position is not free from doubt, Fathom OpCo is expected to be operated such that it is not treated as a “publicly traded partnership” taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and we intend to take the position that Fathom OpCo is not so treated as a result of exchanges of its interests pursuant to the Fathom Operating Agreement.

Table of Contents
Pursuant to the Tax Receivable Agreement, Fathom will be required to make payments to Blocker TRA Parties and Exchange TRA Parties (each as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement) for certain tax benefits Fathom may claim and those payments may be substantial.
The Exchange TRA Parties (as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement) will sell or exchange certain interests in Fathom OpCo pursuant to the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and may in the future exchange their New Fathom Units, together with the cancellation of an equal number of shares of Class B common stock, for shares of Fathom Class A common stock, or cash pursuant to the Fathom Operating Agreement. Such transactions are expected to result in increases in Fathom’s allocable share of the tax basis of the tangible and intangible assets of Fathom OpCo and its subsidiaries. These increases in tax basis may increase (for income tax purposes) depreciation and amortization deductions and therefore reduce the amount of income or franchise tax that Fathom would otherwise be required to pay in the future had such sales and exchanges never occurred. Additionally, in connection with the closing of the Business Combination Agreement, Fathom will acquire the Fathom Blockers from the Blocker TRA Parties (as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement). Certain tax assets and attributes of the Fathom Blockers may be available to reduce the amount of income or franchise tax that Fathom would otherwise be required to pay in the future had it not acquired the Fathom Blockers.
In connection with the Business Combination, Fathom will enter into the Tax Receivable Agreement, which generally provides for the payment by it of 85% of the net cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state and local, income and franchise tax (computed using certain assumptions to address the impact of state and local taxes) that it actually realizes (or in certain cases is deemed to realize) as a result of tax basis in certain assets and other tax attributes of the Fathom Blockers and of Fathom at the time of the Business Combination (including as a result of any cash payments made to FathomOpCo in exchange for New Fathom Units pursuant to the Business Combination), any increases in tax basis and other tax benefits related to the payment of cash consideration pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and any increases in tax basis and other tax benefits resulting from any exchange of New Fathom Units for shares of Class A common stock or cash in the future and tax benefits related to entering into and making payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Fathom will retain the benefit of the remaining 15% of such tax savings.
Payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement are the obligation of Fathom and not of Fathom OpCo. The actual increase in Fathom’s allocable share of Fathom OpCo’s tax basis in its assets, as well as estimating the amount and timing of any payments due to the TRA Parties based on future exchanges under the Tax Receivable Agreement, is by its nature, imprecise. For purposes of the Tax Receivable Agreement, savings in tax generally are calculated by comparing Fathom’s actual tax liability (determined by using the actual applicable U.S. federal income tax rate and assumed combined state and local income tax rate) to the amount that Fathom would have been required to pay had it not been able to utilize any of the tax benefits subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement. The amounts payable, as well as the timing of any payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement will vary depending upon a number of factors, including the timing of exchanges, the market price of the Class A common stock at the time of the exchange, the extent to which such exchanges are taxable, the depreciation and amortization periods that will apply to any increases in tax basis, the U.S. federal income tax rate then applicable, and the amount and timing of the recognition of Fathom’s income. While many of the factors that will determine the amount of payments that Fathom will make under the Tax Receivable Agreement are outside of its control, Fathom expects that the payments it will make under the Tax Receivable Agreement will be substantial. At this time, Fathom is not able to provide a meaningful range of the total amount of payments to be made under the Tax Receivable Agreement resulting from future exchanges of New Fathom Units for shares of Class A common stock with any specificity or reliability for the reasons discussed above. However, Fathom estimates that the total amount of payments anticipated to be made in the future as a result of the tax basis of Fathom at the time of the Business Combination will be $89.8 million assuming there is no redemption of outstanding Public Shares in connection with the Business Combination and $60.9 million assuming there is a maximum redemption of outstanding Public Shares in connection with the Business Combination. The amount of these payments is based upon the assumptions that (i) Fathom’s share price at the Business Combination will be equal to $10 per share,
 
88

Table of Contents
(ii) there are no changes in future income tax rates or tax laws, (iii) Fathom is able to fully utilize tax attributes arising in connection with the Business Combination in future tax periods, and (iv) there is no acceleration of amounts due under the Tax Receivable Agreement on account of early termination. The fair value of the liability associated with these payments is recognized in the
“Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2021.”
Any payments made by Fathom under the Tax Receivable Agreement will generally reduce the amount of overall cash flow that might have otherwise been available to Fathom. To the extent that Fathom is unable to make timely payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement for any reason, the unpaid amounts will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid; however, nonpayment for a specified period may constitute a breach of a material obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement and therefore accelerate payments due under the Tax Receivable Agreement, as further described below. Furthermore, Fathom’s future obligation to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement could make Fathom a less attractive target for an acquisition, particularly in the case of an acquirer that cannot use some or all of the tax benefits that may be realized or deemed realized under the Tax Receivable Agreement. See the section entitled “
The Business
Combination Agreement
— Related
Agreements
— Tax Receivable
Agreemen
t
.”
In certain cases, payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement may exceed the actual tax benefits Fathom realizes or be accelerated.
Payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement will be based on the tax reporting positions that Fathom determines under the procedures and assumptions set forth in the Tax Receivable Agreement, and the IRS or another taxing authority may challenge all or any part of the tax basis increases, as well as other tax positions that Fathom takes, and a court may sustain such a challenge. In the event that any tax benefits initially claimed by Fathom are disallowed, the Exchange TRA Parties and the Blocker TRA Parties (each as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement) will not be required to reimburse Fathom for any excess payments that may previously have been made under the Tax Receivable Agreement, for example, due to adjustments resulting from examinations by taxing authorities. Rather, excess payments made to such holders will be netted against any future cash payments otherwise required to be made by Fathom under the Tax Receivable Agreement, if any, after the determination of such excess. However, a challenge to any tax benefits initially claimed by Fathom may not arise for a number of years following the initial time of such payment or, even if challenged early, such excess cash payment may be greater than the amount of future cash payments that Fathom might otherwise be required to make under the terms of the Tax Receivable Agreement and, as a result, there might not be future cash payments against which to net. Actual tax benefits realized by Fathom may differ from tax benefits calculated under the Tax Receivable Agreement as a result of the use of certain assumptions in the Tax Receivable Agreement, including the use of an assumed weighted-average state and local income tax rate to calculate tax benefits. As a result, in certain circumstances Fathom could make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement in excess of Fathom’s actual income or franchise tax savings, which could materially impair Fathom’s financial condition.
Moreover, the Tax Receivable Agreement provides that, in certain events, including a change of control, breach of a material obligation under the Tax Receivable Agreement, or Fathom’s exercise of early termination rights, Fathom’s obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement will accelerate and Fathom will be required to make a lump-sum cash payment to the Exchange TRA Parties and the Blocker TRA Parties (each as defined in the Tax Receivable Agreement) and other applicable parties to the Tax Receivable Agreement equal to the present value of all forecasted future payments that would have otherwise been made under the Tax Receivable Agreement, which lump-sum payment would be based on certain assumptions, including those relating to Fathom’s future taxable income. The lump-sum payment could be substantial and could exceed the actual tax benefits that Fathom realizes subsequent to such payment because such payment would be calculated assuming, among other things, that Fathom would have certain tax benefits available to it and that Fathom would be able to use the potential tax benefits in future years. Assuming no material changes in the relevant tax law, we expect that if we experienced a change of control or the Tax Receivable Agreement were terminated immediately after
 
89

Table of Contents
the Business Combination, the estimated lump-sum payment would be approximately $262.8 million (calculated using a discount rate equal to a per annum rate of LIBOR plus 100 basis points, applied against an undiscounted liability of approximately $295.9 million).
There may be a material negative effect on Fathom’s liquidity if the payments required to be made by Fathom under the Tax Receivable Agreement exceed the actual income or franchise tax savings that Fathom realizes. Furthermore, Fathom’s obligations to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement could also have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations or other changes of control.
Fathom OpCo may directly or indirectly make distributions of cash to us substantially in excess of the amounts we use to make distributions to our stockholders and pay our expenses (including our taxes and payments by Fathom under the Tax Receivable Agreement). To the extent we do not distribute such excess cash as dividends to our shareholders, the direct or indirect holders of New Fathom Units would benefit from any value attributable to such cash as a result of their ownership of our stock upon an exchange of their New Fathom Units.
Following the Business Combination, we will receive a pro rata portion of any distributions made by Fathom OpCo. Any cash received from such distributions will first be used to satisfy any tax liability and then to make any payments required to be made by Fathom under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Subject to having available cash and subject to limitations imposed by applicable law and contractual restrictions, the Fathom Operating Agreement requires Fathom OpCo to make certain distributions to holders of New Fathom Units (including Fathom) pro rata to facilitate the payment of taxes with respect to the income of Fathom OpCo that is allocated to them. To the extent that the tax distributions we directly or indirectly receive exceed the amounts we actually require to pay taxes, Tax Receivable Agreement payments and other expenses (which is likely to be the case given that the assumed tax rate for such distributions will generally exceed our effective tax rate), we will not be required to distribute such excess cash. Our board of directors may, in its sole discretion, choose to use such excess cash for certain purposes, including to make distributions to the holders of our stock. Unless and until our board of directors chooses, in its sole discretion, to declare a distribution, we will have no obligation to distribute such cash (or other available cash other than any declared dividend) to our stockholders.
No adjustments to the exchange ratio of New Fathom Units for shares of our common stock will be made as a result of either (i) any cash distribution by us or (ii) any cash that we retain and do not distribute to our stockholders. To the extent we do not distribute such cash as dividends and instead, for example, hold such cash balances or use such cash for certain other purposes, this may result in shares of our stock increasing in value relative to the New Fathom Units. The holders of New Fathom Units may benefit from any value attributable to such cash balances if they acquire shares of our stock in an exchange of New Fathom Units.
The Domestication may result in adverse tax consequences for holders of Altimar II ordinary shares and warrants, including Public Shareholders exercising Redemption Rights.
U.S. holders (as defined in “
Material
U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Holders
” below) may be subject to U.S. federal income tax as a result of the Domestication. As discussed more fully under “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” below, it is the opinion of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP that the Domestication should qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(l)(F) of the Code. However, due to the absence of direct guidance on the application of Section 368(a)(1)(F) to a statutory conversion of a corporation holding only investment-type assets such as Altimar II, this result is not entirely clear.
Assuming the Domestication qualifies as a reorganization under Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code, U.S. holders of Altimar II ordinary shares will be subject to Section 367(b) of the Code, and as a result:
 
   
a U.S. holder of Altimar II ordinary shares whose Altimar II ordinary shares have a fair market value of less than $50,000 on the date of the Domestication should not recognize any gain or loss and generally

should not be required to include any part of Altimar II’s earnings in income pursuant to the Domestication;
 
   
a U.S. holder of Altimar II ordinary shares whose Altimar II ordinary shares have a fair market value of $50,000 or more on the date of the Domestication, but who on the date of the Domestication owns (actually and constructively) less than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Altimar II ordinary shares entitled to vote and less than 10% of the total value of all classes of Altimar II ordinary shares will generally recognize gain (but not loss) with respect to the Domestication, as if such U.S. holder exchanged its Altimar II ordinary shares for Fathom common stock in a taxable transaction. As an alternative to recognizing gain, such U.S. holders may file an election to include in income as a dividend the “all earnings and profits amount” (as defined in Treasury Regulation
Section 1.367(b)-2(d))
attributable to their Altimar II ordinary shares, provided certain other requirements are satisfied. Altimar II does not expect that Altimar II’s cumulative earnings and profits will be material at the time of Domestication; and
 
   
a U.S. holder of Altimar II ordinary shares who on the date of the Domestication owns (actually and constructively) 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of Altimar II ordinary shares entitled to vote or 10% or more of the total value of all classes of Altimar II ordinary shares will generally be required to include in income as a dividend the “all earnings and profits amount” (as defined in Treasury Regulation
Section 1.367(b)-2(d))
attributable to its Altimar II ordinary shares. Any such U.S. holder that is a corporation may, under certain circumstances, effectively be exempt from taxation on a portion or all of the deemed dividend pursuant to Section 245A of the Code. Altimar II does not expect that Altimar II’s cumulative earnings and profits will be material at the time of the Domestication.
If Altimar II were to be treated as a PFIC, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, certain U.S. Holders may be subject to adverse tax consequences as a result of the Domestication. Pursuant to a start-up exception, a corporation will not be a PFIC for the first taxable year the corporation has gross income (the “start-up year”), if (i) no predecessor of the corporation was a PFIC; (ii) the corporation satisfies the IRS that it will not be a PFIC for either of the first two taxable years following the start-up year; and (iii) the corporation is not in fact a PFIC for either of those two years. Altimar II believes, although subject to uncertainty, that Altimar II’s 2021 taxable year may be the start-up year and that Altimar II may not be treated as a PFIC for 2021. The application of the start-up exception will depend, in part, on whether the Domestication is consummated in 2021. In addition, the application of the start-up exception to the present transaction involves the application of complicated rules with respect to which there is no clear authority. Accordingly, there can be no assurance with respect to Altimar II’s status as a PFIC for 2021. All holders are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning the application of the PFIC rules to Altimar II under such holder’s particular circumstances, including the potential to make a “qualified electing fund” election or a protective “qualified electing fund” election. For a more complete discussion of the requirements to qualify for the start-up exception and the potential application of the PFIC rules to U.S. holders as a result of the Domestication, see “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations — U.S. Holders — PFIC Considerations.”
Additionally, the Domestication may cause
non-U.S.
holders (as defined in “
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations —
Non-U.S.
Holders
” below) to become subject to U.S. federal withholding taxes on any dividends paid in respect of such
non-U.S.
holder’s Fathom common stock after the Domestication.
Furthermore, because the Domestication will occur immediately prior to the redemption of U.S. holders that exercise Redemption Rights, U.S. holders exercising Redemption Rights will be subject to the potential tax consequences of the Domestication.
The tax consequences of the Domestication are complex and will depend on a holder’s particular circumstances. All holders are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors for a full description and understanding of the tax consequences of the Domestication, including the applicability and effect of U.S.

federal, state, local and foreign income and other tax laws. For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Domestication, see the discussion in the section entitled “
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations.
Fathom’s business and operations could be negatively affected if it becomes subject to any securities litigation or shareholder activism, which could cause Fathom to incur significant expense, hinder execution of business and growth strategy and impact its stock price.
In the past, following periods of volatility in the market price of a company’s securities, securities class action litigation has often been brought against that company. Shareholder activism, which could take many forms or arise in a variety of situations, has been increasing recently. Volatility in the stock price of Fathom’s Class A common stock or other reasons may in the future cause it to become the target of securities litigation or shareholder activism. Securities litigation and shareholder activism, including potential proxy contests, could result in substantial costs and divert management’s and the board of directors’ attention and resources from Fathom’s business. Additionally, such securities litigation and shareholder activism could give rise to perceived uncertainties as to Fathom’s future, adversely affect its relationships with service providers and make it more difficult to attract and retain qualified personnel. Also, Fathom may be required to incur significant legal fees and other expenses related to any securities litigation and activist shareholder matters. Further, its stock price could be subject to significant fluctuation or otherwise be adversely affected by the events, risks and uncertainties of any securities litigation and shareholder activism.
In connection with the Business Combination, the Sponsor, the other Altimar II Founder, directors, executive officers, advisors and their affiliates may elect to purchase shares or Public Warrants from Public Shareholders, which may influence a vote on a proposed business combination and reduce the public “float” of our Class A ordinary shares.
In connection with the Business Combination, the Sponsor, the other Altimar II Founders, directors, executive officers, advisors or their affiliates may purchase shares or Public Warrants in privately negotiated transactions or in the open market either prior to or following the completion of our initial business combination, although they are under no obligation to do so. However, other than as expressly stated herein, they have no current commitments, plans or intentions to engage in such transactions and have not formulated any terms or conditions for any such transactions. None of the funds in the Trust Account will be used to purchase shares or Public Warrants in such transactions.
In the event that the Sponsor, the other Altimar II Founders, directors, executive officers, advisors or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public shareholders who have already elected to exercise their Redemption Rights, such selling shareholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. The purpose of any such purchases of shares would be to vote such shares in favor of the Business Combination and thereby increase the likelihood of obtaining shareholder approval of the Business Combination or to satisfy the Available Cash Amount Condition, where it appears that such requirement would otherwise not be met. The purpose of any such purchases of Public Warrants would be to reduce the number of Public Warrants outstanding or to vote such warrants on any matters submitted to the warrant holders for approval in connection with our initial business combination. Any such purchases of our securities may result in the completion of our initial business combination that may not otherwise have been possible. Any such purchases will be reported pursuant to Section 13 and Section 16 of the Exchange Act to the extent such purchasers are subject to such reporting requirements.
In addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of our Class A ordinary shares or Public Warrants and the number of beneficial holders of our securities may be reduced, possibly making it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing or trading of our securities on a national securities exchange.

There is no guarantee that a shareholder’s decision whether to redeem its shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account will put the shareholder in a better future economic position.
We can give no assurance as to the price at which a shareholder may be able to sell its Class A common stock in the future following the completion of the Business Combination or any alternative business combination. Certain events following the consummation of any initial business combination, including the Business Combination, may cause an increase in our share price, and may result in a lower value realized now than a shareholder might realize in the future had the shareholder not redeemed its shares. Similarly, if a shareholder does not redeem its shares, the shareholder will bear the risk of ownership of the Class A common stock after the consummation of the Business Combination, and there can be no assurance that a shareholder can sell its shares in the future for a greater amount than the redemption price set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. A shareholder should consult the shareholder’s own financial advisor for assistance on how this may affect his, her or its individual situation.
If a shareholder fails to receive notice of our offer to redeem our Class A ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination, such shares may not be redeemed.
We will comply with the proxy rules when conducting redemptions in connection with the Business Combination. Despite our compliance with these rules, if a shareholder fails to receive our proxy solicitation, such shareholder may not become aware of the opportunity to redeem its shares. In addition, the proxy solicitation that we furnish to holders of our Class A ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination describes the various procedures that must be complied with in order to validly redeem or tender Class A ordinary shares. In the event that a shareholder fails to comply with these procedures, its shares may not be redeemed.
If you or a “group” of shareholders are deemed to hold in excess of 15% of our Class A ordinary shares, you will lose the ability to redeem all such shares in excess of 15% of our Class A ordinary shares.
The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Altimar II provide that a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking Redemption Rights with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the shares sold in the IPO without our prior consent, which we refer to as the “Excess Shares.” However, we would not be restricting our shareholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including Excess Shares) for or against the Business Combination. Your inability to redeem the Excess Shares will reduce your influence over our ability to complete the Business Combination and you could suffer a material loss on your investment in us if you sell Excess Shares in open market transactions. Additionally, you will not receive redemption distributions with respect to the Excess Shares if we complete the Business Combination. As a result, you will continue to hold that number of shares exceeding 15% and, in order to dispose of such shares, would be required to sell your shares in open market transactions, potentially at a loss.
If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the
per-share
redemption amount received by shareholders may be less than $10.00 per share.
Our placing of funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third party claims against us. Since the consummation of the IPO, we have sought and will continue to seek to have vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses, including the Continuing Fathom Unitholders in the Business Combination, and other entities with which we do business execute agreements with us waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of our Public Shareholders. However, in certain instances we have not been able to obtain such a waiver in agreements that we have executed. Further, under certain circumstances, parties that have executed such a waiver may not be prevented from bringing claims against the Trust Account, including, but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility
 
93

Table of Contents
or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case, in order to gain advantage with respect to a claim against our assets, including the funds held in the Trust Account. In determining whether to enter into an agreement with a third party that refuses to execute a waiver of such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account, our management has and will consider whether competitive alternatives are reasonably available to us, and have historically only entered into agreements with third parties without such a waiver in situations where management believes that such third party’s engagement is in the best interests of Altimar II under the circumstances.
Upon redemption of our Class A ordinary shares, if we are unable to complete the initial business combination within the prescribed timeframe, or upon the exercise of a redemption right in connection with the initial business combination, we may be required to provide for payment of claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against us within the ten years following redemption. Although no such claims have been brought against us or threatened to date, the
per-share
redemption amount received by Public Shareholders could be less than the $10.00 per Public Share initially held in the Trust Account, due to claims of such creditors to the extent they are brought in the future. Pursuant to a letter agreement, the Sponsor agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or business combination agreement reduces the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, we have not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor have we independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and we believe that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of our company. Therefore, we cannot assure you that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of our officers or directors will indemnify us for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.
Our directors may decide not to enforce the indemnification obligations of the Sponsor, resulting in a reduction in the amount of funds in the Trust Account available for distribution to our Public Shareholders.
In the event that the proceeds in the Trust Account are reduced below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per share and (ii) the actual amount per share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account if less than $10.00 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case less taxes payable, and the Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, our independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While we currently expect that our independent directors would take legal action on our behalf against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to us, it is possible that our independent directors in exercising their business judgment and subject to their fiduciary duties may choose not to do so in any particular instance. If our independent directors choose not to enforce these indemnification obligations, the amount of funds in the Trust Account available for distribution to our Public Shareholders may be reduced below $10.00 per share.
We may not have sufficient funds to satisfy indemnification claims of our directors and executive officers.
We agreed to indemnify our officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by law. However, our officers and directors agreed to waive any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account and to not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever (except to the extent they are entitled to funds from the Trust Account due to their ownership of Public Shares).
 
94

Table of Contents
Accordingly, any indemnification provided will be able to be satisfied by us only if (i) we have sufficient funds outside of the Trust Account or (ii) we consummate an initial business combination (which shall be the Business Combination should it occur). Our obligation to indemnify our officers and directors may discourage shareholders from bringing a lawsuit against our officers or directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against our officers and directors, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our shareholders. Furthermore, a shareholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against our officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions.
If, after we distribute the proceeds in the Trust Account to our Public Shareholders, we file a bankruptcy or winding-up petition or an involuntary or winding-up bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, a bankruptcy court may seek to recover such proceeds, and the members of our board of directors may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to our creditors, thereby exposing the members of our board of directors and us to claims of punitive damages.
If, after we distribute the proceeds in the Trust Account to our Public Shareholders, we file a bankruptcy or winding-up petition or an involuntary bankruptcy or winding-up petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy or insolvency laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy court could seek to recover some or all amounts received by our shareholders. In addition, our board of directors may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to our creditors and/or having acted in bad faith, thereby exposing itself and us to claims of punitive damages, by paying Public Shareholders from the Trust Account prior to addressing the claims of creditors.
If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to our Public Shareholders, we file a bankruptcy or winding-up petition or an involuntary or winding-up bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority over the claims of our shareholders and the
per-share
amount that would otherwise be received by our shareholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.
If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to our Public Shareholders, we file a bankruptcy or winding-up petition or an involuntary bankruptcy or winding-up petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in our bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our shareholders. To the extent any bankruptcy or insolvency claims deplete the Trust Account, the
per-share
amount that would otherwise be received by our shareholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.
You may only be able to exercise your Public Warrants on a “cashless basis” under certain circumstances, and if you do so, you will receive fewer Class A common stock from such exercise than if you were to exercise such warrants for cash.
The warrant agreement provides that in the following circumstances holders of warrants who seek to exercise their warrants will not be permitted to do for cash and will, instead, be required to do so on a cashless basis in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act: (i) if the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants are not registered under the Securities Act in accordance with the terms of the warrant agreement; (ii) if we have so elected and the Class A common stock are at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of “covered securities” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act; and (iii) if we have so elected and we call the Public Warrants for redemption. If you exercise your Public Warrants on a cashless basis, you would pay the warrant exercise price by surrendering all of the warrants for that number of Class A common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” of our Class A common stock (as defined in the next sentence) over the exercise
 
95

Table of Contents
price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” is the average reported last sale price of the Class A common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of exercise is received by the warrant agent or on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants, as applicable. As a result, you would receive fewer shares of Class A common stock from such exercise than if you were to exercise such warrants for cash.
The grant of registration rights to certain holders, including PIPE Investors, and the future exercise of such rights may adversely affect the market price of our Class A common stock.
Upon the completion of the Business Combination, the Registration Rights Agreement will be entered into by and among Fathom Digital Manufacturing Corporation and certain other parties thereto, replacing Altimar II’s existing registration rights agreement. The Registration Rights Agreement in substantially the form it will be executed in connection with the Closing is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as
Annex F
. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Legacy Fathom Owners, Sponsor and other Altimar II Founders, and, in each case, their permitted transferees and assigns will have customary registration rights (including demand, shelf and piggy-back rights, subject to cooperation and
cut-back
provisions). Further, pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, we agreed that we will use commercially reasonable best efforts (i) to file within 30 days after the closing of the Business Combination a registration statement with the SEC for a secondary offering of the PIPE Securities, (ii) to cause such registration statement to be declared effective promptly thereafter and (iii) to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement until the earlier of (a) the date on which Sponsor and all of the independent directors cease to hold the securities covered thereby, and (b) the date all of the securities covered thereby can be sold publicly without restriction or limitation under Rule 144 under the Securities Act. In addition, the Subscription Agreements provide these holders will have certain “piggy-back” registration rights to include their securities in other registration statements filed by us. We will bear the cost of registering these securities. The registration and availability of such a significant number of securities for trading in the public market may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Class A common stock of Fathom.
We may have been a PFIC, which could result in adverse United States federal income tax consequences to U.S. investors.
Pursuant to a start-up exception, a corporation will not be a PFIC for the first taxable year the corporation has gross income (the “start-up year”), if (i) no predecessor of the corporation was a PFIC; (ii) the corporation satisfies the IRS that it will not be a PFIC for either of the first two taxable years following the start-up year; and (iii) the corporation is not in fact a PFIC for either of those two years. Altimar II believes, although subject to uncertainty, that Altimar II’s 2021 taxable year may be the start-up year and that Altimar II may not be treated as a PFIC for 2021. The application of the start-up exception will depend, in part, on whether the Domestication is consummated in 2021. In addition, the application of the start-up exception to the present transaction involves the application of complicated rules with respect to which there is no clear authority. Accordingly, there can be no assurance with respect to Altimar II’s status as a PFIC for 2021. If we have been a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a beneficial owner of Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants that is a “U.S. holder” as that term is defined in the section entitled “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations – U.S. Holders – PFIC Considerations,” such U.S. holder may be subject to certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences and may be subject to additional reporting requirements, including as a result of the Domestication. Our PFIC status for any taxable year will not be determinable until after the end of such taxable year. If we determine we are a PFIC for any taxable year, upon written request, Altimar II will endeavor to provide to a U.S. holder such information as the IRS may require, including a PFIC annual information statement, in order to enable the U.S. holder to make and maintain a “qualified electing fund” election, but there can be no assurance that we will timely provide such required information, and such election would be unavailable with respect to Altimar II warrants in all cases. The PFIC rules are complex and will depend on a holder’s particular circumstances. All U.S. holders are strongly urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the application and effect of the PFIC rules, including as a result of the Domestication, including the applicability and effect of U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income and other tax laws. For a more complete discussion of

The provisions of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that relate to the rights of holders of our Class A ordinary shares (and corresponding provisions of the agreement governing the release of funds from our Trust Account) may be amended with the approval of holders of at least
two-thirds
of our ordinary shares who attend and vote at a general meeting of Altimar II, which is a lower amendment threshold than that of some other blank check companies. It may be easier for us, therefore, to amend the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to facilitate the completion of the Business Combination that some of our shareholders may not support.
Some other blank check companies have a provision in their charter which prohibits the amendment of certain of its provisions, including those which relate to the rights of a company’s shareholders, without approval by a certain percentage of the company’s shareholders. In those companies, amendment of these provisions typically requires approval by between 90% and 100% of the company’s shareholders. The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association provide that any of its provisions related to the rights of holders of our Class A ordinary shares (including the requirement to deposit proceeds of the IPO and the Private Placement of Warrants into the Trust Account and not release such amounts except in specified circumstances, and to provide Redemption Rights to Public Shareholders as described herein) may be amended if approved by special resolution, meaning holders of at least
two-thirds
of our ordinary shares who attend and vote at a general meeting of Altimar II, and corresponding provisions of the trust agreement governing the release of funds from our Trust Account may be amended if approved by holders of 65% of our ordinary shares; provided that the provisions of our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association governing the appointment or removal of directors prior to our initial business combination may only be amended by a special resolution passed by not less than
two-thirds
of our ordinary shares who attend and vote at our general meeting which shall include the affirmative vote of a simple majority of our Class B ordinary shares. Altimar II’s Sponsor and its permitted transferees, if any, who collectively beneficially owned 20% of our issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares, will participate in any vote to amend the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and/or trust agreement and will have the discretion to vote in any manner they choose. As a result, we may be able to amend the provisions of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association which govern our
pre-Business
Combination actions more easily than some other special purpose acquisition companies, and this may increase our ability to complete the Business Combination with which you may not agree. Our shareholders may pursue remedies against us for any breach of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.
Sponsor, executive officers and directors agreed, pursuant to agreements with us, that they will not propose any amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide for the redemption of our Class A ordinary shares in connection with the Business Combination or to redeem 100% of our Class A ordinary shares if we do not complete the Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of our Class A ordinary shares, unless we provide our Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Class A ordinary shares upon approval of any such amendment at a
per-share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to us to pay our income taxes, if any, divided by the number of then outstanding Class A ordinary shares. Our shareholders are not parties to, or third-party beneficiaries of, these agreements and, as a result, will not have the ability to pursue remedies against Sponsor, executive officers or directors for any breach of these agreements. As a result, in the event of a breach, our shareholders would need to pursue a shareholder derivative action, subject to applicable law.

Table of Contents
We may amend the terms of the warrants in a manner that may be adverse to holders of Public Warrants with the approval by the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding Public Warrants. As a result, the exercise price of the warrants could be increased, the exercise period could be shortened and the number of Class A ordinary shares purchasable upon exercise of a warrant could be decreased, all without approval of each warrant affected.
Our warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval by the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding Public Warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of Public Warrants. Accordingly, we may amend the terms of the Public Warrants in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding Public Warrants approve of such amendment. Although our ability to amend the terms of the Public Warrants with the consent of at least 50% of the then outstanding Public Warrants is unlimited, examples of such amendments could be amendments to, among other things, increase the exercise price of the warrants, convert the warrants into cash, shorten the exercise period or decrease the number of Class A ordinary shares or Class A common stock, as applicable, purchasable upon exercise of a warrant.
We may redeem unexpired warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to holders of warrants, thereby making such warrants worthless.
We have the ability to redeem outstanding warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per warrant, provided that the last sale price of our Class A ordinary shares or Class A common stock, as applicable, equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) on each of 20 trading days within a 30
trading-day
period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which notice of such redemption is given. We will not redeem the warrants unless an effective registration statement under the Securities Act covering the Class A ordinary shares or Class A common stock, as applicable, issuable upon exercise of the warrants is effective and a current prospectus relating to those Class ordinary shares or Class A common stock, as applicable, is available throughout the
30-day
redemption period, except if the warrants may be exercised on a cashless basis and such cashless exercise is exempt from registration under the Securities Act. If and when the warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. Redemption of the outstanding warrants could force holders thereof to (i) exercise warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for such holder to do so, (ii) sell warrants at the then-current market price when such holder might otherwise wish to hold warrants or (iii) accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding warrants are called for redemption, is likely to be substantially less than the market value of such warrants. None of the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by us so long as they are held by their initial purchasers or their permitted transferees.
In addition, we may redeem warrants after they become exercisable for a number of Class A common stock determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of our Class A common stock. Any such redemption may have similar consequences to a cash redemption described above. In addition, such redemption may occur at a time when the warrants are
“out-of-the-money,”
in which case holders thereof would lose any potential embedded value from a subsequent increase in the value of the Class A common stock had such warrants remained outstanding.
Our warrants may have an adverse effect on the market price of our Class A common stock.
We issued warrants to purchase 8,625,000 of our Class A ordinary shares as part of the units offered in the IPO and, simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, we issued in a private placement an aggregate of 9,900,000 Private Placement Warrants, each exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $11.50 per share. Upon

the Domestication, the warrants will entitle the holders to purchase shares of Class A common stock of Fathom. Such warrants, when exercised, will increase the number of issued and outstanding Class A common stock and reduce the value of the Class A common stock.
Compliance obligations under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may make it more difficult for us to effectuate the Business Combination, require substantial financial and management resources, and increase the time and costs of completing an acquisition.
Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires that we evaluate and report on our system of internal controls beginning with our Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ending December 31, 2022. Only in the event we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer or an accelerated filer and no longer qualify as an emerging growth company will we be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on our internal control over financial reporting. Further, for as long as we remain an emerging growth company, we will not be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on our internal control over financial reporting. Following the Business Combination, we will be required to assure that we are in compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act regarding adequacy of our internal controls. The development of the internal control system to achieve compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may increase the time and costs necessary to complete the Business Combination as well as impose obligations on Fathom following the Business Combination.
The nominal purchase price paid by the Sponsor for its founder shares may significantly dilute the implied value of the Public Shares in the event we complete an initial business combination. In addition, the value of the Sponsor’s founder shares will be significantly greater than the amount the Sponsor paid to purchase such shares in the event we complete an initial business combination, even if the business combination causes the trading price of Fathom’s common stock to materially decline.
Sponsor invested an aggregate of $9,925,000 in us, comprised of the $25,000 purchase price for the founder shares and the $9,900,000 purchase price for the Private Placement Warrants. The amount held in our Trust Account was approximately $345,000,000 as of June 30, 2021, implying a value of $10 per Public Share.
The following table shows the Public Shareholders’ and the Altimar II Founders’ (including the Sponsor’s) investment per share and how these compare to the implied value of one share of Fathom common stock upon the completion of our initial business combination. The following table assumes that (i) our valuation is $345,000,000 (which is the approximate amount in the Trust Account as of June 30, 2021), (ii) no additional interest is earned on the funds held in the Trust Account, (iii) no Public Shares are redeemed in connection with our initial business combination and (iv) all founder shares are held by the Sponsor and independent directors upon completion of our initial business combination and not forfeited, and does not take into account other potential impacts on our valuation at the time of the initial business combination such as (a) the value of our Public Warrants and Private Placement Warrants, (b) the trading price of our common stock, (c) the initial business combination transaction costs (including payment of $12,075,000 of deferred underwriting commissions), (d) any equity issued or cash paid to the Legacy Fathom Owners, (e) any equity issued to other third party investors, or (f) Fathom’s business itself.

While the Public Shareholders’ investment is in both the Public Shares and the Public Warrants, for purposes of this table, the full investment amount is ascribed to the Public Shares only.
(2)
The Sponsor’s total investment in the equity of the company, inclusive of the founder shares and the Sponsor’s $9,900,000 investment in the Private Placement Warrants, is $9,925,000. For purposes of this table, the full investment amount is ascribed to the founder shares only.
Based upon these assumptions, each share of Fathom common stock would have an implied value of $8.00 per share upon completion of our initial business combination, representing a 20% decrease from the initial implied value of $10.00 per Public Share. While the implied value of $8.00 per share upon completion of our initial business combination would represent a dilution to our Public Shareholders, this would represent a significant increase in value for the Sponsor relative to the price it paid for each founder share. At $8.00 per share, the 8,625,000 shares of Fathom common stock that Sponsor and our independent directors holding founder shares would own upon completion of our initial business combination would have an aggregate implied value of $69,000,000. As a result, even if the trading price of the Fathom Class A common stock significantly declines, the value of the founder shares held by Sponsor and independent directors will be significantly greater than the amount Sponsor paid to purchase such shares. In addition, the Sponsor could potentially recoup its entire investment, inclusive of its investment in the Private Placement Warrants, even if the trading price of the Fathom common stock after the initial business combination is lower than $8.00 per share. As a result, the Sponsor and independent directors holding founder shares are likely to earn a substantial profit on their investment in us upon disposition of shares of Fathom common stock even if the trading price of the Fathom common stock declines after we complete our initial business combination. Sponsor and independent directors holding founder shares may therefore be economically incentivized to complete an initial business combination with a riskier, weaker-performing or less-established target business, or on terms less favorable to the Public Shareholders, rather than liquidating Altimar II. This dilution would increase to the extent that Public Shareholders seek redemptions from the Trust Account for their Public Shares.
Public Shareholders who redeem their shares of Altimar II Class A Ordinary Shares may continue to hold any Public Warrants they own, which results in additional dilution to non-redeeming holders upon exercise of the Public Warrants.
Public Shareholders who redeem their shares may continue to hold any Public Warrants they owned prior to redemption, which results in additional dilution to non-redeeming holders upon exercise of such Public Warrants. Assuming (i) all redeeming Public Shareholders acquired units in the IPO and continue to hold the Public Warrants that were included in the units, and (ii) maximum redemption of the Class A ordinary shares held by the redeeming Public Shareholders, 2,800,000 Public Warrants would be retained by redeeming Public Shareholders with a value of $2,716,000, based on the market price of $0.97 of the Public Warrants as of September 7, 2021. As a result, the redeeming Public Shareholders would recoup their entire investment and continue to hold Public Warrants with an aggregate market value of $2,716,000, while non-redeeming Public Shareholders would suffer additional dilution in their percentage ownership and voting interest in Fathom upon exercise of the Public Warrants held by redeeming Public Shareholders.

This section describes the material provisions of the Business Combination Agreement and certain additional agreements entered into or to be entered into at Closing pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Related Agreements”) but does not purport to describe all of the terms thereof or include all of the additional agreements entered into or to be entered into pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement.

The Business Combination Agreement contains representations and warranties by Altimar II and Fathom OpCo. The representations, warranties and covenants made in the Business Combination Agreement by Altimar II and Fathom OpCo were qualified and subject to important limitations agreed to by Altimar II and Fathom OpCo in connection with negotiating the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. In particular, in your review of the representations and warranties contained in the Business Combination Agreement and described in this summary, it is important to bear in mind that the representations and warranties were negotiated with the principal purpose of establishing circumstances in which a party to the Business Combination Agreement may have the right not to consummate the Business Combination if the representations and warranties of the other party were to be untrue due to a change in circumstance or otherwise, and allocating risk between the parties to the Business Combination Agreement, rather than establishing or attempting to set forth matters as facts. The representations and warranties also may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from that generally applicable to shareholders and reports and documents filed with the SEC and some representations, warranties and covenants were qualified by the matters contained in the confidential disclosure letters that Altimar II and Fathom OpCo each delivered in connection with the Business Combination Agreement and certain documents filed with the SEC.

For the foregoing reasons, the representations and warranties or any descriptions of those provisions should not be read alone or relied upon as presenting the actual state of facts or condition of Altimar II or Fathom OpCo, or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates. Instead, such provisions or descriptions should be read only in conjunction with the other information provided elsewhere in this document or incorporated by reference into this proxy statement/prospectus.

Background of the Business Combination
The following chronology summarizes the key meetings and events that led to the signing of the Business Combination Agreement. This chronology does not purport to catalogue every conversation or correspondence among representatives of Altimar II, Fathom OpCo, their respective representatives or any other party.
Altimar II is a blank check company incorporated on December 7, 2020 as a Cayman Islands exempted company for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. Our sponsor, Altimar Sponsor II, LLC (the “Sponsor”), is affiliated with HPS Investment Partners, LLC (“HPS”), a global investment firm with approximately $72 billion

of assets under management as of June 1, 2021. Altimar II’s strategy is to pursue companies that it believes are poised to experience strong growth and possess business models that are or will be strong cash flow generators and to leverage HPS’ deal sourcing platform and the deep relationships of HPS’ experienced principals to identify such companies in four key industries: (1) technology, media and telecommunications, (2) healthcare, (3) financial services / financial technology and (4) consumer. Altimar II’s focus on these industries was driven in part by the expertise, experience and extensive contacts of its Sponsor with participants in each of those industries, including financial services, however Altimar II was not constrained to pursue opportunities in only these industries.
On February 4, 2021, Altimar II announced the pricing of its IPO.
On February 5, 2021, Altimar II’s capital stock began trading on NYSE. Prior to the consummation of the IPO, neither Altimar II, nor anyone on its behalf, had any substantive discussions, formal or otherwise, with respect to a potential business combination transaction with Altimar II.
After its IPO, Altimar II commenced an active search for prospective businesses and assets to acquire. Representatives of Altimar II and our Sponsor contacted and were contacted by a number of individuals and entities with respect to business combination opportunities. As part of this process, representatives of Altimar II considered and evaluated over 50 potential acquisition targets in a wide variety of industry sectors and entered into
non-disclosure
agreements with 19 such potential acquisition targets (including, on May 16, 2021, a
non-disclosure
agreement with Fathom OpCo).
As part of its regular evaluation of potential acquisition targets, Altimar II’s Board and management would meet on a regular basis to discuss the status of management’s discussions with potential acquisition targets. These updates would generally address the potential targets under consideration and the status of the discussions, if any, with the respective acquisition targets, and the updates continued throughout the period of time when Altimar II was evaluating various acquisition targets.
Of the 19 potential acquisition targets with respect to which Altimar II entered into
non-disclosure
agreements, representatives of Altimar II and the Sponsor participated in management presentations and engaged in due diligence and discussions directly with the applicable senior executives, shareholders and bankers of Fathom OpCo and four other potential acquisition targets. Altimar II submitted bids for each of the five potential acquisition targets and entered into letters of intent with two of the five potential acquisition targets (including Fathom OpCo). Altimar II did not proceed with finalizing a potential transaction with any potential acquisition targets other than Fathom OpCo due to variety of factors, including the absence of a mutually acceptable agreement on valuation and other key deal terms and decisions to pursue potential alternative transactions.
The proposed Business Combination with Fathom OpCo follows a search for a potential transaction utilizing the global network and investing and operating experience of Altimar II’s executive officers, principals of the Sponsor and its affiliates, and the members of Altimar II’s Board. The terms of the Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination are the result of an arm’s length negotiation between representatives of Altimar II and Fathom OpCo following a competitive process to select a SPAC partner conducted by Fathom OpCo and CORE Industrial Partners (“CORE”, a private equity firm and majority owner of Fathom OpCo).
Altimar II decided to pursue an acquisition of Fathom OpCo because it determined that Fathom OpCo represented a compelling opportunity given its existing operations and financial performance, strong management team, strong growth and margin profile, and fast-growing and large market opportunity.
On May 18, 2021, a representative of Altimar II had a
no-names
discussion with Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated (“Stifel”) regarding a potential opportunity for Altimar II.
Also on May 18, 2021, Stifel provided preliminary information about Fathom and a draft
non-disclosure
agreement (the “NDA”) to be executed by Altimar II in order that it may be granted access to additional information and to facilitate its due diligence review and participation in a competitive process.

Before reaching its decision, the Board reviewed the results of the due diligence review conducted by its management, employees of Sponsor and its affiliates and their respective advisors, which included:
 
   
numerous meetings and calls with the management team and advisors of Fathom OpCo regarding operations and forecasts;
 
   
review of material contracts, material liabilities and other material matters;
 
   
financial, legal, insurance, and accounting due diligence;
 
   
consultation with Altimar II management and legal counsel and financial advisor;
 
   
review of Fathom OpCo’s historical financial performance (including audited and unaudited financials) and management projections for the business; and
 
   
financial and valuation analyses of the business of Fathom.
In the prospectus for the IPO, Altimar II identified certain criteria that Altimar II believed would be important in evaluating prospective target businesses, namely businesses with world class management teams and a compelling organic growth plan, coupled with a compelling business model that is materially cash generative at maturity. Altimar II indicated that its goal was to deliver public shareholders an opportunity to own a long term, durable compounding equity investment that can produce strong returns.
Based on its review of the industry data and the operational, financial and other relevant information related to the Fathom business, provided by Fathom and presented to the Board, the factors considered by Altimar II Board included, but were not limited to, the following:
 
   
Fathom OpCo is an Attractive Business Opportunity
. The Board considered the fact that the Fathom OpCo business (i) is of a sufficient size relevant to the public marketplace, (ii) has a strong existing management team, (iii) has a significant total addressable market and growth expansion opportunities, and (iv) would benefit from the consummation of the Business Combination by becoming a public company, which the Board believed would improve the ability of business to grow.
 
   
Large and Expanding Growth Industry
. Fathom is a leading
on-demand
manufacturing company in a $25+ billion
low-to-mid
volume manufacturing market, with robust long-standing operations and strong cash flow generation. Fathom expects wider adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies, which include additive manufacturing, CNC machining, injection molding, precision metal fabrication and other ancillary technologies, as the industry shifts from a focus on prototyping to adoption by mass manufacturers. In addition, Fathom OpCo expects the Industry 4.0 to benefit from the reshaping of new product development cycles as corporations continue to
re-shore
manufacturing activities, digitalize product development, mass customize products and search for higher value add, all at lower cost with shorter lead times.
 
   
Growth Prospects
. Fathom OpCo has an extensive product offering and has historically demonstrated customer demand across a diverse array of industries with little account concentration. In addition, customer demand for Fathom OpCo’s products and services is expected to position Fathom to realize strong growth prospects within the
low-to-mid
volume manufacturing market and adjacent markets.
 
   
Platform Supports Further Growth Initiatives
. Fathom OpCo has a highly attractive solutions platform with the potential to yield strong organic growth driven by the acceleration in
on-demand
 
108

Table of Contents
 
manufacturing capabilities, including additive manufacturing and injection molding technologies. Fathom OpCo is positioned to capture growth across several markets through its robust portfolio growth with healthy upside to expand across a diversified revenue profile and technology offerings.
 
   
Industry Leading Technology Platform and Proprietary Information
. Fathom OpCo’s Industry 4.0 solutions are highly differentiated and supported by a broad technology portfolio of proprietary and differentiated technologies. Fathom is uniquely positioned as the only “full service” outsourced solution built to serve the manufacturing needs of enterprise-grade customers.
 
   
Deep Relationships with a Broad and Diverse Customer Base
. Fathom OpCo has a broad, diversified and growing customer base with demonstrated customer demand across a variety of industries.
 
   
Attractive Valuation
. The Board’s view, after consulting with its financial advisor and consultants, and supported by financial analysis performed by the Sponsor and its affiliates, that the Business Combination offers an attractive valuation for Altimar II’s shareholders. In reaching this conclusion, the Board considered various financial ratios of Fathom OpCo and its peer groups based on historical performance and projected financial performance.
 
   
Experienced and Proven Management Team
. Following completion of the Business Combination, the combined business will be led by a senior management team composed of the same senior management teams that have operated Fathom OpCo prior to the Business Combination and developed Fathom OpCo into the highly reputable and successful company that it is today. Fathom OpCo’s management team has a proven track record of operational excellence, financial performance and growth. In addition, Fathom OpCo’s Board will be comprised of experienced directors, including, among others, Robert Nardelli, former Chairman and CEO of Chrysler Corporation and The Home Depot.
 
   
Continued Ownership by the Key Holders
. The Board considered that Legacy Fathom Owners would own approximately 63.9% of the economic interests in Fathom following the Business Combination (assuming no redemptions by Altimar II Public Shareholders and the other assumptions set forth in “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information”), reflecting their confidence in the Fathom business and the continued growth prospects of the Fathom business going forward. Additionally, Fathom’s current equityholders will receive part of their share of the consideration from the Business Combination in the form of unvested equity which will be subject to certain vesting terms and conditions.
 
   
Due Diligence
. Due diligence examinations of Fathom OpCo conducted by Altimar II and its advisors in several areas, including financial, legal, insurance, and accounting, and related discussions between Altimar II and such advisors with Fathom OpCo’s management in connection therewith.
 
   
Terms and Conditions of the Business Combination Agreement
. The terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Business Combination, were, in the opinion of the Board, consistent with similar transactions and the product of
arm’s-length
negotiations between the parties.
 
   
Stockholder Liquidity
. The obligation in the Business Combination Agreement to have Class A common stock issued as consideration listed on the NYSE, a major U.S. stock exchange, which the Board believes has the potential to offer stockholders enhanced liquidity.
 
   
Involvement of the PIPE Investors
. The Board considered that the agreement of the PIPE Investors to invest $80 million in the combined business at Closing at $10.00 per share was a validation of the valuation being ascribed to, and future prospects of, the combined business.
 
   
Changes to Altimar II Capital Structure
. Altimar II Founders agreed to enter into a Forfeiture and Support Agreement in connection with the Business Combination which provides, among other things, that Sponsor will waive any additional anti-dilution rights on behalf of Sponsor and the other Altimar II Founders. Additionally, the Altimar II Founders agreed to forfeit up to 15% of their Class A common
 
109

Table of Contents
 
stock pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement and the Forfeiture and Support Agreement, which they would otherwise receive at the closing of the Business Combination upon the automatic conversion of their Class B ordinary shares.
 
   
Altimar II Shares Subject to Vesting
. Pursuant to the Forfeiture and Support Agreement, 15% of Sponsor’s Class B ordinary shares (or, following the Domestication, shares of Class C common stock or Class A common stock, as applicable) will be unvested and restricted. Such shares will vest automatically upon (a) the VWAP of the Class A common stock equaling or exceeding $15.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a period of 30 consecutive trading days and (b) a change of control of Altimar II. If the unvested shares have not vested on or before the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date, such unvested shares will be automatically forfeited.
In the course of its deliberations, in addition to the various other risks associated with the combined business, as described in the section entitled “
Risk Factors
” appearing elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus, the Board also considered a variety of uncertainties, risks and other potentially negative reasons relevant to the business combination, including the following:
 
   
Macroeconomic Risks
. Macroeconomic uncertainty, including the potential impact of the
COVID-19
pandemic, and the effects they could have on the combined company’s revenues and financial performance.
 
   
Business Plan and Projections May Not Be Achieved
. The risk that the combined business may not be able to execute on its business plan, and realize the financial performance as set forth in the financial projections, in each case, presented to management of Altimar II and that the historical returns attributable to Fathom OpCo may not be indicative of the future results of the combined business, which could materially affect its valuation.
 
   
Potential Misalignment of Interests between Fathom and the Public Stockholders
. The interests of the Fathom equityholders may not be aligned with the interests of the Class A common stock holders relating to, among other things, the nomination and appointment of directors to Fathom’s Board and the conduct of Fathom’s business.
 
   
Growth Initiatives May Not be Achieved
. The risk that Fathom’s growth initiatives may not be fully achieved or may not be achieved within the expected timeframe.
 
   
No Third-Party Valuation
. The fact that Altimar II did not obtain a third-party valuation or fairness opinion in connection with the Business Combination.
 
   
Liquidation
. The risks and costs to Altimar II if the Business Combination is not completed, including the risk of diverting management focus and resources from other businesses combination opportunities, which could result in Altimar II being unable to effect a business combination within the completion window which would require Altimar II to liquidate.
 
   
Exclusivity
. The fact that the Business Combination Agreement includes
non-solicitation
provision that prohibits Altimar II from soliciting other initial business combination proposals, which restricts Altimar II’s ability to consider other potential initial business combinations prior to the Closing or termination of the Business Combination Agreement. Altimar II’s Board, in certain circumstances, may change its recommendation in favor of the Business Combination, subject to the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement.
 
   
Restrictions in the Conduct of Business
. The requirement that Fathom OpCo conducts its business in the ordinary course and the other restrictions on the conduct of Fathom OpCo’s business prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, which may delay or prevent Fathom OpCo from undertaking business opportunities that may arise pending the completion of the Business Combination.
 
110

Table of Contents
 
Distraction to Operations
. The risk that the potential diversion of the management of the business and employee attention as a result of the Business Combination and the fact that Fathom OpCo will become a public company may adversely affect operations of the business.
 
   
Shareholder Vote
. The risk that Altimar II’s shareholders may object to and challenge the Business Combination and take action that may prevent or delay the consummation of the Business Combination, including to vote down the proposals at the special meeting, not vote in favor of any extension of Altimar II’s time frame to complete the Business Combination or redeem their shares.
 
   
Closing Conditions
. The fact that completion of the Business Combination is conditioned on the satisfaction of certain closing conditions that are not within Altimar II’s control.
 
   
Altimar II Shareholders Holding a Minority Position in the Post-Combination Company
. Following completion of the Business Combination, Altimar II’s Public Shareholders will own approximately 25% of the common stock of Fathom (assuming that no shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares are elected to be redeemed by Altimar II Public Shareholders).
 
   
Governance and Structure of the Fathom Board
. The fact that the Fathom Board will be a classified board, and will be initially comprised of ten directors, as follows: nine directors designated by CORE, and one independent director to be jointly designated by CORE and the Sponsor.
 
   
Control of Fathom’s Board
. The fact that following the Business Combination, CORE will have the right to nominate to the Board a number of designees equal to at least 50% of the total number of directors, so long as CORE beneficially owns shares of Fathom’s common stock representing at least a majority of the amount owned by CORE at the time of the consummation of the Business Combination. In addition, CORE will have other rights, preferences or privileges not available to other shareholders, including the right to appoint a
non-voting
observer to Altimar II’s Board for as long as CORE owns at least 5% of the shares owned by CORE at the Closing.
 
   
Litigation
. The possibility of litigation challenging the Business Combination or that an adverse judgment granting permanent injunctive relief could indefinitely enjoin consummation of the Business Combination.
 
   
Fees and Expenses
. The fees and expenses associated with completing the Business Combination.
 
   
Redemptions
. The risk that current Altimar II Public Shareholders would exercise their redemption rights, thereby depleting the amount of cash available in the Trust Account.
 
   
NYSE Listing
. The potential inability to maintain listing of Fathom’s securities on NYSE following the Business Combination.
In addition to considering the factors described above, the Altimar II Board also considered that:
 
   
Interests of Certain Persons
. Some officers and directors of Altimar II may have interests in the Business Combination as individuals that are in addition to, and that may be different from, the interests of Altimar II’s shareholders. See the section entitled “
Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions
” for more information. Altimar II’s directors reviewed and considered these interests during the negotiation of the Business Combination and in evaluating and unanimously approving, as members of the Altimar II Board, the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, including the Business Combination.
 
   
Other Risks Factors.
Various other risk factors associated with the business of Fathom and the combined business described in the section entitled “
Risk Factors
” beginning on page 49 of this proxy statement/prospectus.
After considering the foregoing, the Board concluded that the potential benefits to Altimar II and its shareholders relating to the Business Combination outweighed the potentially negative factors relating to the Business Combination. Accordingly, the Altimar II board of directors determined that the Business Combination Agreement and the
 
111

Table of Contents
transactions contemplated thereby, including the Business Combination, were advisable, fair to, and in the best interests of Altimar II and its shareholders. The Board therefore recommends that the shareholders of Altimar II vote to approve the proposals to be submitted to the shareholders of Altimar II with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination, among other things.
Certain Projected Financial Information
Fathom OpCo does not, as a matter of general practice, publicly disclose long-term forecasts or internal projections of its future performance, revenues, earnings, financial condition or other results due to, among other reasons, the uncertainty of the underlying assumptions and estimates. However, the prospective financial information of Fathom OpCo for fiscal years 2021 through 2025, each ended December 31, prepared by Fathom OpCo’s management team (the “Initial Projections”), was provided to the Altimar II Board in connection with the Altimar II Board’s consideration of the proposed Business Combination. Fathom OpCo’s management team prepared the Initial Projections as of July 15, 2021.
Fathom OpCo’s management team regularly assesses Fathom OpCo’s business outlook and financial forecasts based on the most accurate and current information available. Since the Initial Projections were finalized on July 15, 2021, Fathom OpCo’s management team identified factors likely to impact Fathom OpCo’s near-term outlook. These factors primarily relate to supply chain disruptions which have delayed certain orders expected in 2021. These supply chain disruptions are common across the additive and traditional manufacturing industries and are primarily the result of the ongoing
COVID-19
pandemic and related
COVID-19
restrictions and protocols which have adversely affected the global and domestic supply chains. The supply chain disruptions primarily impacted Fathom OpCo’s near-term outlook, and there has been no material change to Fathom OpCo’s long-term outlook reflected in the Initial Projections.
Fathom OpCo’s management team has prepared updated projections reflecting the expected impact of the supply chain disruptions on Fathom OpCo’s near-term outlook (such updated projections, the “Current Projections” and, together with the Initial Projections, the “Projections”). The Current Projections are included in this proxy statement/prospectus and the Altimar II Board has reviewed and discussed the Current Projections. The Current Projections do not take into account any circumstances or events occurring after the date on which the Current Projections were prepared, which was September 23, 2021.
Assumptions
In connection with the preparation of the Current Projections and the Initial Projections, Fathom OpCo’s management team considered various material assumptions, including, but not limited to, the following:
 
   
Further market adoption and growth of additive manufacturing and Fathom’s ability to capture the revenue opportunity associated with such growth.
 
   
Continued market penetration into Fathom’s existing core manufacturing technologies: additive manufacturing, CNC machining, precision sheet metal fabrication and injection molding.
 
   
Cohort-based customer sales forecast model with projected revenue growth driven by share of wallet growth with existing customers, acquisition of new customers and cross-selling of recently acquired, complementary manufacturing technologies.
 
   
Key customer projections assumptions include:
 
   
Annual customer retention remains in line with historical rate of 91%;
 
   
Sales growth with existing strategic customers is between 15% and 25% annually beginning in 2022;
 
   
New customer sales growth is between 30% and 45% annually beginning in 2022; and
 
112

Table of Contents
   
The addition of approximately 150 new strategic customers beginning in 2022 through 2025 at an average initial annual spend of $250,000 per customer, growing to an average annual spend of $400,000 per customer over time.
 
   
Expected cost of goods sold ranging from $85 million in 2021 to $193 million in 2025.
 
   
Increasing gross profit margin from 48% in 2021 to 53% in 2025 driven by positive manufacturing technology sales mix, continued price optimization initiatives, technology advancements and factory efficiencies.
 
   
Expected operating expenses increasing from $38 million in 2021 to $101 million in 2025, primarily attributable to increases in headcount, including salesforce expansion and marketing expenses.
 
   
Projected annual capital expenditures increasing from $8 million in 2021 to $36 million in 2025, primarily towards the purchase/procurement of manufacturing equipment and technology infrastructure.
While presented with numerical specificity, the Projections are forward-looking and reflect numerous estimates and assumptions with respect to future industry performance under various industry scenarios as well as assumptions for competition, general business, economic, market and financial conditions and other future events, as well as matters specific to the business of Fathom OpCo, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond Fathom OpCo’s control including, among other things, the matters described in the sections herein entitled “
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
” and “
Risk Factors
.”

OpCo’s management team based on its reasonable best estimates and assumptions with respect to the expected future financial performance of Fathom OpCo as of the respective dates on which the Current Projections and Initial Projections were prepared and speak only as of such dates.
The Projections are included in this proxy statement/prospectus solely to provide Altimar II’s shareholders access to information made available in connection with the Altimar II Board’s consideration of the proposed Business Combination. The Projections are being provided for information purposes only and are not and should not be viewed as public guidance regarding the future performance of Fathom OpCo or Fathom.

The Projections are included in this proxy statement/prospectus solely for informational purposes and not to induce any Altimar II shareholders to vote in favor of any of the proposals at the Special Meeting.
Altimar II and Fathom OpCo encourage you to review the financial statements of Fathom OpCo included in this proxy statement/ prospectus, as well as the financial information in the sections entitled
“Fathom OpCo’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations –
Non-GAAP
Financial Information
” and “
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information
” in this proxy statement/prospectus and to not rely on any single financial measure.
None of Altimar II, Fathom OpCo or any of their respective affiliates intends to, and, except to the extent required by applicable law, each of them expressly disclaims any obligation to, update, revise or correct the Projections to reflect circumstances existing or arising after the date such Projections were generated or to reflect the occurrence of future events, even in the event that any or all of the assumptions underlying the Projections are shown to be in error or any of the Projections otherwise would not be realized.
The Projections include certain
non-GAAP
financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP and that may be different from
non-GAAP
financial measures used by other companies. Each of Fathom OpCo and Altimar II believes that the use of these
non-GAAP
financial measures provides an additional tool for investors and potential investors to use in evaluating Fathom OpCo’s ongoing operating results and trends. These
non-GAAP
measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as an alternative to, financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. To the extent that forward-looking
non-GAAP
financial measures are provided, they are presented on a
non-GAAP
basis without reconciliations of such forward-looking
non-GAAP
measures to the most comparable GAAP measures due to the inherent difficulty in forecasting and quantifying certain amounts that are necessary for such reconciliation.
Transaction Structure

  (e)
Immediately following the Blocker Altimar Mergers, Rapid Merger Sub will merge with and into Fathom OpCo (the “Fathom Merger”), with Fathom OpCo as the surviving entity of the Fathom Merger (Fathom OpCo, in its capacity as the surviving entity of the Fathom Merger, is sometimes referred to as the “Fathom Surviving Entity”). Following the Fathom Merger, the Fathom Surviving Entity will be owned by Altimar II and all other holders of Fathom OpCo units outstanding as of immediately prior to the Fathom Merger (such other holders, excluding Altimar II are referred to as the “Continuing Fathom Unitholders”).
Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the combined company will be organized in an
“Up-C”

Altimar II and the Continuing Fathom Unitholders will be issued Class A units of Fathom OpCo (“New Fathom Units”). Altimar II will be the managing member of Fathom OpCo. Altimar II will issue to Continuing Fathom Unitholders for cash at par value a number of shares of Class B common stock equal to the number of New Fathom Units held by the Continuing Fathom Unitholders. Altimar II’s other shareholders will hold Class A common stock of the combined company. Shares of Class A common stock will be entitled to economic rights and one vote per share and shares of Class B common stock will be entitled to one vote per share but no economic rights. The combined company’s business will continue to operate through Fathom OpCo.

Closing Funding
At the Closing, Fathom OpCo will use all amounts then available in the Trust Account (net of amounts required to redeem any Altimar Public Shareholders exercising their respective Redemption Rights) plus the proceeds of the PIPE Investment that will occur in connection with the Business Combination to make the cash payments described below under “
Consideration to be Received in the Business Combination.”
Fathom OpCo will use any remaining amounts to pay the transaction expenses of Altimar II, Fathom OpCo and otherwise for general corporate purposes.
Consideration to be Received in the Business Combination
The total consideration to be paid to the Fathom Blocker Owners and the Continuing Fathom Unitholders (each as defined herein), including CORE Industrial Partners Fund I, LP, at the Closing shall equal the aggregate of:
 
  (a)
(i) All the cash proceeds from the Trust Account established for the purpose of holding the net proceeds of Altimar II’s initial public offering, net of any amounts paid to Altimar II’s shareholders that exercise their redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination, together with the proceeds from the PIPE Investment (as defined herein) (the “Available Cash Amount”), (ii)
minus
$25,000,000 to be contributed by Altimar II to the balance sheet of Fathom OpCo (the “Balance Sheet Contribution”), (iii)
minus
up to $42,000,000 to be used to pay down certain indebtedness of Fathom OpCo, (iv)
 minus
certain transaction expenses of Fathom OpCo and Altimar II, which include fees and expenses of various advisors, transfer taxes, employee transaction bonuses, and filing and listing fees (the “Closing Cash Consideration”); and
 
  (b)
A number of shares of Class A common stock and newly issued Class A units of Fathom OpCo (the “New Fathom Units”) (together with one share of Class B common stock to be issued at par value for cash in respect of each New Fathom Units), to be allocated as set forth on the Allocation Schedule, in an aggregate number (rounded up to the nearest whole share) equal to the quotient of (i) the result of (A) $1,200,000,000
minus
(B) the Closing Cash Consideration
divided by
(ii) $10.00 (the “Closing Seller Equity Consideration”).
The $25,000,000 to be contributed to the balance sheet of Altimar II as described in clause (a)(ii) above may be reduced with the written consent of Altimar II and Fathom. In addition, Fathom OpCo may, at its discretion, reduce the $42,000,000 of cash to be used to pay down certain indebtedness of Fathom OpCo, as described in clause (a)(iii) above, by the amount, if any, necessary to cause the Closing Cash Consideration to equal $345,000,000; provided, however, such pay-down amount may not be less than $22,000,000 without the consent of Altimar II. In considering whether to agree to a reduction in (i) the Balance Sheet Contribution below $25,000,000 and (ii) the Debt Paydown Amount below $22,000,000, Fathom OpCo and Altimar II will consider a variety of factors, including whether any such reduction will facilitate the satisfaction of the Minimum Cash Condition and the closing of the Business Combination and the impact of such reductions on the Company’s liquidity, leverage, borrowing capacity under the New Credit Agreement, and ability to satisfy its expected working capital and capital expenditure needs. Fathom OpCo and Altimar II do not intend to agree to any reductions that would materially and adversely impact the ability of the Fathom to satisfy such needs for the foreseeable future following the Closing. Altimar II and Fathom OpCo presently estimate that the transaction expenses described in clause (a)(iv) above will amount to approximately $59,500,000 in the aggregate.
Earnout
In addition to the Closing Seller Equity Consideration,
an aggregate of 9,000,000 additional shares or units of earnout equity consideration consisting of Fathom Class A common stock and New Fathom Units (collectively, the “Earnout Shares”) will be issued to the Continuing Fathom Unitholders (who will receive New Fathom Units together with shares of Altimar Class B Common Stock) and the Fathom Blocker Members (who will receive
 
118

Table of Contents
Fathom Class A common stock) pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. The Earnout Shares will vest in three equal tranches of an aggregate amount of 3,000,000 shares of Fathom Class A common stock or New Fathom Units, as applicable, and be allocated in accordance with the Allocation Schedule, with each tranche vesting at each of the following share price thresholds: $12.50, $15.00 and $20.00, in each case subject to the vesting and forfeiture provisions set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement and the Fathom Operating Agreement. The earnout period will be five years from the date of the closing of the Business Combination. The achievement of the price threshold will be determined based on the volume-weighted average share price for 20 trading days within any
30-trading
day period or a change of control transaction of Fathom that implies the same per share valuation as the applicable price threshold.
Allocation Schedule
The methodology to be followed in the Allocation Schedule at the Closing will provide for the payment of approximately $             of the Closing Cash Consideration to direct and indirect holders of outstanding preferred units of Fathom OpCo (including accrued but unpaid preferred distributions thereon), and will allocate the balance of the Closing Cash Consideration and the total Closing Seller Equity Consideration to direct and indirect holders of outstanding common units of Fathom OpCo, on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of outstanding common units held. The Earnout Shares will be allocated in accordance with the Allocation Schedule to the direct and indirect holders of outstanding common units of Fathom OpCo on a pro rata basis in accordance with the number of outstanding common units held. The portion of the Closing Cash Consideration to be paid to direct and indirect holders of outstanding preferred units of Fathom OpCo as described above assumes, for illustration, the inclusion of accrued preferred distributions through                  , 2021. The total amount to be paid to the holders of preferred units will vary to reflect the accrued preferred distributions as of the Closing Date.
Representations and Warranties

The parties to the Business Combination Agreement have made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Business Combination Agreement, including, among others, covenants with respect to the conduct of Altimar II, Fathom OpCo and the Fathom Blockers and their respective applicable businesses prior to the Closing.

The consummation of the Business Combination will specifically require the approval from certain governmental authorities, including the United States Federal Trade Commission and/or Department of Justice under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. The approvals contemplated by the preceding sentence are conditions to the Closing of the Business Combination.

Indemnification

Related Agreements
Subscription Agreements
In connection with entering into the Business Combination Agreement, Altimar II and Fathom OpCo entered into the Subscription Agreements with the PIPE Investors, pursuant to which, among other things, the PIPE Investors party thereto agreed to consummate the PIPE Investment. There are important differences between the rights of holders of shares of Class A common stock and holders of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares. See “
The Domestication Proposal—Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholders
” for a discussion of the different rights associated with holding these securities. In addition, the Altimar II Class A ordinary shares were originally sold in the Altimar II IPO as a component of the Altimar II units for $10.00 per unit. The Altimar II units consist of one Class A ordinary share and one-fourth of one redeemable Altimar II warrant.
The Subscription Agreements contain customary representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of Altimar II, Fathom OpCo and the PIPE Investors, and are subject to customary closing conditions (including, without limitation, that there is no amendment or modification to the Business Combination Agreement that is material and adverse to the PIPE Investor) and termination rights (including a termination right if the transaction contemplated by the Subscription Agreement has not been consummated by December 31, 2021, other than as a result of breach by the terminating party).
Forfeiture and Support Agreement
In connection with our initial public offering, on February 4, 2021, Sponsor and our officers and directors at the time of our initial public offering entered into a letter agreement (the “IPO Letter Agreement”) pursuant to which they agreed, among other things, to vote their Class B ordinary shares purchased prior to our initial public offering (“founder shares”), as well as any Class A ordinary shares sold by us in our initial public offering (“public shares”) purchased by them during or after our initial public offering, in favor of Altimar II’s initial

business combination (including the proposal recommended by Altimar II’s board of directors in connection with such business combination). Accordingly, we expect them to vote their shares in favor of all proposals being presented at the Special Meeting. In addition, pursuant to the Forfeiture and Support Agreement, dated July 15, 2021 (as amended from time to time, the “Forfeiture and Support Agreement”), the parties, agreed, among other things, effective upon the Closing that, (a) Sponsor, on behalf of itself and the other Altimar II Founders, will waive the anti-dilution adjustments set forth in Altimar II’s existing Memorandum and Articles of Association and which will be set forth in Altimar II’s Certificate of Incorporation in connection with the Business Combination, (b) the Altimar II Founders will forfeit and surrender for no additional consideration the Forfeited Shares (as defined herein) which would be received upon the automatic conversion of their shares of Class C common stock upon the Closing and (c) Sponsor, from the date of the Business Combination Agreement until the earlier of Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms, will refrain from taking (and not cause Altimar II to take) any action the effect of which would be to cause Altimar II to breach its non-solicitation obligations set forth in Section 9.08 of the Business Combination Agreement. In addition, the Altimar II Founders agreed, among other things, (i) from the date of the Business Combination Agreement until the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms, to not redeem any Class A ordinary shares (or, if applicable, shares of Altimar II Class A common stock) held by them and (ii) prior to the consummation of Business Combination or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement, to vote or cause to be voted, all of the Altimar II shares beneficially owned by the Altimar II Founders, at every meeting of the shareholders of Altimar II at which such matters are considered and at every adjournment or postponement thereof: (1) in favor of (A) the Business Combination and the Business Combination Agreement and the other transactions contemplated thereby (including any proposals recommended by Altimar II’s Board of Directors in connection with the Business Combination) and (B) any proposal to adjourn or postpone such meeting of shareholders to a later date if there are not sufficient votes to approve the Business Combination; (2) against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that could reasonably be expected to result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of Altimar II under the Business Combination Agreement; and (3) against (A) any proposal or offer from any person concerning (I) a merger, consolidation, liquidation, recapitalization, share exchange or other business combination transaction involving Altimar II, or (II) the issuance or acquisition of shares of capital stock or other Altimar II equity securities (other than as contemplated or permitted by the Business Combination Agreement); and (B) any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that would reasonably be expected to (x) impede the fulfillment of Altimar II’s conditions under the Business Combination Agreement or change in any manner the voting rights of any class of Altimar II’s shares or (y) result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or other obligation or agreement of Sponsor or any of the other Altimar II Founders contained in the Forfeiture and Support Agreement.
As described above, the Forfeited Shares to be forfeited by the Altimar II Founders shall be determined as follows: effective upon and subject to the closing of the Business Combination, (i) if the quotient of (A) the number of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares redeemed in the Altimar II Stock Redemption divided by (B) 34,500,000 (the “Altimar II Stockholder Redemption Ratio”) is less than or equal to 0.10, each then issued and outstanding share of Class C common stock will convert automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into a share of Class A common stock; (ii) if the Altimar II Stockholder Redemption Ratio is greater than 0.10 and less than to 0.40, the number of shares of Class A common stock obtained by multiplying the Redemption Forfeiture Ratio (which is obtained by the following formula: 0.15
multiplied by
the quotient of (1) the result of (x) the Altimar II Stockholder Redemption Ratio
minus
(y) 0.10,
divided by
(2) 0.30) by the aggregate number of then issued and outstanding shares of Altimar Class C common stock shall be automatically forfeited and (iii) if the Altimar II Stockholder Redemption Ratio is greater than or equal to 0.40, the number of shares of Class A common stock obtained by multiplying 0.15 by the aggregate number of then issued and outstanding shares of Class C common stock will be automatically forfeited.
In addition, Sponsor and each of the other Altimar II Founders, in their capacity as holders of Altimar II Class B ordinary shares, have also agreed (a) not to, prior to the consummation of Business Combination or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement, transfer any of the their Class B ordinary shares (or shares of Class C common stock received in the Domestication), and in the case of Sponsor, its warrants to acquire Altimar II Class A ordinary shares, except to certain permitted transferees that agree to be bound by the terms of the Forfeiture

and Support Agreement and (b) for the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending on the earlier to occur of (i) the one (1)-year anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) the last day of the Qualifying Period (as defined below), if the VWAP of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share for any twenty (20) Trading Days (as defined in the Forfeiture and Support Agreement) within a period of thirty (30) consecutive Trading Days commencing at least 150 days after the Closing Date (the “Qualifying Period”), not to transfer any of such Sponsor’s or other Altimar II Founder’s Altimar ordinary shares or Altimar common stock (other than in the case of the Sponsor, shares of Class A common stock acquired pursuant to the PIPE Investment).
Under the terms of the Forfeiture and Support Agreement, Sponsor agreed that, from and after the Closing, 1,267,500 Altimar II Class B ordinary shares (or, following the Domestication, shares of Class C common stock or Class A common stock, as applicable) held by Sponsor (other than any shares of Altimar II common stock issued to Sponsor pursuant to the PIPE Investment) (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”) will be unvested and restricted and that such shares will vest automatically if (a) the VWAP of the Altimar II Class A common stock equals or exceeds $15.00 per share for any twenty (20) trading days within a period of thirty (30) consecutive trading days and (b) there is a change of control of Altimar II, unless the per share consideration to be received by the holders of Class A common stock in such change of control transaction is less than the vesting threshold applicable to the Sponsor Earnout Shares (each of (a) and (b), a “Vesting Event”). To the extent that, on or prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, a Vesting Event did not occur, all outstanding unvested Sponsor Earnout Shares will automatically be forfeited.
Sponsor also agreed to, at the Closing and subject to the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement, provide funds to Altimar II to satisfy the funding of certain transaction expenses, after utilizing the unused portion of the working capital amount funded by Sponsor to Altimar II prior to the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, that are in excess of the aggregate $27,000,000 cap referenced in Section 4.03(b) of the Business Combination Agreement.

In particular, from and after the Closing Date, the CORE Investors shall have the right, but not the obligation, to nominate to the Fathom board a number of designees equal to at least: (i) a majority of the board’s seats, so long as the CORE Investors beneficially own shares of common stock representing at least 50% of the total shares of Fathom common stock beneficially owned by the CORE Investors immediately after the Closing (the “Original Amount”), (ii) 35% of the board’s seats, in the event that the CORE Investors beneficially own shares of common stock representing at least 20% but less than 35% of the Original Amount, (iii) 20% of the board’s seats, in the event that the CORE Investors beneficially own shares of common stock representing at least 10% but less than 20% of the Original Amount and (iv) one director, in the event that the CORE Investors beneficially own shares of common stock representing at least 5% of the Original Amount. For purposes of calculating the number of directors that the CORE Investors are entitled to designate pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, any fractional amounts shall automatically be rounded up to the nearest whole number (e.g., 1
1
/
4
 directors shall equate to 2 directors) and any such calculations shall be made after taking into account any increase in the size of the board. In addition, for so long as the CORE Investors beneficially own shares of common stock representing at least 5% of the Original Amount, CORE Investors will have the right to designate a person to attend meetings of the board (including any meetings of any committees thereof) in a
non-voting
observer capacity.
The parties to the Investor Rights Agreement will agree (subject to exceptions for permitted transfers) to a contractual
lock-up
on the sale of Class A common stock for the period beginning on the Closing Date and ending one hundred eighty (180) days thereafter (the
“Lock-Up
Period”).
In addition, the CORE Investors and the other parties to the Investor Rights Agreement will agree to the vesting terms of the Earnout Shares. After expiration of the
Lock-Up
Period, the unvested Earnout Shares will not be transferable and those already vested Earnout Shares will only be transferable to those permitted transferees under the Investor Rights Agreement. In the event that any unvested Earnout Shares have not vested on or prior to the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date, those Earnout Shares that have not vested will automatically be forfeited and surrendered to Fathom for no consideration.
Registration Rights Agreement
Upon Closing, Fathom will enter into a Registration Rights Agreement. Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, Fathom will grant to the Legacy Fathom Owners, including the CORE Investors, Sponsor and the other Altimar II Founders customary demand, shelf and piggyback registration rights. Fathom is required to file within thirty days of the Closing a shelf registration statement registering the public resale of the shares of common stock of Fathom held by such stockholders (“Shelf Registration Statement”), and cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof and no later than the earlier of (A) 60 calendar days after the filing thereof (or, in the event the SEC reviews and has written comments to the Shelf Registration Statement, the 90th calendar day following the filing thereof) and (B) the 10th business day after the date Fathom is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that it will not review the Shelf Registration Statement.

Proxies that are marked “abstain” and proxies relating to “street name” shares that are returned to Altimar II but marked by brokers as “not voted” will be treated as shares present for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum on all matters. They will also not be treated as shares voted on the matter. If a shareholder does not give the broker voting instructions, under applicable self-regulatory organization rules, its broker may not vote its shares on
“non-routine”
proposals, such as the Business Combination Proposal and the Domestication Proposal.
Vote Required for Approval
The approval of the Business Combination Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting.
The approval of the Domestication Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
two-thirds
of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to

vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. The Domestication Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal. Therefore, if the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, the Domestication Proposal will have no effect, even if approved. Under the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, prior to the closing of a business combination (as defined therein) only the holders of Altimar II Class B ordinary shares will be entitled to vote on the Domestication Proposal.
The approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal requires a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
two-thirds
of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. The Organizational Documents Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Domestication Proposal, and, therefore, also conditioned on approval of the Business Combination Proposal. Therefore, if the Business Combination Proposal or the Domestication Proposal is not approved, the Organizational Documents Proposal will have no effect, Under the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, prior to the closing of a business combination (as defined therein) only the holders of Altimar II Class B ordinary shares will be entitled to vote on the Organizational Documents Proposal.
The approval of any of the Advisory Charter Proposals is not otherwise required by Cayman Islands law or Delaware law separate and apart from the Organizational Documents Proposal, but pursuant to SEC guidance, Altimar II is required to submit these provisions to its stockholders separately for approval. However, the stockholder votes regarding these proposals are advisory votes, and are not binding on Altimar II or the Altimar II Board (separate and apart from the approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal). Furthermore, the Business Combination is not conditioned on the separate approval of the Advisory Charter Proposals (separate and apart from approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal).
The approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of a majority of the holders of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. The Stock Issuance Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal, and, therefore, also conditioned on approval of the Domestication Proposal and the Business Combination Proposal. Therefore, if the Business Combination Proposal, the Domestication Proposal or the Organizational Documents Proposal is not approved, the Stock Issuance Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by our public shareholders.
The approval of the Business Combination Issuance Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. The Business Combination Issuance Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Stock Issuance Proposal and, therefore, also conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal and the Organizational Documents Proposal. Therefore, if any of those proposals are not approved, the Business Combination Issuance Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by our public shareholders.
The approval of the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. The Equity Incentive Plan Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Issuance Proposal and, therefore, also conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposals and Stock Issuance Proposal. Therefore, if any of those proposals is not approved, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by Altimar II’s Public Shareholders.
The approval of the ESPP Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. The ESPP Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Issuance Proposal and, therefore, also conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposals and Stock Issuance Proposal.

Therefore, if any of those proposals is not approved, the ESPP Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by Altimar II’s Public Shareholders.
The approval of the Adjournment Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. The Adjournment Proposal is not conditioned upon any other proposal.
In each case, abstentions and broker
non-votes,
while considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum, will not count as a vote cast at the Special Meeting.
Voting Your Shares
Each ordinary share that you own in your name entitles you to one vote. Your proxy card shows the number of ordinary shares that you own. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. There are two ways to vote your ordinary shares at the Special Meeting:
 
   
You Can Vote By Signing and Returning the Enclosed Proxy Card
. If you vote by proxy card, your “proxy,” whose name is listed on the proxy card, will vote your shares as you instruct on the proxy card. If you sign and return the proxy card but do not give instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares will be voted as recommended by Altimar II’s board “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the Domestication Proposal, “FOR” each of the separate Organizational Documents Proposal, “FOR” the Stock Issuance Proposal, “FOR” each of the Advisory Charter Proposals, “FOR” the Business Combination Issuance Proposal, “FOR” the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, “FOR” the ESPP Proposal and “FOR” the Adjournment Proposal, in each case, if presented to the Special Meeting. Votes received after a matter has been voted upon at the Special Meeting will not be counted.
 
   
You Can Attend the Special Meeting and Vote in Person
. You will receive a ballot when you arrive. However, if your shares are held in the name of your broker, bank or another nominee, you must get a valid legal proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee. That is the only way Altimar II can be sure that the broker, bank or nominee has not already voted your shares.
Revoking Your Proxy
If you are an Altimar II shareholder and you give a proxy, you may revoke it at any time before it is exercised by doing any one of the following:
 
   
you may send another proxy card with a later date;
 
   
you may notify Innisfree M&A Incorporated, Altimar II’s proxy solicitor , in writing before the Special Meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or
 
   
you may attend the Special Meeting, revoke your proxy, and vote in person or virtually, as indicated above.
Who Can Answer Your Questions About Voting Your Shares
If you are a shareholder and have any questions about how to vote or direct a vote in respect of your ordinary shares, you may call Innisfree M&A Incorporated, our proxy solicitor, by calling (877)
750-8129,
or banks and brokers can call collect at (212)
750-5833.
Redemption Rights
Public Shareholders may seek to redeem the public shares that they hold, regardless of whether they vote for the Business Combination, against the Business Combination or do not vote in relation to the Business Combination. Any Public Shareholder may request redemption of their public shares for a
per-share
price,
 
136

Table of Contents
payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest, less income taxes payable, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares. If a holder properly seeks redemption as described in this section and the Business Combination is consummated, the holder will no longer own these shares following the Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such holder or any other person with whom such holder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to 15% or more of the shares of the public shares. Accordingly, if a Public Shareholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash.
Altimar II’s initial shareholders will not have redemption rights with respect to any ordinary shares owned by them, directly or indirectly.
You will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if you:
 
  (i)
(a) hold public shares or (b) hold public shares through units and you elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares; and
 
  (ii)
prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on                 , 2021, (a) submit a written request to the transfer agent that Altimar II redeem your public shares for cash and (b) deliver your share certificates for your public shares (if any) to the transfer agent, physically or electronically through DTC.
If you hold the shares in street name, you will have to coordinate with your broker to have your shares certificated or delivered electronically. Public shares that have not been tendered (either physically or electronically) in accordance with these procedures will not be redeemed for cash. There is a nominal cost associated with this tendering process and the act of certificating the shares or delivering them through the DWAC system. The transfer agent will typically charge the tendering broker $80 and it would be up to the broker whether or not to pass this cost on to the redeeming shareholder. In the event the Business Combination is not consummated this may result in an additional cost to shareholders for the return of their shares.
Holders of units must elect to separate the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If holders hold their units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the units into the underlying public shares and public warrants, or if a holder holds units registered in its own name, the holder must contact the transfer agent, directly and instruct them to do so.
An Altimar II shareholder may not withdraw a redemption request once submitted to Altimar II unless the board of directors of Altimar II determines (in its sole discretion) to permit the withdrawal of such redemption request (which they may do in whole or in part). Furthermore, if a holder of a public share delivers its certificate (if any) and other redemption forms in connection with an election of its redemption and subsequently decides prior to the applicable date not to elect to exercise such rights, it may simply request Altimar II to permit the withdrawal of the redemption request and instruct its transfer agent to return the certificate (physically or electronically). The holder can make such request by contacting the transfer agent, at the address or email address listed in this proxy statement/prospectus.
If the Business Combination is not approved or completed for any reason, then Altimar II’s public shareholders who elected to exercise their redemption rights will not be entitled to redeem their shares. In such case, Altimar II will promptly return any shares previously delivered by public holders.
The closing price of ordinary shares on                 , 2021, the record date, was $    . Prior to exercising redemption rights, shareholders should verify the market price of ordinary shares as they may receive higher

Table of Contents
proceeds from the sale of their ordinary shares in the public market than from exercising their redemption rights if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price. Altimar II cannot assure its shareholders that they will be able to sell their ordinary shares in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in its securities when its shareholders wish to sell their shares.
If a Public Shareholder exercises its redemption rights, then it will be exchanging its redeemed public shares for cash and will no longer own those public shares. You will be entitled to receive cash for your public shares only if you properly exercise your right to redeem the public shares that you will hold upon the Domestication, no later than the close of the vote on the Business Combination Proposal, and deliver your ordinary shares (either physically or electronically) to the transfer agent, prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on                 , 2021, and the Business Combination is consummated.
In order for Public Shareholders to exercise their redemption rights in respect of the Business Combination, Public Shareholders must properly exercise their right to redeem the public shares that you will hold upon the Domestication no later than the close of the vote on the Business Combination Proposal and deliver their ordinary shares (either physically or electronically) to the transfer agent, prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time on                 , 2021. Therefore, the exercise of redemption rights occurs prior to the Domestication. For the purposes of Article 49.3 of the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of Altimar II and Cayman Islands law, the exercise of redemption rights shall be treated as an election to have such public shares repurchased for cash and references in this proxy statement/prospectus shall be interpreted accordingly. Immediately following the Domestication and the consummation of the business combination, Public Shareholders who properly exercised their redemption rights in respect of their public shares shall be paid.
No Appraisal Rights
Neither Altimar II shareholders nor Altimar II warrant holders have appraisal rights in connection with the business combination or the Domestication under Cayman Islands law or under the DGCL.
Proxy Solicitation Costs
Altimar II is soliciting proxies on behalf of its board of directors. This solicitation is being made by mail but also may be made by telephone or in person. Altimar II and its directors, officers and employees may also solicit proxies in person, by telephone or by other electronic means. Altimar II will bear the cost of the solicitation.
Altimar II has hired Innisfree M&A Incorporated to assist in the proxy solicitation process. Altimar II will pay that firm a customary fee for its services. Such fee will be paid with
non-Trust
Account funds.
Altimar II will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward the proxy materials to their principals and to obtain their authority to execute proxies and voting instructions. Altimar II will reimburse them for their reasonable expenses.

PROPOSAL NO. 1 — THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL
Holders of Altimar II ordinary shares are being asked to approve the Business Combination Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Business Combination. Altimar II shareholders should read carefully this proxy statement/prospectus in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the Business Combination Agreement, substantially in the form attached as
Annex C
to this proxy statement/prospectus. Please see the sections entitled “
The Business Combination Agreement
” in this proxy statement/prospectus for additional information regarding the Business Combination and a summary of certain terms of the Business Combination Agreement. You are urged to read carefully the Business Combination Agreement in its entirety before voting on this proposal.
Altimar II may consummate the Business Combination only if it is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting.
Resolution to be Voted Upon
The full text of the resolution to be proposed is as follows:
“RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, that Altimar II’s entry into the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2021, by and among Altimar II, Fathom Holdco, LLC and the other parties thereto (in the form attached to the proxy statement/prospectus as
Annex C
), and the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination”) be confirmed, ratified and approved in all respects.”
Interests of Altimar II Directors and Officers in the Business Combination
In considering the recommendation of the board of directors of Altimar II to vote in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Domestication Proposal, the Organizational Documents Proposal and the other Shareholder Proposals, shareholders should keep in mind that certain members of the board of directors and officers of Altimar II and the Sponsor, including its directors and officers, have interests in such proposals that are different from, or in addition to, those of Altimar II’s shareholders generally. In particular:
 
   
If Altimar II does not consummate a business combination by February 9, 2023 (unless such date is extended in accordance with the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association), it would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeeming all of the outstanding Class A ordinary shares for cash and, subject to the approval of its remaining shareholders and its board of directors, dissolving and liquidating, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In such event, the 8,625,000 Class B ordinary shares would be worthless because following the redemption of the Class A ordinary shares, Altimar II would likely have few, if any, net assets and because the holders of our Class B ordinary shares have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Class B ordinary shares if we fail to complete a Business Combination within the required period. Sponsor purchased the Class B ordinary shares prior to our initial public offering for approximately $0.003 per share. The shares of Class A common stock that the existing holders of Class B ordinary shares will hold following the Business Combination, if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had aggregate market value of $    based upon the closing price of $    per share of public share on the NYSE on                 , the record date. Given such shares will be subject to
lock-up
restrictions, we believe such shares have less value.
 
   
Sponsor purchased 9,900,000 Private Placement Warrants, each exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, at a price of $1.00 per warrant, and such Private Placement Warrants will expire and be worthless if a business combination is not consummated within 24 months of the consummation of the IPO (unless such date is extended in accordance with the Existing Organizational Documents).
 
139

Table of Contents
   
Altimar II’s existing directors and officers will be eligible for continued indemnification and continued coverage under Altimar II’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance after the Business Combination.
 
   
In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to Altimar II if and to the extent any claims by a vendor for services rendered or products sold to Altimar II, or a prospective target business with which Altimar II has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of Altimar II’s initial public offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.
 
   
Following consummation of the Business Combination, Sponsor, our officers and directors and their respective affiliates would be entitled to reimbursement for certain reasonable
out-of-pocket
expenses related to identifying, investigating and consummating an initial business combination, and repayment of any other loans, if any, and on such terms as to be determined by Altimar II from time to time, made by Sponsor or certain of our officers and directors to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination. However, if Altimar II fails to consummate a business combination within the required period, Sponsor and Altimar II’s officers and directors and their respective affiliates will not have any claim against the Trust Account for reimbursement.
 
   
Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, Fathom grants the Legacy Fathom Owners and Altimar II Founders certain customary demand, shelf and piggyback registration rights.
Vote Required for Approval
The approval of this Business Combination Proposal (and consequently, the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, including the Business Combination) requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present in person (or represented by proxy) and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for purposes of establishing quorum, will not count as a vote cast at the Special Meeting.
Failure to submit a proxy or to vote in person or virtually at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting or a broker
non-vote
will have no effect on the Business Combination Proposal.
The Business Combination is conditioned upon the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, subject to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement. If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, the other Shareholder Proposals (except the Adjournment Proposal, as described below) will not be presented to the shareholders for a vote.
The Sponsor and Altimar II’s directors and officers have agreed to vote the founder shares and any Class A ordinary shares owned by them in favor of the Business Combination Proposal. See “
The Business Combination Agreement — Related Agreements — Forfeiture and Support Agreement
” for more information.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 — THE DOMESTICATION PROPOSAL
Overview
As discussed in this proxy statement/prospectus, if the Business Combination Proposal is approved, then Altimar II is asking its shareholders to approve the Domestication Proposal. Under the Business Combination Agreement, the approval of the Domestication Proposal is also a condition to the consummation of the Business Combination. If, however, the Domestication Proposal is approved, but the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, then neither the Domestication nor the Business Combination will be consummated.
As a condition to closing the Business Combination pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, the board of directors of Altimar II has unanimously approved a change of Altimar II’s jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware by deregistering as an exempted company in the Cayman Islands and continuing and domesticating as a corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Domestication”). To effect the Domestication, Altimar II will file a notice of deregistration with the Cayman Islands Registrar of Companies, together with the necessary accompanying documents, and file a certificate of incorporation and a certificate of corporate Domestication with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, under which Altimar II will be domesticated and continue as a Delaware corporation. On the effective date of the domestication, (a) each outstanding Class A ordinary share will automatically convert into one share of Class A common stock, (b) each outstanding Class B ordinary share will automatically convert into one share of Class C common stock, which shares will then automatically convert into one share of Class A common stock and (c) the outstanding warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares will automatically become exercisable for shares of Class A common stock. In addition, at a moment in time after the effectiveness of the Domestication and before the closing of the Business Combination, each outstanding unit (each of which will consist of one share of Class A common stock and
one-fourth
of one warrant to purchase one share of Class A common stock) will be separated into its component common stock and warrant.
The Domestication Proposal, if approved, will approve a change of Altimar II’s jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to the State of Delaware. Accordingly, while Altimar II is currently governed by the Cayman Islands Companies Act, upon Domestication, Altimar II will be governed by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”). We urge shareholders to carefully consult the information set out below under “
The Domestication Proposal — Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholder Rights
.” Additionally, we note that if the Domestication Proposal is approved, then Altimar II will also ask its shareholders to approve the Organizational Documents Proposal (discussed below), which, if approved, will replace our current amended and restated memorandum and articles of association under the Cayman Islands law (the “Existing Organizational Documents”) with a new certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Fathom under the DGCL (the “Proposed Organizational Documents”). The Proposed Organizational Documents differ in certain material respects from the Existing Organizational Documents and we urge shareholders to carefully consult the information set out below under “
The Organizational Documents Proposal
,” the Existing Organizational Documents of Altimar II, attached hereto as
Annex K
and the Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws, attached hereto as
Annex A
and
Annex B
, respectively.
Reasons for the Domestication
Our board of directors believes that there are significant advantages to Altimar II that will arise as a result of a change of domicile to Delaware. Further, our board of directors believes that any direct benefit that Delaware law provides to a corporation also indirectly benefits the shareholders, who are the owners of the corporation. The board of directors believes that there are several reasons why a reincorporation in Delaware is in the best interests of Altimar II and its shareholders, including:
Prominence, Predictability, and Flexibility of Delaware Law
. For many years Delaware has followed a policy of encouraging incorporation in its state and, in furtherance of that policy, has been a leader in adopting, construing, and implementing comprehensive, flexible corporate laws responsive to the legal and business needs
 
141

Table of Contents
of corporations organized under its laws. Many corporations have chosen Delaware initially as a state of incorporation or have subsequently changed corporate domicile to Delaware. Because of Delaware’s prominence as the state of incorporation for many major corporations, both the legislature and courts in Delaware have demonstrated the ability and a willingness to act quickly and effectively to meet changing business needs. The DGCL is frequently revised and updated to accommodate changing legal and business needs and is more comprehensive, widely used and interpreted than other state corporate laws. This favorable corporate and regulatory environment is attractive to businesses such as ours. Based on publicly available data, over half of publicly-traded corporations in the United States and over 67% of all Fortune 500 companies are incorporated in Delaware.
Well-Established Principles of Corporate Governance
. There is substantial judicial precedent in the Delaware courts as to the legal principles applicable to measures that may be taken by a corporation and to the conduct of a corporation’s board of directors, such as under the business judgment rule and other standards. Because the judicial system is based largely on legal precedents, the abundance of Delaware case law provides clarity and predictability to many areas of corporate law. Such clarity would be advantageous to Altimar II, its board of directors and management to make corporate decisions and take corporate actions with greater assurance as to the validity and consequences of those decisions and actions. Further, investors and securities professionals are generally more familiar with Delaware corporations, and the laws governing such corporations, increasing their level of comfort with Delaware corporations relative to other jurisdictions. The Delaware courts have developed considerable expertise in dealing with corporate issues, and a substantial body of case law has developed construing Delaware law and establishing public policies with respect to corporate legal affairs. Moreover, Delaware’s vast body of law on the fiduciary duties of directors provides appropriate protection for Altimar II’s shareholders from possible abuses by directors and officers.
Increased Ability to Attract and Retain Qualified Directors
. Reincorporation from the Cayman Islands to Delaware is attractive to directors, officers, and shareholders alike. Altimar II’s incorporation in Delaware may make Altimar II more attractive to future candidates for our board of directors, because many such candidates are already familiar with Delaware corporate law from their past business experience. To date, we have not experienced difficulty in retaining directors or officers, but directors of public companies are exposed to significant potential liability. Thus, candidates’ familiarity and comfort with Delaware laws — especially those relating to director indemnification (as discussed below) — draw such qualified candidates to Delaware corporations. Our board of directors therefore believes that providing the benefits afforded directors by Delaware law will enable Fathom, following completion of the Business Combination, to compete more effectively with other public companies in the recruitment of talented and experienced directors and officers. Moreover, Delaware’s vast body of law on the fiduciary duties of directors provides appropriate protection for our shareholders from possible abuses by directors and officers.
The frequency of claims and litigation pursued against directors and officers has greatly expanded the risks facing directors and officers of corporations in carrying out their respective duties. The amount of time and money required to respond to such claims and to defend such litigation can be substantial. While both Cayman Islands and Delaware law permit a corporation to include a provision in its governing documents to reduce or eliminate the monetary liability of directors for breaches of fiduciary duty in certain circumstances, we believe that, in general, Delaware law is more developed and provides more guidance than Cayman Islands law on matters regarding a corporation’s ability to limit director liability. As a result, we believe that the corporate environment afforded by Delaware will enable the surviving corporation to compete more effectively with other public companies in attracting and retaining new directors.
Anticipated Accounting Treatment of the Domestication
There will be no accounting effect or change in the carrying amount of the consolidated assets and liabilities of Altimar II as a result of Domestication. The business, capitalization, assets and liabilities and financial statements of Altimar II immediately following the Domestication will be the same as those of Altimar II immediately prior to the Domestication.

Comparison of Corporate Governance and Shareholders
Altimar II is an exempted company incorporated under the Cayman Islands Companies Act. The Cayman Islands Companies Act and Altimar II’s Existing Organizational Documents govern the rights of its shareholders. The Cayman Islands Companies Act differs in some material respects from laws generally applicable to United States corporations and their stockholders. In addition, the Existing Organizational Documents will differ in certain material respects from the Proposed Organizational Documents. As a result, when you become a stockholder of Fathom, your rights will differ in some regards as compared to when you were a shareholder of Altimar II.
Below is a summary chart outlining important similarities and differences in the corporate governance and stockholder/shareholder rights associated with each of Altimar II and Fathom according to applicable law and/or the organizational documents of Altimar II and Fathom. You also should review the Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws attached hereto as
Annex A
and
Annex B
, respectively, to this proxy statement/prospectus, as well as the Delaware corporate law and corporate laws of the Cayman Islands, including the Cayman Islands Companies Act, to understand how these laws apply to Altimar II and Fathom.

Stockholder/Shareholder Approval of Business Combinations
   Mergers generally require approval of a majority of all outstanding shares.    Mergers require a special resolution, and any other authorization as may be specified in the relevant articles of association. Parties holding certain security interests in the constituent companies must also consent.
   Mergers in which less than 20% of the acquirer’s stock is issued generally do not require acquirer stockholder approval.    All mergers (other than parent/subsidiary mergers) require shareholder approval — there is no exception for smaller mergers.
   Mergers in which one corporation owns 90% or more of a second corporation may be completed without the vote of the second corporation’s board of directors or stockholders.    Where a bidder has acquired 90% or more of the shares in a Cayman Islands company, it can compel the acquisition of the shares of the remaining shareholders and thereby become the sole shareholder. A Cayman Islands company may also be acquired through a “scheme of arrangement” sanctioned by a Cayman Islands court and approved by 50% + 1 in number and 75% in value of shareholders in attendance and voting at a general meeting.
Stockholder/Shareholder Votes for Routine Matters
   Generally, approval of routine corporate matters that are put to a stockholder vote require the affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the    Under the Cayman Islands Companies Act the Existing Organizational Documents, routine corporate matters may be approved by an ordinary resolution (being a resolution

Appraisal Rights
   Generally a stockholder of a publicly traded corporation does not have appraisal rights in connection with a merger, except in certain circumstances.    Minority shareholders that dissent from a merger are entitled to be paid the fair market value of their shares, which if necessary may ultimately be determined by the court.
Inspection of Books and Records
   Any stockholder may inspect the corporation’s books and records for a proper purpose during the usual hours for business.    Shareholders generally do not have any rights to inspect or obtain copies of the register of shareholders or other corporate records of a company.
Stockholder/Shareholder Lawsuits
   A stockholder may bring a derivative suit subject to procedural requirements (including adopting Delaware as the exclusive forum as per
Organizational Documents Proposal 3E).
   In the Cayman Islands, the decision to institute proceedings on behalf of a company is generally taken by the company’s board of directors. A shareholder may be entitled to bring a derivative action on behalf of the company, but only in certain limited circumstances.
Fiduciary Duties of Directors
   Directors must exercise a duty of care and duty of loyalty and good faith to the company and its stockholders.    A director owes fiduciary duties to a company, including to exercise loyalty, honesty and good faith to the company as a whole.
      In addition to fiduciary duties, directors owe a duty of care, diligence and skill. Such duties are owed to the company but may be owed direct to creditors or shareholders in certain limited circumstances
Indemnification of Directors and Officers

PROPOSAL NO. 3 — THE ORGANIZATIONAL DOCUMENTS PROPOSAL
Overview
As discussed in this proxy statement/prospectus, if the Business Combination Proposal and the Domestication Proposal are approved, then Altimar II is asking its shareholders to approve the Organizational Documents Proposal. Under the Business Combination Agreement, the approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal is also a condition to the consummation of the Business Combination. If, however, the Organizational Documents Proposal is approved but either the Business Combination Proposal or the Domestication Proposal is not approved, then neither the Business Combination nor the Domestication will be consummated.
If each of the other Condition Precedent Proposals and the Organizational Documents Proposal are each approved and the Business Combination is to be consummated, then the Proposed Charter and the Proposed Bylaws will be substantially in the form set forth on
Annex A
and
Annex B
, respectively, and each of the matters contemplated by the Advisory Charter Proposals will be included in the Proposed Charter adopted by Fathom. The approval or lack thereof of any of the Advisory Charter Proposals will not affect the effectiveness of the Organizational Documents Proposals if approved by Altimar II’s shareholders.
All shareholders are encouraged to read the Proposed Organizational Documents in their entirety for a more complete description of their terms.
Reasons for the Organizational Documents Proposal
Each of the Proposed Charter and the Proposed Bylaws was negotiated as part of the Business Combination. The Board’s specific reasons for each of the Advisory Charter Proposals (each of which are included in the Proposed Charter) are set forth in the Section “
The Advisory Charter Proposals
.”
Resolution to be Voted Upon
The full text of the resolution to be proposed is as follows:
“RESOLVED, as a special resolution, that the Existing Organizational Documents be amended and restated by their deletion and replacement in their entirety with the certificate of incorporation (the “Proposed Charter”) and bylaws of Fathom (annexed to the prospectus/proxy statement as
Annex A
and
Annex B
, respectively), which be approved and adopted as the certificate of incorporation and bylaws, respectively, of Fathom, effective upon the effectiveness of the Domestication.”
Vote Required for Approval
If the Business Combination Proposal and the Domestication Proposal are not approved, the Organizational Documents Proposal will not be presented at the Special Meeting. The approval of this Organizational Documents Proposal requires a special resolution under the Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the ordinary shares who, being present in person (or represented by proxy) and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for purposes of establishing quorum, will not count as a vote cast at the special meeting. Under the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, prior to the closing of a business combination (as defined therein) only the holders of Altimar II Class B ordinary shares will be entitled to vote on the Organizational Documents Proposal.

PROPOSAL NO. 4 — THE ADVISORY CHARTER PROPOSALS
As required by SEC guidance to give stockholders the opportunity to present their separate views on important corporate governance provisions, Altimar II is requesting that our stockholders vote upon, on a
non-binding
advisory basis, the Advisory Charter Proposals, which are separately being presented in accordance with SEC guidance and which will be voted upon on a
non-binding
advisory basis. This separate vote is not otherwise required by Delaware law or Cayman Islands law separate and apart from the Organizational Documents Proposal. However, the stockholder vote regarding each of the Advisory Charter Proposals is an advisory vote, and is not binding on the Company or our Board (separate and apart from the approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal). Furthermore, the Business Combination is not conditioned on the separate approval of the Advisory Charter Proposals (separate and apart from approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal). Accordingly, regardless of the outcome of the
non-binding
advisory vote on the Advisory Charter Proposals, Altimar II intends that the Proposed Charter will take effect upon the Closing (assuming approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal).
The following table sets forth a summary of the principal changes proposed to be made between the Existing Organizational Documents and the Proposed Organizational Documents. This summary is qualified by reference to the complete text of the Proposed Organizational Documents, copies of which are attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as
Annex A
and
Annex B
, respectively.
 
    
Existing Organizational Documents
  
Proposed Organizational Documents
Authorized Shares (Proposal 4A)
   Our Existing Organizational Documents authorized 555,000,000 shares, consisting of (a) 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, (b) 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares and (c) 5,000,000 preference shares.    The Proposed Organizational documents authorize 500,000,000 shares, consisting of (i) 300,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, (ii) 180,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, (iii) 10,000,000 shares of Class C common stock, par value $0.0001 per share and (iv) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock.
Amendments (Proposal 4B)
   Our Existing Organizational Documents provide that the provisions of the Existing Organizational Documents may be amended to change Altimar II’s name, alter or add to the articles of association, alter or add to the memorandum with respect to any objects, power or other matters specified therein, and reduce Altimar II’s share capital or any capital redemption reserve fund.    The Proposed Organizational Documents would provide that the Proposed Charter may be amended, altered, repealed or any provision of the Proposed Charter inconsistent therewith may be adopted by (i) in the case of Articles 5, 6,7, 10 and 11 of the Proposed Charter, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
sixty-six
and
two-thirds
percent (66 2/3%) of all the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote, voting together as a single class, at a meeting of the stockholders of Fathom called for that purpose and (ii) in the case of Articles 8 and 9 of the Proposed Charter, by the affirmative vote of

      the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of all the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote, voting together as a single class, at a meeting of the stockholders of Fathom called for that purpose, in each case, in addition to any other vote required by the Proposed Charter or otherwise required by law.
Director Election, Vacancies and Removal (Proposal 4C)
   Our Existing Organizational Documents provide that, prior to the closing of a business combination, holders of the Class B ordinary shares have the exclusive right to elect any director and holders of Class A ordinary shares have no right to vote on the election or removal of any director. Following the closing of a business combination, directors may be elected by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock. Our Existing Organizational Documents provide that newly-created directorships or any vacancy on the board of directors may be filled solely and exclusively by a majority vote of the remaining directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by the sole remaining director. Prior to the closing of a business combination, holders of the Class B ordinary shares have the exclusive right to remove any director and holders of Class A ordinary shares have no right to vote on the election or removal of any director. Following the closing of a business combination, directors may be removed by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock.    Our Proposed Organizational Documents provide that the election of directors shall be determined by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class or, in the event that holders of any class or series of capital stock are entitled to elect one or more directors, a plurality of the votes cast by such holders. Our Proposed Charter provides that newly-created directorships or any vacancy on the board of directors may be filled solely and exclusively by a majority vote of the remaining directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by the sole remaining director. Our Proposed Organizational Documents provide for the removal of directors only for cause and only upon (a) prior to the first date on which CORE and its Affiliated Companies first cease to own at least 50% of the Original Amount, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
sixty-six
and
two-thirds
percent (66 2/3%) of all the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class and (b) after the first date on which CORE and its Affiliated Companies cease to own at least 50% of the Original Amount, the

DGCL Section 203 and Business Combinations (Proposal 4D)
      Our Proposed Organizational Documents provide that we are not subject to Section 203 of the DGCL.
Forum Selection (Proposal 4E)
   Our Existing Organizational Documents do not contain an exclusive forum provision.    The Proposed Charter provides that the Delaware Court of Chancery, or, if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction thereof, another state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, will be the exclusive forum for certain actions and claims.
Voting Rights (Proposal 4F)
   Our Existing Organizational Documents provide that each holder of record of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares shall be entitled to one vote per share on all matters which shareholders are entitled to vote.    The Proposed Charter provides that each holder of record of Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof to shares of Class A common stock as a result of the Domestication) shall be entitled to one vote per share on all matters which stockholders generally are entitled to vote.
Dividends and Distributions (Proposal 4G)
   Our Existing Organizational Documents provide that all dividends and other distributions shall be paid according to the par value of the shares held be each shareholder.    The Proposed Organizational Documents provide that subject to the rights of the holders of Preferred Stock and to the other provisions of applicable law and the Proposed Charter, the holders of shares of Class A common stock and, solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon and as a result of the Business Combination, holders of Class C common stock, in each case shall be entitled to receive ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Class A common stock and Class C common stock (as applicable) held by them such dividends and distributions (payable in cash, stock or

      otherwise), if any, as may be declared thereon by the Board of Directors at any time and from time to time out of any funds of Fathom legally available therefor. There will be no disparate consideration or treatment with respect to dividends and distributions, if any, declared or payable in respect of each share of the Class A common stock and Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon and as a result of the Business Combination), on the one hand, and a New Fathom Unit, on the other hand. Dividends and other distributions shall not be declared or paid on the Class B common stock unless (i) the dividend consists of shares of Class B common stock or of rights, options, warrants or other securities convertible or exercisable into or exchangeable for shares of Class B common stock paid proportionally with respect to each outstanding share of Class B common stock and (ii) a dividend consisting of shares of Class A common stock, Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon and as a result of the Business Combination) or of rights, options, warrants or other securities convertible or exercisable into or exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock (to the extent a similar or contemptuous dividend or distribution is not paid on the New Fathom Units) or Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon and as a result of the Business Combination) on equivalent terms is simultaneously paid to the holders of Class A common stock and Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon

      and as a result of the Business Combination). If dividends are declared on the Class A common stock, the Class B common stock or the Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon and as a result of the Business Combination) that are payable in shares of common stock, or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock, the dividends payable to the holders of Class A common stock shall be paid only in shares of Class A common stock (or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for Class A common stock), the dividends payable to the holders of Class B common stock shall be paid only in shares of Class B common stock (or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for Class B common stock), the dividends payable to the holders of Class C common stock shall be paid only in shares of Class C common stock (or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for Class C common stock), and such dividends shall be paid in the same number of shares (or fraction thereof) on a per share basis of the Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock, respectively (or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for the same number of shares (or fraction thereof) on a per share basis of the Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock, respectively).
Removal of Blank Check Company Provisions (Proposal 4H)
   Our Existing Organizational Documents contain various    The Proposed Organizational Documents will not include these provisions applicable only to

Proposed Organizational Documents
   provisions applicable only to blank check companies.    blank check companies, including the provisions requiring that Altimar II have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 immediately prior to, or upon such consummation of, a business combination.
Reasons for the Advisory Charter Proposals
 
  (i)
Authorized Shares (Proposal 4A)
Our Existing Organizational Documents authorized 555,000,000 shares, consisting of (a) 500,000,000 Class A ordinary shares, (b) 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares and (c) 5,000,000 preference shares. Proposal 4A decreases the authorized number of shares to 500,000,000 shares, consisting of (a) 300,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, (b) 180,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, (c) 10,000,000 shares of Class C common stock and (d) 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock. The shares would be issuable as consideration for the Business Combination and the other transactions contemplated in this proxy statement/prospectus, and for any proper corporate purpose, including future acquisitions, capital raising transactions consisting of equity or convertible debt, stock dividends or issuances under current and any future stock incentive plans.
Our board of directors believes that this capital structure is appropriate for a newly public company such as Fathom.
 
  (ii)
Amendments to the Organizational Documents (Proposal 4B)
The Existing Organizational Documents provide that certain amendments may only be made pursuant to a special resolution under Cayman Islands law, which would require the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
two-thirds
of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote on the amendment, vote on such amendment, including amendments to (i) change Altimar II’s name, (ii) alter or add to the articles of association, (iii) alter or add to the memorandum of association with respect to any objects, power or other matters specified therein, and (iv) reduce Altimar II’s share capital or any capital redemption reserve fund. The Proposed Organizational Documents allow for the Proposed Charter to be amended, altered or repealed, or any provision of the Proposed Charter inconsistent therewith may be adopted by (i) in the case of Articles 5, 6,7, 10 and 11 of the Proposed Charter, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
sixty-six
and
two-thirds
percent (66 2/3%) of all the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote, voting together as a single class, at a meeting of the stockholders of Fathom called for that purpose and (ii) in the case of Articles 8 and 9 of the Proposed Charter, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least eighty percent (80%) of all the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote, voting together as a single class, at a meeting of the stockholders of Fathom called for that purpose, in each case, in addition to any other vote required by the Proposed Charter or otherwise required by law. The Board believes that the amendment approval standards contemplated by Proposal 4B are more appropriate for a public company with Fathom’s capital structure.
 
  (iii
)
Director Election, Director Vacancies and Removal (Proposal 4C)
At present, our Existing Organizational Documents provide that, prior to the closing of a business combination, holders of the Class B ordinary shares have the exclusive right to elect any director and holders of Class A ordinary shares have no right to vote on the election of any director, and, following the closing of a business combination, directors may be elected by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock. Our Existing Organizational Documents also provide that newly-created directorships or any vacancy on the board of directors may be filled solely and exclusively by a majority vote of the remaining directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by the sole remaining

director. Our Existing Organizational Documents further provide that, prior to the closing of a business combination, holders of the Class B ordinary shares have the exclusive right to remove any director and holders of Class A ordinary shares have no right to vote on the removal of any director, and, following the closing of a business combination, directors may be removed by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock. Proposal 4C provides that the Proposed Organizational Documents will permit for the election of directors by a plurality of the votes cast in respect of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors or, in the event that holders of any class or series of capital stock are entitled to elect one or more directors, a plurality of the votes cast by such holders. Proposal 4C also provides that newly-created directorships or any vacancy on the board of directors may be filled by a majority vote of the remaining directors then in office, even if less than a quorum or by the sole remaining director. With respect to removal of directors, Proposal 4C provides that any or all of the directors may be removed for cause and only upon (a) prior to the first date on which CORE and its affiliated companies first cease to own at least 50% of the Original Amount, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
sixty-six
and
two-thirds
percent (66 2/3%) of all the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class and (b) after the first date on which CORE and its affiliated companies cease to own at least 50% of the Original Amount, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the total voting power of all the then outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors. The Board believes that the amendments contemplated by Proposal 4C are more appropriate for a public company, like Fathom, in which CORE, as the largest shareholder upon closing of the Business Combination, will exert substantial influence on the affairs of Fathom.
 
  (iv)
DGCL Section 203 and Business Combinations (Proposal 4D)
Under our Existing Organizational Documents, Altimar II is not governed by Section 203 of the DGCL. Proposal 4D provides that Altimar II shall not be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL. We believe that the election not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL provides Altimar II with increased flexibility as to future, potentially value creating, transactions.
 
  (v)
Forum Selection (Proposal 4E)
Our Existing Organizational Documents do not contain an exclusive forum provision. Proposal 4E provides that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction thereof, another state or federal court located within the State of Delaware, shall be the exclusive forum for certain actions and claims. This amendment is intended to assist Altimar II in avoiding multiple lawsuits in multiple jurisdictions regarding the same matter. The ability to require such claims to be brought in a single forum will help to assure consistent consideration of the issues, the application of a relatively known body of case law and level of expertise, and should promote efficiency and cost-savings in the resolutions of such claims. We believe that the Delaware courts are best suited to address disputes involving such matters given that Altimar II intends to incorporate in Delaware (pending approval of the Domestication Proposal discussed above), Delaware law generally applies to such matters, and the Delaware courts have a reputation for expertise in corporate law matters. Delaware offers a specialized Court of Chancery to address corporate law matters, with streamlined procedures and processes to accelerate the timeline of legal decisions. This accelerated schedule can minimize the time, cost and uncertainty of litigation for all parties. The Court of Chancery has developed considerable expertise with respect to corporate law issues, as well as a substantial and influential body of case law construing Delaware’s corporate law and long-standing precedent regarding corporate governance. This provides shareholders and Altimar II with more predictability regarding the outcome of intra-corporate disputes. In the event the Court of Chancery does not have jurisdiction, the other state courts located in Delaware would be the most appropriate forums because these courts have more expertise on matters of Delaware law compared to other jurisdictions.
In addition, this amendment is intended to promote judicial fairness and avoid conflicting results, as well as make Altimar II’s defense of applicable claims less disruptive and more economically feasible, principally by avoiding duplicative discovery. At the same time, we believe that Altimar II should retain the ability to consent
 
153

Table of Contents
to an alternative forum on a
case-by-case
basis where Altimar II determines that its interests and those of its shareholders are best served by permitting such a dispute to proceed in a forum other than in Delaware.
The foregoing exclusive forum provision shall not apply to any claim arising under federal securities laws, including the Securities Act as to which the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Article XI of the Proposed Charter will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the sole and exclusive forum. Further, Section 22 of the Securities Act of 1933 creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by that act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce this forum selection provision as written as to claims arising under the Securities Act.
 
  (vi)
Voting Rights (Proposal 4F)
Our Existing Organizational Documents provide that each holder of record of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares shall be entitled to one vote per share on all matters which shareholders are entitled to vote. Proposal 4F provides that each holder of record of Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof to shares of Class A common stock as a result of the Domestication) shall be entitled to one vote per share on all matters which stockholders generally are entitled to vote. We believe that the Company’s success rests on the ability to undertake a long-term view and the voting rights set forth in the Proposed Charter will enhance the Company’s ability to focus on long-term value creation.
 
  (vii)
Dividends and Distributions (Proposal 4G)
Our Existing Organizational Documents provide that all dividends and other distributions shall be paid according to the par value of the shares held be each shareholder. Proposal 4G provides that subject to the rights of the holders of Preferred Stock and to the other provisions of applicable law and the Proposed Charter, the holders of shares of Class A common stock and, solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon and as a result of the Business Combination, holders of Class C common stock, in each case shall be entitled to receive ratably in proportion to the number of shares of Class A common stock and Class C common stock (as applicable) held by them such dividends and distributions (payable in cash, stock or otherwise), if any, as may be declared thereon by the Board of Directors at any time and from time to time out of any funds of Fathom legally available therefor. There will be no disparate consideration or treatment with respect to dividends and distributions, if any, declared or payable in respect of each share of the Class A common stock and Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon and as a result of the Business Combination), on the one hand, and a New Fathom Unit, on the other hand. Dividends and other distributions shall not be declared or paid on the Class B common stock unless (i) the dividend consists of shares of Class B common stock or of rights, options, warrants or other securities convertible or exercisable into or exchangeable for shares of Class B common stock paid proportionally with respect to each outstanding share of Class B common stock and (ii) a dividend consisting of shares of Class A common stock, Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon and as a result of the Business Combination) or of rights, options, warrants or other securities convertible or exercisable into or exchangeable for shares of Class A common stock (to the extent a similar or contemptuous dividend or distribution is not paid on the New Fathom Units) or Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon and as a result of the Business Combination) on equivalent terms is simultaneously paid to the holders of Class A common stock and Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon and as a result of the Business Combination). If dividends are declared on the Class A common stock, the Class B common stock or the Class C common stock (solely prior to the automatic conversion thereof upon and as a result of the Business Combination) that are payable in shares of common stock, or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for common stock, the dividends payable to the holders of Class A common stock shall be paid only in shares of Class A common stock (or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for

Class A common stock), the dividends payable to the holders of Class B common stock shall be paid only in shares of Class B common stock (or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for Class B common stock), the dividends payable to the holders of Class C common stock shall be paid only in shares of Class C common stock (or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for Class C common stock), and such dividends shall be paid in the same number of shares (or fraction thereof) on a per share basis of the Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock, respectively (or securities convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for the same number of shares (or fraction thereof) on a per share basis of the Class A common stock, Class B common stock and Class C common stock, respectively). We believe that the Company’s success rests on the ability to undertake a long-term view and procedures concerning our dividends and distributions will enhance the Company’s ability to focus on long-term value creation.
 
  (viii)
Removal of Blank Check Company Provisions (Proposal 4H)
Our Existing Organizational Documents contain various provisions applicable only to blank check companies. Proposal 4H eliminates certain provisions related to our status as a blank check company, including the provisions requiring that Altimar II have net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 immediately prior to, or upon such consummation of, a business combination, which is desirable because these provisions will serve no purpose following the Business Combination. For example, these proposed amendments remove the requirement to dissolve Altimar II and allow it to continue as a corporate entity with perpetual existence following consummation of the Business Combination. Perpetual existence is the usual period of existence for corporations, and we believe it is the most appropriate period for Altimar II following the Business Combination. In addition, certain other provisions in our Existing Organizational Documents require that proceeds from Altimar II’s initial public offering be held in the Trust Account until a business combination or liquidation of merger has occurred. These provisions cease to apply once the Business Combination is consummated.
Anti-Takeover Effects of the Proposed Organizational Documents and Certain Provisions of Delaware Law
The Proposed Organizational Documents will contain, and the DGCL contains, provisions that are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our board of directors. These provisions are intended to avoid costly takeover battles, reduce our vulnerability to a hostile change of control and enhance the ability of our board of directors to maximize shareholder value in connection with any unsolicited offer to acquire Altimar II. However, these provisions may have an anti-takeover effect and may delay, deter or prevent a merger or acquisition of Altimar II by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest or other takeover attempt that a shareholder might consider in its best interest, including those attempts that might result in a premium over the prevailing market price for the shares of common stock held by shareholders. See “
Description of Fathom’s Capital Stock
Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Delaware Law and our Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws

Resolution to be Voted Upon
The full text of the resolutions to be proposed are as follows:

Vote Required for Approval
The approval of each of the Advisory Charter Proposals, each of which is a
non-binding
advisory vote, requires a special resolution under the Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
two-thirds
of the ordinary shares who, being present in person (or represented by proxy) and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. Abstentions and broker
non-votes,
while considered present for purposes of establishing quorum, will not count as a vote cast at the Special Meeting. As discussed above, the Advisory Charter Proposals are advisory votes and therefore are not binding on Altimar II or our Board. Furthermore, the Business Combination is not conditioned on the separate approval of the Advisory Charter Proposals (separate and apart from approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal). Accordingly, regardless of the outcome of the
non-binding
advisory vote on the Advisory Charter Proposals, Altimar II intends that the Proposed Charter will take effect upon the Closing (assuming approval of the Organizational Documents Proposal).

Prior to and in connection with the Business Combination, we intend to effect the issuance and sale of 8,000,000 shares of Class A common stock to the PIPE Investors pursuant to subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”).
Why Altimar II Needs Shareholder Approval
We are seeking shareholder approval in order to comply with Rule 312.03 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.

The maximum aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock issuable pursuant to the Subscription Agreements represents greater than 20% of the number of shares of Class A common stock outstanding before such issuance. Moreover, to the extent that one or more of the PIPE Investors is a Related Party of Altimar II, such issuance may require shareholder approval under Rule 312.03 of the NYSE Listed Company Manual. As a result, shareholder approval of the issuance of shares of Class A common stock issuable pursuant to the Subscription Agreements is being sought under the NYSE regulations.
Resolution to be Voted Upon
The full text of the resolution to be proposed is as follows:
“RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, that, for the purposes of complying with the applicable New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) listing rules, the issuance of shares of Class A common stock of Fathom to the PIPE Investors pursuant to the Subscription Agreements (as defined in the proxy statement/prospectus) be confirmed, ratified and approved in all respects.”

PROPOSAL NO. 7 — THE EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSAL
The Board expects to approve the Fathom 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2021 Omnibus Plan”) and adopt the 2021 Omnibus Plan, effective as of the Closing, subject to the approval of our shareholders. We are seeking shareholder approval of the 2021 Omnibus Plan (i) in order for incentive stock options to meet the requirements of the Code and (ii) in order to comply with the NYSE listing rules.
The Board believes that the approval of the 2021 Omnibus Plan by the shareholders will benefit the compensation structure and strategy of Fathom. Fathom’s ability to attract, retain and motivate top quality management, employees, partners, consultants, advisors and
non-employee
directors is material to its success, and the Board has concluded that this would be enhanced by the ability to make grants under the 2021 Omnibus Plan. In addition, the Board believes that the interests of Fathom and shareholders will be advanced if Fathom can offer employees and
non-employee
directors the opportunity to acquire or increase their proprietary interests in Fathom.
Set forth below is a summary of the material terms of the 2021 Omnibus Plan. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the 2021 Omnibus Plan, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as
Annex H
. We urge our shareholders to read carefully the entire 2021 Omnibus Plan before voting on this proposal.
If approved by our shareholders, the 2021 Omnibus Plan will become effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination.
Summary of Material Terms of the 2021 Omnibus Plan
The following is a summary of the material features of the 2021 Omnibus Plan. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the 2021 Omnibus Plan attached as
Annex H
to this proxy statement/ prospectus.    
Purpose; Types of Awards
The purpose of the 2021 Omnibus Plan is to attract, retain and appropriately reward employees, directors, and consultants in order to motivate their performance in the achievement of Fathom’s business objectives and align their interests with the long-term interests of Fathom’s stockholders. To accomplish this purpose, the 2021 Omnibus Plan permits the granting of awards in the form of incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance based awards (including performance shares, performance units and performance bonus awards), and other stock-based or cash-based awards.
Shares Subject to the 2021 Omnibus Plan
An amount equal to 13% of total outstanding shares of Fathom Class A common stock determined as of the Closing will be reserved and available for issuance under the 2021 Omnibus Plan. The maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to options intended to be incentive stock options will be equal to this reserve (and for the avoidance of doubt, will be set forth as a specified number of shares in the plan document, in Compliance with the Code).
Non-employee
directors may only be granted and paid up to $900,000 (when taken together with any fees paid to such
non-employee
director) in compensation per fiscal year; provided, that any Awards granted under the Plan or other compensation received by a
non-employee
director related to the settlement, conversion or substitution of the
non-employee
director’s award(s) under the Fathom Holdco, LLC Phantom Equity Bonus Plan shall not count against such limit..
If an award granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan is forfeited, canceled, settled, or otherwise terminated the shares underlying that award will again become available for issuance under the 2021 Omnibus Plan. However, none of the following shares will be available for issuance under the 2021 Omnibus Plan: (i) shares delivered to
 
161

Table of Contents
or withheld to pay withholding taxes or any applicable exercise price, (ii) shares subject to any exercised stock-settled SAR or options. In addition, any shares tendered to exercise outstanding options or other awards or repurchased on the open market using exercise price proceeds will not be available for issuance under the 2021 Omnibus Plan. Any substitute awards shall not reduce the shares authorized for grant under the 2021 Omnibus Plan.
Administration of the 2021 Omnibus Plan
The 2021 Omnibus Plan will be administered by the plan administrator, who is the board of directors of Fathom or a committee that the board of directors of Fathom designates. The plan administrator has the power to determine the terms of the awards granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan, including the exercise price, the number of shares subject to each award, and the exercisability and vesting terms of the awards. The plan administrator also has the power to determine the persons to whom and the time or times at which awards will be made and to make all other determinations and take all other actions advisable for the administration of the 2021 Omnibus Plan. All decisions made by the administrator pursuant to the provisions of the 2021 Omnibus Plan will be final, conclusive and binding.
Participation
Participation in the 2021 Omnibus Plan will be open to employees,
non-employee
directors, or consultants, who have been selected as an eligible recipient under the 2021 Omnibus Plan by the plan administrator. Awards of incentive stock options, however, will be limited to employees of Fathom or its affiliates. As of the date of this filing, we had approximately 622 employees, all of whom following the consummation of the Business Combination may be eligible to participate in the 2021 Omnibus Plan. Awards will typically be limited to approximately 250 employees of Fathom and its subsidiaries. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, it is also expected that approximately 10 of our
non-employee
directors as well as 0 consultants will be eligible to participate in the 2021 Omnibus Plan.
Types of Awards
The types of awards that may be made under the 2021 Omnibus Plan are described below. All of the awards described below are subject to the conditions, limitations, restrictions, vesting and forfeiture provisions determined by the plan administrator, subject to the 2021 Omnibus Plan.
Stock Options
The 2021 Omnibus Plan provides for grants of both nonqualified and incentive stock options. A nonqualified stock option entitles the recipient to purchase our shares at a fixed exercise price. The exercise price per share will be determined by the compensation committee but such price will never be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant. Fair market value will generally be the closing price of a share of common stock on NYSE on the date of grant. Nonqualified stock options under the 2021 Omnibus Plan generally must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant. A nonqualified stock option is an option that does not meet the qualifications of an incentive stock option as described below.
An incentive stock option is a stock option that meets the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees and the aggregate fair market value of a share of common stock determined at the time of grant with respect to incentive stock options that are exercisable for the first time by a participant during any calendar year may not exceed $100,000. No incentive stock option may be granted to any person who, at the time of the grant, owns or is deemed to own stock possessing more than 10% of our total combined voting power or that of any of our affiliates unless (i) the option exercise price is at least 110% of the fair market value of the stock subject to the option on the date of grant and (ii) the term of the incentive stock option does not exceed five years from the date of grant.
 
162

Table of Contents
Unless otherwise determined by the plan administrator, each vested and outstanding option granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan will automatically be exercised on the last business day of the applicable option term, to the extent that, as of such date, (i) the exercise price of such option is less than the fair market value of a share, and (ii) the holder of such option remains actively in service.
Stock Appreciation Rights
A SAR entitles the holder to receive an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of a share of common stock on the exercise date and the exercise price of the SAR (which may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the grant date), multiplied by the number of shares of common stock subject to the SAR (as determined by the plan administrator). Unless otherwise determined by the plan administrator, each vested and outstanding SAR granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan will automatically be exercised on the last business day of the applicable SAR term, to the extent that, as of such date, (i) the exercise price of such SAR is less than the fair market value of a share, and (ii) the holder of such SAR remains actively in service.
Restricted Stock
A restricted stock award is an award of shares of common stock that vest in accordance with the terms and conditions established by the plan administrator. The plan administrator will determine in the award agreement whether the participant will be entitled to receive dividends on such shares of restricted stock.
Restricted Stock Units
A restricted stock unit is a right to receive shares or the cash equivalent of common stock at a specified date in the future, subject to forfeiture of such right. If the restricted stock unit has not been forfeited, then on the date specified in the restricted stock unit grant, Fathom must deliver to the holder of the restricted stock unit unrestricted shares of common stock (or, in the plan administrator’s sole discretion, in cash equal to the shares that would otherwise be delivered, or partly in cash and partly in shares).
Other Stock-Based Awards
We may grant or sell to any participant a right or other interest that may be denominated or payable in, valued in whole or in part by reference to, or otherwise based on or related to, shares of common stock, including unrestricted common stock under the 2021 Omnibus Plan or a dividend equivalent. A dividend equivalent is a right to receive payments, based on dividends with respect to shares of our common stock. To the extent that an award contains a right to receive dividends or dividend equivalents while the award remains unvested, the dividends and dividend equivalents will be accumulated and paid once and to the extent that the underlying award vests.
Other Cash-Based Awards
We may grant cash awards under the 2021 Omnibus Plan, including cash awards as a bonus or upon the attainment of certain performance goals.
Performance-Based Awards
We may grant an award conditioned on satisfaction of certain performance criteria. Such performance-based awards include performance-based restricted shares and restricted stock units. Any dividends or dividend equivalents payable or credited to a participate with respect to any unvested performance-based award will be subject to the same performance goals as the shares or units underlying the performance-based award.
 
163

Table of Contents
Performance Goals
If the plan administrator determines that an award under the 2021 Omnibus Plan will be earned subject to the achievement of performance goals, the plan administrator may select one or more performance criteria upon which to grant such award, which may include, but are not limited to, any one or more of the following: earnings before interest and taxes; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; net operating profit after tax; cash flow; revenue; net revenues; sales; days sales outstanding; income; net income; operating income; net operating income, operating margin; earnings; earnings per share; return on equity; return on investment; return on capital; return on assets; return on net assets; total stockholder return; economic profit; market share; appreciation in the fair market value, book value or other measure of value of a share of common stock; expense/cost control; working capital; customer satisfaction; employee retention or employee turnover; employee satisfaction or engagement; environmental, health, or other safety goals; individual performance; strategic objective milestones; any other criteria specified by the plan administrator in its sole discretion; or, as applicable, any combination of, or a specified increase or decrease in, any of the foregoing.
Equitable Adjustments
In the event of a merger, consolidation, reclassification, recapitalization,
spin-off,
spin-out,
repurchase or other reorganization or corporate transaction or event, extraordinary dividend, stock split or reverse stock split, combination or exchange of shares, or other change in corporate structure or payment of any other distribution, the maximum number and kind of shares of common stock reserved for issuance or with respect to which awards may be granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan will be adjusted to reflect such event, and the plan administrator will make such adjustments as it deems appropriate and equitable in the number, kind and exercise price of common stock covered by outstanding awards made under the 2021 Omnibus Plan, and in any other matters that relate to awards and that are affected by the changes in the shares referred to in this section.
Change in Control
In the event of any proposed change in control (as defined in the 2021 Omnibus Plan), the plan administrator will take any action as it deems appropriate and equitable to effectuate the purposes of the 2021 Omnibus Plan and to protect the participants who hold outstanding awards under the 2021 Omnibus Plan, which action may include, without limitation, the following: (i) the continuation of any award, if Fathom is the surviving corporation; (ii) the assumption of any award by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary; (iii) the substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary of equivalent awards for any award, provided, however, that any such substitution with respect to options and SARs shall occur in accordance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code; or (iv) settlement of any award for the change in control price (less, to the extent applicable, the per share exercise or grant price), or, if the per share exercise or grant price equals or exceeds the change in control price or if the plan administrator determines that the award cannot reasonably become vested pursuant to its terms, such award shall terminate and be canceled without consideration.
Amendment and Termination
The plan administrator may alter, amend, modify, or terminate the 2021 Omnibus Plan at any time, provided that the approval of our stockholders will be obtained for any amendment to the 2021 Omnibus Plan that requires stockholder approval under the rules of the stock exchange(s) on which our common stock is then listed or in accordance with other applicable law, including, but not limited to, an increase in the number of shares of our common stock reserved for issuance, a reduction in the exercise price of options or other entitlements, an extension of the maximum term of any award, or an amendment that grants the plan administrator additional powers to amend the 2021 Omnibus Plan. In addition, no modification of an award will, without the prior written consent of the participant, adversely alter or impair any rights or obligations under any award already granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan, unless the plan administrator expressly reserved the right to do so at the time of the award.

Table of Contents
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Effects
The following discussion of certain relevant United States federal income tax effects applicable to certain awards granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan is only a summary of certain of the United States federal income tax consequences as of the date hereof applicable to United States residents under the 2021 Omnibus Plan, and reference is made to the Code for a complete statement of all relevant federal tax provisions. No consideration has been given to the effects of foreign, state, local and other laws (tax or other) on the 2021 Omnibus Plan or on a participant, which laws will vary depending upon the particular jurisdiction or jurisdictions involved. In particular, participants who are stationed outside the United States may be subject to foreign taxes as a result of the 2021 Omnibus Plan.
Nonqualified Stock Options
An optionee subject to United States federal income tax will generally not recognize taxable income for United States federal income tax purposes upon the grant of a nonqualified stock option. Rather, at the time of exercise of the nonqualified stock option, the optionee will recognize ordinary income, subject to wage and employment tax withholding, and Fathom will be entitled to a deduction, in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price. If the shares acquired upon the exercise of a nonqualified stock option are later sold or exchanged, then the difference between the amount received upon such sale or exchange and the fair market value of such shares on the date of such exercise will generally be taxable as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss (if the shares are a capital asset of the optionee), depending upon the length of time such shares were held by the optionee.
Incentive Stock Options
An optionee subject to United States federal income tax will generally not recognize taxable income for United States federal income tax purposes upon the grant of an incentive stock option (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code) and Fathom will not be entitled to a deduction at that time. If the incentive stock option is exercised during employment or within 90 days following the termination thereof (or within one year following termination, in the case of a termination of employment due to death or disability, as such terms are defined in the 2021 Omnibus Plan), the optionee will not recognize any income and Fathom will not be entitled to a deduction. The excess of the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date over the exercise price, however, is includible in computing the optionee’s alternative minimum taxable income. Generally, if an optionee disposes of shares acquired by exercising an incentive stock option either within two years after the date of grant or one year after the date of exercise, the optionee will recognize ordinary income, and Fathom will be entitled to a deduction, in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise (or the sale price, if lower) over the exercise price. The balance of any gain or loss will generally be treated as a capital gain or loss to the optionee. If the shares are disposed of after the
two-year
and
one-year
periods described above, Fathom will not be entitled to any deduction, and the entire gain or loss for the optionee will be treated as a capital gain or loss.
SARs
A participant subject to United States federal income tax who is granted a SAR will not recognize ordinary income for United States federal income tax purposes upon receipt of the SAR. At the time of exercise, however, the participant will recognize ordinary income, subject to wage and employment tax withholding, equal to the value of any cash received and the fair market value on the date of exercise of any shares received. Fathom will not be entitled to a deduction upon the grant of a SAR, but generally will be entitled to a deduction for the amount of income the participant recognizes upon the participant’s exercise of the SAR. The participant’s tax basis in any shares received will be the fair market value on the date of exercise and, if the shares are later sold or exchanged, then the difference between the amount received upon such sale or exchange and the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise will generally be taxable as long-term or short-term capital gain or loss (if the stock is a capital asset of the participant) depending upon the length of time such shares were held by the participant.

Restricted Stock
A participant subject to United States federal income tax generally will not be taxed upon the grant of a restricted stock award, but rather will recognize ordinary income for United States federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time the restricted stock is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of the Code). Fathom generally will be entitled to a deduction at the time when, and in the amount that, the participant recognizes ordinary income on account of the lapse of the restrictions. A participant’s tax basis in the shares will equal the fair market value of those shares at the time the restrictions lapse, and the participant’s holding period for capital gains purposes will begin at that time. Any cash dividends paid on the shares before the restrictions lapse will be taxable to the participant as additional compensation (and not as dividend income). Under Section 83(b) of the Code, a participant may elect to recognize ordinary income at the time the restricted shares are awarded in an amount equal to their fair market value at that time, notwithstanding the fact that such shares are subject to restrictions and a substantial risk of forfeiture. If such an election is made, no additional taxable income will be recognized by such participant at the time the restrictions lapse, the participant will have a tax basis in the restricted shares equal to their fair market value on the date of their award, and the participant’s holding period for capital gains purposes will begin at that time. Fathom generally will be entitled to a tax deduction at the time when, and to the extent that, ordinary income is recognized by such participant.
Restricted Stock Units
A participant subject to United States federal income tax who is granted a restricted stock unit will not recognize ordinary income for United States federal income tax purposes upon the receipt of the restricted stock unit, but rather will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time the award is settled into shares, subject to wage and employment tax withholding, and Fathom will have a corresponding deduction at that time.
Other Stock-Based and Other Cash-Based Awards
In the case of other stock-based and other cash-based awards, depending on the form of the award, a participant subject to United States federal income tax will not be taxed upon the grant of such an award, but, rather, will recognize ordinary income for United States federal income tax purposes when such an award vests or otherwise is free of restrictions. In any event, Fathom will be entitled to a deduction at the time when, and in the amount that, a participant recognizes ordinary income.
Tax Effects for Fathom
In addition to the tax impact to Fathom described above, Fathom’s deduction may also be limited by Section 280G or Section 162(m) of the Code. In general, Section 162(m) of the Code denies a publicly held corporation a deduction for United States federal income tax purposes for compensation in excess of $1,000,000 per year per covered employee.
New Plan Benefits
As of the date hereof, no awards have been granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan. As explained in more detail below, the aggregate number of shares and aggregate total dollar value of potential future awards under the 2021 Omnibus Plan that may be made to any of our named executive officers or to our executive officers,
non-executive
officer employees or
non-executive
directors as a group are not yet determinable.
If the Business Combination and 2021 Omnibus Plan are approved, as previously disclosed, all vested time-based phantom unit awards under the Combined Phantom Plan outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination and held by individuals who are employed by or performing services

for Fathom OpCo or its subsidiaries or affiliates as of the Closing, will be forfeited and cancelled and such holders shall receive grants of restricted shares of Fathom Class A Common Stock under the 2021 Omnibus Plan. The restricted shares shall not vest until the date the Form
S-8
is filed registering the 2021 Omnibus Plan shares; provided, that, the vested, unrestricted shares received in settlement of the Restricted Shares (as provided in the 2021 Omnibus Plan) shall be subject to such other transfer restrictions as set forth in the award agreements related thereto and described in more detail above under
Post-Business Combination Company Executive Compensation
. The exact number of restricted shares that will be granted to holders of vested time-based phantom unit awards is not currently known. Approximately 720 vested phantom unit awards under the Combined Phantom Plan were outstanding as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement.
In addition, if the Business Combination and 2021 Omnibus Plan are approved, as previously disclosed, all unvested time-based phantom unit awards and performance-based phantom unit awards held by individuals who are employed by or performing services for Fathom OpCo or its subsidiaries or affiliates as of the Closing shall be forfeited and cancelled and such holders shall receive grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with respect to Fathom Class A Common Stock under the 2021 Omnibus Plan and such RSUs shall be subject to time-based vesting or performance-based vesting and such other transfer restrictions as set forth in the 2021 Omnibus Plan and the award agreements related thereto and described in more detail above under
Post-Business Combination Company Executive Compensation
. The exact number of RSUs that will be granted to holders of unvested time-based and performance-based phantom unit awards is not currently known. Approximately 12,941 unvested phantom unit awards under the Combined Phantom Plan were outstanding as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement.
The dollar value of any of potential restricted share and RSU award granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan is not yet determinable. The exact number of vested phantom units to restricted shares and of unvested phantom units to RSUs, as previously disclosed above under the description of the Fathom OpCo Long-Term Equity Incentives, will equal 6.83% of the total value receivable by the Fathom OpCo common unit holders in connection with the Business Combination. Since the conversion ratio for phantom units is based on the total value payable to the common unit holders of Fathom OpCo, the amount receivable by each phantom unit holder at the Closing is not yet determinable. Such value is determined by taking the total merger consideration and subtracting the capital contributions and accrued interest owed to the Fathom OpCo preferred unit holders. Because interest accrues daily, the exact amount received by the Fathom OpCo common unit holders will not be determinable until the date of Closing is determinable. At such time, 6.83% of the value received by Fathom OpCo common unit holders will be divided by $10.00 (the price per share of one share of Fathom Class A common stock, determined as of the Closing) resulting in the total share pool that will be used to determine the number of shares each phantom unit holder will receive under the 2021 Omnibus Plan in the form of restricted shares or RSUs, respectively. Additionally, the awards granted under the 2021 Omnibus Plan in respect of phantom units will depend on a number of factors, including the fair market value of Fathom Class A Common Stock on future dates, the service milestones achieved by participants prior to the Closing, and the extent to which any applicable performance goals necessary for vesting or payment are achieved.
Registration with the SEC
If the 2021 Omnibus Plan is approved by our stockholders and becomes effective, Fathom is expected to file a registration statement on Form
S-8
registering the shares reserved for issuance under the 2021 Omnibus Plan as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming eligible to use such form.
Equity Compensation Plan Information
Altimar II did not maintain, or have any securities authorized for issuance under, any equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2020.

PROPOSAL NO. 8 — THE ESPP PROPOSAL
Overview
The Board expects to approve the Fathom 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) and adopt the ESPP, effective as of the Closing, subject to the approval of our shareholders. We are seeking shareholder approval of the ESPP (i) to qualify the ESPP as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code and the related regulations and (ii) in order to comply with the NYSE listing rules.
The purpose of the ESPP is to encourage employee stock ownership, thus aligning employee interests with those of our stockholders, and to enhance the ability of Fathom to attract, motivate and retain qualified employees. We believe that the ESPP will offer a convenient means for our employees who might not otherwise own our common stock to purchase and hold shares.
This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the ESPP, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/prospectus as
Annex I.
We urge our shareholders to read carefully the entire ESPP before voting on this proposal. If approved by our shareholders, the ESPP will become effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination.
Summary of Material Terms of the ESPP
The following is a summary of the material features of the ESPP. The summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the ESPP attached as
Annex I
to this proxy statement/ prospectus.
Shares Subject to the ESPP
The 2021 ESPP will cover an aggregate of the total number of shares of Fathom Class A common stock that will be reserved and that may be issued under the ESPP will automatically increase on the first trading day of each calendar year, beginning with calendar year 2023, by a number of shares equal to 1% of the total number of shares of Fathom Class A common stock outstanding on the last day of the prior calendar year. The plan administrator may act prior to January 1 of a given year to provide that there will be no increase in the share reserve for that year, or that the increase in the share reserve will be smaller than as provided in the ESPP.
To prevent dilution or enlargement of the rights of participants under the ESPP, appropriate adjustments will be made if any change is made to our outstanding common stock by reason of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, dividend or distribution, stock split, reverse stock split,
spin-off
or similar transaction or other change in corporate structure affecting our common stock or its value.
ESPP Participants
Generally, all of our employees will be eligible to participate if they are customarily employed by us, or any participating subsidiary, for at least 20 hours per week and more than five months in any calendar year. However, the plan administrator has certain discretion to vary the eligibility requirements. Specifically, the plan administrator may, prior to an enrollment date for all options granted on such enrollment date in an offering, determine that any of the following is or is not eligible to participate in such offering period: an employee who (i) has not completed at least two years of service (or a lesser period of time determined by the plan administrator) since his or her last hire date, (ii) customarily works not more than 20 hours per week (or a lesser period of time determined by the plan administrator), (iii) customarily works not more than five months per calendar year (or a lesser period of time determined by the plan administrator), (iv) is a highly compensated employee within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code or (v) is a highly compensated employee within the meaning of Section 414(q) of the Code with compensation above a certain level or is an officer or subject to disclosure requirements under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, it is expected that approximately 622 employees, 0
non-employee
directors and 0 consultants will be eligible to participate in the ESPP.

Table of Contents
However, an employee may not be granted rights to purchase shares of Fathom Class A common stock under the ESPP if such employee immediately after the grant would own capital stock possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of our capital stock; or holds rights to purchase shares of our common stock under all of our employee stock purchase plans that accrue at a rate that exceeds $25,000 worth of shares of our common stock for each calendar year.
Administration
The 2021 ESPP will be administered by the Board or any committee designated by the Board. The plan administrator has broad power to make determinations under the ESPP, to interpret the terms of the ESPP and to establish rules and regulations for its administration. The plan administrator determines whether offers will be made and the beginning and ending dates of the related purchase periods. The plan administrator will have full and exclusive discretionary authority to construe, interpret and apply the terms of the ESPP, delegate ministerial duties to any of our employees, supply omissions or correct defects in the ESPP, designate separate offerings under the ESPP, designate our subsidiaries and affiliates as participating in the ESPP, determine eligibility, adjudicate all disputed claims filed under the ESPP and establish procedures that it deems necessary for the administration of the ESPP. The plan administrator’s findings, decisions and determinations are final and binding on all participants to the full extent permitted by law.
Purchases Under ESPP
The plan administrator will determine the length of each offering period. An offering period may be more than 27 months. We anticipate initiating the ESPP with
12-month
offering periods, with each offering period having two
6-month
purchase periods. The plan administrator determines the purchase price at which shares may be purchased by participants, which will not be less than the lesser of 85% of the fair market value per share of the Fathom Class A common stock on the first day of the purchase period or 85% of the fair market value per share on the last day of the purchase period. The plan administrator will determine whether the participants will be subject to any minimum holding period for the shares of common stock purchased under the ESPP. The plan administrator currently intends to require a minimum holding period of six months from the end of each applicable purchase period.
Prior to the first day of each offering period, each participant will make an election to participate during the offering period. At the end of each purchase period, the participant will receive a number of shares, determined on the last day of the purchase period, equal to the payroll deductions credited during the purchase period divided by the applicable purchase price, except that no fractional shares may be purchased under the ESPP. We intend to initially set the purchase price at a 15% discount from the lesser of the closing price on the first day of the offering period and the closing price on the purchase date. A participant may not purchase shares with a fair market value greater than $25,000 under the ESPP in any calendar year. The plan administrator may, however, modify at its discretion the discount, purchase period, purchase date and other aspects of the ESPP design within the ESPP parameters from time to time.
Participants may purchase shares only by submitting an election form during the election period established by the plan administrator prior to the beginning of each offering period, stating the participant’s election to have
after-tax
payroll deductions made for the purpose of participating in the ESPP. After initial enrollment in the ESPP, payroll deductions will continue from offering period to offering period unless the participant makes another election to terminate his or her payroll deductions, terminates his or her employment with Fathom or becomes ineligible to participate in the ESPP. The amounts deducted will be credited to the participant’s account under the ESPP until the purchase date, but we will not pay any interest on the deducted amounts.
Participants may end their participation at any time during an offering period in accordance with any applicable insider trading policies by submitting to Fathom’s stock administration office a written notice of withdrawal in the form determined by the plan administrator or by following an electronic or other withdrawal

procedure determined by the plan administrator. In such case, participants will be paid their accrued contributions that have not yet been used to purchase shares of our common stock. Additionally, participation ends automatically upon termination of employment with us. If sufficient shares are not available in any purchase period under the ESPP, the available shares will be allocated pro rata among the participants in that purchase period in a uniform manner as determined by the plan administrator for that purchase period. Any amounts not applied to the purchase of common stock will be refunded to the participants after the end of the purchase period without interest.
Restriction on Transfer
The right to acquire shares under the ESPP is not transferable.
Change in Control
If there is a change in control of Fathom, each right to purchase shares under the ESPP will be assumed or an equivalent right to purchase shares will be substituted by the successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such corporation. If the successor corporation fails to assume or substitute for the ESPP purchase rights, the plan administrator will shorten the offering period covered by such ESPP purchase right by setting a new exercise date on which such offering period will end. The new exercise date will occur before the change in control. The plan administrator will notify each participant in writing or electronically prior to the new exercise date, that the exercise date for the participant’s purchase rights has been changed to the new exercise date and the participant’s purchase rights will be exercised automatically on the new exercise date, unless prior to such date the participant has withdrawn from the offering period.
Amendment and Termination of the ESPP
The plan administrator has the authority to amend, suspend or terminate the ESPP unless the amendment requires stockholder approval pursuant to Section 423 of the Code, other applicable laws or stock exchange rules. No amendment or termination will adversely affect any right to purchase shares that has been granted under the ESPP without the consent of the participant. The 2021 ESPP shall continue in effect for ten (10) years after the date of stockholder approval.
Application of Funds
We may use the proceeds from the sale of our common stock pursuant to the ESPP for any corporate purpose.
Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following discussion of certain relevant United States federal income tax consequences applicable to the purchase of shares under the ESPP is only a summary of certain of the United States federal income tax consequences applicable to United States residents under the ESPP as of the date hereof, and reference is made to the Code for a complete statement of all relevant federal tax provisions. No consideration has been given to the effects of foreign, state, local and other laws (tax or other) on the ESPP or on a participant, which laws will vary depending upon the particular jurisdiction or jurisdictions involved. In particular, participants who are stationed outside the United States may be subject to foreign taxes as a result of the ESPP.
No taxable income will be recognized by a participant, and no deductions will be allowable to Fathom, upon either the grant or the exercise of rights to purchase shares. A participant only will recognize income when the shares acquired under the ESPP are sold or otherwise disposed of.
The tax due upon sale or other disposition of the acquired shares depends on the length of time that the participant holds the shares.
 
171

Table of Contents
If the participant sells or otherwise disposes of the purchased shares within two years after the start date of the offering period pursuant to which the shares were acquired or within one year after the actual purchase date of those shares, the participant generally will recognize ordinary income in the year of sale or disposition equal to the amount by which the fair market value of the shares on the purchase date exceeded the purchase price paid for those shares. Fathom will be entitled to a corresponding income tax deduction for the amount of income recognized for the taxable year in which such disposition occurs. The amount of this ordinary income will be added to the participant’s basis in the shares, and any additional gain or loss recognized upon the sale or disposition will be a capital gain or loss. If the shares have been held for more than one year since the date of purchase, the gain or loss will be long-term capital gain.
If the participant sells or disposes of the purchased shares more than two years after the start date of the offering period pursuant to which the shares were acquired and more than one year after the actual purchase date of those shares, then the participant generally will recognize ordinary income in the year of sale or disposition equal to the lesser of (i) the amount by which the fair market value of the shares on the sale or disposition date exceeded the purchase price paid for those shares, or (ii) 15% of the fair market value of the shares on the start date of that offering period. Any additional gain upon the disposition will be taxed as a long-term capital gain. Alternatively, if the fair market value of the shares on the date of the sale or disposition is less than the purchase price, there will be no ordinary income and any loss recognized will be a long-term capital loss. Fathom will not be entitled to an income tax deduction with respect to such disposition.
The tax consequences to a participant may vary depending upon the participant’s individual situation. In addition, various state laws may provide for tax consequences that vary significantly from those described above.
New Plan Benefits
Participation in the ESPP is entirely within the discretion of the eligible employees. Because we cannot presently determine the participation levels by employee, the rate of contributions by employees and the eventual purchase price under the ESPP, it is not possible to determine the value of benefits which may be obtained by executive officers and other employees under the ESPP.
Non-employee
directors are not eligible to participate in the ESPP.
Resolution to be Voted Upon
The full text of the resolution to be proposed is as follows:
“RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, that the Fathom 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (annexed to the proxy statement/prospectus as
Annex I
) be approved and adopted in all respects.”
Vote Required for Approval
If the Business Combination Proposal is not approved, the ESPP Proposal will not be presented at the Special Meeting. The approval of this ESPP Proposal requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the majority of the holders of the ordinary shares who, being present in person (or represented by proxy) and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for purposes of establishing quorum, will not count as a vote cast at the Special Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes, while considered present for purposes of establishing quorum, will not count as a vote cast at the Special Meeting.
Failure to submit a proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, an abstention from voting or a broker

The Business Combination is conditioned upon the approval of the ESPP Proposal, subject to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
The following summary is a discussion of U.S. federal income tax considerations of the Domestication, an exercise of Redemption Rights and the Business Combination generally applicable to holders of Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants and Fathom common stock or warrants, and with respect to
non-U.S.
holders (as defined below) the ownership and disposition of Fathom common stock and warrants after the Domestication and Business Combination. This section applies only to holders that hold their Altimar II ordinary shares and warrants or Fathom common stock and warrants as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes (generally, property held for investment) and does not address the Sponsor or their affiliates, representatives, employees or other stakeholders.
This section is general in nature and does not discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that might be relevant to a particular holder in light of such holder’s circumstances or status, nor does it address tax considerations applicable to a holder subject to special rules, including:
 
   
financial institutions;
 
   
governments or agencies or instrumentalities thereof;
 
   
insurance companies;
 
   
dealers or traders subject to a
mark-to-market
method of tax accounting with respect to Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants or Fathom common stock or warrants;
 
   
persons holding Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants or Fathom common stock or warrants as part of a “straddle,” hedge, integrated transaction or similar transaction, or persons deemed to sell the Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants or Fathom common stock or warrants under constructive sale provisions of the Code;
 
   
U.S. holders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;
 
   
partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes or investors in such entities;
 
   
holders who are controlled foreign corporations or passive foreign investment companies;
 
   
regulated investment companies;
 
   
real estate investment trusts;
 
   
persons who acquired Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants or Fathom common stock or warrants through the exercise or cancellation of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation for their services;
 
   
U.S. holders (as defined below) owning (actually or constructively) 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote of, or 10% or more of the total value of all classes of shares of, Altimar II or Fathom;
 
   
U.S. holders (as defined below) that hold their Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants and Fathom common stock or warrants through a
non-U.S.
broker or other
non-U.S.
intermediary;
 
   
persons who are, or may become, subject to the expatriation provisions of the Code;
 
   
persons that are subject to “applicable financial statement rules” under Section 451(b); or
 
   
tax-exempt
entities.
This discussion is based on the Code, and administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed Treasury Regulations all as of the date hereof, changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this prospectus may affect the tax consequences described herein (possibly with retroactive effect).
 
175

Table of Contents
This discussion does not take into account proposed changes in such tax laws and does not address any aspect of state, local or
non-U.S.
taxation, or any U.S. federal taxes other than income taxes (such as estate or gift tax consequences, the alternative minimum tax or the Medicare tax on investment income). Each of the foregoing is subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. You should consult your tax advisors with respect to the application of U.S. federal tax laws to your particular situation, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or
non-U.S.
jurisdiction.
We have not and do not intend to seek any rulings from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) regarding the Domestication, an exercise of Redemption Rights, the Business Combination, or any other matters discussed herein. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not take positions concerning the tax consequences of the transactions that are inconsistent with the considerations discussed below or that any such positions would not be sustained by a court.
Because Altimar II units (each unit consisting of one Altimar II Class A ordinary share and one Altimar II warrant) can be separated into their component parts at the option of the holder, a beneficial owner of an Altimar II public unit should be treated as the owner of the underlying Altimar II securities for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The discussion below with respect to Altimar II securities should also apply to holders of Altimar II public units (as the deemed owner of the underlying Altimar II securities). References in this discussion to “ordinary shares” refers to Altimar II Class A ordinary shares and references in this discussion to “common stock” refers to Fathom common stock and references to “warrants” refer to Altimar II warrants or Fathom warrants, as the context may require.
If a partnership (or any entity or arrangement so characterized for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holds Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants or Fathom common stock or warrants, the tax treatment of such partnership and a person treated as a partner of such partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships holding any Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants or Fathom common stock or warrants and persons that are treated as partners of such partnerships should consult their tax advisors as to the particular U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Domestication, an exercise of Redemption Rights and the Business Combination to them.
THE FOLLOWING IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. ALL SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DOMESTICATION, AN EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS AND THE BUSINESS COMBINATION, INCLUDING THE EFFECTS OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL AND
NON-U.S.
TAX LAWS.
U.S. Holders
This section applies to you if you are a “U.S. holder.” A U.S. holder is a beneficial owner of Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants or Fathom common stock or warrants who or that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:
 
   
an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes;
 
   
a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation) that is created or organized (or treated as created or organized) under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
 
   
an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source; or
 
   
a trust, if (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust and one or more “United States persons” (within the meaning of the Code) have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (ii) the trust has validly elected to be treated as a United States person for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Consequences of the Domestication to U.S. Holders—F Reorganization
The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Domestication will depend primarily upon whether the Domestication qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code.
Under Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code, a reorganization (an “F Reorganization”) is a “mere change in identity, form or place of organization of one corporation, however effected.” Pursuant to the Domestication, Altimar II will change its jurisdiction of incorporation from the Cayman Islands to Delaware, and, after the Domestication will change its name to Fathom Digital Manufacturing Corporation.
Based on, and subject to, the assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth in the opinion included as Exhibit 8.1 hereto, it is the opinion of Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP that the Domestication should qualify as an F Reorganization for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, due to the absence of direct guidance on the application of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code to a statutory conversion of a corporation holding only investment-type assets such as Altimar II, this result is not entirely clear. Accordingly, due to the absence of such guidance, it is not possible to predict whether the IRS or a court considering the issue would take a contrary position. The remainder of this discussion assumes the Domestication so qualifies. Assuming the Domestication so qualifies, U.S. holders generally will not recognize taxable gain or loss on the Domestication for U.S. federal income tax purposes, except as provided below under the caption headings “
 Effect of Section
 367 to U.S. Holders
” and “
 PFIC Considerations
”, and the Domestication will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as if Altimar II (i) transferred all of its assets and liabilities to Fathom in exchange for all of the outstanding common stock and warrants of Fathom; and (ii) then distributed the common stock and warrants of Fathom to the shareholders and warrant holders of Altimar II in liquidation of Altimar II. The taxable year of Altimar II will be deemed to end on the date of the Domestication.
Assuming the Domestication qualifies as an F Reorganization: (i) the tax basis of a share of Fathom common stock or a Fathom warrant received by a U.S. holder in the Domestication will equal the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Altimar II ordinary share or warrant, as the case may be, surrendered in exchange therefor, increased by any amount included in the income of such U.S. holder as a result of Section 367 of the Code (as discussed below) and (ii) the holding period for a share of Fathom common stock or a Fathom warrant received by a U.S. holder will include such U.S. holder’s holding period for the Altimar II ordinary share or warrant surrendered in exchange therefor.
If the Domestication fails to qualify as an F Reorganization, a U.S. holder generally would recognize gain or loss with respect to its Altimar II ordinary shares and warrants in an amount equal to the difference between the fair market value of Fathom common stock and warrants received in the Domestication and the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Altimar II ordinary shares and warrants surrendered in the Domestication. In such event, such U.S. holder’s basis in Fathom common stock and warrants would be equal to their fair market value on the date of the Domestication, and such U.S. holder’s holding period for Fathom common stock and warrants would begin on the day following the date of the Domestication. Shareholders who hold different blocks of Altimar II ordinary shares and warrants (generally, ordinary shares and warrants of Altimar II purchased or acquired on different dates or at different prices) should consult their tax advisors to determine how the above rules apply to them.
Because the Domestication will occur prior to the redemption of U.S. holders that exercise Redemption Rights, U.S. holders exercising such Redemption Rights will be subject to the potential tax consequences of the Domestication. All U.S. holders considering exercising Redemption Rights are urged to consult with their tax advisors with respect to the potential tax consequences of the Domestication and an exercise of Redemption Rights to them.
ALL U.S. HOLDERS CONSIDERING EXERCISING REDEMPTION RIGHTS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS WITH RESPECT TO THE POTENTIAL TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DOMESTICATION AND AN EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS TO THEM.

Effect of Section 367 to U.S. Holders
Section 367 of the Code applies to certain
non-recognition
transactions involving foreign corporations, including a domestication of a foreign corporation in an F Reorganization. Section 367 of the Code imposes income tax on certain U.S. persons in connection with transactions that would otherwise be
tax-free.
Section 367(b) of the Code generally will apply to U.S. holders that exchange Altimar II ordinary shares for Fathom common stock as part of the Domestication. Because the Domestication will occur immediately prior to the redemption of holders that exercise Redemption Rights, U.S. holders exercising Redemption Rights will be subject to the potential tax consequences of Section 367 of the Code as a result of the Domestication.
U.S. Holders That Own Altimar II Ordinary Shares with a Fair Market Value of $50,000 or More But Less Than 10 Percent of Altimar II
A U.S. holder who, at the time of the Domestication, beneficially owns (directly, indirectly, or constructively, including as a result of applicable attribution rules that would take into account a holder’s ownership of Altimar II warrants) Altimar II ordinary shares with a fair market value of $50,000 or more but less than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Altimar II ordinary shares entitled to vote and less than 10% of the total value of all classes of Altimar II ordinary shares will generally recognize gain (but not loss) with respect to the Fathom common stock received in the Domestication unless such holder elects to recognize the “all earnings and profits” amount attributable to such holder as described below. Complex attribution rules apply in determining whether a U.S. holder owns 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our ordinary shares entitled to vote or owns 10% or more of the total value of all classes of our ordinary shares. All U.S. holders are urged to consult their tax advisors with respect to those attribution rules.
Unless a U.S. holder makes the “all earnings and profits” election as described below, such holder generally must recognize gain (but not loss) with respect to its Altimar II ordinary shares exchanged for Fathom common stock pursuant to the Domestication. Any such gain would be equal to the excess of the fair market value of such Fathom common stock received over the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Altimar II ordinary shares deemed to be surrendered in exchange therefor. Subject to the PFIC rules discussed below, such gain would be capital gain, and should be long-term capital gain if the U.S. holder held the Altimar II ordinary shares for longer than one year.
In lieu of recognizing any gain as described in the preceding paragraph, a U.S. holder may elect to include in income the “all earnings and profits amount” attributable to its Altimar II ordinary shares. There are, however, strict conditions for making this election. This election must comply with applicable Treasury Regulations and generally must include, among other things:
 
   
a statement that the Domestication is a Section 367(b) exchange;
 
   
a complete description of the Domestication;
 
   
a description of any stock, securities or other consideration transferred or received in the Domestication;
 
   
a statement describing the amounts required to be taken into account for U.S. federal income tax purposes as income or as an adjustment to basis, earnings and profits or other tax attributes;
 
   
a statement that the U.S. holder is making the election that includes (A) a copy of the information that the U.S. holder received from Altimar II (or Fathom) establishing and substantiating the U.S. holder’s “all earnings and profits amount” with respect to the U.S. holder’s Altimar II ordinary shares, and (B) a representation that the U.S. holder has notified Altimar II (or Fathom) that the U.S. holder is making the election; and
 
   
certain other information required to be furnished with the U.S. holder’s tax return or otherwise furnished pursuant to the Code or the Treasury Regulations.
 
178

Table of Contents
The election must be attached by the U.S. holder to its timely filed U.S. federal income tax return for the year of the Domestication, and the U.S. holder must send notice of making the election to Fathom no later than the date such tax return is filed. In connection with this election, Altimar II intends to provide each U.S. holder eligible to make such an election with information regarding Altimar II’s earnings and profits upon request. Altimar II does not expect that Altimar II’s cumulative earnings and profits will be material at the time of domestication.
U.S. HOLDERS ARE STRONGLY URGED TO CONSULT A TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE CONSEQUENCES OF MAKING THE ELECTION DESCRIBED ABOVE AND THE APPROPRIATE FILING REQUIREMENTS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ELECTION.
U.S. Holders that Own Altimar II Ordinary Shares with a Fair Market Value of Less Than $50,000
A U.S. holder who, at the time of the Domestication, owns (or is considered to own) Altimar II ordinary shares with a fair market value of less than $50,000 should not be required to recognize any gain or loss under Section 367(b) of the Code in connection with the Domestication, and generally should not be required to include any part of the “all earnings and profits amount” in income.
ALL U.S. HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DOMESTICATION TO THEM.
PFIC Considerations
In addition to Section 367(b) of the Code, the Domestication may be a taxable event to U.S. holders to the extent that Section 1291(f) of the Code applies, if Altimar II is or ever was a PFIC under Section 1297 of the Code.
General
. A foreign corporation generally will be a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes with respect to a taxable year of the foreign corporation if:
 
   
at least 75% of its gross income in such taxable year, including its pro rata share of the gross income of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, is passive income;
or
 
   
at least 50% of its assets in such taxable year, ordinarily determined based on fair market value and averaged quarterly over the year, including its pro rata share of the assets of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, are held for the production of, or produce, passive income.
Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived from the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of passive assets.
Pursuant to a start-up exception, a corporation will not be a PFIC for the first taxable year the corporation has gross income (the “start-up year”), if (i) no predecessor of the corporation was a PFIC; (ii) the corporation satisfies the IRS that it will not be a PFIC for either of the first two taxable years following the start-up year; and (iii) the corporation is not in fact a PFIC for either of those two years. Altimar II believes, although subject to uncertainty, that Altimar II’s 2021 taxable year may be the start-up year and that Altimar II may not be treated as a PFIC for 2021. The application of the start-up exception will depend, in part, on whether the Domestication is consummated in 2021. In addition, the application of the start-up exception to the present transaction involves the application of complicated rules with respect to which there is no clear authority. Accordingly, there can be no assurance with respect to Altimar II’s status as a PFIC for 2021. All holders are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning the application of the PFIC rules to Altimar II under such holder’s particular circumstances, including the potential to make a “qualified electing fund” election or a protective “qualified electing fund” election.

Consequences if a PFIC
. If Altimar II is determined to be a PFIC for any taxable year (or portion thereof) that is included in the holding period of a U.S. holder of Altimar II’s ordinary shares or warrants and, in the case of ordinary shares, the U.S. holder did not make a timely qualified electing fund (“QEF”) election for Altimar II’s first taxable year as a PFIC in which the U.S. holder held (or was deemed to hold) such ordinary shares, did not make a QEF election along with a “purging election,” or did not make a timely
mark-to-market
election as discussed below, then as described below, such holder generally will be subject to special rules with respect to: (i) any gain recognized by the U.S. holder on the sale or other disposition of its Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants; and (ii) any “excess distribution” made to the U.S. holder (generally, any distributions to such U.S. holder during a taxable year of the U.S. holder that are greater than 125% of the average annual distributions received by such U.S. holder in respect of the ordinary shares during the three preceding taxable years of such U.S. holder or, if shorter, such U.S. holder’s holding period for the Altimar II ordinary shares).
Under these rules:
 
   
the U.S. holder’s gain or excess distribution will be allocated ratably over the U.S. holder’s holding period for the Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants;
 
   
the amount of gain allocated to the U.S. holder’s taxable year in which the U.S. holder recognized the gain or received the excess distribution, or to the period in the U.S. holder’s holding period before the first day of the first taxable year in which Altimar II is a PFIC, will be taxed as ordinary income;
 
   
the amount of gain allocated to other taxable years (or portions thereof) of the U.S. holder and included in its holding period will be taxed at the highest tax rate in effect for that year and applicable to the U.S. holder; and
 
   
the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed in respect of the tax attributable to each such other taxable year of the U.S. holder.
QEF Election
. In general, if Altimar II is determined to be a PFIC, a U.S. holder may avoid the PFIC tax consequences described above in respect to its Altimar II ordinary shares by making a timely QEF election to include in income its pro rata share of Altimar II’s net capital gains (as long-term capital gain) and other earnings and profits (as ordinary income), on a current basis, in each case whether or not distributed, in each taxable year of the U.S. holder in which or with which Altimar II’s taxable year ends. The QEF election is made on a
shareholder-by-shareholder
basis and, once made, can be revoked only with the consent of the IRS. A U.S. holder generally makes a QEF election by attaching a completed IRS Form 8621 (Return by a Shareholder of a Passive Foreign Investment Company or Qualified Electing Fund), including the information provided in a “PFIC Annual Information Statement,” to a timely filed U.S. federal income tax return for the tax year to which the election relates. Retroactive QEF elections generally may be made only by filing a protective statement with such return and if certain other conditions are met or with the consent of the IRS. U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability and tax consequences of a retroactive QEF election under their particular circumstances. However, in order to comply with the requirements of a QEF election, a U.S. holder must receive a PFIC annual information statement from Altimar II. Upon written request, Altimar II will endeavor to provide to a U.S. holder such information as the IRS may require, including a PFIC annual information statement, in order to enable the U.S. holder to make and maintain a QEF election, but there can be no assurance that we will timely provide such required information.
A U.S. holder may not make a QEF election with respect to its Altimar II warrants. As a result, if a U.S. holder of Altimar II warrants sells or otherwise disposes of such warrants, any gain recognized will be subject to the special tax and interest charge rules treating the gain as an excess distribution, as described above, if Altimar II was a PFIC at any time during the period the U.S. holder held the Altimar II warrants.
Mark-to-Market
Election
. Alternatively, if a U.S. holder, at the close of its taxable year, owns shares in a PFIC that are treated as marketable stock, the U.S. holder may make a
mark-to-market
election with respect to such shares for such taxable year. If the U.S. holder makes a valid
mark-to-market
election for the first taxable
 
180

Table of Contents
year of the U.S. holder in which the U.S. holder holds (or is deemed to hold) Altimar II ordinary shares and for which Altimar II is determined to be a PFIC, such holder generally will not be subject to the PFIC rules described above in respect of its ordinary shares. Instead, in general, the U.S. holder will include as ordinary income each year the excess, if any, of the fair market value of its ordinary shares at the end of its taxable year over the adjusted basis in its ordinary shares. The U.S. holder also will be allowed to take an ordinary loss in respect of the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of its ordinary shares over the fair market value of its ordinary shares at the end of its taxable year (but only to the extent of the net amount of previously included income as a result of the
mark-to-market
election). The U.S. holder’s basis in its Altimar II ordinary shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts, and any further gain recognized on a sale or other taxable disposition of the Altimar II ordinary shares will be treated as ordinary income. Currently, a
mark-to-market
election may not be made with respect to warrants.
The
mark-to-market
election is available only for stock that is regularly traded on a national securities exchange that is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the New York Stock Exchange (on which Altimar II ordinary shares have been listed), or on an exchange or market that the IRS determines has rules sufficient to ensure that the market price represents a legitimate and sound fair market value. U.S. holders are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding the availability and tax consequences of a
mark-to-market
election in respect to our ordinary shares under their particular circumstances.
Effect of PFIC Rules on the Domestication
. Even if the Domestication qualifies as an F Reorganization, Section 1291(f) of the Code requires that, to the extent provided in Treasury Regulations, a U.S. person that disposes of stock of a PFIC (including rights to acquire stock of a PFIC) must recognize gain notwithstanding any other provision of the Code. No final Treasury Regulations are currently in effect under Section 1291(f) of the Code. Proposed Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f), or the “Proposed Regulations”, were promulgated in 1992, with a retroactive effective date once they become finalized. If finalized in their current form, the Proposed Regulations may require taxable gain recognition by a U.S. holder subject to the PFIC rules with respect to its exchange of Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants for Fathom common stock or warrants in the Domestication if Altimar II were classified as a PFIC at any time during such U.S. holder’s holding period in Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants. Therefore, U.S. holders of Altimar II ordinary shares that have not made a timely QEF election or a
mark-to-market
election (as described above) and U.S. holders of Altimar II warrants may, pursuant to the Proposed Regulations, be subject to taxation on the Domestication to the extent their shares and/or warrants have a fair market value in excess of their tax basis. Any such gain would generally be treated as an “excess distribution” made in the year of the Domestication and subject to the special tax and interest charge rules discussed above.
It is difficult to predict whether, in what form and with what effective date, final Treasury Regulations under Section 1291(f) of the Code will be adopted. The rules dealing with PFICs and with the QEF election and purging election (or a
mark-to-market
election) are very complex and are affected by various factors in addition to those described above. Accordingly, a U.S. holder of Altimar II ordinary shares or warrants should consult its tax advisors concerning the application of the PFIC rules to such securities under such holder’s particular circumstances.
Effect to U.S. Holders of Altimar II Ordinary Shares Exercising Redemption Rights
This section is addressed to U.S. holders of Altimar II ordinary shares (which will be exchanged for Fathom common stock in the Domestication) that elect to exercise Redemption Rights to receive cash in exchange for Altimar II ordinary shares and is subject in its entirety to the discussion of the Domestication, the PFIC rules and Section 367 of the Code as discussed above.
The U.S. federal income tax consequences to a U.S. holder of Altimar II ordinary shares (which become Fathom common stock in the Domestication) that exercises its Redemption Rights to receive cash from the Trust Account in exchange for all or a portion of its common stock will depend on whether the redemption qualifies as
 
181

Table of Contents
a sale of the Fathom common stock redeemed under Section 302 of the Code or is treated as a distribution under Section 301 of the Code. If the redemption qualifies as a sale of such U.S. holder’s Fathom common stock redeemed, the holder will generally recognize capital gain or capital loss equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of cash received and such holder’s tax basis in the Fathom common stock redeemed (which basis will depend on the treatment of the Domestication, including under Section 367 of the Code and the PFIC rules, as described above).
Whether a redemption qualifies for sale treatment will depend largely on the total amount of Fathom common stock treated as held by the U.S. holder (including any shares constructively owned by the U.S. holder as a result of owning warrants) relative to all of Fathom common stock outstanding both before and after the redemption (which will include any Fathom common stock issued under the Stock Issuance Proposal). The redemption of Fathom common stock will generally be treated as a sale of the Fathom common stock (rather than as a corporate distribution) if the redemption (i) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the U.S. holder, (ii) results in a “complete termination” of the U.S. holder’s interest in Fathom or (iii) is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to the U.S. holder.
In determining whether any of the foregoing tests are satisfied, a U.S. holder takes into account not only Fathom common stock actually owned by the U.S. holder, but also Fathom common stock constructively owned by the U.S. holder. A U.S. holder may constructively own, in addition to shares owned directly, shares owned by certain related individuals and entities in which the U.S. holder has an interest or that have an interest in such U.S. holder, as well as any shares the U.S. holder has a right to acquire by exercise of an option, which would generally include Fathom common stock which could be acquired pursuant to an exercise of any Fathom warrants by such U.S. holder.
In order to meet the substantially disproportionate test, the percentage of the Fathom outstanding voting shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. holder immediately following the redemption of Fathom common stock must, among other requirements, be less than 80% of the percentage of the Fathom outstanding voting shares actually and constructively owned by the U.S. holder immediately before the redemption. Prior to the Business Combination, the Altimar II ordinary shares and Fathom common stock may not be considered voting shares for this purpose and, consequently, this substantially disproportionate test may not be applicable. There will be a complete termination of such U.S. holder’s interest if either (i) all of the Fathom common stock actually and constructively owned by such U.S. holder are redeemed or (ii) all of the Fathom common stock actually owned by such U.S. holder are redeemed and such U.S. holder is eligible to waive, and effectively waives in accordance with specific rules, the attribution of any Fathom common stock actually and constructively owned by certain family members and such U.S. holder does not constructively own any other Fathom common stock and otherwise complies with specific conditions. The redemption of common stock will not be essentially equivalent to a dividend if the redemption results in a “meaningful reduction” of the U.S. holder’s proportionate interest in Fathom. Whether the redemption will result in a meaningful reduction in a U.S. holder’s proportionate interest in Fathom will depend on the particular facts and circumstances. However, the IRS has indicated in a published ruling that even a small reduction in the proportionate interest of a minority stockholder in a publicly held corporation who exercises no control over corporate affairs may constitute such a “meaningful reduction”.
If the redemption does not qualify as a sale of the Fathom common stock redeemed, the U.S. holder will be treated as receiving a corporate distribution from Fathom. Such distribution will generally be treated as a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent the distribution is paid out of Fathom’s current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Distributions in excess of any such earnings and profits will generally be applied against and reduce the U.S. holder’s basis in its other Fathom common stock (but not below zero) and, to the extent in excess of such basis, will be treated as capital gain from the sale or exchange of such redeemed shares. After the application of these rules, any remaining tax basis of the U.S. holder in such holder’s redeemed Fathom common stock will generally be added to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its remaining Fathom common stock, or, if it has none, to the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Fathom warrants or possibly in other Fathom common stock shares constructively owned by such holder.

Table of Contents
Because the Domestication will occur immediately prior to the redemption of U.S. holders that exercise Redemption Rights, U.S. holders exercising Redemption Rights will be subject to the potential tax consequences of Section 367 of the Code as a result of the Domestication discussed further above.
U.S. holders who actually or constructively own five percent or more of Fathom stock (by vote or value) may be subject to special reporting requirements with respect to a redemption, and such holders should consult with their tax advisors with respect to any applicable reporting requirements.
All U.S. holders are urged to consult with their tax advisors as to the tax consequences of a redemption of all or a portion of their Fathom common stock pursuant to an exercise of Redemption Rights.
Effect of the Business Combination on U.S. Holders of Fathom Common Stock and Warrants
U.S. holders that hold Fathom common stock and warrants after the Domestication should not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes solely as a result of the Business Combination.
Non-U.S.
Holders
The following describes U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the ownership and disposition of Fathom common stock and warrants by a
non-U.S.
holder after the Domestication. A
“non-U.S.
holder” is a beneficial owner of Fathom common stock or warrants that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:
 
   
a
non-resident
alien individual;
 
   
a foreign corporation; or
 
   
an estate or trust that is not a U.S. holder.
Such term, however, generally does not include an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition. If you are such an individual, you are urged to consult your tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the sale or other disposition of Fathom common stock or warrants.
Dividends
Any distribution of cash or property (or a constructive distribution) Fathom makes to a
non-U.S.
holder of Fathom common stock or warrants, to the extent paid out of Fathom’s current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), generally will constitute a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any such dividends paid or deemed paid to a
non-U.S.
holder in respect of Fathom common stock (or warrants) that is not effectively connected with the
non-U.S.
holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States, as described below, generally will be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a rate of 30% of the gross amount of the dividend, unless such
non-U.S.
holder is eligible for a reduced rate of withholding tax under an applicable income tax treaty and provides proper certification of its eligibility for such reduced rate (usually on an IRS Form
W-8BEN
or
W-8BEN-E,
as applicable). In satisfying the foregoing withholding obligation with respect to a distribution, the applicable withholding agent may withhold up to 30% of either (i) the gross amount of the entire distribution, even if the amount of the distribution is greater than the amount constituting a dividend, as described above, or (ii) the amount of the distribution Fathom projects will be a dividend, based upon a reasonable estimate of both its current and accumulated earnings and profits for the taxable year in which the distribution is made. If U.S. federal income tax is withheld on the amount of a distribution in excess of the amount constituting a dividend, the
non-U.S.
holder may obtain a refund of all or a portion of the excess amount withheld by timely filing a claim for refund with the IRS. Any such distribution not constituting a dividend generally will be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, first as reducing the
non-U.S.
holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Fathom common stock or warrants (but not below zero) and, to the
 
183

Table of Contents
extent such distribution exceeds the
non-U.S.
holder’s adjusted tax basis, as gain from the sale or other taxable disposition of such Fathom common stock or warrants, which will be treated as described under “—
Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Fathom Common Stock and Warrants
” below.
Dividends (including constructive dividends) Fathom pays to a
non-U.S.
holder that are effectively connected with such
non-U.S.
holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment or fixed base of the
non-U.S.
holder) generally will not be subject to the foregoing U.S. federal withholding tax, provided such
non-U.S.
holder complies with certain certification and disclosure requirements (usually by providing an IRS Form
W-8ECI).
Instead, unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise, such dividends generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax, net of certain deductions, at the same regular U.S. federal income tax rates applicable to a comparable U.S. holder. In addition, if the
non-U.S.
holder is a corporation, such holder’s effectively connected earnings and profits (subject to adjustments) may be subject to a U.S. federal “branch profits tax” at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty).
Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Fathom Common Stock and Warrants
A
non-U.S.
holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax in respect of gain recognized on a sale, exchange or other disposition of Fathom common stock or warrants unless:
 
   
the gain is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business by the
non-U.S.
holder within the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment or fixed base of the
non-U.S.
holder);
 
   
the
non-U.S.
holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of disposition (subject to certain exceptions as a result of the COVID pandemic) and certain other conditions are met; or
 
   
Fathom is or has been a “United States real property holding corporation” (“USRPHC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition or the
non-U.S.
holder’s holding period, and either (i) Fathom’s common stock has ceased to be regularly traded on an established securities market or (ii) the
non-U.S.
holder has owned or is deemed to have owned under constructive ownership rules, at any time within the five-year period preceding the disposition or the
non-U.S.
holder’s holding period, whichever period is shorter, more than 5% of Fathom’s Class A common stock.
Unless an applicable tax treaty provides otherwise, any gain described in the first bullet point above generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax, net of certain deductions, at the same regular U.S. federal income tax rates applicable to a comparable U.S. holder and, in addition, a
non-U.S.
holder described in the first bullet point that is a foreign corporation will be subject to U.S. federal “branch profits tax” at a 30% rate (or a lower applicable tax treaty rate) on such
non-U.S.
holder’s effectively connected earnings and profits (subject to adjustments). Any gain of a
non-U.S.
holder described in the second bullet point above (which may be offset by U.S. source capital losses during the taxable year of the disposition) generally will be subject to a flat 30% U.S. federal income tax rate (or a lower applicable tax treaty rate).
Unless an applicable tax treaty provides otherwise, any gain described in the third bullet point above that is recognized by such
non-U.S.
holder on the sale, exchange or other disposition of Fathom common stock or warrants generally will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates. In addition, a buyer of such Fathom common stock or warrants from a
non-U.S.
holder may be required to withhold U.S. income tax at a rate of 15% of the amount realized upon such disposition if such stock or warrants are not treated as “regularly traded on an established securities market.” Fathom will generally be classified as a “U.S. real property holding corporation” if the fair market value of its “United States real property interests” equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests and its other assets used

or held for use in a trade or business, as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Fathom does not expect to be classified as a “U.S. real property holding corporation” following the Business Combination. However, such determination is factual in nature and subject to change, and no assurance can be provided as to whether Fathom is or will be a U.S. real property holding corporation with respect to a
non-U.S.
holder following the Business Combination or at any future time.
Tax Consequences to
Non-U.S.
Holders That Elect to Exercise Redemption Rights
This section is addressed to
non-U.S.
holders of Fathom common stock that elect to exercise Redemption Rights to receive cash in exchange for all or a portion of their Fathom common stock. For purposes of this discussion, a “redeeming
non-U.S.
holder” is a
non-U.S.
holder that elects to exercise Redemption Rights in respect of all or a portion of its Fathom common stock.
Because the Domestication will occur immediately prior to the redemption of
non-U.S.
holders that exercise Redemption Rights with respect to Fathom common stock, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to a redeeming
non-U.S.
holder will depend on whether the redemption qualifies as a sale of the Fathom common stock redeemed, as described above under “—
U.S. Holders
 —
 Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders That Elect to Exercise Redemption Rights
.” If such a redemption qualifies as a sale of Fathom common stock, the U.S. federal income tax consequences to the redeeming
non-U.S.
holder generally will be as described above under “—
Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Fathom Common Stock and Warrants
.” If such a redemption does not qualify as a sale of Fathom common stock, the redeeming
non-U.S.
holder generally will be treated as receiving a distribution, the U.S. federal income tax consequences of which are described above under “—
Dividends
.”
ALL
NON-U.S.
HOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE DOMESTICATION TO THEM.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
Dividend payments with respect to Fathom common stock and proceeds from the sale, exchange or redemption of Fathom common stock or warrants may be subject to information reporting to the IRS and possible U.S. backup withholding. Backup withholding will not apply, however, to a U.S. holder who furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number and makes other required certifications, or who is otherwise exempt from backup withholding and establishes such exempt status.
A
Non-U.S.
holder generally will eliminate the requirement for information reporting (other than with respect to dividends) and backup withholding by providing certification of its
non-U.S.
status on a duly-executed applicable IRS Form
W-8
or by otherwise establishing an exemption.
Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against a holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, and a holder generally may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by timely filing the appropriate claim for refund with the IRS and furnishing any required information.
Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act
Pursuant to the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (“FATCA”), set forth in Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, foreign financial institutions (which include hedge funds, private equity funds, mutual funds and any other investment vehicles regardless of their size) must comply with information reporting rules with respect to their U.S. account holders and investors or bear a withholding tax on certain payments made to them (including such payments made to them in their capacity as intermediaries). Generally, if a foreign financial institution or
 
185

Table of Contents
certain other foreign entity does not comply with these reporting requirements, “withholdable payments” to the noncomplying entity will be subject to a 30% withholding tax. For this purpose, withholdable payments include U.S.-source payments otherwise subject to nonresident withholding tax and, subject to the discussion of the proposed Treasury Regulations below, the entire gross proceeds from the sale of certain equity or debt instruments of U.S. issuers. This withholding tax will apply to a
non-compliant
foreign financial institution regardless of whether the payment would otherwise be exempt from U.S. nonresident withholding tax.
Withholding under FATCA will generally apply to payments of dividends on Fathom common stock to foreign financial institutions that are not in compliance with FATCA. The U.S. Department of the Treasury released proposed regulations which, if finalized in their present form, would eliminate the U.S. federal withholding tax of 30% applicable to the gross proceeds of a sale or disposition of equity interests. In its preamble to the proposed regulations, the U.S. Treasury stated that taxpayers may generally rely on the proposed regulations until final regulations are issued.
Similar withholding requirements to the foregoing apply to dividends on and, subject to the proposed regulations, gross proceeds from the sale of, Fathom common stock held by an investor that is a
non-financial
foreign entity unless such entity provides certain information regarding the entity’s “substantial United States owners,” which the applicable withholding agent will in turn be required to provide to the Secretary of the Treasury.
If a dividend payment is both subject to withholding under FATCA and subject to the withholding tax discussed above, the withholding under FATCA may be credited against, and therefore reduce, such other withholding tax. Each
non-U.S.
holder is urged to consult its tax advisor regarding these rules and whether they may be relevant to such
non-U.S.
holder’s ownership and disposition of Fathom common stock and warrants.
Foreign entities located in jurisdictions that have entered into intergovernmental agreements with the United States in connection with FATCA may be subject to different rules.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Introduction
The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 and the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 and the six months ended June 30, 2021 present the combination of the financial information of Altimar Acquisition Corp. II (“Altimar II”) and Fathom Holdco, LLC (“Fathom OpCo”), adjusted to give effect to the Business Combination, the acquisitions of Incodema, Dahlquist, Majestic Metals, Mark Two, Newchem, and GPI completed in 2020 (collectively, the “2020 Acquisitions”), as discussed in further detail in Note 3 — Business Combination in the Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements of Fathom Holdco, LLC and the acquisitions of Summit, Centex, Laser, Micropulse West and PPC completed in 2021 (collectively, the “2021 Acquisitions”), as discussed in further detail in Note 3 in the Notes to the Interim Consolidated Financial Statements of Fathom Holdco, LLC. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation
S-X.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2020 and six months ended June 30, 2021 combines the historical statements of operations of Altimar II, Fathom OpCo, the 2020 Acquisitions and the 2021 Acquisitions for such period on a pro forma basis as if the Business Combination, the 2020 Acquisitions and the 2021 Acquisitions had been consummated and completed on January 1, 2020, the beginning of the period presented.

Table of Contents
   
other information relating to Altimar II and Fathom OpCo contained in this proxy statement/prospectus, including the Business Combination Agreement and the description of certain terms thereof set forth in the section entitled “The Business Combination.”
On July 16, 2021, Altimar Acquisition Corp. II entered into a definitive business combination agreement with Fathom Holdings, LLC. Notwithstanding the legal form of the business combination pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, the Business Combination will be accounted for in accordance with ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), using the acquisition method. For accounting purposes, the acquirer is the entity that has obtained control of another entity and, thus, consummated a business combination. The determination of whether control has been obtained begins with the evaluation of whether control should be evaluated based on the variable interest or voting interest model pursuant to ASC Topic 810, Consolidation (“ASC 810”). In all redemption scenarios, Fathom has been determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following factors:
 
   
Fathom OpCo is a variable interest entity (“VIE”). Fathom will be the sole managing member and primary beneficiary which has full and complete charge of all affairs of Fathom OpCo, and the New Fathom Units of Fathom OpCo do not have substantive participating or kick out rights; and
 
   
No single party controls Fathom pre and post transaction, hence, the Business Combination is not considered a common control transaction.
The factors discussed above support the conclusion that Fathom will acquire a controlling financial interest in Fathom OpCo and will be the accounting acquirer. Fathom is the primary beneficiary of Fathom OpCo, which is a VIE, since it has the power to direct the activities of Fathom OpCo that most significantly impact Fathom OpCo’s economic performance through its role as the sole managing member of Fathom OpCo, and Fathom’s variable interests in Fathom OpCo include ownership of Fathom OpCo, which results in the right (and obligation) to receive benefits (and absorb losses) of Fathom OpCo that could potentially be significant to Fathom. Therefore, the Business Combination will be accounted for using the acquisition method. Under this method of accounting, Fathom is treated as the acquirer and Fathom OpCo is treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the assets and liabilities of Fathom OpCo will be recognized at fair value, and any consideration in excess of the fair value of the net assets acquired (including identifiable intangible assets) will be recognized as goodwill.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared using the assumptions below with respect to the potential redemption into cash of Altimar II’s Public Shares:
 
   
Assuming No Redemptions:
This “minimum scenario” presentation assumes that none of the 34,500,000 Public Shares outstanding as of the Record Date are redeemed by Altimar II Public Shareholders.
 
   
Assuming Maximum Redemptions:
This “maximum redemptions” presentation assumes that Altimar II’s Public Shareholders redeem 11,200,000 shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares, the maximum number of shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares that may be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account that would still allow Altimar II to satisfy the condition precedent in the Business Combination Agreement that as of immediately prior to the Business Combination, Altimar II have an Available Cash Amount of at least $313 million. This calculation assumes that the full $80 million in aggregate proceeds are received from the PIPE Investment and that the amount in the Trust Account (prior to any redemptions) is equal to $345 million (the approximate amount in the Trust Account as of June 30, 2021), resulting in an aggregate redemption payment (based on an estimated redemption price per share of approximately $10) of $112 million and Available Trust Proceeds at closing of approximately $233 million. This scenario results in the following adjustments to (i) the consideration payable at closing and (ii) Forfeited Shares:
 
   
Existing Fathom Owner Consideration:
A reduction to the amount of the Closing Cash Consideration of $112 million, such that the Closing Cash Consideration will be equal to $206 million (assuming the Balance Sheet contribution is $25 million and the Debt
Pay-Down
 
188

Table of Contents
 
Amount is equal to $22 million), and a corresponding increase in the number of shares of Class A common stock and New Fathom Units that comprise the Closing Seller Equity Consideration equal to 11,200,000 (equal to the amount by which Closing Cash Consideration is reduced in this scenario divided by $10), such that the Closing Seller Equity Consideration will be an aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock and New Fathom Units stock equal to 99,400,000.
 
   
Forfeited Shares:
Under a Maximum Redemption scenario in which 11,200,000 shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares are redeemed, the Altimar II Founders will forfeit 968,750 shares of Class A common stock, calculated pursuant to the terms of the Forfeiture and Support Agreement and the Business Combination Agreement. The Maximum Redemption Scenario results in an Altimar II Stock Redemption Ratio of 0.32, which is the quotient of (A) the number of Altimar Class A ordinary shares redeemed in the Altimar II Stock Redemption divided by (B) 34,500,000. This Altimar II Stock Redemption Ratio results in a Redemption Forfeiture Ratio of approximately 11.23%, as defined by the Forfeiture and Support Agreement and the Business Combination Agreement, which is multiplied by the total aggregate number of then issued and outstanding shares of Altimar II Class C common stock of 8,625,000, resulting in 968,750 shares of Class A common stock forfeited by the Altimar II Founders.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
Overview
Under either the no redemption or maximum redemption scenarios, the Business Combination will be accounted for in accordance with ASC 805. For accounting purposes, the acquirer is the entity that has obtained control of another entity and, thus, consummated a business combination. The determination of whether control has been obtained begins with the evaluation of whether control should be evaluated based on the variable interest or voting interest model pursuant to ASC 810. If the acquiree is a variable interest entity, the primary beneficiary would be the accounting acquirer. Fathom OpCo meets the definition of a variable interest entity and Fathom, which will be the managing member, has been determined to be the primary beneficiary. Under this method of accounting, Fathom is treated as the acquirer and Fathom OpCo is treated as the acquired company for financial statement reporting purposes.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and the year ended December 31, 2020 gives pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2020.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 gives pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated on June 30, 2021.
Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in its determination of the pro forma adjustments. As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded may differ materially from the information presented.
The pro forma adjustments reflecting the consummation of the Business Combination are based on certain currently available information and certain assumptions and methodologies that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited condensed combined pro forma adjustments, which are described in the accompanying notes, may be revised as additional information becomes available and is evaluated. Therefore, it is likely that the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments and it is possible the difference may be material.
Management believes that its assumptions and methodologies provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the Business Combination based on information available to management at the time and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations would have been had the Business Combination taken place on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of the post-combination company. They should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of Fathom OpCo, Altimar II, Incodema, Dahquist, and Majestic Metals included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.
Description of Business Combination
Altimar Acquisition Corp. II is a blank check company incorporated on December 7, 2020 as a Cayman Islands exempted company organized for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.
In connection with the Closing:
 
  (a)
Altimar II will change its jurisdiction of incorporation by deregistering as an exempted company in the Cayman Islands and continuing and domesticating as a corporation under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Domestication”), upon which Altimar II will change its name to “Fathom Digital Manufacturing Corporation.”

Table of Contents
  (b)
Fathom OpCo will issue managing member interests in Fathom OpCo to Altimar II in exchange for a nominal cash payment;
 
  (c)
Following step (b) above, each of CORE Fund I
Blocker-5
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Fathom Blocker 1”), CORE Fund I
Blocker-2
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Fathom Blocker 2”), and SG (MCT) Blocker, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (Fathom Blocker 3” and, together with Fathom Blocker 1 and Fathom Blocker 2, the “Fathom Blockers”), will merge with and into Rapid Blocker 1 Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Altimar II (“Blocker Merger Sub 1”), Rapid Blocker 2 Merger Sub, LLC , a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Altimar II (“Blocker Merger Sub 2”), and Rapid Blocker 3 Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Altimar II (“Blocker Merger Sub 3” and, together with Blocker Merger Sub 1 and Blocker Merger Sub 2, the “Blocker Merger Subs”), respectively, in each case, with the Fathom Blockers surviving as the surviving companies and wholly owned subsidiaries of Altimar II (collectively, the “Surviving Fathom Blockers”);
 
  (d)
Immediately following step (c) above, the Surviving Fathom Blockers will each merge with and into Altimar II (the “Blocker Altimar Mergers”), in each case, with Altimar II as the surviving company; and
 
  (e)
Immediately following the Blocker Altimar Mergers, Rapid Merger Sub will merge with and into Fathom OpCo (the “Fathom Merger”), with Fathom OpCo as the surviving entity of the Fathom Merger (Fathom, in its capacity as the surviving entity of the Fathom Merger, is sometimes referred to as the “Fathom Surviving Entity”). Following the Fathom Merger, the Fathom Surviving Entity will be owned by Altimar II and all other holders of Fathom OpCo units outstanding as of immediately prior to the Fathom Merger (such other holders, excluding Altimar II, are referred to as the “Continuing Fathom Unitholders”).
Upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the combined company will be organized in an
“Up-C”
structure, in which substantially all of the assets and business of the combined company will be held by Fathom OpCo. Altimar II and the Continuing Fathom Unitholders will be issued Class A units of Fathom OpCo (“New Fathom Units”). Altimar II will be the managing member of Fathom OpCo. Altimar II will issue to Continuing Fathom Unitholders for cash at par value a number of shares of Class B common stock equal to the number New Fathom Units held by the Continuing Fathom Unitholders. Altimar II’s other stockholders will hold Class A common stock of Altimar II. Shares of Class A common stock will be entitled to economic rights and one vote per share and shares of Class B common stock will be entitled to one vote per share but no economic rights. The combined company’s business will continue to operate through Fathom OpCo.

Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
The preliminary consideration and allocation of the purchase price to the fair value of Fathom OpCo’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed, as if the acquisition date was June 30, 2021, is presented below. Fathom has not completed the detailed valuations necessary to estimate the fair value of the assets acquired and the liabilities assumed and, accordingly, the adjustments to record the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value reflect the best estimates of Fathom OpCo based on the information currently available and are subject to change once additional analyses are completed. The final purchase price of the Business Combination is subject to the determination of certain items that are subject to adjustment at Closing pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement.

4. Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations for the Year Ended December 31, 2020
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined 2020 Income Statement has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the business combination and has been prepared for informational purposes only.
Fathom OpCo and Altimar II have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.
The following adjustments are incorporated in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information:
 
  a)
Cost of Revenue
Cost of revenue is impacted by $5.2 million due to increased inventory balances caused by the
non-cash
impact of the step up to fair value of the inventory and increased amortization of intangible assets.
 
  b)
Selling, general, and administrative
Adjustments to selling, general, and administrative expenses of $41.5 million represent transaction expenses incurred in conjunction with the Business Combination. This adjustment was partially offset by an adjustment of $(0.7) million related to the removal of management fees previously paid.
 
  c)
Depreciation and Amortization
Adjustments to depreciation and amortization of $6.2 million represent the depreciation and amortization expense related to the step up of the fair value of real property and intangibles assets.
 
  d)
Interest Expense
Adjustments to interest expense represents the increase to interest expense resulting from the incurrence of new debt associated with the closing of the Business Combination of $6.1 million, consisting of cash interest of $5.6 million and the amortization of deferred issuance costs of $0.5 million, which were a result of the Company refinancing its debt in conjunction with the Business Combination, offset by interest expense of $9.3 million related to prior debt which was entered into in order to effectuate the 2020 Acquisitions described in Note 3 to Fathom OpCo’s historical financial statements.
 
  e)
Income Taxes
Fathom OpCo has been, and will continue to be, treated as a partnership for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes. As such, Fathom OpCo’s profits and losses will flow through to its partners,

Table of Contents
including Fathom, and are generally not subject to tax at the Fathom OpCo level. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Fathom will be subject to U.S. federal, state, and local taxes.
As a result, we expect a portion of our income after our corporate reorganization to be taxable in jurisdictions in which it previously had not been taxable. We expect the blended federal and state tax rate on income attributable to Altimar II to be approximately 26.86% before giving effect to whether or not deferred tax assets are able to be realized by Altimar II. As it is more likely than not that Altimar II’s deferred tax assets will not be realized in accordance with ASC 740, no income tax benefit is recognized.
 
  f)
Net (loss) income per share
The net loss per share is calculated using the weighted average shares outstanding, and the issuance of additional Company shares in connection with the Business Combination, assuming the shares were outstanding since January 1, 2020. As the Business Combination and related transactions are being reflected as if they had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares issuable relating to the Business Combination have been outstanding for the entire periods presented. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared assuming two alternative levels of redemption by Altimar II’s Public Shareholders of shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account (calculated based on the amount in the Trust Account as of June 30, 2021).

As described in the section entitled “Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — Structure of the Business Combination,” upon completion of the Business Combination, the Company will control Fathom OpCo as the sole managing member and the Company will be a holding company with no assets or operations other than its equity interest in Fathom OpCo.
Assuming No Redemptions, as a result of the Business Combination, the Company will initially own approximately 55.5% of the economic interest of Fathom OpCo, but will have 100% of the voting power and will control the management of Fathom OpCo. Immediately following the completion of the Business Combination, the
non-voting
ownership percentage held by the noncontrolling interest will be approximately 44.5%.
Assuming Maximum Redemptions, as a result of the Business Combination, the Company will initially own approximately 49.4% of the economic interest of Fathom OpCo, but will have 100% of the voting power and will control the management of Fathom OpCo. Immediately following the completion of the Business Combination, the
non-voting
ownership percentage held by the noncontrolling interest will be approximately 50.6%.

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Fathom will be subject to U.S. federal, state, and local taxes.
As a result, we expect a portion of our income after our corporate reorganization to be taxable in jurisdictions in which it previously had not been taxable. We expect the blended federal and state tax rate on income attributable to Pubco to be approximately 26.86% before given effect to whether or not deferred tax assets are able to be realized by Pubco. As it is more likely than not that Pubco’s deferred tax assets will not be realized in accordance with ASC 740, no income tax benefit is recognized.

6. Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2021
The adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2021 are as follows:
 
  a)
Reflects the proceeds of $80.0 million from the issuance of 8,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 from the PIPE Investment based on estimated commitments received.
 
  b)
Reflects the entry into a $125.0 million term loan and a $25.0 million revolver, net of deferred financing fees of $2.4 million, payment of the historical debt of $169.5 million, and payment of accrued interest of $1.0 million.
 
202

Table of Contents
  c)
A total of $60.0 million of expected transaction costs are to be incurred with the Business Combination, including $2.4 million of deferred financing costs. Of the total costs, $12.1 million relate to deferred IPO fees described in (f).
 
  d)
Reflects the reclassification of $345.0 million of cash and cash equivalents held in the Trust Account of Altimar that will become available for transaction consideration, transaction expenses, and the operating activities in conjunction with the Business Combination.
 
  e)
Represents the adjustment for the estimated preliminary purchase price allocation for the acquisition of Fathom OpCo resulting from the Business Combination. The preliminary calculation of total consideration is presented above in Note 1 above.
$1,320.3 million and $1,315.0 million has been allocated to goodwill assuming No Redemptions and Maximum Redemptions, respectively. Goodwill represents the excess of the gross consideration over the fair value of the underlying net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired. Qualitative factors that contribute to the recognition of goodwill include certain intangible assets that are not recognized as separate identifiable intangible assets. Goodwill represents future economic benefits arising from acquiring Fathom OpCo, primarily due to its strong market position, that are not individually identified and separately recognized as intangible assets. An adjustment of $83.1 million was made to remove Fathom OpCo’s historical goodwill.
In accordance with ASC Topic 350, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (“ASC 350”), goodwill will not be amortized, but instead will be tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if certain indicators are present. In the event that the value of goodwill and/or intangible assets has become impaired, an accounting charge for impairment during the quarter in which the determination is made may be recognized.
This adjustment additionally eliminates the historical accumulated deficit of Fathom OpCo of $19.0 million and establishes
additional paid-in-capital of
$886.0 million and $807.9 million assuming No Redemptions and Maximum Redemptions, respectively, based upon the value of the business acquired. The additional
paid-in
capital balance was established by recording the purchase price of $1,442 million to the additional paid in capital account. The PIPE Investment of $80.0 million was also recorded to additional
paid-in
capital. An adjustment of $16.1 million was made to reduce additional
paid-in
capital for the payment of transaction costs. Adjustments of $318.0 million and $206.0 million were made assuming No Redemptions and Maximum Redemptions, respectively, to reduce additional
paid-in
capital for the payment cash consideration. Adjustments to increase additional
paid-in
capital by $306.5 million and $194.5 million were made assuming No Redemptions and Maximum Redemptions, respectively, in order to record the conversion of redeemable share. As discussed below, adjustments of $615.0 million and $693.0 million were made in order to record the
non-controlling
interest assuming No Redemptions and Maximum Redemptions, respectively. The legacy equity of Fathom OpCo was eliminated through an adjustment of $50.4 million.
Deferred tax assets,
additional paid-in capital,
and non-controlling interest
in the partnership are recognized to reflect the difference between the financial statement and tax basis in the investment in Fathom OpCo, including the deferred tax asset that results from
the step-up for
tax purposes of certain assets of Fathom OpCo. The realizability of the deferred tax assets is subject to various estimates and assumptions, including preliminary projections of future taxable income.
 
  f)
Reflects the payment of deferred IPO fees which includes $12.1 million of deferred underwriters’ and professional fees in connection with Altimar’s IPO.
 
  g)
Represents the pro forma adjustments to reclassify Altimar Class B common stock, which will be converted to Altimar Class C common stock as a required step for the Domestication of Altimar and subsequently and immediately converted to Altimar Class A common stock and Altimar redeemable Class A common stock that will be converted to Class A common stock following the Business Combination.

interest related to the interest held by the Continuing Fathom Unitholders.
As described in the section entitled “Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — Structure of the Business Combination,” upon completion of the Business Combination, the Company will control Fathom OpCo as the sole managing member and the Company will be a holding company with no assets or operations other than its equity interest in Fathom OpCo.
The following summarizes the number of shares of Company Class A common stock outstanding upon completion of the Business Combination under the two redemption scenarios, excluding 9,000,000 Earnout Shares and 1,267,500 Sponsor Earnout Shares:

  i)
Represents the impact of the maximum redemption scenario at an estimated per share redemption price. Upon the maximum redemption scenario, $112.0 million in cash will be paid to redeemable shareholders with the offset to additional
paid-in
capital. In addition, a decrease in cash consideration used in the Business Combination was offset with an increase in equity consideration. In addition, under the maximum redemption scenario, Fathom will own 55.5% of the economic interest of Fathom OpCo, and the Continuing Fathom Unitholders will own the remaining 45.5%, and therefore, this adjustments reflects changes to
non-controlling
interest as a result of this change.
 
  j)
Upon completion of the Business Combination, Fathom will be party to a Tax Receivable Agreement (“TRA”). As described under “
Certain Relationships and Related-Party Transactions — Tax Receivable Agreement
,” in connection with this Business Combination, Fathom will enter into a TRA with the existing members of Fathom OpCo. The agreement will require the Company to pay to such members (or their owners) 85% of the amount of tax savings, if any, that the Company realizes in certain circumstances as a result of (i) increases in tax basis resulting from the Business Combination, (ii) certain tax attributes of the Fathom OpCo existing prior to the Business Combination, and (iii) tax benefits attributable to payments made under this TRA, generating a liability (the “TRA liability”). The deferred tax asset and the TRA liability for the TRA assume: (A) only exchanges associated with this Business Combination, (B) a share price equal to $10 per share, (C) a constant income tax rate, (D) no material changes in tax law, (E) the ability to utilize tax attributes, (F) no adjustment for potential remedial allocations, and (G) future TRA payments.
Assuming No Redemptions, the TRA has an estimated value of $20.8 million and assuming Maximum Redemptions, the TRA has an estimated value of $15.5 million.

Assuming No Redemptions
: This presentation assumes that no Public Shareholders of Altimar II will exercise redemption rights with respect to their Public Shares for a pro rata share of the funds in theTrust Account.
 
   
Assuming Low Redemptions:
This presentation assumes that Public Shareholders holding 2,800,000 shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares will exercise redemption rights with respect to their Public Shares for a pro rata share (approximately $10.00 per share) of the funds in the Trust Account.
 
   
Assuming High Redemptions:
This presentation assumes that Public Shareholders holding 8,400,000 shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares will exercise redemption rights with respect to their Public Shares for a pro rata share (approximately $10.00 per share) of the funds in the Trust Account.
 
   
Assuming Maximum Redemptions
: This presentation assumes that Altimar II’s Public Shareholders redeem 11,200,000 shares of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares, the maximum number of shares of Altimar II Class A ordinary shares that may be redeemed for a pro rata portion of the funds in the Trust Account that would still allow Altimar II to satisfy the condition precedent in the Business Combination Agreement that as of immediately prior to the Business Combination, Altimar II have an Available Cash Amount of at least $313 million. This calculation assumes that the full $80 million in aggregate proceeds are received from the PIPE Investment and that the amount in the Trust Account (prior to any redemptions) is equal to $345 million (approximately the amount in the Trust Account as of June 30, 2021), resulting in an aggregate redemption payment (based on an estimated redemption price per share of approximately $10) of $112 million and available Trust Account proceeds at closing of approximately $233 million.

INFORMATION ABOUT ALTIMAR II
General
Altimar II is a blank check company incorporated on December 7, 2020 as a Cayman Islands exempted company organized for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (the “initial business combination”).
Altimar II’s sponsor, Altimar Sponsor II LLC (the “Sponsor”), is affiliated with HPS Investment Partners, LLC (“HPS”). HPS is a global investment firm with approximately $72 billion of assets under management as of June 1, 2021. Founded in 2007, HPS manages various investment strategies that invest across the capital structure, from privately negotiated senior secured debt and mezzanine investments, asset-based leasing and private equity to syndicated leveraged loans and high yield bonds. HPS is headquartered in New York with 11 additional offices worldwide. As of December 31, 2020, HPS had 152 investment professionals and over 380 employees globally. The scale and breadth of HPS’s platform offers its clients the flexibility to invest in companies large and small, through standard or customized solutions. HPS is led by Chief Executive Officer and Governing Partner Scott Kapnick, who, prior to founding HPS, served as a Management Committee member, Partner and
Co-Head
of Global Investment Banking at The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.
Altimar II’s Business Strategy
Building on HPS’s experience in investing in high-quality businesses globally since 2007, Altimar II’s strategy is to acquire a compelling asset with a world class management team that is poised for growth. Altimar II’s goal is to deliver public shareholders an opportunity to own a long term, durable compounding equity investment that can produce strong returns.
Fair Market Value of Target Business
The New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) rules require that the initial business combination must occur with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the net assets held in the Trust Account (net of amounts disbursed to management for working capital purposes and excluding the amount of any deferred underwriting discount held in trust) at the time of Altimar II signing a definitive agreement in connection with the initial business combination. Altimar II’s board of directors has determined that this test was met in connection with the proposed business combination at the time the Business Combination Agreement was signed.
Initial Public Offering and Private Placement
On February 9, 2021, Altimar II consummated its initial public offering of 34,500,000 units (the “Units”), which included 4,500,000 units issued pursuant to the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option. Each Unit consists of one Class A ordinary share, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Class A ordinary shares”), and
one-fourth
of one redeemable warrant (the “Public Warrants”), each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Units were sold at an offering price of $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $345,000,000.
Concurrently with the completion of Altimar II’s initial public offering, the Sponsor entered into a Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which the Sponsor purchased 9,900,000 private placement warrants (the “Private Warrants”), each exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment, at a price of $1.00 per warrant.

Effecting the Initial Business Combination
General
Altimar II is not presently engaged in any operations other than to seek an initial business combination. Altimar II intends to effectuate the initial business combination using cash from the proceeds of its initial public offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants to the Sponsor, the PIPE Investment described herein and the Closing Seller Equity Consideration.
Shareholder Approval of the Business Combination and Redemption
Pursuant to the terms of the proposed business combination, as described in the section titled “
The Extraordinary General Meeting
” in this proxy statement/prospectus, Altimar II is seeking shareholder approval at a meeting called for such purpose at which Public Shareholders may seek to redeem all or a portion of their Class A ordinary shares for cash at a price per share equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the proposed business combination, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to Altimar II to pay its income taxes, if any, divided by the number of then-outstanding Class A ordinary shares in accordance with the procedures set forth in this proxy statement/prospectus. The redemption rights require that a beneficial holder must identify itself in order to validly redeem its shares. There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of the proposed business combination with respect to Altimar II’s warrants. Further, Altimar II will not proceed with redeeming its Class A ordinary shares, even if a public shareholder has properly elected to redeem its shares, if the proposed business combination does not close.
The approval of the Business Combination requires an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law, being the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the ordinary shares who, being present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, vote at the Special Meeting. A majority of the voting power of the issued and outstanding Altimar II Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares entitled to vote at the Special Meeting must be present, in person or represented by proxy, at the Special Meeting to constitute a quorum and in order to conduct business at the Special Meeting. The holders of the founder shares, who currently own approximately 20% of the issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares, will count towards this quorum.
Voting Restrictions in Connection with Shareholder Meeting
The Sponsor and each member of Altimar II’s management team have entered into an agreement with Altimar II, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any founder shares and public shares held by them in connection with (i) the completion of the proposed business combination, and (ii) a shareholder vote to approve the amendments to Altimar II’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) that would modify the substance or timing of Altimar II’s obligation to provide holders of its Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with the proposed business combination or to redeem 100% of its public shares if Altimar II does not complete the initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering or during any extension period or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares. No consideration was received by the Sponsor or the members of Altimar II’s management team for their waiver of redemption rights.
Liquidation If No Initial Business Combination
Altimar II’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that it will have only 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering to consummate an initial business combination. If Altimar II has not consummated an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering, it will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a
per-share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds
 
208

Table of Contents
held in the Trust Account and not previously released to Altimar II to pay its income taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then-outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of Altimar II’s remaining shareholders and its board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to Altimar II’s warrants, which will expire and be worthless if Altimar II fails to consummate an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering. Altimar II’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association provide that, if it winds up for any other reason prior to the consummation of the initial business combination, Altimar II will follow the foregoing procedures with respect to the liquidation of the Trust Account as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, subject to applicable Cayman Islands law.
The Sponsor and each member of Altimar II’s management team have entered into an agreement with Altimar II, pursuant to which they have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any founder shares they hold if Altimar II fails to consummate an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering or during any extension period (although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if Altimar II fails to complete the initial business combination within the prescribed time frame).
The Sponsor and Altimar II’s executive officers and directors have agreed, pursuant to a written agreement with Altimar II, that they will not propose any amendment to Altimar II’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) that would modify the substance or timing of Altimar II’s obligation to provide holders of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with the initial business combination or to redeem 100% of Altimar II’s public shares if it does not complete the initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares, unless Altimar II provides its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their public shares upon approval of any such amendment at a
per-share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to Altimar II to pay its income taxes, if any, divided by the number of the then-outstanding public shares.
Altimar II expects that all costs and expenses associated with implementing its plan of dissolution, as well as payments to any creditors, will be funded from amounts remaining out of the $1,000,000 held outside the Trust Account plus up to $100,000 of funds from the Trust Account available to Altimar II to pay dissolution expenses, although Altimar II cannot assure you that there will be sufficient funds for such purpose.
If Altimar II were to expend all of the net proceeds of its initial public offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, other than the proceeds deposited in the Trust Account, and without taking into account interest, if any, earned on the Trust Account, the
per-share
redemption amount received by shareholders upon Altimar II’s dissolution would be $10.00. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could, however, become subject to the claims of Altimar II’s creditors which would have higher priority than the claims of Altimar II’s public shareholders. Altimar II cannot assure you that the actual
per-share
redemption amount received by shareholders will not be less than $10.00. While Altimar II intends to pay such amounts, if any, Altimar II cannot assure you that it will have funds sufficient to pay or provide for all creditors’ claims.
Although Altimar II will seek to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses and other entities with which it does business execute agreements with it waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of its public shareholders, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements or even if they execute such agreements that they would be prevented from bringing claims against the Trust Account including, but not limited, to fraudulent inducement, breach of
 
209

Table of Contents
fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain an advantage with respect to a claim against Altimar II’s assets, including the funds held in the Trust Account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account, Altimar II’s management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will only enter into an agreement with a third party that has not executed a waiver if management believes that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to Altimar II than any alternative. Examples of possible instances where Altimar II may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as joint book-running managers in connection with Altimar II’s initial public offering, did not execute an agreement with Altimar II waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account.
In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with Altimar II and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason. In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to Altimar II if and to the extent any claims by (A) a third party for services rendered or products sold to Altimar II (other than Altimar II’s independent registered public accounting firm), or (B) a prospective target business with which Altimar II has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amounts in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account if less than $10.00 per public share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay Altimar II’s tax obligations,
provided
that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account nor will it apply to any claims under Altimar II’s indemnity of the underwriters of its initial public offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. However, Altimar II has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has Altimar II independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and Altimar II believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of Altimar II. Therefore, Altimar II cannot assure you that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of Altimar II’s officers or directors will indemnify Altimar II for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.
In the event that the proceeds in the Trust Account are reduced below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account if less than $10.00 per public share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case, net of the amount of interest which may be withdrawn to pay Altimar II’s income tax obligations, and the Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its indemnification obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, Altimar II’s independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While Altimar II currently expects that its independent directors would take legal action on Altimar II’s behalf against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to Altimar II, it is possible that Altimar II’s independent directors in exercising their business judgment may choose not to do so in any particular instance. Accordingly, Altimar II cannot assure you that due to claims of creditors the actual value of the
per-share
redemption price will not be less than $10.00 per public share.
Altimar II will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which Altimar II does business execute agreements with it waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. The Sponsor will also not be liable as to any claims

under Altimar II’s indemnity of the underwriters of its initial public offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Altimar II has had access to up to $1,000,000 following its initial public offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants with which to pay any such potential claims (including costs and expenses incurred in connection with its liquidation, currently estimated to be no more than approximately $100,000). In the event that Altimar II liquidates and it is subsequently determined that the reserve for claims and liabilities is insufficient, shareholders who received funds from Altimar II’s Trust Account could be liable for claims made by creditors, however such liability will not be greater than the amount of funds from the Trust Account received by any such shareholder.
If Altimar II files a bankruptcy or
winding-up
petition or an involuntary bankruptcy or
winding-up
petition is filed against Altimar II that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy or insolvency law, and may be included in its bankruptcy or insolvency estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of Altimar II’s shareholders. To the extent any bankruptcy or insolvency claims deplete the Trust Account, Altimar II cannot assure you it will be able to return $10.00 per public share to its public shareholders. Additionally, if Altimar II files a bankruptcy or
winding-up
petition or an involuntary bankruptcy or
winding-up
petition is filed against it that is not dismissed, any distributions received by shareholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy or insolvency laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy or insolvency court could seek to recover some or all amounts received by Altimar II’s shareholders. Furthermore, Altimar II’s board of directors may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to Altimar II’s creditors and/or may have acted in bad faith, and thereby exposing itself and Altimar II to claims of punitive damages, by paying public shareholders from the Trust Account prior to addressing the claims of creditors. Altimar II cannot assure you that claims will not be brought against Altimar II for these reasons.
Altimar II’s public shareholders will be entitled to receive funds from the Trust Account only (i) in the event of the redemption of Altimar II’s public shares if it does not complete the initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering, (ii) in connection with a shareholder vote to amend Altimar II’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to provide holders of its Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with the initial business combination or to redeem 100% of its public shares if it does not complete the initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of Altimar II’s Class A ordinary shares, or (iii) if they redeem their respective shares for cash upon the completion of the initial business combination. Public shareholders who redeem their Class A ordinary shares in connection with a shareholder vote described in clause (ii) in the preceding sentence shall not be entitled to funds from the Trust Account upon the subsequent completion of an initial business combination or liquidation if Altimar II has not consummated an initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of its initial public offering, with respect to such Class A ordinary shares so redeemed. In no other circumstances will a shareholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the Trust Account. In connection with the proposed business combination, a shareholder’s voting alone will not result in a shareholder’s redeeming its shares to Altimar II for an applicable pro rata share of the Trust Account. Such shareholder must have also exercised its redemption rights described above.
Facilities
Altimar II currently maintains its executive offices at 40 West 57th Street, 33rd Floor, New York, NY 10019. The cost for Altimar II’s use of this space is included in the $10,000 per month fee it will pay to an affiliate of the Sponsor for office space, administrative and support services. Altimar II considers its current office space adequate for its current operations.
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, the principal executive offices of Fathom will be those at 1050 Walnut Ridge Dr., Hartland, Wisconsin 53029, at which time nothing more will be paid to such affiliate of the Sponsor.

Table of Contents
Employees
Altimar II currently has two executive officers. These individuals are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to Altimar II’s matters but they intend to devote as much of their time as they deem necessary to Altimar II’s affairs until it has completed the initial business combination. The amount of time they will devote in any time period will vary based on the stage of the business combination process Altimar II is in. Altimar II does not intend to have any full time employees prior to the completion of the initial business combination.
Periodic Reporting and Financial Information
Altimar II’s units, Class A ordinary shares and warrants are registered under the Exchange Act, and Altimar II has reporting obligations, including the requirement that it file annual, quarterly and current reports with the SEC. In accordance with the requirements of the Exchange Act, Altimar II’s annual reports contain financial statements audited and reported on by its independent registered public accountants.
Altimar II will be required to evaluate its internal control procedures for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 as required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Only in the event that Altimar II is deemed to be a large accelerated filer or an accelerated filer and no longer qualifies as an emerging growth company, will Altimar II not be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on its internal control over financial reporting.
Altimar II is a Cayman Islands exempted company. Exempted companies are Cayman Islands companies conducting business mainly outside the Cayman Islands and, as such, are exempted from complying with certain provisions of the Cayman Islands Companies Act. As an exempted company, Altimar II has applied for and received a tax exemption undertaking from the Cayman Islands government that, in accordance with Section 6 of the Tax Concessions Act (2018 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, for a period of 20 years from the date of the undertaking, no law which is enacted in the Cayman Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations will apply to Altimar II or its operations and, in addition, that no tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations or which is in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax will be payable (i) on or in respect of Altimar II’s shares, debentures or other obligations or (ii) by way of the withholding in whole or in part of a payment of dividend or other distribution of income or capital by Altimar II to its shareholders or a payment of principal or interest or other sums due under a debenture or other obligation of Altimar II.
Altimar II is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act. As such, Altimar II is eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not “emerging growth companies” including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in Altimar II’s periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a
non-binding
advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find Altimar II’s securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for Altimar II’s securities and the prices of its securities may be more volatile.
In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. Altimar II intends to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.
Altimar II will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of Altimar II’s initial public offering, (b) in which Altimar II
 
212

has total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) in which Altimar II is deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of its Class A ordinary shares that are held by
non-affiliates
exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30, and (2) the date on which Altimar II has issued more than $1.0 billion in
non-convertible
debt securities during the prior three-year period.
Additionally, Altimar II is a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation
S-K.
Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. Altimar II will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the market value of its ordinary shares held by
non-affiliates
exceeds $250 million as of the prior June 30, or (2) its annual revenues exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of its ordinary shares held by
non-affiliates

low-
to
mid-volume
manufacturing needs.
Industry Opportunities
Overall, manufacturing is a very large but highly fragmented market undergoing disruptive changes driven by rapid advances in how products are being designed and manufactured enabled by the adoption of Industry 4.0 practices.
The overall manufacturing market is one of the largest industries in the world, using industrial design processes to turn raw materials into components and finished goods ranging from aircraft to microelectronics. Taking a new product from customer requirements through a design concept, the product development cycle and eventually to manufacture is a complex, costly and time-consuming process. Product development and manufacturing processes are undergoing disruptive changes driven by Industry 4.0 practices, the next wave of the Industrial Revolution.
According to IBIS World, a research firm, there are over 570,000 manufacturing businesses in the US employing over 11.3 million employees. The manufacturing industry is highly fragmented with over 75% of these manufacturing businesses employing less than 20 people, according to a study by SCORE, a research firm. The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that there are approximately 2.7 million engineers and technicians with about 75% employed in the manufacturing, professional, scientific, technical, and government sectors.
Within the overall manufacturing market, the highly fragmented
low-
to
mid-
volume precision sheet metal fabrication, injection molding, CNC machining, and additive manufacturing market is estimated to be approximately $25 billion.
Shorter product life cycles and demanding customer requirements are changing how companies develop and manufacture new products.
Over the past decade, R&D spending in the manufacturing sector has increased from $445 billion in 2010 to an expected $600+ billion in 2021. Over this period, new products have contributed a growing share of total corporate revenue, requiring an ever-increasing speed and frequency of new product launches. In 2010, 220,000 new products were launched, while in 2021 355,000 new product launches are projected. These trends are
 
220

pushing companies to innovate faster by accelerating product development cycles to increase their frequency of product launches. Companies must be very agile to be successful.
Product designs are also becoming more complex as companies strive to launch more differentiated and higher functioning products and push manufacturing constraints using increasingly advanced manufacturing processes. As their product portfolio becomes more diverse and customized, companies must manage their manufacturing supply chain to be more localized and
on-demand.
By digitizing their product lifecycle companies can simplify and consolidate their supply chain.
Deployment of maturing Industry 4.0 practices shortens product
time-to-market
and provides agility but requires companies to seek out advanced manufacturing partners.
Industry 4.0 is primarily driven by the digitization of manufacturing including the commercialization of additive manufacturing complemented by advanced traditional manufacturing technologies. Advancements in software tools and the use of artificial intelligence/machine learning techniques help to digitize the entire product development and manufacturing lifecycle. The digitization of manufacturing is changing how new products are designed, manufactured and serviced, generating a large need for more
on-demand
manufacturing at the same time.
Additive manufacturing, complemented by key advanced traditional manufacturing technologies, offers greater agility and flexibility than traditional manufacturing technologies. These technologies are capable of meeting the rigorous demands of corporate customers in the aerospace, automotive, industrial, medical and consumer sectors where products are highly engineered with precise specifications.
On-demand
manufacturing technologies allow custom production of parts in
low-
to
mid-
volume quantities with condensed turnaround times. As summarized below, these technologies are highly flexible and adaptive:
 
   
Additive manufacturing can produce highly complex parts using printed materials which would otherwise be extremely difficult to produce via traditional methods.
 
   
CNC machining is a subtractive manufacturing process that utilizes a variety of precision computer guided tools. This process yields products with precision and repeatability, while offering high-quality surface finish optionality.
 
   
Injection molding offers the ability to rapidly produce complex parts using molten material, formed in molds. This process delivers consistency, quality, and cost-effectiveness for larger-scale production.
 
   
Precision sheet metal fabrication involves cutting and bending of metal sheets, resulting in parts which are highly durable. Lower production expenses make this a highly attractive fabrication process for
low-volume
jobs with fewer timing constraints.
Technological advancements are expected to drive continued growth in
on-demand
digital manufacturing technologies.
 
   
As advances in additive manufacturing make it better suited for higher-volume applications, it is expected to take share from traditional manufacturing processes. Additive manufacturing offers the benefits of speed, part consolidation, weight reduction, and the ability to create complex geometries.
 
   
CNC machining has exhibited rapid technological advances over the past five to ten years and has gained significant share as a result. CNC workflow improvements have streamlined the process, reducing costs.
 
   
While injection molding production serves a mature market, advances in fast-turnaround applications are driving growth which should not be overlooked.
 
   
Precision sheet metal fabrication is projected to grow at an accelerated rate between 2020 and 2025.
 
221

These technologies have driven significant advancements, improving speed, volumes, material capabilities, and the overall customer experience. Companies leveraging these advanced technologies, particularly the largest and most innovative, are likely to see significant improvements in efficiencies across their entire manufacturing supply chain. In search of further efficiencies, large enterprise companies are regionalizing and shortening their supply chain and consolidating their supplier partners
These same companies are working to take advantage of Industry 4.0 technologies and advancement in the hybridized model of additive manufacturing and advance traditional manufacturing technologies to optimize new product development and manufacturing. Through technological advances, additive manufacturing and other traditional processes are expected to become more accessible, enabling
in-house
adoption. However,
in-house
production lines are often underutilized, inefficient, and are not cost effective when used solely for internal needs.
In-house
manufacturing options often lack the scale and capabilities to deliver
end-to-end
solutions required by corporate customers.
Within the $25 billion
low-
to
mid-
volume market for precision sheet metal fabrication, injection molding, CNC machining, and additive manufacturing, we estimate that approximately 40% is handled
in-house,
55%+ is serviced by regional design services bureaus, and the remaining ~5% is captured by legacy digital manufacturers.
There are thousands of small regional design services bureaus nationwide, most of which possess specialized and limited-service offerings. Some of these regional bureaus serve large enterprise companies but are constrained by inability to scale to meet the requirements of these demanding customers along with the scarcity of skilled labor and limited capacity. Legacy
on-demand
digital manufacturers are focused on prosumers and we believe their focus on automation often compromises the flexibility required to meet the evolving needs of corporate customers. We also believe that these legacy digital manufacturers are best-suited for simple, template-based part production and that their
low-touch
business model typically is predicated on serving thousands of individual product developers.
On-demand
digital manufacturing brokers have limited
in-house
production and must therefore outsource much of their own production needs, limiting oversight of the production process and hindering quality control and the ability to deliver complex parts. Involving multiple manufacturing suppliers also increases customer concerns relating to the safeguarding of intellectual property.
We believe that large enterprise companies, which represent
50-60%
of the outsourced portion of this $25 billion
low-
to
mid-volume
manufacturing market, are seeking collaborative, long-term partnerships with their key manufacturing suppliers, and in particular a partner that can advance Industry 4.0 practices to scale with them and ultimately allow them to simplify and shorten their supply chain. Fathom OpCo’s value proposition and strategic partnership approach positions the Company to continue taking share from regional design bureaus and legacy digital manufacturers in the $25 billion
low-
to
mid-volume
manufacturing market.
Business Strengths and Strategies
Our key competitive strengths
We enable some of the world’s largest and most innovative companies to accelerate new product development and shorten time to market from months to weeks (or even days). We believe our position as a leading
on-demand
digital manufacturing platform purpose-built to serve the product development prototyping and
low-
to
mid-volume
production needs of the largest and most innovative companies, coupled with the following competitive strengths, will allow us to maintain and extend our market leading position.
 
   
Adaptable, scalable platform with nationwide reach.
Our platform is not reliant on any individual manufacturing technology, hardware provider, or materials supplier. Our agile business model allows us to respond to evolving customer needs through seamless integration of new manufacturing technologies, software capabilities, and materials. We have built a footprint of 12 manufacturing locations that enables us to produce and deliver parts to our customers nationwide, often in as a little as 24 hours. We expect to continue to benefit from continued innovation in additive and traditional manufacturing, and our established customer relationships which provide us differentiated insights into demand for new technologies, informing investments which expand our capabilities.
 
222

   
Broad suite of manufacturing processes, deep technical expertise, and proprietary software platform.
Our platform combines multiple manufacturing processes, dedicated engineering support, and purpose-built proprietary software to deliver a holistic solution which enhances efficiency for our customers. Our business is designed with the flexibility to accommodate complex designs and provide enterprise-grade, quick-turn manufacturing services for high-precision, high-quality parts at scale. Our broad set of manufacturing capabilities eliminates the need for customers to source parts across many single-process competitors or adhere to design constraints imposed by competing national manufacturing platforms and brokerages. This enables our customers to iterate designs faster and reduce time to market.
 
   
Strong customer relationships across diverse
end-markets.
Our base of 3,000 active customers include many of the largest and most innovative companies in the world, spanning a diverse range of industries. Our strong value proposition is demonstrated through our 91% customer retention rate for the twelve months ended March 31, 2021, and our performance is not reliant on any single customer; in 2020, our largest customer comprised less than 6% of revenue. We have a differentiated ability to establish and cultivate revenue-generating relationships with multiple contacts across individual customers’ R&D and engineering organizations, leaving us increasingly entrenched as their
on-demand
manufacturing partner of choice.
 
   
Highly experienced management team and Board of Directors.
Our leadership team combines a deep additive and advanced manufacturing pedigree with decades of public market experience and a track record of scaling high-growth companies. We believe we have assembled a differentiated management team and Board of Directors who are particularly well-equipped to successfully lead our Company and achieve our strategic goals.
Our Strategy for Growth
 
   
Increased penetration of our existing enterprise-level corporate customer base and expansion through new enterprise-level corporate customers.
Our focus has historically been on enterprise-level corporate customers with wide-ranging, complex research and development needs. Our value proposition resonates with these customers’ need for technology-agnostic,
hands-on,
quick-turn prototyping of
low-to-mid
volume, high-value parts. We believe we can continue to grow by maintaining our strategy of expanding relationships across departments within existing corporate customers, as well as building relationships with new corporate customers through our differentiated capabilities.
 
   
Expanded offering of additive manufacturing capabilities.
We provide comprehensive services that offer advanced technologies and processes tailored to our customer needs. To maintain our differentiated and market-leading suite of capabilities, we expect we will continue to integrate new capabilities into our platform. We plan to make informed investments in new technologies, supported by our robust, ongoing dialogue with customers and deep industry expertise.
 
   
Capitalizing on outsourcing trends in prototyping and
low-
to
mid-volume
manufacturing.
It has become increasingly expensive and challenging for companies to maintain the materials, equipment, and skilled labor necessary to keep pace with the rate of innovation in today’s market. Additionally, fluctuations in companies’ internal R&D cycles make it less efficient to build and fund a full suite of
in-house
capabilities. Based on current industry trends, we expect companies to further rely on outsourced providers for their prototyping and
low-
to
mid-volume
manufacturing. We believe we are well-positioned to capture market share as a result of this trend due to our comprehensive capabilities and corporate focus.
 
   
Further enhancement of our software and digital capabilities.
We are continuously working to expand our software platform’s capabilities and believe this offering is pivotal in driving future growth. Our main areas of focus are: (i) further digitization of our offering through development of an
internet-of-things
enabled product suite, (ii) continued improvement of turnaround times and
 
223

 
production efficiency achieved by leveraging our data analytics and artificial intelligence capabilities, (iii) enhancing the customer experience through greater integration of our platform into our customers’ PLM, MES and ERP systems, and (iv) reduction of our customers’ need for
on-site
inventory through the establishment of digitized supply chain management systems.
 
   
Continued pursuit of strategic
add-on
acquisitions.
Targeted acquisitions and integrations of complimentary digital manufacturing companies into our business represent an attractive growth opportunity, given our successful track record and the highly fragmented nature of our industry. Since 2018, we have completed 13 acquisitions (with four completed in 2021), transforming Fathom OpCo into a leading
on-demand
digital manufacturing company with a highly scalable breadth of manufacturing capabilities. We have optimized our platform to streamline the integration of new companies into the Fathom OpCo ecosystem, allowing us to deploy our proprietary playbook and realize synergies.
Sales and Marketing
Our sales and marketing teams are foundational to acquiring new corporate customers and maintaining our existing relationships. Given the multiple purchasing points of contact we regularly encounter within our individual customer accounts, we approach sales relationships through a “land and expand” model. Once we have established an existing relationship, we expand our customer points of contact using our unique digital marketing and commercial strategy within an account by delivering excellent project outcomes, resulting in organic
word-of-mouth
recommendations within those organizations. This “land and expand” strategy has been an effective model, allowing us to leverage initial customer acquisition costs within these accounts and delivering profitable growth.
We have built a successful enterprise selling team located throughout the US that is focused on acquiring and growing corporate accounts. We also have an internal business development sales team that works to nurture prospect accounts and turn them into customers. Our sales team works closely with our software platform and quoting team to provide our customers the best solution for the outcome they are looking to achieve by leveraging our technology agnostic approach. If customers desire design or manufacturing input, we have a team of sales engineers who have extensive expertise to assist customers in solving for their key project criteria (e.g., budget, performance requirements, timelines, etc.). We offer customers the technologies and experience to deliver within some of the most challenging and complex project constraints.
Our proprietary manufacturing enablement software platform, alongside our commercial strategy, gives us a scalable lever with our unique digital marketing strategy to acquire new customers and contacts within existing customers, which supports our “land and expand” model.
Our automated software platform gives customers access to Fathom OpCo’s comprehensive capabilities and experts enabling an impactful and accelerated solution. We have an industry-leading
30-second
injection molding automated quotation solution, as well as instant quoting capabilities for additive manufacturing. Competing systems typically take hours to days, on average, to provide similar quotes for injection molding. Whether the design submitted is best suited for injection molding or a different manufacturing technology, our platform routes the design to the appropriate team for execution.
Given the breadth of technologies within the Fathom OpCo platform, we provide our customers with comfort that our engineering advice is aligned with the most effective solution that best meets their product needs, rather than a customer having to sacrifice their design to match our capabilities. Additionally, our wide array of manufacturing offerings allows our customers to consolidate their supply chains from many single-capability suppliers to one point of contact who can then monitor quality and timing across all facets of the supply chain. Our sales and marketing model, paired with these differentiators, creates sticky customer relationships.

ALTIMAR II’S MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and related notes of Altimar II included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. This discussion contains forward-looking statements reflecting Altimar II’s current expectations, estimates and assumptions concerning events and financial trends that may affect Altimar II’s future operating results or financial position. Actual results and timing of events may differ materially from those contained in these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including those discussed in the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”
Overview
We are a blank check company incorporated in the Cayman Islands on December 7, 2020 formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities. We intend to effectuate our Business Combination using cash derived from the proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, our share capital, debt or a combination of cash, share capital and debt.
We expect to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of an initial business combination . We cannot assure you that our plans to complete an initial business combination, including the Business Combination with Fathom OpCo, will be successful.
Results of Operations
We have neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues through June 30, 2021. All activity for the period from December 7, 2020 (inception) through June 30, 2021 were organizational activities, those necessary to prepare for the Initial Public Offering as described below and, subsequent to the closing of the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. We do not expect to generate any operating revenues until after the completion of our Business Combination. We generate
non-operating
income in the form of interest income on investments held in the Trust Account. We incur expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses.
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, we had a net income of $13,878,688, which consists of the change in the fair value of warrant liability of $12,541,736, operating income of $1,331,651, and interest income on investments held in the Trust Account of $5,301.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, we had a net loss of $1,846,965, which consists of operating costs of $570,488, transaction costs allocated to the Warrants of $755,071 and an increase in the fair value of warrant liability of $527,802, offset by interest income on investments held in the Trust Account of $6,396.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
On February 9, 2021, we consummated the Initial Public Offering of 34,500,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $345,000,000 as described in Note 3 to the condensed financial statements. Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, we consummated the sale of 9,900,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement transaction to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds of $9,900,000 as described in Note 4 to the condensed financial statements.
Following the Initial Public Offering, the full exercise of the over-allotment option and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, a total of $345,000,000 was placed in the Trust Account. We incurred $19,490,958 in costs related to the Initial Public Offering, consisting of $6,900,000 of underwriting fees, $12,075,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $515,958 of other offering costs.

Table of Contents
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, cash used in operating activities was $1,232,131. Net loss of $1,846,965 was affected by an increase in the fair value of warrant liability of $527,802, transaction costs allocated to the Warrants of $755,071 and interest earned on investments held in the Trust Account of $6,396. Changes in operating assets and liabilities provided $(661,643) of cash for operating activities.
As of June 30, 2021, we had investments held in the Trust Account of $345,006,396 (including $6,396 of interest income) consisting of U.S. Treasury Bills with a maturity of 185 days or less. We may withdraw interest from the Trust Account to pay taxes, if any. We intend to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less income taxes payable), to complete our Business Combination. To the extent that our share capital or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete our Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue our growth strategies.
As of June 30, 2021, we had cash of $1,525,518 held outside of the Trust Account. We intend to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses and structure, negotiate and complete a Combination our initial business combination.
In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with our initial business combination, the Sponsor, or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s executive officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (such funds, “Working Capital Loans”). If we complete an initial business combination, we would repay such Working Capital Loans. In the event that our business combination does not close, we may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such Working Capital Loans but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $2,000,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant, at the option of the lender. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrant.
We do not believe we will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating our business. However, if our estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking
in-depth
due diligence and negotiating our initial business combination is less than the actual amount necessary to do so, we may have insufficient funds available to operate our business prior to our initial business combination. Moreover, we may need to obtain additional financing either to complete our initial business combination or because we become obligated to redeem a significant number of the Class A Ordinary Shares upon consummation of our initial business combination, in which case we may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such initial business combination.
Following the completion of the Business Combination, Fathom will be obligated to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. The actual timing and amount of any payments that may be made under the Tax Receivable Agreement are unknown at this time and will vary based on a number of factors, many of which are outside of Fathom’s control. For more information about these factors, see “THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AGREEMENT — Related Agreements — Tax Receivable Agreement.” However, Fathom expects that the payments that it will be required to make to in connection with the Tax Receivable Agreement will be substantial. Any payments made by Fathom under the Tax Receivable Agreement will generally reduce the amount of cash flow that might have otherwise been available to Fathom. To the extent Fathom OpCo has available cash and subject to the terms of any current or future debt or other agreements, the Fathom Operating Agreement will require Fathom OpCo to make pro rata cash distributions to holders of New Fathom Units, including Fathom, in an amount sufficient to allow Fathom to pay its taxes and to make payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement. Fathom generally expects Fathom OpCo to fund such distributions out of available cash.
 
231

Table of Contents
However, except limited circumstances, Fathom may elect to defer payments due under the Tax Receivable Agreement if it does not have available cash to satisfy its payment obligations under the Tax Receivable Agreement or if its contractual obligations limit its ability to make these payments. Any such deferred payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement generally will accrue interest at the rate provided for in the Tax Receivable Agreement, and such interest may significantly exceed Fathom’s other costs of capital. In certain circumstances (including an early termination of the Tax Receivable Agreement due to a change of control or otherwise), payments under the Tax Receivable Agreement may be accelerated and/or significantly exceed the actual benefits, if any, Fathom realizes in respect of the tax attributes subject to the Tax Receivable Agreement. In the case of such an acceleration in connection with a change of control, where applicable, Fathom generally expects the accelerated payments due under the Tax Receivable Agreement to be funded out of the proceeds of the change of control transaction giving rise to such acceleration, which could have a significant impact on our ability to consummate a change of control or the amount of proceeds received by our shareholders in connection with a change of control. However, Fathom may be required to fund such payment from other sources, and as a result, any early termination of the Tax Receivable Agreement could have a substantial negative impact on our liquidity or financial condition.
Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
We had no obligations, assets or liabilities, which would be considered
off-balance
sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2021. We do not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating
off-balance
sheet arrangements. We have not entered into any
off-balance
sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt or commitments of other entities or purchased any
non-financial
assets.
Contractual Obligations
We do not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a sum of $10,000 per month for office space and secretarial and administrative services. We began incurring these fees on February 4, 2021 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of our initial business combination and our liquidation.
The underwriters are entitled to a deferred underwriting fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $12,075,000 in the aggregate. The deferred underwriting fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that we complete an initial business combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
Critical Accounting Policies
The preparation of condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with GAAP requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. We have identified the critical accounting policies set forth below.
Warrant Liability
We account for the Warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the Warrants’ specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in the FASB ASC Topic 480, “
Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity
,” and ASC Topic 815, “
Derivatives and Hedging
.” The assessment considers whether the Warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC Topic 480, whether
 
232

Table of Contents
Warrants meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC Topic 480 and whether the Warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC Topic 815, including whether the Warrants are indexed to the Class A Ordinary Shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of issuance of the Warrants and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the Warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified Warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the Warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional
paid-in
capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified Warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the Warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a
non-cash
gain or loss on the statements of operations. The fair value of the Public Warrants was determined using the closing price of the Public Warrants, and the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation approach.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
We account for the Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in ASC Topic 480, “
Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity
.” The Class A Ordinary Shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares (including Class A Ordinary Shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A Ordinary Shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Class A Ordinary Shares feature certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, the Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of our condensed balance sheets.
Net Income (Loss) Per Ordinary Share
We apply the
two-class
method in calculating net income (loss) per ordinary share. Net income per ordinary share, basic and diluted, for redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares is calculated by dividing the interest income earned on the Trust Account, by the weighted average number of redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding since original issuance. Net income (loss) per share, basic and diluted, for Class B Ordinary Shares is calculated by dividing the net income (loss), adjusted for income attributable to redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares, by the weighted average number of Class B Ordinary Shares outstanding for the period.
Recent Accounting Standards
In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No.
2020-6, “Debt—Debt
with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic
470-20)”
and “
Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic
815-40):
Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity
,” which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. ASU
2020-6
removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. ASU
2020-6
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU
2020-6
effective as of January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU
2020-6
did not have an impact on our financial statements.
Our management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on our condensed financial statements.

FATHOM OPCO’s MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with Fathom OpCo’s financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward- looking statements as a result of various factors, including those set forth under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.
Overview
Fathom Holdco, LLC (“Fathom OpCo”) was formed in Delaware in 2021. However, our roots stretch back over 35 years with the founding of several of our subsidiaries. The terms “Fathom OpCo,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” as used herein refer to the business and operations of Fathom OpCo and its subsidiaries.
We are a leading national
on-demand
digital manufacturing platform at the forefront of the Industry 4.0 revolution. Industry 4.0 utilizes
e-commerce,
automation, and data sharing in a cyber-physical system to communicate and cooperate in the manufacturing process over the Internet of Things (IoT). Using our expansive manufacturing footprint and extensive expertise in both additive and traditional manufacturing, we provide comprehensive product development and
on-demand
manufacturing services to many of the largest and most innovative companies in the world. Our unified suite of manufacturing technologies, processes, and proprietary software enables us to deliver hybridized solutions that meet the specific needs of our customers, empowering them to tackle complex manufacturing problems and accelerate product development cycles.
Our differentiated strategy focuses on speed, problem solving, adaptive technical responsiveness, and manufacturing to meet customers’ design intent, which allows our customers to iterate faster, often shortening their product development and production cycles from months to days.
We seamlessly blend
in-house
capabilities consisting of plastic and metal additive technologies, injection molding and tooling, computer numerical control (“CNC”) machining, and precision sheet metal fabrication. We operate over 530 advanced manufacturing systems across 25 unique manufacturing processes and a 450,000 sq. ft. manufacturing footprint, spanning 12 facilities located primarily within the United States. We believe we are positioned to serve the largest geographic markets in which our customers are located and enable cost effective and rapid turnaround times for our customers. Our scale and the breadth of offerings allow our customers to consolidate their supply chain and product development needs through the ability to source through a single manufacturing supplier. Fathom’s manufacturing technologies and capacity are further extended through the utilization of a selected group of highly qualified suppliers that specialize in injection molding and tooling and CNC machining.
We have experienced significant growth since inception both organically and through our successful and proven acquisition playbook, which is enabled by our proprietary software platform that allows for a streamlined integration of acquired companies. Over the past three years, we have successfully completed 13 acquisitions to bolster our operations and offerings. Fathom started as Midwest Composite Technologies, LLC (“MCT”), a leader in prototyping and
low-volume
services. Founded in 1984, MCT specialized in model making, industrial design, and rapid prototyping. Today, MCT serves companies through a variety of
in-house
additive manufacturing technologies, including 3D printing and processing, CNC machining, injection molding, and industrial design capabilities. In September 2019, we acquired Kemeera, LLC d/b/a FATHOM (“FATHOM”) to expand our additive, CNC machining injection molding, and development and engineering services, as well as bring urethane casting capabilities. In December 2019, we acquired ICOMold, LLC (“ICOMold”) to expand our injection molding capabilities and significantly enhance our customer experience by bringing
in-house
an interactive, automated quotation system capable of providing feedback in 30 seconds with an intuitive, customer-
 
234

Table of Contents
facing project management portal, which we have continued to develop and enhance. Our acquisition of ICOMold also expanded our capabilities into China. In July 2020, we acquired Incodema, LLC (“Incodema”) and Newchem, LLC (“Newchem”) to expand our
in-house
manufacturing processes to include precision sheet metal engineering solutions, including a broad array of sheet metal cutting and forming solutions such as laser cutting, micro waterjet, specialty stamping, and photochemical etching, among others, for quick and complex, tight tolerance parts. In August 2020, we acquired GPI Prototype & Manufacturing Services, LLC (“GPI”) to expand our additive manufacturing capabilities. GPI was one of the first metal additive manufacturing service providers in the United States, bringing metallurgical expertise
in-house
and enabling the Company to produce metal parts with complex geometries for
on-demand
manufacturing applications. In December 2020, we acquired Dahlquist Machine, LLC (“Dahlquist”) to expand our precision machining capabilities with
state-of-the-art
CNC mills and lathes for high-speed precision machining of light metals, aluminum, and plastics. In December 2020, we also acquired Majestic Metals, LLC, (“Majestic Metals”) further expanding our precision sheet metal fabrication capabilities. Further, in December 2020, we acquired Mark Two Engineering, LLC (“Mark Two”) expanding our precision machining services and footprint in the medical device industry. In February 2021, we acquired Summit Tooling, Inc. and Summit Plastics LLC, (collectively, “Summit”) further expanding our plastic injection mold manufacturing capabilities. In April 2021, we acquired Centex Machine and Welding Inc. (“Centex”) and Laser Manufacturing, Inc. “(Laser) to expand our high-precision manufacturing services specializing in CNC Machining and medical device manufacturing. In April 2021, we also acquired Sureshot Precision LLC d/b/a Micropulse West (“Micropulse West”) expanding our Electrical Discharge Machine (“EDM”) services, and CNC and manual machining capabilities. Further, in April 2021, we acquired Precision Process LLC specializing in CNC machining, engineering support, and EDM services.
We continue to invest significantly in the enhancement and expansion of our technologies, processes, and capabilities with the aim of better serving the needs of a broader set of customers and end-markets. As a result of our efforts described above, we have developed a loyal base of approximately 3,000 customers, including many of the most innovative companies in the world. Our customers span across a diverse range of end-markets, including, but not limited to, the aerospace, defense, technology, medical, automotive, and IoT sectors. This diverse customer base has allowed for no single customer to represent more than 4.0% and 6.4% of our revenue in 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 6.2% and 5.3% of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Our overall customer retention rate is 91%, with retained customers representing 86% and 88% of our revenue in 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 87% and 87% of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
We believe the market for our
on-demand
digital manufacturing services across manufacturing applications is largely unsaturated as companies continue to realize the efficiency and effectiveness of our rapid quotation system and 3D CAD driven manufacturing processes. Our market is projected to grow from $25 billion in 2020 to $33 billion in 2025, fueled by growth in demand for additive manufacturing and continuation of the trend of customers increasingly outsourcing their prototyping and
low-to-medium
volume production needs. We believe our position as the only
on-demand
digital manufacturing platform purpose-built to serve the rapid prototyping and
low-to-medium
volume production needs of the largest and most innovative companies, coupled with our competitive strengths, will allow us to maintain and extend our market leading position.
Our revenues were $61.3 million and $20.6 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $66.4 million and $24.2 million for the six months ended June 20, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Our operating expenses were $27.0 million and $10.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $24.7 and 10.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. Our recent growth in revenue has been accompanied by increased cost of revenue and operating expenses. We expect to increase investment in our operations to support anticipated future growth as discussed more fully below.
Going Concern
On April 30, 2021, the Company completed a financing transaction whereby it issued a $172 million term loan due April 2022 (the “2021 Term Loan”) in order to finance the acquisitions of Centex Machine and
 
235

Table of Contents
Welding, Inc. (“Centex”), Laser Manufacturing, Inc. (“Laser”), Sureshot Precision, LLC d/b/a Micropulse West (“Micropulse West”), and Precision Process Corporation (“PPC”), as well as to refinance the Company’s existing debt, as described in Note 8 —
Long-Term Debt
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 8 —
Debt
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the April 30, 2021 financing transaction.
As the Company does not have sufficient cash on hand and cash flow from operations to repay the 2021 Term Loan, the maturity of the 2021 Term Loan raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within the next twelve months. If we are unable to repay, refinance or restructure our 2021 Term Loan, our assets may not be sufficient to repay in full the amounts owed.
To address the upcoming maturity of the 2021 Term Loan, the Company has entered into a new credit facility with its existing creditors (the “New Credit Agreement”). The New Credit Agreement includes a $50 million revolving credit facility and $125 million term loan, and matures in 2026. The proceeds from these loans will be used to repay the 2021 Term Loan. Upon the closing of the Business Combination, which is expected to satisfy the requirements of a SPAC Transaction (as defined below), the Company intends to use proceeds from borrowings under the New Credit Agreement to repay in full the 2021 Term Loan.
The funding of the New Credit Agreement is contingent on the Company closing a definitive business combination with a publicly traded Special Purpose Acquisition Company (“SPAC”) before April 9, 2022 (the “SPAC Transaction”). In addition, the cash proceeds of such SPAC Transaction must be at least $313 million, or a lesser amount if mutually agreed by the Company and the SPAC. If the SPAC Transaction is not completed prior to April 9, 2022, the Company will not receive any funds nor incur any indebtedness from the New Credit Agreement. Given the SPAC Transaction will be subject to regulatory and market conditions, as well as approval by a SPAC’s shareholders, and the SPAC securing adequate financing, it is not within the Company’s control and therefore cannot be deemed probable. As a result, the Company has concluded that management’s plans described above do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months.
The accompanying financial statements of Fathom OpCo do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes that Fathom OpCo will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.
Key Factors Affecting Our Results
Our financial position and results of operations depend to a significant extent on the following actors:
Industry Opportunity and Competitive Landscape
As discussed above, the market in which we operate is projected to grow from $25 billion in 2020 to $33 billion in 2025, fueled by growth in demand for additive manufacturing and continuing trends in customer outsourcing of production needs. We operate in a large, fragmented, and competitive industry, competing for customers with a range of digital manufacturers, digital manufacturing brokers, and regional design bureaus. We believe we are uniquely positioned as the only full-service outsourced solution built specifically to cater to the manufacturing needs of enterprise-level corporate customers. In particular, we believe we compare favorably to other industry participants on the basis of the following competitive factors:
 
   
Fathom OpCo owns a wide breadth of advanced manufacturing processes, including additive 2.0 and emerging technologies
 
   
We have a proven track record of serving blue-chip, enterprise-level corporate customers

We offer our clients turnaround times in as little as
24-hours,
nationwide
 
   
Our unified digital customer experience supplemented by with embedded support teams
 
   
Fathom OpCo provides the industry’s only team of dedicated customer-facing engineers, unlocking the broadest parts envelope and providing customers with high-value customized parts
 
   
Our list of certifications validates our capabilities and precision (tight tolerances, handling of sensitive client data, etc.)
 
   
We possess a wealth of material expertise, technical design capabilities, and engineering resources which we leverage to deliver superior customer results regardless of manufacturing process and production material
 
   
Our successful and proven acquisition integration playbook for strategic growth opportunities
Customer Product Life Cycle and Connectivity
We believe that a number of trends affecting our industry have affected our results of operations and may continue to do so. For example, we believe that many of our target customers are facing three mega trends which are disrupting long-term product growth models including (i) increased pressure to shorten product life-cycles, (ii) manufactured parts
on-demand,
and (iii) expectation to deliver products that are personalized and customized to unique customer specifications. We believe we continue to be well positioned to benefit from these trends given our proprietary technology alignment with Industry 4.0 trends that enables us to automate and integrate processes involved in manufacturing custom parts. The
COVID-19
pandemic has also impacted the manufacturing environment. For example, the pandemic accelerated the digitization of manufacturing as companies pivoted to a work-from-home and socially-distanced manufacturing plant environment. As a result, the adoption of
e-commerce
was accelerated, which allows opportunity for us to provide valuable solutions to manufacturers looking to build resiliency in their supply chains through fast,
on-demand
manufacturers. While our business may be positively affected by these trends, our results may also be favorably or unfavorably impacted by other trends that affect product developer and engineer orders for custom parts in low volumes, including, among others, economic conditions, changes in product developer and engineer preferences or needs, developments in our industry and among our competitors, and developments in our customers’ industries. For a more complete discussion of the risks facing our business, see “Risk Factors” in this proxy statement/prospectus.
Manufacturing Facilities and Capacity
We believe our combined facilities are adequate for our development and production needs in the near future. Should we need to add space or transition into new facilities, we believe we have the ability to expand our footprint on commercially reasonable terms.
Impacts of the
COVID-19
pandemic
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease caused by a new coronavirus as a “pandemic.” First identified in late 2019 and now known as
COVID-19,
the outbreak has impacted millions of individuals worldwide. As of the date of issuance of the Consolidated Financial Statements and Interim Consolidated Financial Statements, our operations have not been significantly impacted, but we continue to monitor the situation. No impairments were recorded as of the consolidated balance sheet date, as no triggering events or changes in circumstances had occurred as of
year-end;
however, due to uncertainty surrounding the situation, and specifically as it pertains to the current global supply chain disruptions, management’s judgment regarding this could change in the future. In addition, while our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition were not significantly impacted, the extent of any future impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time. The health and well-being of our employees is critical to our ongoing ability to operate and serve our customers. We are committed to ensuring the safety and well-being of our employees
 
237

across each location and job function, which includes providing broad benefits to support their health and wellness needs. In order to address the challenges posed by
COVID-19,
we implemented a number of measures across our locations to ensure maximum protection for our employees and their families, including allowing remote work arrangements where possible. We continue to place the utmost importance on complying with governmental regulations and health authority guidance to ensure that the appropriate steps are taken to protect the well-being of all people engaged with our business.
Non-GAAP
Information
This proxy statement/prospectus includes Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA, which are
non-GAAP
performance measures that we use to supplement our results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We believe Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA are useful in evaluating our operating performance, as they are similar to measures reported by our public competitors and are regularly used by security analysts, institutional investors and other interested parties in analyzing operating performance and prospects. Adjusted EBITDA and Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA are not intended to be substitutes for any U.S. GAAP financial measure and, as calculated, may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of performance of other companies in other industries or within the same industry.
During 2019 and 2020 we completed the acquisitions of FATHOM, ICO Mold, Incodema, Newchem, GPI, Dahlquist, Majestic Metals, and Mark Two, (the “Prior Acquisitions”) as discussed in further detail in Note 3 —
Business
Combination
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements. During 2021 we completed the acquisitions of Summit, Centex, Laser, Micropulse West and PPC (the “2021 Acquisitions”) as discussed in further detail in Note 3 –
Business Combinations
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
We define and calculate Adjusted EBITDA as net losses before the impact of interest income or expense, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for the following items: stock-based compensation, transaction-related costs, and certain other
non-cash
and
non-core
items, as described in the reconciliation below. We define and calculate Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA as pro forma net loss before the impact of interest income or expense, income tax expense or benefit and depreciation and amortization, and further adjusted for the same items as Adjusted EBITDA.
We include these
non-GAAP
financial measures because they are used by management to evaluate Fathom’s OpCo’s core operating performance and trends and to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital and new investments. Adjusted EBITDA excludes certain expenses that are required in accordance with U.S. GAAP because they are
non-recurring
(for example, in the case of transaction-related costs),
non-cash
(for example, in the case of depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation) or are not related to our underlying business performance (for example, in the case of interest income and expense). Pro Forma Adjusted EBITDA excludes the same categories of expenses and is prepared for the six months ended June 30, 2021, the six months ended June 30, 2020, and the year ended December 31, 2020 to give pro forma effect to the Prior Acquisitions and 2021 Acquisitions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2020, and for the year ended December 31, 2019, to give pro forma effect to the Prior Acquisitions as if they had occurred on January 1, 2019.

Key Financial Measures and Trends
Revenue
Our operations are comprised of one operating segment in the United States, with limited operations in China. Revenue is derived from our additive manufacturing, injection molding, CNC machining, and sheet metal product lines. Additive manufacturing revenue consists of sales of custom
3D-printed
parts. Injection molding revenue consists of sales of custom tooling and injection molded parts. CNC machining revenue consists of sales of
CNC-machined
custom parts. Precision sheet metal revenue consists of sales of fabricated sheet metal custom parts. Other product lines include, but are not limited to, urethane casting as well as
in-house
assistance, industrial design, and engineering services. Our revenue is generated from a diverse customer base, with no single customer representing more than 4.0% and 6.4% of our revenue in 2020 and 2019, respectively, and 6.2% of our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 Our historical and current efforts to increase revenue have been directed at gaining new customers and selling to our existing customer base by increasing marketing and selling activities, including:
 
   
Capitalizing on outsourcing trends in prototyping and
low-to-medium
volume manufacturing
 
   
Increased penetration of our existing customer base and expansion through new enterprise-level corporate customers
 
   
Further expansion of our “land and expand” customer relationship model
 
   
Expanded offering of additive manufacturing services
 
   
Further expansion of our software and digital capabilities
 
   
Promotion of customer supply chain consolidation synergies with quality and rapid turnaround times
 
   
Completion of eight strategic acquisitions to expand capabilities and expertise, add scale, and increase our customer-base
 
   
Continued pursuit of strategic acquisitions
The economic uncertainty arising from the
COVID-19
pandemic has impacted the number of customers who purchase our products. However, our acquisition-related activities have offset such impact and we expect the number of customers served to grow in the long-term despite the challenges posed by the
COVID-19
pandemic on the global economy. Although steps taken by national and local governments to slow the spread of the virus, including business shutdowns and shelter in place orders, hindered our customer’s ability to proceed with some development and commercialization projects on the same scale as they have historically, we are seeing significant improvements in the marketplace as vaccination and reopening efforts take effect. We believe some of the Industry 4.0 trends, including opportunities from reshoring and our supply chain management services, will further offset and limit the impacts of the
COVID-19
pandemic going forward.
Cost of Revenue, Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Cost of revenue consists primarily of raw materials, equipment depreciation, employee compensation including benefits, facilities costs and overhead allocations associated with the manufacturing process for molds, tools, and custom parts. We expect our personnel-related costs to increase in order to retain and attract top talent and remain competitive in the market. Overall, we expect cost of revenue to increase in absolute dollars, but remain relatively constant as a percentage of total revenue.

Our business model requires that we invest in our manufacturing capacity well in advance of demand to ensure we can meet customer expectations for quick delivery of our products. Therefore, during each of period presented, we have made significant investments in equipment and infrastructure as well as software development and IT. As we expect to continue to grow in future periods, we anticipate the need for additional investments in equipment and software development. However, we believe that these additional costs will be offset by increased revenue growth, economies of scale, and a migration to a multiple-shift manufacturing system, which will maximize plant utilization and help realize operating efficiencies, allowing us to improve our margins over time.
We define gross profit as our revenue less our cost of revenue, and we define gross margin as gross profit expressed as a percentage of revenue. Our gross profit and gross margin are affected by many factors, including our mix of revenue by product line, pricing, sales volume, manufacturing costs, the costs associated with increasing production capacity, the mix between domestic and foreign revenue sources and foreign exchange rates.
Operating Expenses
Operating expenses consist of selling, general, and administrative expenses, which consists primarily of employee compensation, benefits, stock-based compensation, professional service fees related to accounting, tax and legal and other related overhead as well as depreciation and amortization related to the declining residual value of our tangible and intangible assets. Our recent growth in selling, general and administrative expenses is mainly due to higher headcounts and transaction costs to support our growth and expansion, and we expect that trend to continue. Our business strategy is to continue to build a leading digital manufacturing platform aligned with Industry 4.0 trends, utilizing
e-commerce,
automation, and data sharing in smart factories to produce quick- turn,
on-demand
custom parts. In order to achieve our goals, we anticipate continued substantial investments in technology and personnel, resulting in increased operating expenses. We expect our operating expenses to increase on an absolute basis and as a percentage of revenue as we continue to grow and expand our operations and develop the infrastructure necessary to operate as a public company. These expenses will include increased audit and legal fees, costs of compliance with securities and other regulations, implementation costs for compliance with the provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, investor relations expense and higher insurance premiums.
Our recent increase in depreciation and amortization expenses is mainly due to our continued acquisition strategy to support our growth and expansion, and we expect that trend to continue as well. Depreciation and amortization are computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the shorter of the useful life or the lease.
Other Expense, Net
Other expense, net, which consists of interest expense, other expense and other income primarily consists of gain/loss on the sale of assets, foreign currency-related gains and losses, interest expense from servicing debt, and interest income on cash balances and investments as well as acquisition-related expenses and changes in fair value of contingent consideration. Our gain/loss on the sale of assets will vary each reporting period depending on occurrence of activity. Our foreign currency-related gains and losses will vary each reporting period depending upon movements in underlying exchange rates. Our interest expense will vary each reporting period based on the current level of variable interest rates associated with our outstanding debt obligations. Our interest income will vary each reporting period depending on our average cash balances during the period, composition of our marketable security portfolio and the current level of interest rates. Our acquisition-related expenses will vary each period based on activity and the appropriate treatment method of related costs. The fair value of our contingent consideration is subject to change each reporting period due to remeasurement under U.S. GAAP.

Income Taxes
Provision for income taxes primarily consists of federal and state income taxes for taxable subsidiaries. As we expand the scale of our business activities, any changes in the U.S. taxation of such activities may increase our overall provision for income taxes in the future. We currently do not have a valuation allowance for our U.S. deferred tax assets, including federal and state NOLs. No income tax expense or benefits have been recognized associated with uncertain tax positions.

Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 grew by $42.2 million or 174% compared with the same period in 2020, of which $1.3 million was organic and $40.9 million was inorganic through acquisition-related activity.
For the six months ended June 30, 2021, our revenue growth by product line consisted of organic and inorganic growth as follows. Our additive revenue increased by $0.1 million, or 2%, of which 100% was organic revenue. Our injection molding revenue grew by $6.0 million, or 84%, of which 56% was organic and 44% was inorganic, driven by the Summit acquisition. Our CNC machining revenue grew by $10.7 million, or 202%, of which 100% of growth was inorganic driven by the Dahlquist, Mark Two, PPC, MPC, Centex, and Laser acquisitions. Our precision sheet metal revenue grew by $25.2 million, of which 100% was inorganic, driven by the Incodema, Newcut, and Majestic acquisitions. Our other revenue grew by $0.2 million, or 6%, of which 100% was organic.
Our revenue increase in 2021 was the result of an increase in the volume of customers we served, primarily through acquisition-related activity as noted above. See Note 3 —
Business Combinations
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. We expect the number of customers served to grow in the long-term despite the challenges posed by the
COVID-19
pandemic on the global economy. Steps taken by national and local governments to slow the spread of the virus, including business shutdowns and shelter in place orders, have hindered the ability and willingness of customers to proceed with development and commercialization projects on the same scale as they have historically. At this time, it is difficult to predict the future given the current economic uncertainty and evolving market conditions.
Cost of Revenue, Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Cost of Revenue.
Cost of revenue increased $23.2 million, or 175%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020, which was approximately the same rate of revenue increase for the periods. The increase in cost of revenue was primarily driven by sales volume growth resulting from acquisition-related activities during the period. See Note 3 —
Business Combinations
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin.
Gross profit increased from $11.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 to $29.9 million for the same period in 2021 primarily due to an increase in revenue mainly attributable to sales volume growth resulting from acquisition-related activities during the period. Gross margin remained consistent at 45% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020.
Operating Expenses
Selling, general, and administrative.
Our selling, general, and administrative expense increased $10.1 million, or 120%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due to increases in salaries, wages, and commissions as well as digital marketing and professional fees driven by acquisition-related activities during the period. See Note 3 —
Business Combinations
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Depreciation and amortization.
Our depreciation and amortization expense increased $4.5 million, or 279%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 due to increased fixed and intangible assets acquired with finite useful lives. The increases were primarily driven by acquisition-related activities during the period. See Note 3 —
Business Combinations
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Income from Operations
Income from operations increased $4.4 million, or 495%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared with the same period in 2020. The increase in income from operations is primarily driven by the increases in revenue.

Other Expense, Net
We recognized other expense, net of $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $8.6 million compared to other expense, net of $1.1 million for the same period in 2020. Other expense, net primarily consisted of $4.4 million and $1.3 million in interest expense, $8.7 million and $0.1 million in acquisitions expenses, partially offset by $3.3 million and $0.3 million in other income for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The increase in interest expense during the current period was driven by debt-related activities during 2021 and 2020 in relation to acquisition-related activities in each respective period. See Note 3 —
Business
Combinations
and Note 8 —
Debt
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. The increase in other expense during the current period was driven by acquisition-related activities in each respective period. See Note 3 —
Business
Combinations
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. The increase in other income during the current period was driven by the change in fair value on contingent consideration and PPP loan forgiveness. See Note 8 —
Debt
and
Note 12 —
Fair Value Measurement
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Income Taxes
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 3.5% and 0% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared with the same period in 2020, and the Company’s income tax expense was $0.8M and $0 for the periods, respectively. The change in the Company’s effective income tax rate relates to the acquisitions of three taxable C corporations during 2021. Refer to Note 14 —

Revenue for the year ended December 31, 2020 grew by $40.7 million or 197% compared with 2019, of which 14% was organic and 86% was inorganic through acquisition-related activity. Our organic revenue was $19.4 million and $13.5 million or 32% and 66% of total revenue for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.
For the year ended December 31, 2020, our revenue growth by product line consisted of organic and inorganic growth as follows. Our additive revenue grew by $7.6 million, or 66%, of which 14% was organic and 86% was inorganic, driven by $5.9 million from the FATHOM acquisition. Our injection molding revenue grew by $15.0 million, or 731%, of which 10% was organic and 90% was inorganic, driven by $10.1 million from the ICOMold acquisition and $3.4 million from the FATHOM acquisition. Our CNC machining revenue grew by $5.3 million, or 139%, of which 40% was organic and 60% was inorganic, driven by $2.7 million from the FATHOM acquisition. Our precision sheet metal revenue grew by $9.8 million, of which 100% was inorganic, driven by $6.5 million from the Incodema acquisition, $2.4 million from the Newchem acquisition, and $0.9 million from the Majestic Metals acquisition. Our other revenue grew by $2.9 million, or 89%, of which 41% was organic and 59% was inorganic, driven by the Incodema and FATHOM acquisitions.
Our revenue increase in 2020 was the result of an increase in the volume of customers we served, primarily through acquisition-related activity as noted above. See Note 3 —
Business Combination
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for further information. We expect the number of customers served to grow in the long-term despite the challenges posed by the
COVID-19
pandemic on the global economy. Steps taken by national and local governments to slow the spread of the virus, including business shutdowns and shelter in place orders, have hindered the ability and willingness of customers to proceed with development and commercialization projects on the same scale as they have historically. At this time, it is difficult to predict the future given the current economic uncertainty and evolving market conditions.
Cost of Revenue, Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Cost of Revenue.
Cost of revenue increased $22.1 million, or 207%, for 2020 compared to 2019, which was more than the rate of revenue increase of 197% for 2020 compared to 2019. The increases were driven by raw material increases of $13.4 million as well as outsourced services and subcontract services increases of $5.5 million. The increase in cost of revenue was primarily driven by acquisition-related activities during the period. See Note 3 —
Business Combination
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin.
Gross profit increased from $9.9 million in 2019 to $28.5 million in 2020 primarily due to an increase in revenue mainly attributable to an increase in Injection Molding and CNC Machining revenue for FATHOM and revenue from sales of parts for ICO Mold as compared to 2019. Gross margin decreased from 48% of revenue in 2019 to 46% of revenue in 2020 due to an increase of direct materials cost of ICOMold and MCT as compared to 2019.

Table of Contents
Operating Expenses
Selling, general, and administrative.
Our selling, general, and administrative expense increased $13.7 million, or 162%, for 2020 compared to 2019 due to an increase in salaries, wages and commissions of $5.9m, an increase in advertising and marketing costs of $1.0 million, and an increase in professional fee expenses of $1.2 million. The increases in salaries, wages, and commissions as well as professional fees was primarily driven by acquisition-related activities during the period. See Note 3 —
Business Combination
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Depreciation and amortization.
Our depreciation and amortization expense increased $3.2 million, or 201%, for 2020 compared to 2019 due to increased fixed and intangible assets acquired with finite useful lives. The increases were primarily driven by acquisition-related activities during the period. See Note 3 —
Business Combination
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Income from Operations
Income from operations increased $1.6 million, or 1,025%, for 2020 compared with 2019. The increase in income from operations is primarily driven by the increases in revenue.
Other Expense, Net
We recognized other expense, net of $9.4 million in 2020, an increase of $4.8 million compared to other expense, net of $4.6 million for 2019. Other expense, net for 2020 primarily consisted of $3.4 million in interest expense and $3.1 million in acquisition expenses. Other expense, net for 2019 primarily consisted of $1.5 million in interest expense and $2 million in acquisition expenses. The increase in interest expense during the current period was driven by debt-related activities during 2020 and 2019 in relation to acquisition-related activities in each respective period. See Note 3 —
Business Combination
and Note 8 —
Long-term Debt
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We measure liquidity in terms of our ability to fund the cash requirements of our business operations, including working capital and capital expenditure needs, contractual obligations and other commitments, with cash flows from operations and other sources of funding. Our current working capital needs relate mainly to our growth strategies, including business combination activity, capital equipment investments, and business development efforts, as well as compensation and benefits of our employees. In addition, under our credit agreements, the Company is subject to various financial covenants, including quarterly fixed-charge coverage ratio; total leverage ratio; and minimum adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (AEBITDA). As of the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021, the Company has remained in compliance with all covenant requirements. Our ability to expand and grow our business will depend on many factors, including our working capital needs and the evolution of our operating cash flows.
In addition, as of June 30, 2021 we have contingent consideration payable to former shareholders of $8.4 million related to acquisitions made in 2020 and 2021. This amount represents our best estimate of the fair value of the contingent consideration that will ultimately be paid in future periods as of the period ended June 30, 2021. However, the amount could be materially higher or lower depending on future economic performance of the acquired businesses. See Note 12 —
Fair Value Measurement
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information.
We had $14.8 million in cash and cash equivalents as June 30, 2021. Cash and cash equivalents include cash and other short-term investments with maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase. We believe our
 
246

operating cash flows, together with amounts available under our term loan and revolving credit facility, our cash on hand and the cash we expect to obtain from the New Credit Agreement as a result of the Business Combination will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements once the Business Combination closes. See the Going Concern section above for discussion of the committed financing expected to be funded upon closing of the Business Combination.
We may, however, need additional cash resources due to changed business conditions or other developments, including unanticipated regulatory developments, significant acquisitions and competitive pressures. We expect our capital expenditures and working capital requirements to continue to increase in the immediate future, as we seek to expand our product offerings across more of the United States. Our recent annual capital expenditures have varied between 2.7% and 3.5% of annual revenue. We believe future growth capital expenditures, excluding any expenditures for buildings and maintenance capital we might purchase for our operations, are likely to vary between approximately 3.0% and 5.0% of annual revenue. To the extent that our current resources are insufficient to satisfy our cash requirements, we may need to seek additional equity or debt financing. If the needed financing is not available, or if the terms of financing are less desirable than we expect, we may be forced to decrease our level of investment in new product launches and related marketing initiatives or to scale back our existing operations, which could have an adverse impact on our business and financial prospects. See Note 3 —
Business Combination
to our audited Consolidated Financial Statements and unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in this proxy statement/prospectus.
Borrowings and Lines of Credit
We had $169.5 million in total debt outstanding as of June 30, 2021. Our debt has primarily been used in the financing of our business combinations.
On August 31, 2018, the Company entered into a $15 million term loan, a $10 million delayed draw term loan, and a revolving credit agreement permitting aggregate borrowings of up to $1.5 million with a bank that provided a secured, unsubordinated term loan credit facility with a maturity of August 23, 2023. On December 2, 2019, the Company entered into the third amendment to the 2018 Credit Facilities. Pursuant to the amendment, an additional $15 million term loan was issued as part of financing for the ICOMold acquisition as described in Note 3 —
Business Combination
to our audited Consolidated Financial Statements. Collectively, this debt is referred to as the “2018 and 2019 Credit Facilities.” On August 18, 2020, the Company drew $2 million on the delayed draw term loan as part of financing for the GPI acquisition as described in Note 3 —
Business Combination
to our audited Consolidated Financial Statements.
On July 27, 2020, the Company entered into a $34.5 million secured, unsubordinated credit facility (the “2020 Credit Facilities”) with a financial institution, consisting of a $19.5 million term loan and a $15 million delayed draw term loan, with a maturity of July 27, 2026. At closing, $19.5 million was funded and along with cash on the Company’s balance sheet, used to finance the acquisition of Incodema and Newchem as discussed in Note 3 —
Business Combination
to our audited Consolidated Financial Statements. On December 16, 2020, the Company entered into the first amendment to the 2020 Credit Facility. Pursuant to the amendment, the availability on the delayed draw term loan was increased to $40.5 million and was drawn on as part of the financing as part of the Dahlquist, Mark Two, and Majestic Metals as discussed in Note 3 —
Business Combination
to our audited Consolidated Financial Statements.
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan in the amount of $1.6 million through the Small Business Administration (SBA) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. Additionally, the Company assumed additional PPP loans during the year ended December 31, 2020 in the amount of $0.9 million through the acquisitions of Dahlquist and Mark Two as discussed in Note 3 —
Business Combination
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements. All PPP loans have been forgiven as of June 30, 2021.
 
247

As previously discussed in the Going Concern section, on April 30, 2021, the Company completed a financing transaction whereby it issued a $172 million term loan due April 2022 (the “2021 Term Loan”) in order to finance the acquisitions of Centex Machine and Welding, Inc. (“Centex”), Laser Manufacturing, Inc. (“Laser”), Sureshot Precision, LLC d/b/a Micropulse West (“Micropulse West”), and Precision Process Corporation (“PPC”), as well as to refinance the Company’s existing debt, as described above and in Note 8 —
Long-Term Debt
and Note 20 —
Subsequent Events
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements.
To address the upcoming maturity of the 2021 Term Loan and a lack of sufficient cash on hand and cash flow from operations to repay the Term Loan, the Company has entered into a new credit facility with its existing creditors (the “New Credit Agreement”). The New Credit Agreement includes a $50 million revolving credit facility and $125 million term loan and matures in 2026. The proceeds from these loans will be used to repay the 2021 Term Loan; however, the funding of the New Credit Agreement is contingent on the Company closing a definitive business combination with a publicly traded Special Purpose Acquisition Company (“SPAC”) before April 9, 2022 (the “SPAC Transaction”). See the Going Concern section above for further discussion of the committed financing expected to be funded upon closing of the SPAC Transaction. Additionally, see Note 8 —

Sources of Liquidity
We finance our operations and capital expenditures through cash flows from operations while our acquisition-related activities are primarily financed through the issuance of long-term debt as discussed above. We had cash and cash equivalents of $14.8 million as of June 30, 2021, an increase of $6.6 million from June 30, 2020. The increase in our cash was due primarily to cash generated through obtaining additional debt financing offset by cash used for acquisitions.
As of June 30, 2021, the amount of cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries was $0.4 million. Our intent is to continue to permanently reinvest these funds outside the U.S. and our current plans do not demonstrate a need to repatriate them to fund our domestic operations. We believe that our existing cash and cash equivalents together with cash generated from operations as well as closings of the New Credit Agreement and the Business Combination will be sufficient to meet our working capital expenditure requirements for at least the next 12 months. See the Going Concern section above for discussion of the committed financing expected to be funded upon closing of the Business Combination.
Cash Flows from Operating Activities
The cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to the same period in 2020 decreased $1.0 million due to a greater net loss reported in the period resulting from higher operating
 
248

expenses, including depreciation and amortization, as well as a carrying a higher accounts payable balance at the end of the period, both of which were driven by acquisition and integration-related activities. These drivers were partially offset by the change in fair value of contingent consideration and gains on PPP loan forgiveness.
The cash flow from operating activities during 2020 compared to 2019 increased $2.5 million due to increases in revenue from new product lines, which were partially offset by increased costs associated with these new product lines.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
Cash used in investing activities was $70.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared to $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020 with the increase due to cash used for the acquisitions of Summit, Centex, Laser, Micropulse West, and PPC.
Cash used in investing activities was $96.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 compared to $44.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 with the increase due to cash used for the acquisitions of Incodema, Newchem, Dahlquist, Mark Two and Majestic Metals.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
Cash generated in financing activities was $76.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, consisting of $183.5 million in proceeds from the issuance of new debt and $2.0 million from a loss on extinguishment of debt, partially offset by $104.1 million in repayments on debt, $2.5 million in debt issuance cost payments, and $3.0 million in contingent considerations payments. Cash generated in financing activities was $3.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, consisting of $3.1 million in proceeds from the issuance of new debt. The increase in cash was driven by financing requirements for the acquisitions made by the Company in 2020 and 2021.
Cash generated in financing activities was $101.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2020, consisting of $65.1 million in proceeds from the issuance of new debt, and $40.5 million in proceeds from issuances of members’ units, partially offset by $1.7 million in repayments on debt and $1.4 million of payments for contingent considerations. Cash generated in financing activities was $43.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, consisting of $32.1 million in proceeds from issuances of members’ units and $16 million in proceeds from the issuance of new debt, partially offset by $3.5 million in payments for contingent considerations. The increase in cash was driven by financing requirements for the acquisitions made by the Company in 2020.
Contractual Obligations
We extend a variety of financial guarantees to third parties in support of our business. We also have obligations arising from environmental, health and safety, tax and employment matters. Circumstances that could cause the contingent obligations and liabilities arising from these arrangements to come to fruition include changes in an underlying transaction,
non-performance
under a contract or deterioration in the financial condition of the guaranteed party.

Debt includes current maturities. See Note 8 —
Debt
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Interest on debt represents our best estimate of future interest payments based on contractual terms. This amount could be materially higher or lower depending on future interest rate fluctuations and their impact on our variable rate debt. See Note 8 —
Debt
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Contingent consideration relates to amounts payable to former shareholders as a result of acquisitions made in 2020 and 2021. This amount represents our best estimate of the fair value of the contingent consideration that will ultimately be paid in future periods as of the period June 30, 2021. However, the amount could be materially higher or lower depending on future economic performance of the acquired businesses. See Footnote 12 —
Fair Value Measurement

Off-Balance
Sheet Arrangements
Since our inception, we have not engaged in any
off-balance
sheet arrangements, including the use of structured finance, special purpose entities or variable interest entities.
Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates
Preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, sales and expenses. Note 2 —
Significant Accounting Policies
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements describes the significant accounting policies used in preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. We believe that the most complex and sensitive judgments, because of their potential significance to the Consolidated Financial Statements, result primarily from the need to make estimates about the effects of matters that are inherently uncertain and are described subsequently. Actual results could differ from management’s estimates.
Business Combinations
We account for business acquisitions in accordance with ASC 805,
Business Combinations
. We measure the cost of an acquisition as the aggregate of the acquisition date fair values of the assets transferred and liabilities assumed and equity instruments issued. Transaction costs directly attributable to the acquisition are expensed as incurred. We record goodwill for the excess of (i) the total costs of acquisition, fair value of any
non-controlling
interests and acquisition date fair value of any previously held equity interest in the acquired business over (ii) the fair value of the identifiable net assets of the acquired business.
 
250

The acquisition method of accounting requires us to exercise judgment and make estimates and assumptions based on available information regarding the fair values of the elements of a business combination as of the date of acquisition, including the fair values of identifiable intangible assets, deferred tax asset valuation allowances, liabilities related to uncertain tax positions and contingencies. We must also refine these estimates over a
one-year
measurement period, to reflect any new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the measurement of the amounts recognized as of that date. If we are required to retroactively adjust provisional amounts that we have recorded for the fair value of assets and liabilities in connection with an acquisition, these adjustments could materially impact our results of operations and financial position. Estimates and assumptions that we must make in estimating the fair value of future acquired technology, user lists and other identifiable intangible assets include future cash flows that we expect to generate from the acquired assets. If the subsequent actual results and updated projections of the underlying business activity change compared with the assumptions and projections used to develop these values, we could record impairment charges. In addition, we have estimated the economic lives of certain acquired assets and these lives are used to calculate depreciation and amortization expense. If our estimates of the economic lives change, depreciation or amortization expenses could be accelerated or slowed, which could materially impact our results of operations.
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
We recognize goodwill in accordance with ASC 350,
Intangibles—Goodwill and Other
. Goodwill is the excess of cost of an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually as of October 1st of each year, and is tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. An impairment charge for goodwill is recognized only when the estimated fair value of a reporting unit, including goodwill, is less than its carrying amount. In 2020, we performed a qualitative and quantitative analysis based on the significance of the fair value over the carrying value in prior period assessments. As of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021, no impairment charges for goodwill have been recognized.
We recognize intangibles assets in accordance with ASC 350,
Intangibles—Goodwill and Other
. Acquired intangible assets subject to amortization are stated at cost and are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment at least annually. As of December 31, 2020 and June 30, 2021, no impairment charges for intangible assets have been recognized.
The estimates of fair value are based on the best information available as of the date of the assessment, which primarily incorporates management assumptions about expected future cash flows. Although these assets are not currently impaired, there can be no assurance that future impairments will not occur. See Note 3 —
Business Combination
and Note 7 —
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 3 –
Business Combination
and Note 7 —
Goodwill and Intangible Assets
in the accompanying Notes to the Interim Financial Statements for further information.
Revenue Recognition from Contracts with Customers
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, using the modified retrospective approach. Most of the Company’s revenue has one performance obligation and is recognized on a
point-in-time
basis upon shipment. The majority of the Company’s injection molding contracts have multiple performance obligations including one obligation to produce the mold and sample part and a second obligation to produce production parts. For injection molding contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price and recognizes revenue for each performance obligation on a
point-in-time
basis upon shipment. We
 
251

generally determine standalone selling price based on the price charged to customers. The Company’s payments terms are consistent with industry standards and never exceed 12 months. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Contingent Liabilities
Our contingent liabilities, which are included within the “other long-term liabilities” caption on our consolidated balance sheets, are uncertain by nature and their estimation requires significant management judgment as to the probability and estimation of the amount of liability. These contingencies include, but may not be limited to, earnout payments, litigation, and management’s evaluation of complex laws and regulations, including those relating to indirect taxes, and the extent to which they may apply to our business and industry. See Note 17 —
Fair Value Measurement
and Note 18 —
Commitments and Contingencies
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Note 12 —
Fair Value Measurement
and Note 13 —
Commitments and Contingencies
in the accompanying Notes to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information.
We regularly review our contingencies to determine whether the likelihood of la liability is probable and to assess whether a reasonable estimate of the liability can be made. Determination of whether a liability estimate can be made is a complex undertaking that considers the judgement of management, third-party research, the prospect of negotiation and interpretations by regulators and courts, among other information. When liabilities can be reasonably estimated, an estimated contingent liability is recorded. We continually reevaluate our indirect tax and other positions for appropriateness.
Share-Based Compensation
We determine our share-based compensation in accordance with ASC 718,
Compensation—Stock Compensation
(ASC 718), which requires the measurement and recognition of compensation expense for all share-based payment awards made to employees based on the grant date fair value of the award.
Determining the appropriate fair value model and calculating the fair value of phantom award grants requires the input of subjective assumptions. We use the Black-Scholes pricing model to value our phantom awards. Share-based compensation expense is calculated using our best estimates, which involve inherent uncertainties and the application of management’s judgment. Significant estimates include our expected volatility. If different estimates and assumptions had been used, our phantom unit valuations could be significantly different and related share-based compensation expense may be materially impacted.
The Black-Scholes pricing model requires inputs such as the risk-free interest rate, expected term, expected volatility and expected dividend yield. We base the risk-free interest rate that we use in the Black-Scholes pricing model on zero coupon U.S. Treasury instruments with maturities similar to the expected term of the award being valued. The expected term of phantom awards is estimated from the vesting period of the award and represents the weighted average period that our phantom awards are expected to be outstanding. We estimated the volatility based on the historic volatility of our guideline companies, which we feel best represent our company. We have never paid and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future and, therefore, we use an expected dividend yield of zero in the pricing model. We account for forfeitures as they occur.
 
252

The fair value of each award granted was estimated on the date of grant for the periods below using the Black-Scholes pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
 
    
2020
   
2019
 
Risk-free interest rate
     0.28     2.24
Expected term
     4.65       4.47  
Expected volatility
     76.67     73.55
Expected dividend yield
     0.00     0.00
Weighted average grant date fair value, time-vested units
   $ 57.69     $ 98.37  
Weighted average grant date fair value, performance-vested units
   $ 49.96     $ 87.51  
If in the future we determine that another method for calculating the fair value of our phantom awards is more reasonable, or if another method for calculating the above input assumptions is prescribed by authoritative guidance, the fair value calculated for our phantom awards could change significantly.
There are significant differences among valuation models, and this may result in a lack of comparability with other companies that use different models, methods and assumptions. If factors change and we employ different assumptions in the application of ASC 718 in future periods, or if we decide to use a different valuation model, such as a lattice model, the share-based compensation expense that we record in the future under ASC 718 may differ significantly from what we have recorded using the Black-Scholes pricing model and could materially affect our operating results.
We allocate share-based compensation expense for time-vested awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. We recorded share-based compensation expense of $34 thousand and $21 thousand during 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of December 31, 2020, we had $554 thousand of unrecognized share- based compensation costs, net of estimated forfeitures, that is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.8 years.
Performance-vested awards are contingent on a
change-in-control
event. Recognition of share-based compensation expense for these awards is based on the likelihood of a
change-in-control
event being probable, which per U.S. GAAP is not considered probable until the such an event occurs.
In future periods, our share-based compensation expense is expected to increase due to the issuance additional share-based awards, potential for a
change-in-control
event, and our existing unrecognized share-based compensation.
Phantom Award Valuation
The fair value of our phantom units is used to determine the expense recognition of equity-based payments made to employees. Because we are a privately held company with no public market for our equity units, our board of directors has considered numerous objective and subjective factors in determining the value of phantom units in accordance with the guidance provided by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants Practice Aid, Valuation of Privately-Held-Company Equity Securities Issued as Compensation. These objective and subjective factors include:
 
   
recent valuation analysis furnished by either an independent third-party valuation specialist or a professional investor in our company;
 
   
our stage of development;
 
   
actual and forecasted operating and financial performance;
 
   
our capital resources or financial condition;
 
253

   
trends and risks in our industry;
 
   
U.S. and global capital market conditions;
 
   
the preferences of our preferred and common units relative to those of common stock;
 
   
the lack of a public market for our equity units; and
 
   
the prospects for increased liquidity in our equity units through an initial public offering, sale of our company or otherwise.
Valuations that we have performed require significant use of estimates and assumptions. If different estimates and assumptions had been used, our equity unit valuations could be significantly different and related share-based compensation expense may be materially impacted.
The following table summarizes, by grant date, the number of vesting-type units underlying phantom awards granted since January 1, 2019 and the grant date fair value as of the respective valuation dates.

In April 2021, our board of directors obtained valuation analyses as of each of the valuation dates noted in the table above from an independent third-party valuation specialist, which it utilized in part in connection with its fair value determination for the respective award grants. The January 1, 2019, October 1, 2019, and October 1, 2020 valuations dates relate to MCT Holdings, while the July 27, 2020 valuation date relates to Incodema Holdings. The approach for both entities was the same. In determining the fair value of our phantom units for these grants, our board used the market approach and income approach valuation methods that were also used by the third-party valuation specialist. Market approaches are a general way of determining a value indication of a business ownership interest or security by using one or more methods that compare the subject to similar businesses, business ownership interests, or securities that are publicly traded or have been sold. In the market approach, estimates of market value are developed by comparing our company to selected publicly traded companies or acquired companies that possess similar business risks and returns. On the basis of the comparative analysis, valuation multiples derived from the guideline companies are applied to financial data of our company to develop an indication of the enterprise value.
In the income approach, our board utilized the discounted cash flow method to determine an indication of value. In the discounted cash flow method, several years of future cash flows are estimated. These cash flows are then discounted to a present value using a discount rate that our board believed to be appropriate to compensate for the risk of attaining the projected cash flows. The discounted cash flow method is a multi-period income approach because it considers multiple years of income and cash flow. This valuation method is highly sensitive to projected future performance as well as selected terminal multiples and discount rates. A weighted average cost of capital of 15.9%, 14.9%, 23.5%, and 14% for each of the subsidiary valuation dates January 1, 2019, October 1, 2019, July 27, 2020, and October 1, 2020, respectively, were used in our board’s analysis. Our board believed the discounted cash flow method provided the most relevant indication of our company’s enterprise value given our projected growth. Our board concluded that it was appropriate to rely on the valuations as of each date for purposes of the respective grants in the table above, in large part based on its determination that there were no significant changes in our business, including our recent and forecasted financial results, between each of the grant dates and the date of their respective valuations.

Recently adopted accounting pronouncements
During the year ended 2020, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU)
2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
, which is intended to provide financial statement users with a single model for accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers and supersedes previous revenue guidance, including industry-specific revenue guidance. The adoption of this guidance had no material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recently issued accounting pronouncements
See Note 2 —
Significant Accounting Policies
to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in this proxy statement/prospectus for a description of recently issued accounting pronouncements applicable to our financial statements.
Emerging Growth Company Accounting Election
Section 102(b)(1) of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (“JOBS Act”) exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can choose not to take advantage of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to
non-emerging
growth companies, and any such election to not take advantage of the extended transition period is irrevocable. Altimar II is an “emerging growth company” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and has elected to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Fathom is expected to remain an emerging growth company at least through the end of the 2021 fiscal year and is expected to continue to take advantage of the benefits of the extended transition period. This may make it difficult or impossible to compare Fathom financial results with the financial results of another public company that is either not an emerging growth company or is an emerging growth company that has chosen not to take advantage of the extended transition period exemptions for emerging growth companies because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Supplemental Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information
Comparability of Pro Forma Financial Results
During 2019 we completed the acquisitions of FATHOM and ICO Mold (the “2019 Acquisitions”). During 2020 we completed the acquisitions of Incodema, Newchem, GPI, Dahlquist, Majestic Metals, and Mark Two (the “2020 Acquisitions” and together with the 2019 Acquisitions, the “Prior Acquisitions”). During 2021 we completed the acquisitions of Summit, Centex, Laser, Precision Process, and Micropulse West (the “2021 Acquisitions”) as discussed in further detail in Note 3 —
Business Combination
in the accompanying Notes to the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Interim Consolidated Financial Statements. The Prior Acquisitions and 2021 Acquisitions resulted in, among other things, a considerable increase in amortizable intangible assets and goodwill. The amortization of acquired intangibles has materially increased our consolidated depreciation and amortization expense for periods after the acquisition and is expected to continue to do so for the foreseeable future.
The preceding discussion of our results of operations for the twelve months ended December 30, 2019 and 2020 and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 includes the financial results of the Prior Acquisitions and 2021 Acquisitions from the date following the respective acquisitions through June 30, 2021. Accordingly, our consolidated results of operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 and the six month ended June 30, 2021 are not comparable to our consolidated results of operations for prior periods and may not be comparable with our consolidated results for future periods. To facilitate comparability between periods, we have included in this proxy statement/prospectus a supplemental discussion of our unaudited pro forma results of

operations for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 compared with the same period in 2019, and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared with the same period in 2020.
The pro forma results for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were prepared giving effect to the Prior Acquisitions as if they had been consummated on January 1, 2019. The pro forma results for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were prepared giving effect to the 2020 Acquisitions and 2021 Acquisitions as if they had been consummated on January 1, 2020.
Unaudited Pro Forma Results for the Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Compared to the Six Months Ended June 30, 2020
The following tables summarize our pro forma results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020. They are not the results that would have been realized had the Prior Acquisitions actually occurred on January 1, 2019 and the 2021 Acquisitions actually occurred on January 1, 2020 and are not indicative of our consolidated results of operations for future periods.

By product line, our revenue increase was driven by a 29% increase in Injection Molding revenue, a 25% increase in Precision Sheet Metal revenue, and a 2% increase to Additive Manufacturing, partially offset by 13% reduction in CNC Machining revenue and a 9% decrease in Other revenue in each case for the six months ended June 30, 2021 compared with 2020.
Revenue
. Pro forma revenue increased by $3.9 million, or 5.3%, to $76.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $72.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. Our revenue growth was driven by our strategic account focused sales and marketing strategy as well as increases to our injection molding product line, resulting from more hybridized customer solutions combining our additive and injection molding product lines, and our precision sheet metal product line.
Cost of revenue.
Pro forma cost of revenue increased by $2.9 million, or 7.6%, to $40.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $38.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase is driven by higher order volumes and modest raw material price increase compared to the prior year.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses.
Pro forma selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $2.3 million, or 11.8%, to $22.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $19.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was driven by headcount growth and related fringe benefit costs as well as insurance, utilities, and professional services fee increases.
Depreciation and amortization.
Pro forma depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $0.9 million, or 11%, to $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $7.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This decrease was primarily attributable to the consolidation of manufacturing for select acquired entities and the disposition and ending of service life of certain assets.
Interest expense.
Pro forma interest expense decreased by $4.7 million, or 100%, for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from the six months ended June 30, 2020, because the debt would have been repaid.
Other expense
. Pro forma other expense increased by $8.5 million to $9.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $0.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was driven by higher transaction expenses.
Other income
. Pro forma other income increased by $3.5 million to $3.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $0.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This increase was driven by the change in fair value of contingent consideration.
 
260

Income
taxes
. Pro forma income taxes decreased by $0.1 million to $0.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. This decrease was driven primarily by a decrease in taxable income.
Net income (loss).
Pro forma net income decreased by $0.6 million, or 25.3%, to $1.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021 from $2.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020, for the reasons discussed above.

By product line, our revenue increase was driven by a 43% increase in Injection Molding revenue, a 26% increase in CNC Machining revenue, an 8% increase in Precision Sheet Metal, and a 1% increase in Additive Manufacturing revenue in each case for 2020 compared with 2019.
Revenue
. Pro forma revenue increased by $13.6 million, or 14.0%, to $110.6 million in 2020 from $97.0 million in 2019. Our revenue growth was driven by our strategic account focused sales and marketing strategy as well as increases to our injection molding product line, resulting from more hybridized customer solutions combining our additive and injection molding product lines, and our CNC machining product line.
Cost of revenue.
Pro forma cost of revenue increased by $3.7 million, or 6.9%, to $57.5 million in 2020 from $53.8 million in 2019. This increase is driven by higher order volumes and modest raw material price increase compared to the prior year.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses.
Pro forma selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $8.2 million, or 28.7%, to $36.6 million in 2020 from $28.4 million in 2019. This increase was driven by headcount growth and related fringe benefit costs as well as insurance, utilities, and professional services fee increases.
Depreciation
and amortization.
Pro forma depreciation and amortization expense decreased by $0.7 million, or 6.0%, to $11.5 million in 2020 from $12.3 million in 2019. This decrease was primarily attributable to the consolidation of manufacturing for select acquired entities and the disposition and ending of service life of certain assets.
Interest expense.
Pro forma interest expense increased $0.6 million, or 8.8%, to $7.5 million in 2020 from $6.9 million in 2019 due to additional interest related to our outstanding credit facilities.
Other expense
. Pro forma other expense increased by $0.6 million, or 8.7%, to $7.8 million in 2020 from $7.1 million in 2019. This increase was driven by lower transaction expenses.
Other income
. Pro forma other income increased by $2.6 million to $2.8 million in 2020 from $0.2 million in 2019. This increase was driven by forgiveness of PPP loans.
Net income (loss).
Pro forma net income (loss) decreased by $3.8 million, or 33.7%, to $(7.4) million in 2020 from $(11.2) million in 2019, for the reasons discussed above.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure of Market Risks
We are exposed to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates.
Foreign Currency Exposures
As a result of our foreign operations, we have revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities that are denominated in foreign currency. We generate revenue and incur production costs and operating expenses in Chinese Yuan.
Our operating results and cash flows are adversely impacted when the United States dollar appreciates relative to other foreign currencies. As we expand internationally, our results of operations and cash flows will become increasingly subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
We have not used forward contracts or currency borrowings to hedge our exposure to foreign currency risk. Foreign currency risk can be assessed by estimating the change in results of operations or financial position resulting from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in foreign exchange rates. We believe such a change would generally not have a material impact on our financial position, or on our results of operations. We recognized foreign currency losses of $0.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2020 and no foreign currency activity for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Interest Rate Exposures
Our long-term debt consists of variable-rate instruments, which exposes us to changes in interest rates and may impact our pretax earnings and cash flows. At June 30, 2021, we had total variable rate debt outstanding under our New Credit Agreement of approximately $172 million. If the effective interest rate of our variable rate debt outstanding as of June 30, 2021 were to increase by 100 basis points (1%), our interest expense for the first six months ended June 30, 2021 would increase by approximately $0.9 million. Currently, we do not hold any derivative contracts that hedge our interest rate exposures, but may consider such strategies in the future.

Other than quarterly audit committee review of such reimbursements, Altimar II does not have any additional controls in place for governing reimbursement payments to its directors and executive officers for their
out-of-pocket
expenses incurred on behalf of Altimar II and in connection with identifying and consummating an initial business combination. Other than these payments and reimbursements, no compensation of any kind, including finder’s and consulting fees, is paid by Altimar II to the Sponsor, executive officers and directors or any of their respective affiliates, prior to completion of the initial business combination.
Pre-Business
Combination Company Executive Officer and Director Compensation
Introduction
As an emerging growth company, we have opted to comply with the executive compensation disclosure rules applicable to “smaller reporting companies,” as such term is defined in the rules promulgated under the Securities Act. This section discusses the material components of the executive compensation program for our Chief Executive Officer and our two other most highly compensated officers whom we refer to as our “Named Executive Officers”.
Background on Named Executive Officer Determination
Fathom OpCo was formed in 2021, at which time, in connection with a series of transactions (the “Reorganization”) it became the direct parent to MCT Group Holdings, LLC (and its subsidiaries), a Delaware limited liability company (“MCT Holdings”), and Incodema Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Incodema”). As of December 31, 2020, MCT and Incodema were under the common control of CORE Industrial Partners. Fathom OpCo’s named executive officers (“Named Executive Officers” or “NEOs”) for purposes of this disclosure were determined by reviewing the total compensation for the 2020 fiscal year for each employee of MCT Holdings (and its subsidiaries) and Incodema Holdings (and its subsidiaries) who would be considered an executive officer of such entities, or Fathom OpCo if it had existed on December 31, 2020 and was then the direct parent of MCT Holdings and Incodema. Because Incodema was not acquired by CORE Industrial Partners until July 15, 2020, the three most highly compensated executive officers serving on December 31, 2020 for Fathom OpCo for purposes of this disclosure were all employees of MCT Holdings (and its subsidiaries) (the “MCT Group”).
For the year ended December 31, 2020, Fathom OpCo’s NEOs were:
 
   
Ryan Martin, Chief Executive Officer of MCT Group;
 
   
Richard Stump, Chief Commercial Officer of MCT Group; and
 
   
Brian Freeburg, Chief Financial Officer of MCT Group.

Our Compensation Program
The objective of Fathom OpCo’s compensation program is to provide a total compensation package to each NEO that will enable Fathom OpCo to attract, motivate and retain outstanding individuals, align the interests of our executive team with those of our stockholders, encourage individual and collective contributions to the successful execution of our short and long-term business strategies, and reward NEOs for performance. The board of managers of MCT Group has historically determined the compensation for Fathom OpCo’s 2020 NEOs.
The 2020 compensation program for the NEOs consisted of base salary, short-term cash incentives, and long-term equity incentives, each as described below:
 
   
Base Salary.
Base salary is paid to attract and retain qualified talent and is set at a level that is commensurate with the executive’s duties and authorities, contributions, prior experience and sustained performance. Mr. Freeburg’s base salary was increased from $195,000 to $220,000 in June 2020; the other NEOs received a base salary increase in 2020.
 
   
Short-Term Cash Incentives.
Annual cash bonuses are paid under an annual cash incentive plan to incentivize the NEOs to achieve certain annual financial and operating performance metrics. Prior to the Reorganization, our NEOs’ annual cash bonuses were paid at the discretion of the board of managers of MCT Holdings. Following the Reorganization, annual cash bonus payments shall be made based on performance against annual financial targets and strategic goals subject to approval by the board of managers of Fathom OpCo. In 2020, Messrs. Martin and Stump had target bonus opportunities equal to an initial target of 40% of their base salaries, up to a maximum of 80% of their base salaries, and Mr. Freeburg had a target bonus opportunity equal to 40% of his base salary.
 
   
Long-Term Equity Incentives.
Historically, Fathom OpCo maintained the MCT Group Holdings, LLC 2019 Phantom Equity Bonus Plan (the “MCT Phantom Plan”) and the Incodema Holdings LLC 2020 Phantom Equity Bonus Plan (the “Incodema Phantom Plan”, together with the MCT Phantom Plan, the “Prior Phantom Plans”). The NEOs participated under the MCT Phantom Plan and were eligible to receive awards of phantom equity at the discretion of the board of managers of MCT Holdings. In 2020, no phantom equity awards were granted to the NEOs.
 
      
Phantom equity awarded to the NEOs under the MCT Phantom Plan was subject to the following vesting conditions: (i) 25% would vest subject to the NEO’s continued service with the MCT Group on each of the first four anniversaries of the NEO’s employment commencement date, and would be accelerated in connection with a change in control of MCT Holdings; and (ii) 75% would vest if MCT Holdings’ investors realized a multiple on invested capital equal to at least 2.0x in connection with a change in control of MCT Holdings. In connection with the Reorganization, the Prior Phantom Plans and all awards thereunder were terminated and replaced by a single phantom equity plan sponsored by Fathom OpCo and new awards thereunder, all of which contain terms and conditions that are substantially similar to the Prior Phantom Plans (the “Combined Phantom Plan”) and awards. The Combined Phantom Plan has a pool of phantom units equal to up to 10% of the total value receivable by common unit holders of Fathom OpCo on a sale of Fathom OpCo. Only 68.3% of the pool, or 6.83% of the total value receivable by common unit holders of Fathom OpCo on a sale of Fathom OpCo, has been granted.

pre-tax
or Roth deferrals in accordance with the limitations imposed under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The plan permits a discretionary match. In 2020, MCT provided eligible employees with matching contributions equal to 25% of a participant’s eligible 401(k) compensation, subject to limitations imposed under the Code.

Post-Business Combination Company Executive Compensation
Following the completion of the Business Combination, Fathom intends to develop an executive compensation program that is designed to align compensation with Fathom’s business objectives and the creation of stockholder value, while enabling Fathom to attract, motivate and retain individuals who contribute to the long-term success of Fathom. Decisions on the executive compensation program will be made by the compensation committee of the board of directors.
In addition, following the consummation of the Business Combination, all vested time-based phantom unit awards under the Combined Phantom Plan outstanding immediately prior to the consummation of the Merger and held by individuals who are employed by or performing services for Fathom OpCo or its subsidiaries or affiliates as of the Closing, will be forfeited and cancelled and such holders shall receive grants of restricted shares of Fathom Class A Common Stock under the 2021 Omnibus Plan. The restricted shares shall not vest until the date the Form
S-8
is filed registering the 2021 Omnibus Plan shares; provided, that, the vested, unrestricted shares of Fathom Class A common stock received in settlement of the restricted shares shall be subject to the following transfer restrictions: (i) 25% of the shares received may be traded upon the expiration of the
lock-up
period applicable to the shares of Fathom Class A common stock held by the CORE Investors and the CORE Affiliates; (ii) 25% of the shares received may be traded if the CORE Investors and the CORE Affiliates collectively Sell-Down an Investor Cumulative Sale Percentage equal to at least 60%; (iii) 25% of the shares received may be traded if the CORE Investors and the CORE Affiliates collectively Sell-Down an Investor Cumulative Sale Percentage equal to at least 80%; and (iv) 25% of the shares received may be traded if the CORE Investors and the CORE Affiliates collectively Sell-Down an Investor Cumulative Sale Percentage equal to at least 95% (the “Fathom Transfer Restrictions”).

Table of Contents
In addition, following the consummation of the Business Combination, all unvested time-based phantom unit awards and performance-based phantom unit awards held by individuals who are employed by or performing services for Fathom OpCo or its subsidiaries or affiliates as of the Closing shall be forfeited and cancelled and such holders shall receive grants of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) with respect to Fathom Class A Common Stock under the 2021 Omnibus Plan, with time-based RSUs being granted to replace time-based phantom units and performance-based RSUs being granted to replace performance-based phantom units. The time-based vesting RSUs shall have the same vesting schedule as the time-based vesting units. Once a time-based RSU is vested, any share deliverable to the RSU holder will be subject to the Fathom Transfer Restrictions.
The performance-based vesting RSUs shall vest subject to the holder’s continued service through each of the following vesting events: (i) 25% of the RSUs will vest if the CORE Investors and the CORE Affiliates collectively Sell-Down an Investor Cumulative Sale Percentage equal to at least 60%; (ii) 25% of the RSUs will vest if the CORE Investors and the CORE Affiliates collectively Sell-Down an Investor Cumulative Sale Percentage equal to at least 80%; and (iii) 50% of the RSUs will vest if the CORE Investors and the CORE Affiliates collectively Sell-Down an Investor Cumulative Sale Percentage equal to at least 95%.
For purposes of this section, the following terms have the following meanings:
“CORE Investors” means CORE Industrial Partners Fund I, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, CORE Industrial Partners Fund I Parallel, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, CORE Fund I
Holdings-2,
L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, and CORE Fund I
Holdings-5
LP, a Delaware limited partnership.
“CORE Affiliates” means, with respect to the CORE Investors, any person directly controlled by, directly controlling or under direct common control with the CORE Investors. For the avoidance of doubt, CORE Affiliates shall not include
co-investors
of the CORE Investors.
“Investor Cumulative Sale Percentage” means, on any date of determination, in the case of a Going Public Transaction, a percentage equal to the quotient of (A) a number equal to the aggregate number of shares of Fathom Class A common stock subject to a Sell-Down by the CORE Investors and the CORE Affiliates from and after the consummation of the Fathom OpCo’s Going Public Transaction and to and including such date, divided by (B) the aggregate number of shares of Fathom Class A common stock held by the CORE Investors and the CORE Affiliates upon the consummation of the Going Public Transaction and prior to any Sell-Down by the CORE Investors and the CORE Affiliates. The Investor Cumulative Sale Percentage may be adjusted to account for any stock splits, reverse stock splits, combinations, or similar structural changes to the shares of Fathom Class A common stock. For the avoidance of doubt, if, on the date of determination, the calculation of the Investor Cumulative Sale Percentage results in either the vesting of RSUs or the removal of certain restrictions on the transfer of shares of Fathom Class A common stock as described herein, then any release of any
earn-out
shares shall not negate the result of such vesting trigger being achieved or transfer restriction being removed.
“Going Public Transaction” means (i) the consummation of Fathom OpCo’s first underwritten Public Offering of its common stock under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or (ii) whether in one or a series of transactions, any merger, consolidation or other business combination pursuant to which the business of Fathom OpCo is combined with that of a special purpose acquisition company or other blank-check company that has a class of equity securities publicly listed on the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq.

Board of Managers Compensation

Background on Named Executive Officer Determination
section, since the formation of Fathom OpCo and the Reorganization occurred in April 2021, Fathom OpCo’s
non-employee
managers for purposes of this disclosure are the members of the board of managers of both MCT Holdings and Incodema Holdings. The boards of managers for MCT Holdings and Incodema Holdings set
non-employee
manager compensation based on each manager’s prior experience. The compensation program is designed to provide competitive compensation necessary to attract and retain high quality
non-employee
managers and to encourage ownership of Fathom OpCo’s equity to further align their interests with those of its equityholders. As reflected below, Messrs. Chung, May, Puglisi, Papa and Rascia are ineligible to receive compensation for their service on the board of managers of MCT Holdings and/or Incodema Holdings, as each is serving on behalf of CORE Industrial Partners. Messrs. Nardelli and Chen, who served as
non-employee
managers of MCT Holdings, were eligible for the following compensation in connection with their role as managers:
 
   
An annual cash retainer, the amount of which is based on the manager’s past experience, with Mr. Nardelli receiving $50,000 per year and Mr. Chen receiving $40,000 per year; and
 
   
An initial phantom unit award consisting of units of MCT Holdings, subject to the following vesting conditions: (i) 25% would vest subject to the
non-employee
manager’s continued service with MCT Holdings or Incodema Holdings on each of the first four anniversaries of the
non-employee
manager’s board commencement date, and would be accelerated in connection with a change in control of MCT Holdings; and (ii) 75% would vest if MCT Holdings investors realized a multiple on invested capital equal to at least 2.0x in connection with a change in control of MCT Holdings. Messrs. Nardelli and Chen received initial grants of 500 phantom units and 250 phantom units of MCT Holdings, respectively, on January 1, 2020. Like the NEOs, members of the MCT Holdings and Incodema Holdings boards of managers with phantom awards under the Prior Phantom Plans had their awards terminated in connection with the Reorganization and received new awards under the Combined Phantom Plan.
As part of his board of managers’ compensation package, Mr. Nardelli was eligible to enter into a co-investment arrangement with the Company, described in more detail under
“Fathom OpCo Related Person Transactions – Nardelli Investment
.” In addition, in connection with his service as a manager of the board, Mr. Chen entered into a consulting agreement, dated August 3, 2020, with MCT Holdings, under which he provided consulting services to MCT Holdings to improve their operational processes in exchange for a monthly consulting fee of $3,333.33 per month (the “Chen Consulting Agreement”). Mr. Chen also served as Chief Executive Officer of the Incodema Group starting in August of 2020.

Biographical information for Messrs. Martin, Stump and Frost is set forth under “
Management of Fathom OpCo Prior to the Business Combination
.”
Board Composition
Our Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws provide for a classified board of directors consisting of three classes of directors, each serving staggered three-year terms, as follows:
Our Class I directors are          and             , and their initial term will expire at the initial annual meeting of stockholders for the calendar year ended December 31, 2022.
Our Class II directors are             ,              and              and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders for the calendar year ended December 31, 2023.
Our Class III directors are              and              and their terms will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders for the calendar year ended December 31, 2024.
Upon expiration of the term of a class of directors, directors for that class will be elected for three-year terms at the annual meeting of stockholders in the year in which that term expires. Each director’s term continues until the election and qualification of his or her successor or his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. Any increase or decrease in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of an equal number of directors.
In addition, in connection with the Business Combination, we entered into an investor rights agreement pursuant to which we granted to the CORE Investors the right to designate nominees to our Board of Directors subject to the maintenance of certain ownership requirements. See “
Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Investor Rights Agreement
” for additional information.
Director Independence
NYSE listing standards require that a majority of the board of directors be independent, subject to the controlled company exception. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship which in the opinion of the board of directors, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
Potential Controlled Company Exemption
Immediately following the completion of the Business Combination, the CORE Investors are expected to beneficially own approximately 45% of our Class A common stock and Class B common stock, which will generally vote together as a single class on matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders, including the election
 
280

Table of Contents
of directors (or 51.5% assuming maximum redemptions by Altimar II Public Shareholders). If more than 50% of the voting power for the election of directors of Fathom is held by an individual, a group or another company, including the CORE Investors, Fathom would qualify as a “controlled company” under the NYSE listing requirements. If following the completion of the Business Combination, the CORE Investors control a majority of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock, Fathom would qualify as, and would expect to elect to be treated as, a “controlled company” under the NYSE listing standards and in such case would not be subject to the requirements that would otherwise require us to have: (i) a majority of “independent directors,” as defined under the listing standards of the NYSE; (ii) a nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors; (iii) compensation of our executive officers determined by a majority of the independent directors or a compensation committee comprised solely of independent directors; and (iv) director nominees selected, or recommended for the Board’s selection, either by a majority of the independent directors or a nominating committee comprised solely of independent directors.
Pursuant to the New York Stock Exchange listing standards, if following the completion of the Business Combination Fathom is categorized as a controlled company, Fathom will not be required to have a board of directors composed of a majority of independent directors. An “independent director” is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship which in the opinion of the board of directors, would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.
Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation
Following the consummation of the Business Combination, Fathom’s compensation committee will consist of             ,             ,             and             . None of the expected members of Fathom’s compensation committee has at any time been an officer or employee of Altimar II. None of Fathom’s executive officers currently serves, or in the past fiscal year has served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee (or other board committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of any entity that has one or more executive officers on Altimar II’s or Fathom’s compensation committee or board of directors.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination, Fathom will adopt a code of business conduct and ethics that will apply to all of its employees, officers and directors, including those officers responsible for financial reporting. The code of business conduct and ethics will be available after the Closing on Fathom’s website at www.                .com. Fathom expects that, to the extent required by law, any amendments to the code, or any waivers of its requirements, will be disclosed on its website.
Limitation on Liability and Indemnification Matters
Fathom’s certificate of incorporation that will become effective immediately following the consummation of the Business Combination and will contain provisions that limit the personal liability of Fathom’s directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Consequently, Fathom’s directors will not be personally liable to Fathom or its stockholders arising from a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, unless:
 
   
the presumption that directors are acting in good faith, on an informed basis, and with a view to the best interests of Fathom and its stockholders has been rebutted; and
 
   
it is proven that the director’s act or failure to act constituted a breach of his or her fiduciary duties as a director and such breach involved intentional misconduct, a knowing violation of law or receipt of an improper personal benefit.

Post-Combination Company Executive Compensation
Overview
Following the closing of the Business Combination, we expect Fathom’s executive compensation program to be consistent with Fathom OpCo’s existing compensation policies and philosophies, which are designed to:
 
   
attract, retain and motivate senior management leaders who are capable of advancing our mission and strategy and ultimately, creating and maintaining our long-term equity value. Such leaders must engage in a collaborative approach and possess the ability to execute our business strategy in an industry characterized by competitiveness and growth;
 
   
reward senior management in a manner aligned with our financial performance; and
 
   
align senior management’s interests with our equity owners’ long-term interests through equity participation and ownership.
Following the closing of the Business Combination, decisions with respect to the compensation of our executive officers will be made by the compensation committee of the board of directors of Fathom. The following discussion is based on the present expectations as to the compensation of our executive officers and directors following the Business Combination. The actual compensation of our executive officers will depend on the judgment of the members of the compensation committee of the board of directors of Fathom and may differ from that set forth in the following discussion.
We anticipate that compensation for our executive officers will have the following components: base salary, cash bonus opportunities, long-term incentive compensation, broad-based employee benefits, supplemental executive perquisites and severance benefits. These benefits will be designed to attract and retain senior management talent. We also expect to use annual cash bonuses and long-term equity awards to promote performance-based pay that aligns the interests of our executive officers with the long-term interests of our equity-owners and to enhance executive retention. At the time of this filing, no new employment agreements with any executive officers of Fathom are contemplated.
Base Salary
We expect that our executive officers’ base salaries in effect prior to the Business Combination will continue, subject to potential increases made in connection with the negotiation of any employment agreements or Fathom’s annual review of its executive officers’ base salaries. Following the Business Combination, our executive officers’ base salaries will be reviewed annually by the compensation committee of the board of directors of Fathom.
Annual Bonuses
We expect that Fathom will use annual cash incentive bonuses for the executive officers to motivate their achievement of short-term performance goals and tie a portion of their cash compensation to performance. We expect that, near the beginning of each year, the compensation committee of the board of directors of Fathom will select the performance targets, target amounts, target award opportunities and other terms and conditions of annual cash bonuses for the executive officers, subject to the terms of their employment agreements. Following the end of each year, the compensation committee of the Fathom board of directors will determine the extent to which the performance targets were achieved and the amount of the award that is payable to the executive officers.
Stock-Based Awards
We expect Fathom to use stock-based awards in future years as an incentive for executives to remain in our service and aligning the executives’ interests with those of Fathom’s equityholders. Any stock-based awards will
 
282

Table of Contents
be awarded in future years under the 2021 Omnibus Plan. For a description of the 2021 Omnibus Plan, please see “Proposal No. 7 — The Equity Incentive Plan Proposal.”
Other Compensation
We expect Fathom to continue to maintain various employee benefit plans currently maintained by Fathom OpCo, including medical, dental, vision, life insurance and 401(k) plans, paid time off and holidays and employee assistance program benefits in which the executive officers will participate. We also expect Fathom to continue to provide its executive officers with specified perquisites and personal benefits currently provided by Fathom OpCo that are not generally available to all employees. For additional details, please see “Executive and Director Compensation of Fathom OpCo.”
In addition, to encourage employee stock ownership, we expect to offer employees an opportunity to participate in an employee stock purchase plan under the ESPP to align employee interests with those of Fathom’s stockholders, and to enhance the ability of Fathom to attract, motivate and retain qualified employees. An employee stock ownership plan will offer a convenient means for our employees who might not otherwise own our common stock to purchase and hold shares. For a description of the ESPP, please see “
Proposal No. 8 - The ESPP Proposal
.”
Director Compensation
Following the Business Combination,
non-employee
directors of Fathom will receive varying levels of compensation for their services as directors and members of committees of Fathom’s board of directors. Fathom anticipates determining
non-employee
director compensation in accordance with industry practice and standards. Altimar II and Fathom OpCo have agreed to an annual limit of $900,000 on
non-employee
director compensation with respect to the board of directors of Fathom; provided, that any Awards granted under the Plan or other compensation received by a non-employee director related to the settlement, conversion or substitution of the non-employee director’s award(s) under the Fathom Holdco, LLC Phantom Equity Bonus Plan (also referred to as the Combined Phantom Plan) shall not count against such limit.

Related Party Transaction Policy Following the Business Combination
Upon consummation of the Business Combination, Fathom will adopt a written related person transaction policy that sets forth the following policies and procedures for the review and approval or ratification of related person transactions.
A “Related Person Transaction” is a transaction, arrangement or relationship in which Fathom or any of its subsidiaries was, is or will be a participant, the amount of which involved exceeds $120,000, and in which any related person had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
A “Related Person” means:
 
   
any person who is, or at any time during the applicable period was, one of the Fathom’s officers or one of Fathom’s directors;
 
   
any person who is known by Fathom to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of its voting stock;
 
   
any immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons, which means any child, stepchild, parent, stepparent, spouse, sibling,
mother-in-law,
father-in-law,
daughter-in-law,
brother-in-law
or
sister-in-law
of a director, officer or a beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of its voting stock, and any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the household of such director, officer or beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of its voting stock; and
 
   
any firm, corporation or other entity in which any of the foregoing persons is a partner or principal or in a similar position or in which such person has a ten percent (10%) or greater beneficial ownership interest.
Fathom will have policies and procedures designed to minimize potential conflicts of interest arising from any dealings it may have with its affiliates and to provide appropriate procedures for the disclosure of any real or potential conflicts of interest that may exist from time to time. Specifically, pursuant to its charter, the audit committee will have the responsibility to review related party transactions.
All of the transactions described in this section were entered into prior to the adoption of this policy. Certain of the foregoing disclosures are summaries of certain provisions of our related party agreements, and are

Table of Contents
qualified in their entirety by reference to all of the provisions of such agreements. Because these descriptions are only summaries of the applicable agreements, they do not necessarily contain all of the information that you may find useful. Copies of certain of the agreements (or forms of the agreements) have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, and are available electronically on the website of the SEC at www.sec.gov..
Indemnification
Effective immediately upon the consummation of the Business Combination, we will enter into indemnification agreements with each of the newly elected directors and newly appointed executive officers which provide that we will indemnify such directors and executive officers under the circumstances and to the extent provided for therein, from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, joint or several, expenses (including legal fees and expenses), judgments, fines, penalties, interest, settlements or other amounts arising from any and all threatened, pending or completed claim, demand, action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, and whether formal or informal, and including appeals, in which he or she may be involved, or is threatened to be involved, as a party or otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law and
our by-laws.
Altimar II Related Person Transactions
PIPE Investment

On July 15, 2021, The Scott B. Kapnick 2016 Revocable Trust entered into a Subscription Agreement to subscribe for 1,000,000 shares of Class A common stock at a purchase price of $10,000,000. Mr. Kapnick is the Chief Executive Officer and a Governing Partner of HPS Investment Partners, LLC, an affiliate of Sponsor.
For a detailed description of the Subscription Agreements, see the section entitled,
“The Business Combination Agreement –
Subscription Agreements
.”
Other
On December 15, 2020, the Sponsor paid $25,000, or approximately $0.003 per share, to cover certain of Altimar II’s offering and formation costs in consideration of 8,625,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001.
On January 28, 2021, the Sponsor transferred 25,000 founder shares to certain of Altimar II’s directors, namely Kevin L. Beebe, Payne D. Brown, Richard M. Jelinek, Roma Khanna, Michael Rubenstein, Vijay K. Sondhi and Michael Vorhaus, resulting in the Sponsor holding 8,450,000 Founder Shares. Up to 1,125,000 founder shares were subject to forfeiture by the Sponsor depending on the extent to which the underwriters exercised their over-allotment option in connection with Altimar II’s IPO. As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option on February 9, 2021, the 1,125,000 founder shares were not subject to forfeiture. The founder shares (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise thereof) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder.
The Sponsor purchased, pursuant to a written agreement, an aggregate of 9,900,000 Private Placement Warrants for a purchase price of $1.00 per whole warrant in a private placement that occurred concurrently with the closing of the IPO. Each private placement warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment. The Private Placement Warrants (including the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise thereof) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder until 30 days after the completion of an initial business combination.
Altimar II currently maintains its executive offices at 40 West 57th Street, 33rd Floor, New York, NY 10019. The cost for Altimar II’s use of this space is included in the $10,000 per month fee Altimar II pays to an affiliate of the Sponsor for office space and secretarial and administrative services. Upon completion of an initial business combination or Altimar II’s liquidation, Altimar II will cease paying these monthly fees.
 
289

Table of Contents
No compensation of any kind, including finder’s and consulting fees, will be paid to the Sponsor, officers and directors, or their respective affiliates, for services rendered prior to or in connection with the completion of an initial business combination. However, these individuals will be reimbursed for any
out-of-pocket
expenses incurred in connection with activities on Altimar II’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. Altimar II’s audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made by Altimar II to the Sponsor, officers, directors or their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of
out-of-pocket
expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on Altimar II’s behalf.
On December 15, 2020, Altimar II issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) to the Sponsor, pursuant to which Altimar II could borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note was
non-interest
bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021 and (ii) the completion of the IPO. The outstanding balance under the Promissory Note of $94,890 was repaid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering on February 9, 2021.
In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of Altimar II’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan Altimar II funds as may be required (the “Working Capital Loans”). If Altimar II completes an initial business combination, it may repay such loaned amounts out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to Altimar II. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, Altimar II may use a portion of the working capital held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Except for the foregoing, the terms of the Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to the Working Capital Loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $2,000,000 of the Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of December 31, 2020, there were no amounts outstanding under the Working Capital Loans. Altimar II does not expect to seek loans from parties other than the Sponsor, its affiliates or its management team as it does not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in the Trust Account.
In connection with the IPO, Altimar II entered into a registration and shareholder rights agreement pursuant to which our initial shareholders are entitled to certain registration rights with respect to the Private Placement Warrants, the warrants issuable upon conversion of working capital loans (if any) and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the foregoing and upon conversion of the founder shares, and, upon consummation of an initial business combination, to nominate three individuals for appointment to Altimar II’s board of directors, as long as the initial shareholders hold any securities covered by the registration and shareholder rights agreement. Altimar II will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Policy for Approval of Related Party Transactions
The audit committee of Altimar II’s board of directors has adopted a charter providing for the review, approval and/or ratification of “related party transactions,” which are those transactions required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation
S-K
as promulgated by the SEC, by the audit committee. At its meetings, the audit committee shall be provided with the details of each new, existing, or proposed related party transaction, including the terms of the transaction, any contractual restrictions that Altimar II has already committed to, the business purpose of the transaction, and the benefits of the transaction to Altimar II and to the relevant related party. Any member of the committee who has an interest in the related party transaction under review by the committee shall abstain from voting on the approval of the related party transaction, but may, if so requested by the chairman of the committee, participate in some or all of the committee’s discussions of the related party transaction. Upon completion of its review of the related party transaction, the committee may determine to permit or to prohibit the related party transaction.

FATHOM INDEBTEDNESS
2021 Term Loan
On April 30, 2021, Fathom OpCo obtained a $172 million term loan (the “2021 Term Loan”) from JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as lender and administrative agent for the other lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “April 2021 Lenders’) in order to (i) finance its acquisitions of Centex Machine and Welding, Inc., Laser Manufacturing, Inc., Sureshot Precision, LLC d/b/a MicropulseWest, and Precision Process Corporation, and (ii) refinance Fathom OpCo’s then outstanding long-term debt. The 2021 Term Loan is due for repayment on April 29, 2022.
The interest rate per annum applicable to 2021 Term Loan is, at the option of Fathom OpCo, equal to either an alternate base rate (“ABR Loans”) or an adjusted LIBO rate for a
one-,
two-,
three-,
six-
or twelve month interest period (“LIBO Loans”), in each case plus an applicable margin. The alternate base rate, means the greatest of (i) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.’s prime rate,
(ii) one-half
of 1% over the weighted average of rates on overnight Federal Funds as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, (iii) the adjusted LIBO rate for a one month interest period and (iv) 1%. The adjusted LIBO rate is determined by reference to settlement rates established for deposits in the currency of the applicable borrowing in the London or European interbank market for a period equal to the interest period of the applicable loan and the maximum reserve percentages established by the Board of Governors of the U.S. Federal Reserve to which the administrative agent is subject.    The applicable margin with respect to any portion of the 2021 Term Loan comprised of ABR Loans ranges from 2.50% to 3.00% depending on the gross leverage ratio, subject to prospective adjustment on a quarterly basis. The applicable margin with respect to any portion of the 2021 Term Loan comprised of LIBO Loans ranges from 3.50% to 4.00% depending on the gross leverage ratio, subject to prospective adjustment on a quarterly basis.
Additionally, the applicable margin with respect to the 2021 Term Loan is subject to step ups of 100 percentage points for each period of 90 days that the 2021 Term Loan remains outstanding after the initial draw date thereof (with such
step-up
component capping out a 400 percentage points in the aggregate). As of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, the per annum rate of interest applicable to the entire 2021 Term Loan is the adjusted LIBO rate for a
3-month
interest period. Additionally, the principal amount outstanding under the 2021 Term Loan as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus was $172 million and there was no availability for further drawdowns under the facility.
The 2021 Term Loan was undertaken as bridge financing while Fathom OpCo sought to identify and complete a significant capital transaction such as the Business Combination that would enable Fathom OpCo to obtain long-term refinancing of its debt on commercially reasonable terms. If Fathom OpCo is unable to complete a significant capital transaction such as the Business Combination prior to April 9, 2022, and obtain funding of the credit facilities provided for under the New Credit Agreement described below, it expects that it would not have sufficient funds on hand and from cash flow from operations to repay the 2021 Term Loan when it matures on April 29, 2022. The Business Combination Agreement and the Closing are subject to customary closing conditions, some of which as is typical are out of Fathom OpCo’s control and, as a consequence, there can be no guarantee that the Business Combination and the funding of the New Credit Agreement will be completed. Accordingly, Grant Thornton LLP, Fathom OpCo’s independent registered public accounting firm/independent certified public accountants, included a going concern emphasis paragraph in its audit report covering the audited financial statements of Fathom OpCo included in this proxy statement/prospectus.
See
“Risk Factors – Risks Related to the Business Combination and Altimar II –The audit report we received with respect to our audited financial statements for the years ended December
 31, 2020 and December
 31, 2019 included emphasis of a matter regarding going concern. We must raise additional capital before April
 29, 2022 to refinance our debt, and funding of the credit facilities provided for under our New Credit Agreement for this purpose is conditioned upon the completion of the Business Combination.”

Table of Contents
New Credit Agreement
On July 9, 2021, Fathom OpCo agreed to enter into a new credit agreement (the “New Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and certain other lenders (the “New Lenders”) which, when funded, will provide a $50 million revolving credit facility and a $125 million term loan. The proceeds from the New Credit Agreement will be used to repay the 2021 Term Loan. The loans to be made under the New Credit Agreement will mature in 2026. Funding of loans under the New Credit Agreement is conditioned upon Fathom OpCo completing a business combination with a publicly traded special purpose acquisition company, such as the Business Combination with Altimar II, before April 9, 2022 (the “SPAC Transaction”). In addition, funding of the loans under the New Credit Agreement is further conditioned on the cash proceeds of the SPAC Transaction being in excess of $313 million (or a lesser amount if mutually agreed by Fathom OpCo and Altimar II) of which not less than $30 million shall be contributed to Fathom OpCo to repay certain indebtedness and to fund balance sheet cash.
The revolving credit facility under the New Credit Agreement will be available for working capital and other general corporate purposes and will include a letter of credit
sub-facility
of up to $5 million. The New Credit Agreement will also include an uncommitted incremental facility, which, subject to certain conditions, will provide for additional term loan facilities, an increase in commitments under the New Credit Agreement and/or an increase in commitments under the revolving credit facility, in an aggregate amount of up to $100 million.
Fathom OpCo’s obligations under the New Credit Agreement will be guaranteed by Fathom OpCo and its subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions. Loans under the New Credit Agreement will be secured by substantially all of the tangible and intangible assets of Fathom OpCo and the guarantors under the New Credit Agreement, subject to permitted liens and certain exceptions. Fathom OpCo and its subsidiaries will be subject under the New Credit Agreement to customary affirmative and negative covenants, including limitations on their ability to incur additional indebtedness and engage in certain business transactions, such as distributions and other restricted payments, acquisitions and other investments and mergers. In addition, the New Credit Agreement contains two financial maintenance covenants, which will require Fathom OpCo to (1) comply with a maximum Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the New Credit Agreement) and (2) maintain a minimum Interest Coverage Ratio (as defined in the New Credit Agreement). Events of default under the New Credit Agreement include, among other things, nonpayment of principal when due, nonpayment of interest, fees or other amounts after a grace period, material inaccuracy of representations and warranties, violation of covenants (subject, in the case of certain affirmative covenants, to a grace period) cross-event of default to material debt, bankruptcy events, certain ERISA events, default under uninsured material judgments, certain changes of control, actual or asserted invalidity of the New Credit Agreement and
non-perfection
of the security interest on any material portion of the collateral. If an event of default occurs under the New Credit Agreement, after the expiration of any applicable cure period, the New Lenders will be permitted to declare all outstanding borrowings under the New Credit Agreement immediately due and payable. If the New Credit Agreement is funded, there can be no guarantee that Fathom OpCo will be able to maintain compliance with all covenants under the New Credit Facility in the future and, if Fathom OpCo fails to comply with any such covenants, that waivers from the New Lenders will be obtained.

Common Stock
Class A common stock
We expect to have approximately 76,559,917 shares of Class A common stock outstanding immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination, assuming that none of Altimar II’s outstanding Class A ordinary shares are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination. The 76,559,917 shares of Class A common stock includes (i) 8,000,000 shares of Class A common stock issued as part of the PIPE investment, (ii) 7,357,500 shares of Class A common stock resulting from the conversion of the Altimar II Founders’ Class B ordinary shares into Class C common stock as part of the Domestication and subsequent automatic conversion into shares of Class A common stock, (iii) the conversion of Altimar II’s 34,500,000 shares of Class A ordinary shares into 34,500,000 shares of Class A common stock and (iv) 26,702,417 shares of Class A common stock issued as part of the merger consideration contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement. The 76,559,917 shares of Class A common stock excludes (i) the Sponsor Earnout, (ii) the Earnout and (iii) Class A common stock underlying the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants.
We expect to have approximately 67,781,950 shares of Class A common stock outstanding immediately after the consummation of the Business Combination, assuming the maximum redemptions scenario described in this proxy statement/prospectus. The 67,781,950 shares of Class A common stock includes (i) 8,000,000 shares of Class A common stock issued as part of the PIPE Investment, (ii) 6,388,750 shares of Class A common stock resulting from (x) the conversion of the Altimar II Founders’ Class B ordinary shares into Class C common stock as part of the Domestication, (y) the forfeiture by the Altimar II Founders of 968,750 shares of Class C common stock pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and the Forfeiture and Support Agreement and (z) the subsequent automatic conversion of the remaining shares of Class C common stock into shares of Class A common stock, (iii) the conversion of Altimar II’s 23,300,000 shares of Class A ordinary shares into 23,300,000 shares of Class A common stock and (iv) 30,093,200 shares of Class A common stock issued as part of the merger consideration contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement. The 67,781,950 shares of Class A common stock excludes (i) the Sponsor Earnout, (ii) the Earnout and (iii) Class A common stock underlying the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants.
Voting rights
. Each holder of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote for each share of Class A common stock held of record by such holder on all matters on which stockholders generally are entitled to vote. Holders of Class A common stock will vote together with the holders of Class B common stock and Class C

Table of Contents
common stock as a single class on all matters presented to the Company’s stockholders for their vote or approval. Generally, subject to the Investor Rights Agreement and except for certain matters requiring supermajority approval by the Proposed Charter as described below under “
— Supermajority Approval Requirements
,” all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of the votes entitled to be cast by all stockholders present in person or represented by proxy, voting together as a single class. Stockholders do not have the ability to cumulate votes for the election of directors. The Proposed Charter provides for a classified board of directors consisting of three classes of approximately equal size, each serving staggered three-year terms. Only one class of directors will be elected at each annual meeting of our stockholders, with the other classes continuing for the remainder of their respective three-year terms.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the fullest extent permitted by law, holders of common stock, as such, will have no voting power with respect to, and will not be entitled to vote on, any amendment to the Proposed Charter (including any certificate of designations relating to any series of preferred stock) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of preferred stock, if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to the Proposed Charter (including any certificate of designations relating to any series of preferred stock) or pursuant to the DGCL.
Dividend Rights
. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of shares of Class A common stock will be entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time on Common Stock having dividend rights by our board of directors out of funds legally available therefor.
Rights upon liquidation
. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company’s affairs, the holders of Class A common stock will be entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of Fathom’s debts and other liabilities, subject to
pari passu
and prior distribution rights of preferred stock or any class or series of stock having a preference over the Class A common stock, then outstanding, if any.
Other rights
. Except as provided in the Investor Rights Agreement (as applicable), the holders of Class A common stock will have no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There will be no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the Class A common stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of the Class A common stock will be subject to those of the holders of any shares of the preferred stock the Company may issue in the future and to the Investor Rights Agreement, as applicable.
Subject to the transfer and exchange restrictions set forth in the Fathom Operating Agreement, holders of Fathom OpCo Units may exchange these units for shares of our Class A common stock, on a
one-for-one
basis or, at the election of an exchange committee of Fathom OpCo, for cash. When a Fathom OpCo Unit is exchanged, a corresponding share of our Class B common stock, depending on the holder, will automatically be transferred to us and retired for no consideration.
Class B common stock
Upon completion of the Business Combination, and assuming that none of Altimar II’s outstanding Class A ordinary shares are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination, we expect there to be approximately 67,772,847 shares of our Class B common stock outstanding (including shares of Class B common stock corresponding to the portion of Earnout Shares issued initially in the form of New Fathom Units and subject to vesting and forfeiture events). Shares of Class B common stock will be issued to Continuing Fathom Unitholders who are receiving New Fathom Units (i) in connection with the Business Combination and (ii) upon the occurrence of a Triggering Event with respect to a Seller Earnout Unit (as determined pursuant to the formulation and definition described under “The Business Combination Agreement—Earnout”). All shares of Class B common stock to be issued in connection with the Business Combination will be fully paid and
non-assessable.
There is no trading market for the Class B common stock.

Table of Contents
Voting Rights
. Holders of our Class B common stock will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, holders of Class B common stock will vote together with holders of Class A common stock and Class C common stock as a single class on all matters presented to Fathom’s stockholders for their vote or approval, except as otherwise required by the Proposed Charter and applicable law.
Dividend Rights
. Holders of the Class B common stock will not be entitled to dividends in respect of their shares of Class B common stock.
Rights upon liquidation
. The holders of shares of Class B common stock, as such, shall not be entitled to receive any assets of Fathom in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company’s affairs. We refer to the Class B common stock as “vote-only” shares.
Redemption of Class
 B common stock for Class
 A common stock
. Shares of Class B common stock are redeemable for shares of Class A common stock on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Fathom Operating Agreement. The Company may satisfy its or its affiliates’ obligations in respect of any redemption of shares of Class B common stock under the Fathom Operating Agreement by delivering (either directly or indirectly through an affiliate) to the holder of shares of Class B common stock upon such redemption, in lieu of newly issued shares of Class A common stock, cash in the amount permitted by and provided in the Fathom Operating Agreement or shares of Class A common stock which are held in the treasury of Fathom. All shares of Class A common stock that may be issued upon any such redemption will, upon issuance in accordance with the Fathom Operating Agreement, be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable.
All shares of Class B common stock so redeemed for Class A common stock shall be cancelled.
Other rights
. Except as provided in the Investor Rights Agreement (as applicable), the holders of Class B common stock will have no preemptive or other subscription rights. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of the Class B common stock will be subject to those of the holders of any shares of the preferred stock Fathom may issue in the future and to the Investor Rights Agreement, as applicable.
Issuance and Transfer
. There will be no further issuances of Class B common stock except in connection with (i) a stock split, stock dividend, reclassification or similar transaction, (ii) an issuance of Fathom OpCo Units or (iii) a Triggering Event occurring with respect to a Seller Earnout Unit. When a Fathom OpCo Unit is exchanged pursuant to the Fathom Operating Agreement, a corresponding share of our Class B common stock will automatically be transferred to us and retired for no consideration. Class B common stock is not transferable unless a corresponding number of Fathom OpCo Units are simultaneously transferred to the same person.
Class C common stock
Upon the effectiveness of the Domestication, there will be 8,625,000 shares of our Class C common stock outstanding resulting from the conversion of a like number of Class B ordinary shares. Upon consummation of the Business Combination, all remaining shares of Class C common stock then outstanding will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock, subject to forfeiture by the Altimar II Founders of a portion of their shares of Class C common stock pursuant to the Forfeiture and Support Agreement and Business Combination Agreement as described herein, and no further shares of Class C common stock will thereafter be issued.
Voting rights
. Holders of our Class C common stock will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders.
Dividend Rights
. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of shares of Class C common stock will be entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time on Common Stock having dividend rights by our board of directors out of funds legally available therefor.

Rights upon liquidation
. In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company’s affairs, the holders of Class C common stock will be entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of the Company’s debts and other liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock or any class or series of stock having a preference over the Class C common stock, then outstanding, if any.
Conversion into Class
 A common stock
. Shares of Class C common stock automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock on a
one-for-one
basis (the “Initial Conversion Ratio”) (a) at any time and from time to time at the option of the holder thereof; and (b) automatically on the day of the closing of a business combination. Notwithstanding the Initial Conversion Ratio, if additional shares of Class A common stock or any other equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the number offered in the IPO and related to the closing of a business combination, the ratio at which the outstanding shares of Class C common stock convert into shares of Class A common stock is adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class C common stock agree to waive such anti-dilution adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding shares of Class C common stock will equal, in the aggregate, 20% of the sum of all shares of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares outstanding upon completion of the IPO plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with such business combination, excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a such business combination.
Under the terms of the Forfeiture and Support Agreement, Sponsor agreed that, from and after the Closing, 1,267,500 shares of Altimar II Class B ordinary shares (or, following the Domestication, shares of Class C common stock or Class A common stock, as applicable) held by Sponsor (other than any shares of Altimar II common stock issued to Sponsor pursuant to the PIPE Investment) (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”) will be unvested and restricted and that such shares will vest automatically if (a) the VWAP of the Altimar II Class A Common Stock equals or exceeds $15.00 per share for any twenty (20) trading days within a period of thirty (30) consecutive trading days and (b) there is a change of control of Altimar II, unless the per share consideration to be received by the holders of Class A common stock in such change of control transaction is less than the vesting threshold applicable to the Sponsor Earnout Shares (each of (a) and (b), a “Vesting Event”). To the extent that, on or prior to the fifth (5
th
) anniversary of the Closing Date, a Vesting Event did not occur, all outstanding unvested Sponsor Earnout Shares will automatically be forfeited. In addition, pursuant to the Forfeiture and Support Agreement and the Business Combination Agreement, the Altimar II Founders also agreed that, effective upon and subject to the consummation of the Business Combination, they will irrevocably automatically forfeit and surrender, for no additional consideration and without any further action on the part of any other person, the Forfeited Shares, which they would otherwise receive upon the automatic conversion of shares of Class C common stock as a result of the consummation of the Business Combination.
Other rights
. The holders of Class C common stock will have no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There will be no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the Class C common stock. The rights, preferences and privileges of holders of the Class C common stock will be subject to those of the holders of any shares of the preferred stock the Company may issue in the future.
Preferred Stock
No shares of preferred stock will be issued or outstanding immediately after the completion of the Business Combination. The Proposed Charter will authorize the board of directors to establish one or more series of preferred stock in one or more classes or series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and related restrictions, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, the right to elect directors, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any class or series, or the designation of the class or series, without the approval of our stockholders.
 
296

Table of Contents
The authority of our board of directors to issue preferred stock without approval of our stockholders may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of Fathom and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of our common stock. The issuance of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock, including the loss of voting control to others. As a result of these or other factors, the issuance of preferred stock could have an adverse impact on the market price of the Class A common stock. At present, we have no plans to issue any preferred stock.
Authorized but Unissued Capital Stock
Delaware law does not require stockholder approval for any issuance of authorized shares. However, the listing requirements of The New York Stock Exchange, which would apply so long as the Class A common stock remains listed on the New York Stock Exchange, require stockholder approval of certain issuances equal to or exceeding 20% of the then outstanding voting power or then outstanding number of shares of Class A common stock. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings, to raise additional capital or to facilitate acquisitions.
One of the effects of the existence of unissued and unreserved common stock or preferred stock may be to enable our board of directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current management, which issuance could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of our company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and thereby protect the continuity of our management and possibly deprive the stockholders of opportunities to sell their shares of common stock at prices higher than prevailing market prices.
Anti-Takeover Effects of Provisions of Delaware Law and the Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws
Certain provisions of Charter and Proposed Bylaws could discourage potential acquisition proposals and could delay or prevent a change in control. These provisions are intended to enhance the likelihood of continuity and stability in the composition of our board of directors and in the policies formulated by our board of directors and to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control. These provisions are designed to reduce our vulnerability to an unsolicited acquisition proposal or proxy fight. Such provisions could have the effect of discouraging others from making tender offers for our shares and, as a consequence, they also may inhibit fluctuations in the market price of our Class A common stock that could result from actual or rumored takeover attempts. Such provisions also may have the effect of preventing changes in our management or delaying or preventing a transaction that might benefit you or other minority stockholders.
These provisions include:
No Action by Written Consent; Special Meetings of Stockholders
. The DGCL permits stockholder action by written consent unless otherwise provided by our certificate of incorporation. The Proposed Charter precludes holders of Common Stock from taking action by written consent. If permitted by the applicable certificate of designation, future series of preferred stock may take action by written consent. The Proposed Charter and the Proposed Bylaws provide that special meetings of stockholders may be called (i) only by the board of directors or the chairman of the board of directors pursuant to a written resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of the number of directors equal to a majority of the board assuming no vacancies or (ii) prior to the date on which CORE and its affiliates cease to beneficially own in the aggregate (directly or indirectly) at least 25% of the then outstanding Common Stock, by the chairman of the board of directors at the written request of holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding Common Stock. Further, any business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders is limited to the purpose or purposes included in the notice may be considered at such special meeting.
Election and Removal of Directors
. The DGCL provides that stockholders are not entitled to the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless the certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. The
 
297

Table of Contents
Proposed Charter does not expressly provide for cumulative voting. Directors may be removed, but only for cause (and subject to the Investor Rights Agreement), upon the affirmative vote of holders of
66-2/3%
of the voting power of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. In addition, the certificate of designation pursuant to which a particular series of preferred stock is issued may provide holders of that series of preferred stock with the right to elect additional directors. In addition, under the Proposed Charter, our board of directors is divided into three classes of directors, each of which will hold office for a three-year term. The existence of a classified board could delay a successful tender offeror from obtaining majority control of our board of directors, and the prospect of that delay might deter a potential offeror.
Supermajority Approval Requirements
. The Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws provide that our Board is expressly authorized to make, alter, amend, change, add to, rescind or repeal, in whole or in part, the Proposed Bylaws without a stockholder vote in any matter not inconsistent with the laws of the State of Delaware and the Proposed Charter. In addition, any amendment, alteration, change, addition, rescission or repeal of the Proposed Bylaws by our stockholders will require the affirmative vote of holders of
66-2/3%
in voting power of the outstanding shares of our stock entitled to vote on such amendment, alteration, change, addition, rescission or repeal.
The DGCL provides generally that the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, is required to amend a corporation’s certificate of incorporation, unless the certificate of incorporation requires a greater percentage. The Proposed Charter provides that the following provisions in the Proposed Charter may be amended, altered, repealed or rescinded only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
66-2/3%
(or, 80%, for the provision indicated below) in voting power of all the then-outstanding shares of stock of Fathom entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class:
 
   
the provision requiring a
66-2/3%
supermajority vote for stockholders to amend the Proposed Bylaws;
 
   
the provisions providing for the manner of establishing the size of the board and for a classified board (the election and term of our directors);
 
   
the provisions regarding resignation and removal of directors;
 
   
the provisions regarding entering into business combinations with interested stockholders (requiring at least an 80% supermajority vote);
 
   
the provisions precluding stockholder action by written consent;
 
   
the provisions regarding calling special meetings of stockholders;
 
   
the provisions regarding filling vacancies on our Board and newly created directorships;
 
   
the provisions regarding the establishment of Delaware as the exclusive forum for certain types of legal proceedings against Fathom, its directors, officers and employees;
 
   
the provisions eliminating monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty by a director; and
 
   
the amendment provision requiring that the above provisions be amended only with a
66-2/3%
supermajority vote.
The combination of the classification of our Board, the lack of cumulative voting and the supermajority voting requirements will make it more difficult for our existing stockholders to replace our Board as well as for another party to obtain control of us by replacing our Board. Because our Board has the power to retain and discharge our officers, these provisions could also make it more difficult for existing stockholders or another party to effect a change in management.
Authorized but Unissued Shares
. The authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval, subject to any limitations imposed by the listing
 
298

Table of Contents
rules of The New York Stock Exchange. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved common stock and preferred stock could make more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise. See “Description of Fathom’s Capital Stock—Preferred Stock” and “Description of Fathom’s Capital Stock—Authorized but Unissued Capital Stock” above.
Business Combinations with Interested Stockholders
. In general, Section 203 of the DGCL, an anti-takeover law, prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination, such as a merger, with a person or group owning 15% or more of the corporation’s voting stock, which person or group is considered an interested stockholder under the DGCL, for a period of three years following the date the person became an interested stockholder, unless (with certain exceptions) the business combination or the transaction in which the person became an interested stockholder is approved in a prescribed manner.
We elected in the Proposed Charter not to be subject to Section 203.
Other Limitations on Stockholder Actions
. The Proposed Bylaws also impose some procedural requirements on stockholders who wish to:
 
   
make nominations in the election of directors;
 
   
propose that a director be removed; or
 
   
propose any other business to be brought before an annual or special meeting of stockholders.
Under these procedural requirements, in order to bring a proposal before a meeting of stockholders, a stockholder must deliver timely notice of a proposal pertaining to a proper subject for presentation at the meeting to our corporate secretary containing, among other things, the following:
 
   
the stockholder’s name and address;
 
   
the number of shares beneficially owned by the stockholder and evidence of such ownership;
 
   
the names of all persons with whom the stockholder is acting in concert and a description of all arrangements and understandings with those persons;
 
   
a description of any agreement, arrangement or understanding reached with respect to shares of our stock, such as borrowed or loaned shares, short positions, hedging or similar transactions;
 
   
a description of the business or nomination to be brought before the meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting; and
 
   
any material interest of the stockholder in such business.
The Proposed Bylaws set out the timeliness requirements for delivery of notice.
In order to submit a nomination for our board of directors, a stockholder must also submit any information with respect to the nominee that we would be required to include in a proxy statement, as well as some other information. If a stockholder fails to follow the required procedures, the stockholder’s proposal or nominee will be ineligible and will not be voted on by our stockholders.
Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors
The Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws provide indemnification for our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. We plan to enter into indemnification agreements with each of our directors and executive officers that may, in some cases, be broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained under Delaware law. In addition, as permitted by Delaware law, the Proposed Charter includes provisions that eliminate the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages resulting from breaches of certain fiduciary duties as a director. The effect of this provision is to restrict our rights and the rights of our
 
299

Table of Contents
stockholders in derivative suits to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of fiduciary duties as a director, except that a director will be personally liable for:
 
   
any breach of his duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;
 
   
acts or omissions not in good faith, or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
 
   
unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section 174 of the DGCL; or
 
   
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
These provisions may be held not to be enforceable for violations of the federal securities laws of the United States.
Exclusive Forum
The Proposed Charter will provide that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any current or former director, officer, other employee, agent or stockholder of the Company to the Company or the Company’s stockholders, or any claim for aiding and abetting such alleged breach, (iii) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any current or former director, officer, other employee, agent or stockholder of the Company (a) arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, the Proposed Charter (as it may be amended or restated) or the Proposed Bylaws or (b) as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction on the Delaware Court of Chancery or (iv) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any current or former director, officer, other employee, agent or stockholder of the Company governed by the internal affairs doctrine of the law of the State of Delaware shall, as to any action in the foregoing clauses (i) through (iv), to the fullest extent permitted by law, be solely and exclusively brought in the Delaware Court of Chancery; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any claim (a) as to which the Delaware Court of Chancery determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery (and the indispensable party does not consent to the personal jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery within ten days following such determination), (b) which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of a court or forum other than the Delaware Court of Chancery, or (c) arising under federal securities laws, including the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as to which the federal district courts of the United States of America shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of Article XI of the Proposed Charter will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the sole and exclusive forum. Further, Section 22 of the Securities Act of 1933 creates concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by that act or the rules and regulations thereunder. Accordingly, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce this forum selection provision as written as to claims arising under the Securities Act. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any shares of the Company’s capital stock shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the forum provisions in the Proposed Charter. If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of the forum provisions is filed in a court other than a court located within the State of Delaware (a “foreign action”) in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to: (x) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located within the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the forum provisions (an “enforcement action”); and (y) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such enforcement action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the foreign action as agent for such stockholder. However, it is possible that a court could find the Company’s forum selection provisions to be inapplicable or unenforceable. Although the Company believes this provision benefits it by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies, the provision may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against the Company’s directors, officers and other employees.

Stockholder Registration Rights
Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, Fathom granted to the Legacy Fathom Owners, Sponsor and certain other former Altimar II equityholders customary demand, shelf and piggyback registration rights. Fathom is required to file within thirty days of the Closing a shelf registration statement registering the public resale of the shares of common stock of Fathom (“Shelf Registration Statement”), and cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof and no later than the earlier of (A) 60 calendar days after the filing thereof (or, in the event the SEC reviews and has written comments to the Shelf Registration Statement, the 90th calendar day following the filing thereof) and (B) the 10
th
business day after the date Fathom is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that it will not review the Shelf Registration Statement. See “
Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — Fathom Related Person Transactions — Registration Rights Agreement.
Warrants
Public Shareholders’ Warrants
. Each whole warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of one year from the closing of the IPO and 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination, except as discussed in the immediately succeeding paragraph. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of Class A ordinary shares. This means only a whole warrant may be exercised at a given time by a warrant holder. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade. The warrants will expire five years after the completion of our initial business combination, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
We will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to our satisfying our obligations described below with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable and we will not be obligated to issue a Class A ordinary share upon exercise of a warrant unless the Class A ordinary share issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the unit solely for the Class A ordinary share underlying such unit.
We have agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days after the closing of our initial business combination, we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, and we will use our commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days following the closing of our initial business combination, and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement; provided that if our Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a public warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, we may, at our option, require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event we so elect, we will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, but we will use our commercially reasonably efforts to register or qualify for sale the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. If a

Table of Contents
registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th day after the closing of the initial business combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when we will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a) (9) of the Securities Act or another exemption, but we will use our commercially reasonably efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the lesser of (A) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value and (B) 0.361 per warrant. The “fair market value” as used in this paragraph shall mean the volume weighted average price of the Class A ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the trading day prior to the date on which the notice of exercise is received by the warrant agent.
Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00
Once the warrants become exercisable, we may redeem the outstanding warrants (except as described herein with respect to the Private Placement Warrants):
 
   
in whole and not in part;
 
   
at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
 
   
upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and
 
   
if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant as described under the heading “
—Warrants—Public Shareholders’ Warrants—Anti-Dilution Adjustments
”) for any twenty (20) trading days within a thirty (30)-trading day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
We will not redeem the warrants as described above unless a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the issuance of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is then effective and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares is available throughout the
30-day
redemption period. If and when the warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.
If we call the warrants for redemption as described above, our management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis,” our management will consider, among other factors, our cash position, the number of warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on our shareholders of issuing the maximum number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of our warrants. In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the warrants for that number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the lesser of (A) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “fair market value” of our Class A ordinary shares over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the fair market value and (B) 0.361 per warrant.
We have established the last of the redemption criterion discussed above to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and we issue a notice of redemption of the warrants, each warrant holder will be entitled to exercise his, her or its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. Any such exercise would not be done on a “cashless” basis and would require the exercising warrant holder to pay the exercise price for each warrant being exercised. However, the price of the Class A ordinary shares may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant as described under the heading “—Warrants—Public Shareholders’ Warrants—Anti-Dilution Adjustments”) as well as the $11.50 (for whole shares) warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.

Redemption of warrants when the price per Class A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00
Once the warrants become exercisable, we may redeem the outstanding warrants (except as described herein with respect to the Private Placement Warrants):
 
   
in whole and not in part;
 
   
at $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined by reference to the table below, based on the redemption date and the “fair market value” of our Class A ordinary shares (as defined below) except as otherwise described below; and
 
   
if, and only if, the closing price of our Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $10.00 per public share (as adjusted for adjustments to the number of shares issuable upon exercise or the exercise price of a warrant as described under the heading “
— Warrants—Public Shareholders’ Warrants—Anti-Dilution Adjustments
”) on the trading day prior to the date on which we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
Beginning on the date the notice of redemption is given until the warrants are redeemed or exercised, holders may elect to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. The numbers in the table below represent the number of Class A ordinary shares that a warrant holder will receive upon such cashless exercise in connection with a redemption by us pursuant to this redemption feature, based on the “fair market value” of our Class A ordinary shares on the corresponding redemption date (assuming holders elect to exercise their warrants and such warrants are not redeemed for $0.10 per warrant), determined for these purposes and in “—
Redemption of warrants when the price per Class
 A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00
” above based on volume weighted average price of our Class A ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants, and the number of months that the corresponding redemption date precedes the expiration date of the warrants, each as set forth in the table below. We will provide our warrant holders with the final fair market value no later than one business day after the
10-trading
day period described above ends.
Pursuant to the warrant agreement, references above to Class A ordinary shares shall include a security other than Class A ordinary shares into which the Class A ordinary shares have been converted or exchanged for in the event we are not the surviving company in our initial business combination. The numbers in the table below will not be adjusted when determining the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued upon exercise of the warrants if we are not the surviving entity following our initial business combination.
The share prices set forth in the column headings of the table below will be adjusted as of any date on which the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant or the exercise price of a warrant is adjusted as set forth under the heading “—
Anti-Dilution Adjustments
” below. If the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a warrant is adjusted, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the share prices immediately prior to such adjustment, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the exercise price of the warrant after such adjustment and the denominator of which is the exercise price of the warrant immediately prior to such adjustment. In such an event, the number of shares in the table below shall be adjusted by multiplying such share amounts by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of a warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which is the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of a warrant as so adjusted. If the exercise price of a warrant is adjusted, (a) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the fifth paragraph under the heading “—
Anti-Dilution Adjustments
” below, the adjusted share prices in the column headings will equal the unadjusted share price multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price as set forth under the heading “—
Anti-Dilution Adjustments
” and the denominator of which is $10.00 and (b) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to the second paragraph under the heading “— Anti-Dilution Adjustments” below, the adjusted share prices in the column
 
303

headings will equal the unadjusted share price less the decrease in the exercise price of a warrant pursuant to such exercise price adjustment.

The exact fair market value and redemption date may not be set forth in the table above, in which case, if the fair market value is between two values in the table or the redemption date is between two redemption dates in the table, the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued for each warrant exercised will be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of shares set forth for the higher and lower fair market values and the earlier and later redemption dates, as applicable, based on a 365 or
366-day
year, as applicable. For example, if the volume weighted average price of our Class A ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the warrants is $11.00 per share, and at such time there are 57 months until the expiration of the warrants, holders may choose to, in connection with this redemption feature, exercise their warrants for 0.277 Class A ordinary shares for each whole warrant. For an example where the exact fair market value and redemption date are not as set forth in the table above, if the volume weighted average price of our Class A ordinary shares for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of the warrants is $13.50 per share, and at such time there are 38 months until the expiration of the warrants, holders may choose to, in connection with this redemption feature, exercise their warrants for 0.298 Class A ordinary shares for each whole warrant. In no event will the warrants be exercisable on a cashless basis in connection with this redemption feature for more than 0.361 Class A ordinary shares per warrant (subject to adjustment). Finally, as reflected in the table above, if the warrants are out of the money and about to expire, they cannot be exercised on a cashless basis in connection with a redemption by us pursuant to this redemption feature, since they will not be exercisable for any Class A ordinary shares.
This redemption feature differs from the typical warrant redemption features used in many other blank check offerings, which typically only provide for a redemption of warrants for cash (other than the Private Placement Warrants) when the trading price for the Class A ordinary shares exceeds $18.00 per share for a specified period of time. This redemption feature is structured to allow for all of the outstanding warrants to be redeemed when the Class A ordinary shares are trading at or above $10.00 per public share, which may be at a
 
304

Table of Contents
time when the trading price of our Class A ordinary shares is below the exercise price of the warrants. We have established this redemption feature to provide us with the flexibility to redeem the warrants without the warrants having to reach the $18.00 per share threshold set forth above under “
— Redemption of warrants when the price per Class
 A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00.
” Holders choosing to exercise their warrants in connection with a redemption pursuant to this feature will, in effect, receive a number of shares for their warrants based on an option pricing model with a fixed volatility input as of this proxy statement/prospectus. This redemption right provides us with an additional mechanism by which to redeem all of the outstanding warrants, and therefore have certainty as to our capital structure as the warrants would no longer be outstanding and would have been exercised or redeemed. We will be required to pay the applicable redemption price to warrant holders if we choose to exercise this redemption right and it will allow us to quickly proceed with a redemption of the warrants if we determine it is in our best interest to do so. As such, we would redeem the warrants in this manner when we believe it is in our best interest to update our capital structure to remove the warrants and pay the redemption price to the warrant holders.
As stated above, we can redeem the warrants when the Class A ordinary shares are trading at a price starting at $10.00, which is below the exercise price of $11.50, because it will provide certainty with respect to our capital structure and cash position while providing warrant holders with the opportunity to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis for the applicable number of shares. If we choose to redeem the warrants when the Class A ordinary shares are trading at a price below the exercise price of the warrants, this could result in the warrant holders receiving fewer Class A ordinary shares than they would have received if they had chosen to wait to exercise their warrants for Class A ordinary shares if and when such Class A ordinary shares were trading at a price higher than the exercise price of $11.50.
No fractional Class A ordinary shares will be issued upon exercise. If, upon exercise, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will round down to the nearest whole number of the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued to the holder. If, at the time of redemption, the warrants are exercisable for a security other than the Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the warrant agreement (for instance, if we are not the surviving company in our initial business combination), the warrants may be exercised for such security. At such time as the warrants become exercisable for a security other than the Class A ordinary shares, the Company (or surviving company) will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register under the Securities Act the security issuable upon the exercise of the warrants.
Redemption Procedures
A holder of a warrant may notify us in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 9.8% (or such other amount as a holder may specify) of the Class A ordinary shares issued and outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.
Anti-Dilution Adjustments
If the number of outstanding Class A ordinary shares is increased by a capitalization or share dividend payable in Class A ordinary shares, or by a
split-up
of ordinary shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such capitalization or share dividend,
split-up
or similar event, the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding ordinary shares. A rights offering made to all or substantially all holders of ordinary shares entitling holders to purchase Class A ordinary shares at a price less than the “historical fair market value” (as defined below) will be deemed a share dividend of a number of Class A ordinary shares equal to the product of (i) the number of Class A ordinary shares actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares) and (ii) one minus the quotient of (x) the price per Class A ordinary share paid in such rights offering and (y) the historical fair market
 
305

Table of Contents
value. For these purposes, (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A ordinary shares, in determining the price payable for Class A ordinary shares, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) “historical fair market value” means the volume weighted average price of Class A ordinary shares as reported during the 10 trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the Class A ordinary shares trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.
In addition, if we, at any time while the warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pay a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to all or substantially all of the holders of the Class A ordinary shares on account of such Class A ordinary shares (or other securities into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) any cash dividends or cash distributions which, when combined on a per share basis with all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Class A ordinary shares during the
365-day
period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution does not exceed $0.50 (as adjusted to appropriately reflect any other adjustments and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the exercise price or to the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each warrant) but only with respect to the amount of the aggregate cash dividends or cash distributions equal to or less than $0.50 per share, (c) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of Class A ordinary shares in connection with a proposed initial business combination, (d) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of Class A ordinary shares in connection with a shareholder vote to amend our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (A) to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to provide holders of our Class A ordinary shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with our initial business combination or to redeem 100% of our public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of our Class A ordinary shares, or (e) in connection with the redemption of our public shares upon our failure to complete our initial business combination, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each Class A ordinary share in respect of such event.
If the number of outstanding Class A ordinary shares is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse share
sub-division
or reclassification of Class A ordinary shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse share subdivision, reclassification or similar event, the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable on exercise of each warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding Class A ordinary shares.
Whenever the number of Class A ordinary shares purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants is adjusted, as described above, the warrant exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of Class A ordinary shares purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior to such adjustment and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of Class A ordinary shares so purchasable immediately thereafter.
In addition, if (x) we issue additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of our initial business combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by our board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to our initial shareholders or their respective affiliates, without taking into account any founder shares held by our initial shareholders or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of our initial business combination on the date of the consummation of our initial business combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of our Class A ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day after the day on which we consummate our initial business combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be

Table of Contents
adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above under “—
Redemption of warrants when the price per Class
 A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00
” and “—
Redemption of warrants when the price per Class
 A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $10.00
” will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price described above under “—
Redemption of warrants when the price per Class
 A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00
” will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.
In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding Class A ordinary shares (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such Class A ordinary shares), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which we are the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of our outstanding Class A ordinary shares), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which we are dissolved, the holders of the warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the warrants and in lieu of the Class A ordinary shares immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of Class A ordinary shares or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately prior to such event. However, if such holders were entitled to exercise a right of election as to the kind or amount of securities, cash or other assets receivable upon such consolidation or merger, then the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets for which each warrant will become exercisable will be deemed to be the weighted average of the kind and amount received per share by such holders in such consolidation or merger that affirmatively make such election, and if a tender, exchange or redemption offer has been made to and accepted by such holders (other than a tender, exchange or redemption offer made by the company in connection with redemption rights held by shareholders of the company as provided for in our Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association or as a result of the redemption of Class A ordinary shares by the company if a proposed initial business combination is presented to the shareholders of the company for approval) under circumstances in which, upon completion of such tender or exchange offer, the maker thereof, together with members of any group
(with-in
the meaning of Rule
13d-5(b)(1)
under the Exchange Act) of which such maker is a part, and together with any affiliate or associate of such maker (within the meaning of Rule
12b-2
under the Exchange Act) and any members of any such group of which any such affiliate or associate is a part, own beneficially (within the meaning of Rule

under the Exchange Act) more than 50% of the issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares, the holder of a warrant will be entitled to receive the highest amount of cash, securities or other property to which such holder would actually have been entitled as a shareholder if such warrant holder had exercised the warrant prior to the expiration of such tender or exchange offer, accepted such offer and all of the Class A ordinary shares held by such holder had been purchased pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, subject to adjustment (from and after the consummation of such tender or exchange offer) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in the warrant agreement. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of Class A ordinary shares in such a transaction is payable in the form of Class A ordinary shares in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established
over-the-counter
market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following public disclosure of such transaction, the warrant exercise price will be reduced as specified in the warrant agreement based on the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the warrant agreement) of the warrant. The purpose of such exercise price reduction is to provide additional value to holders of the warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the warrants pursuant to which the holders of the warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the warrants.

Table of Contents
The warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder for the purpose of (i) curing any ambiguity or correct any mistake, including to conform the provisions of the warrant agreement to the description of the terms of the warrants and the warrant agreement set forth in this prospectus, or defective provision (ii) amending the provisions relating to cash dividends on ordinary shares as contemplated by and in accordance with the warrant agreement or (iii) adding or changing any provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the warrant agreement as the parties to the warrant agreement may deem necessary or desirable and that the parties deem to not adversely affect the rights of the registered holders of the warrants, provided that the approval by the holders of at least 50% of the then-outstanding public warrants is required to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders. A copy of the warrant agreement, which was filed as an exhibit to the registration statement for the IPO, contains a complete description of the terms and conditions applicable to the warrants.
The warrant holders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of ordinary shares and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive Class A ordinary shares. After the issuance of Class A ordinary shares upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by shareholders.
No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, we will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued to the warrant holder.
We have agreed that, subject to applicable law, any action, proceeding or claim against us arising out of or relating in any way to the warrant agreement will be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, and we irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction will be the exclusive forum for any such action, proceeding or claim. This provision applies to claims under the Securities Act but does not apply to claims under the Exchange Act or any claim for which the federal district courts of the United States of America are the sole and exclusive forum.
Private Placement Warrants
. Except as described below, the Private Placement Warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the warrants sold as part of the units in the IPO. The Private Placement Warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of our initial business combination (except pursuant to limited exceptions to our officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with the initial purchasers of the Private Placement Warrants) and they will not be redeemable by us so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees. Sponsor, or its permitted transferees, has the option to exercise the Private Placement Warrants on a cashless basis. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by holders other than the Sponsor or its permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by us in all redemption scenarios and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the warrants included in the units being sold in the IPO. Any amendment to the terms of the Private Placement Warrants or any provision of the warrant agreement with respect to the Private Placement Warrants will require a vote of holders of at least 50% of the number of the then outstanding Private Placement Warrants.
If holders of the Private Placement Warrants elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would pay the exercise price by surrendering his, her or its warrants for that number of Class A common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “Sponsor fair market value” (defined below) over the exercise price of the warrants by (y) the Sponsor fair market value. For these purposes, the “Sponsor fair market value” means the average reported closing price of the Class A common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of warrant exercise is sent to the warrant agent. The reason that Altimar II agreed that these warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Sponsor and

its permitted transferees is because it was not known at the time of the IPO whether they will be affiliated with us following a business combination. If they remain affiliated with us, their ability to sell our securities in the open market will be significantly limited. We have policies in place that restrict insiders from selling our securities except during specific periods of time. Even during such periods of time when insiders are permitted to sell our securities, an insider cannot trade in our securities if he or she is in possession of material
non-public
information. Accordingly, unlike public shareholders who could exercise their warrants and sell the Class A common stock received upon such exercise freely in the open market in order to recoup the cost of such exercise, the insiders could be significantly restricted from selling such securities. As a result, we believe that allowing the holders to exercise such warrants on a cashless basis is appropriate.
In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination by Altimar II, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of Altimar II’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. Up to $2,000,000 of such loans may be convertible into warrants of Fathom at a price of $1.00 per warrant at the option of the lender. Such warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants.
Transfer Agent, Warrant Agent and Registrar
The transfer agent and registrar for the Fathom common stock and the warrant agent for the Fathom public warrants and Private Placement Warrants will be Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company.
Listing
We intend to list our Class A common stock and our warrants to purchase Class A common stock on The New York Stock Exchange under the symbols “FATH” and “FATH.WS,” respectively.

SECURITIES ACT RESTRICTIONS ON RESALE OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK
Rule 144
Pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), a person who has beneficially owned restricted common stock or warrants of Fathom for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and have filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the 12 months (or such shorter period as we were required to file reports) preceding the sale.
Persons who have beneficially owned restricted common stock or warrants of Fathom for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:
 
   
1% of the total number of shares of Fathom common stock then outstanding (as of the date of this proxy statement/prospectus, Altimar II has                  ordinary shares outstanding); or
 
   
the average weekly reported trading volume of Fathom common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.
Sales by our affiliates under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.
Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies
Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination-related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:
 
   
the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;
 
   
the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;
 
   
the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form
8-K
reports; and
 
   
at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10 type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.
As a result, our initial shareholders will be able to sell their founder shares and Private Placement Warrants, as applicable, pursuant to Rule 144 without registration one year after we have completed the Business Combination.
We anticipate that following the consummation of the Business Combination, we will no longer be a shell company, and so, once the conditions set forth in the exceptions listed above are satisfied, Rule 144 will become available for the resale of the above noted restricted securities.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS
Altimar Acquisition Corp. II (the “
Company
”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on December 7, 2020. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a “
Business Combination
”). The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.
As of June 30, 2021, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from December 7, 2020 (inception) through June 30, 2021 relates to the Company’s formation, the Company’s initial public offering (the “
Initial Public Offering
”) which is described below and, subsequent to the completion of the Initial Public Offering, identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates
non-operating
income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The Registration Statement on
Form S-1
(File
No. 333-252260)
(the “
Registration Statement
”) for the Initial Public Offering was declared effective on February 4, 2021. On February 9, 2021, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 34,500,000 units (the “
Units
” and, with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares and the warrants included in the Units, the “
Public Shares
” and the “
Public Warrants
,” respectively), which includes the full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 4,500,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $345,000,000, as described in Note 3.
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 9,900,000 warrants (the “
Private Placement Warrants
” and, together with the Public Warrants, the “
Warrants
”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to Altimar Sponsor II, LLC (the “
Sponsor
”), generating gross proceeds of $9,900,000, as described in Note 4.
Transaction costs amounted to $19,490,958, consisting of $6,900,000 of underwriting fees, $12,075,000 of deferred underwriting fees (see Note 6) and $515,958 of other offering costs. $755,071 of the transaction costs was expensed through the condensed statement of operation on the date of the Initial Public Offering.
Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on February 9, 2021, an amount of $345,000,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was placed in a trust account (the “
Trust Account
”) and will be invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “
Investment Company Act
”), with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under
Rule 2a-7
of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The New

York Stock Exchange listing rules require that the Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the amount of deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the signing a definitive agreement in connection with the initial Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully.
The Company will provide the holders of the Public Shares (the “
Public Shareholders
”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per Public Share), including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of the then issued and outstanding Public Shares, subject to certain limitations as described in the Registration Statement. The
per-Public
Share amount to be distributed to the Public Shareholders who properly redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters in the Initial Public Offering (as discussed in Note 6). There will be no redemption rights in connection with a Business Combination with respect to the Warrants.
The Company will not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 (so that it does not then become subject to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (the “
SEC
”) “penny stock” rules) or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement that may be contained in the agreement relating to the Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and who vote at a general meeting, or such other vote as required by applicable law or stock exchange rules. If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the “
Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association
”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the SEC and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote the Founder Shares (as defined below) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, the Public Shareholders may elect to redeem their Public Shares without voting and, if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against a proposed Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such Public Shareholder or any other person with whom such Public Shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the

Exchange Act
”)), will be restricted from redeeming its Public Shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.
Each of the Sponsor and the Company’s executive officers and directors have agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with an initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination prior to February 9, 2023 (the “
Combination Period
”) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or
pre-initial
business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a
per-Public
Share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the amount on deposit in the Trust Account and not previously released to pay taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares.
The Company will have until February 9, 2023 to consummate a Business Combination. However, if the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Public Shares, at a
per-share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of the then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Public Shareholders and its board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject, in each case, to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.
The Sponsor has agreed to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares held by the Sponsor if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or any of its affiliates acquires Public Shares, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the offering price per Unit ($10.00).
In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (1) $10.00 per Public Share and (2) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per Public Share,

due to reductions in the value of trust assets, in each case, net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay taxes. This liability will not apply to any claims by a third party that executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters in the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “
Securities Act
”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.
NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“
GAAP
”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to the Quarterly Report on Form
10-Q
and Article 8 of Regulation
S-X
of the SEC. Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations or cash flows. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.
The interim results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021 or for any future periods.
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (the “
JOBS Act
”), and may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including, among others, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a registration statement under the Securities Act declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to
non-emerging
growth companies but any such election to opt out is

irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that, when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statement with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires the Company’s management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Making estimates requires the Company’s management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which the Company’s management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
One of the more significant accounting estimates included in these condensed financial statements is the determination of the fair value of the warrant liability. Such estimates may be subject to change as more current information becomes available and accordingly the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. As of June 30, 2021, the Company held $345,006,396 in a money market fund in the Trust Account. The Company did not have any cash equivalents as of December 31, 2020.
Offering Costs
Offering costs consist of legal, accounting and underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs amounted to $19,490,958, of which $18,735,887 were charged to shareholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering and $755,071 were expensed on the condensed statement of operations.
Class A Ordinary Shares Subject to Possible Redemption
The Company accounts for the Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“
ASC
”) Topic 480, “
Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity
.” The Class A Ordinary Shares subject to mandatory redemption are classified as a liability instrument and are measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares (including Class A Ordinary Shares that feature redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) are classified as temporary equity. At all other times, Class A Ordinary Shares are classified as shareholders’ equity. The Class A Ordinary Shares feature

TATEMENTS

certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, 30,650,363 and 0, respectively, Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption are presented at redemption value as temporary equity, outside of the shareholders’ equity section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets.
Warrant Liability
The Company accounts for the Warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the Warrants’ specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “
FASB
”) ASC Topic 480, “
Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity
,” and ASC Topic 815, “
Derivatives and Hedging
.” The assessment considers whether the Warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC Topic 480, whether Warrants meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC Topic 480 and whether the Warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC Topic 815, including whether the Warrants are indexed to the Class A Ordinary Shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of issuance of the Warrants and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the Warrants are outstanding.
For issued or modified Warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the Warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional
paid-in
capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified Warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the Warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance and each balance sheet date thereafter. Changes in the estimated fair value of the warrants are recognized as a
non-cash
gain or loss on the statements of operations. The fair value of the Public Warrants was determined using the closing price of the Public Warrants, and the fair value of the Private Placement Warrants was estimated using a Monte Carlo simulation approach (see Note 9).
Income Taxes
The Company accounts for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, “
Income Taxes
,” which prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the period presented.
Net Income (Loss) per Ordinary Share
Net income (loss) per ordinary share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period. The calculation of diluted income (loss) per share does not consider the effect of the Public Warrants issued in connection with the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the

Private Placement Warrants, because the inclusion of the Public Warrants and the Private Placement Warrants would be anti-dilutive because of the contingency associated with them.
The Company’s statement of operations includes a presentation of income (loss) per share for ordinary shares subject to possible redemption in a manner similar to the
two-class
method of income (loss) per ordinary share. Net income per ordinary share, basic and diluted, for redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares is calculated by dividing the interest income earned on the Trust Account, by the weighted average number of redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding since original issuance. Net income (loss) per share, basic and diluted, for the Class B Ordinary Shares is calculated by dividing the net income (loss), adjusted for income attributable to redeemable Class A Ordinary Shares, by the weighted average number of Class B Ordinary Shares outstanding for the period. Class B Ordinary Shares include the Founder Shares as these shares do not have any redemption features and do not participate in the income earned on the Trust Account.
The following table reflects the calculation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per ordinary share (in dollars, except per share amounts):

Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash accounts in a financial institution, which at times may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Corporation coverage limit of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on these accounts and the Company’s management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “
Fair Value Measurement
,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying condensed balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature, except for the warrant liability (see Note 9).
Recent Accounting Standards
In August 2020, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No.
2020-6, ”Debt—Debt
with Conversion and Other Options (Subtopic
470-20)”
and “
Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity (Subtopic
815-40):
Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity
” (“
ASU
2020-6
”), which simplifies accounting for convertible instruments by removing major separation models required under current GAAP. ASU
2020-6
removes certain settlement conditions that are required for equity contracts to qualify for the derivative scope exception and it also simplifies the diluted earnings per share calculation in certain areas. ASU
2020-6
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, including interim periods within those fiscal years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU
2020-6
effective as of January 1, 2021. The adoption of ASU
2020-6
did not have an impact on the Company’s financial statements as the Company did not hold convertible instruments prior to January 1, 2021.
The Company’s management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed financial statements.
NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING
The Company sold 34,500,000 Units in the Initial Public Offering, which includes a full exercise by the underwriters of their over-allotment option in the amount of 4,500,000 Units at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one Class A Ordinary Share and
one-fourth
of one redeemable Public Warrant. Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per Class A Ordinary Share (see Note 8).
NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT
Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering and the underwriters’ full exercise of their over-allotment option, the Sponsor purchased an aggregate of 9,900,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $9,900,000 in a private placement transaction. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share at a price of $11.50 per Class A Ordinary Share, subject to adjustment (see Note 8). A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants was added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares, subject to the requirements of applicable law, and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.
NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Founder Shares
On January 28, 2021, the Sponsor transferred 25,000 Founder Shares to certain of the Company’s directors, resulting in the Sponsor holding 8,450,000 Founder Shares. The Founder Shares included an aggregate of up to

1,125,000 Founder Shares that were subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option was exercised, so that the number of the Founder Shares would equal, on an
as-converted
basis, approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Initial Public Offering. As a result of the underwriters’ election to fully exercise their over-allotment option on February 9, 2021, the 1,125,000 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.
The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination and (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share
sub-divisions,
share dividends, rights issuances, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any
30-trading
day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property.
Administrative Services Agreement
The Company entered into an agreement, commencing on February 4, 2021, through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a sum of $10,000 per month for office space and secretarial and administrative services. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company incurred $30,000 and $50,000, respectively, in fees for these services, of which $10,000 is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed balance sheet as of June 30, 2021.
Promissory Note — Related Party
On December 15, 2020, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “
Promissory Note
”) to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note was
non-interest
bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021 and (ii) the completion of the Initial Public Offering. The outstanding balance under the Promissory Note of $94,890 was repaid at the closing of the Initial Public Offering on February 9, 2021, at which point the Promissory Note was no longer available to the Company.
Related Party Loans
In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s executive officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (the “
Working Capital Loans
”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of the Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to the Working Capital Loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $2,000,000 of the Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant.

warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were
no
amounts outstanding under the Working Capital Loans.
Operating Costs
For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Sponsor agreed to absorb $1,700,000 in legal expenses previously incurred by the Company. Such reversal of expense is reflected in operating (income) costs on the condensed statements of operations.
NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
 
Risks and Uncertainties
Management continues to evaluate the impact of the
COVID-19
pandemic and has concluded that, while it is reasonably possible that the
COVID-19
pandemic could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Registration and Shareholder Rights
Pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement entered into on February 4, 2021, the holders of the Founder Shares, the Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans (and any Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination. However, the registration and shareholder rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lockup period. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
The underwriters are entitled to a deferred underwriting fee of $0.35 per Unit, or $12,075,000 in the aggregate. The deferred underwriting fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.
NOTE 7. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Preference Shares
The Company is authorized to issue 5,000,000 preference shares, with a par value of $0.0001 per share, with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were no preference shares issued or outstanding.

Class
 A Ordinary Shares
— The Company is authorized to issue 500,000,000 Class A Ordinary Shares, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Class A Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote for each Class A Ordinary Share. As of June 30, 2021, there were 3,849,637 Class A Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding, excluding
30,650,363
Class A Ordinary Shares subject to possible redemption. As of December 31, 2020, there were no Class A Ordinary Shares issued or outstanding.
Class
 B Ordinary Shares
— The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 Class B Ordinary Shares, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Class B Ordinary Shares are entitled to one vote for each Class B Ordinary Shares. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were 8,625,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding.
Only holders of the Class B Ordinary Shares will have the right to vote on the election of directors prior to the Business Combination. Holders of the Class A Ordinary Shares and the Class B Ordinary Shares will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, except as required by law. In connection with a Business Combination, the Company may enter into a shareholders agreement or other arrangements with the shareholders of the target or other investors to provide for voting or other governance arrangements that differ from those in effect upon completion of the Initial Public Offering.
The Class B Ordinary Shares will automatically convert into the Class A Ordinary Shares at the time of a Business Combination, or earlier at the option of the holders thereof, at a ratio such that the number of the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion of all of the Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an
as-converted
basis, 20% of the sum of (i) the total number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Initial Public Offering, plus (ii) the total number of the Class A Ordinary Shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of a Business Combination, excluding the Class A Ordinary Shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into the Class A Ordinary Shares issued, deemed issued or to be issued to any seller of an interest in the target to the Company in a Business Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor, its affiliates or any member of the Company’s management team upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans. In no event will the Class B Ordinary Shares convert into the Class A Ordinary Shares at a rate of less than
one-to-one.
NOTE 8. WARRANT LIABILITY
As of June 30, 2021, there were 8,625,000 Public Warrants outstanding. As of December 31, 2020, there were no Public Warrants outstanding. Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (i) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) one year from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.
The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the exercise of a Public Warrant and will have no obligation to settle such exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Public Warrant is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No Public Warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue a Class A Ordinary Share upon exercise of a Public Warrant unless the Class A Ordinary Share issuable upon such exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the Public Warrant.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days, after the closing of a Business Combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants, and the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days following the closing of a Business Combination, and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those Class A Ordinary Shares until the Public Warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement;
provided
,
however
, that, if the Class A Ordinary Shares are at the time of any exercise of a Public Warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants, but the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify for sale the Class A Ordinary Shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. If a registration statement covering the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants is not effective by the 60th day after the closing of a Business Combination, holders of Public Warrants may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise Public Warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption, but the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Class A Ordinary Shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.
Redemption of the Warrants when the price per Class
 A Ordinary Share equals or exceeds $18.00.
Once the Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Warrants (except as described with respect to the Private Placement Warrants):
 
   
in whole and not in part;
 
   
at a price of $0.01 per Warrant;
 
   
upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each holder of the Warrant; and
 
   
if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within a
30-trading
day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the holders of the Warrants.
If and when the Warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.
Redemption of the Warrants when the price per Class
 A Ordinary Share equals or exceeds $10.00
. Once the Warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding Warrants:
 
   
in whole and not in part;
 
   
at a price of $0.10 per Warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption;
provided, however
, that holders will be able to exercise their Warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the Class A Ordinary Shares; and

if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A Ordinary Shares equal or exceeds $10.00 per Class A Ordinary Share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within the
30-trading
day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption of the holders of the Warrants.
If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, the Company’s management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of the Class A Ordinary Shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of the Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to their Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.
In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A Ordinary Shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A Ordinary Share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or holders of the Class B Ordinary Shares or their respective affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor, holders of the Class B Ordinary Shares or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “
Newly Issued Price
”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the consummation of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of its Class A Ordinary Shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day after the day on which the Company consummates its Business Combination (such price, the “
Market Value
”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.
As of June 30, 2021, there were 9,900,000 Private Placement Warrants outstanding. As of December 31, 2020, there were no Private Placement Warrants outstanding. The Private Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be
non-redeemable,
except as described above, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects the Company’s management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:
 
   
Level 1 — Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
 
   
Level 2 — Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
 
   
Level 3 — Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.
As of June 30, 2021, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $345,006,396 in money market funds, which are invested primarily in U.S. Treasury securities.
The following table presents information about the Company’s assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2021 and indicates the fair value hierarchy of the valuation inputs the Company utilized to determine such fair value:

Warrant liability — Private Placement Warrants
     3    $ 13,359,969
The Warrants were accounted for as liabilities in accordance with ASC
815-40
and are presented within warrant liability in the accompanying condensed balance sheet. The warrant liabilities are measured at fair value at inception and on a recurring basis, with changes in fair value presented within change in fair value of warrant liabilities in the condensed statement of operations.
The Warrants were initially valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model, which is considered to be a Level 3 fair value measurement for which there are uncertainties involved. If factors or assumptions change, the estimated fair values could be materially different. The Monte Carlo simulation model’s primary unobservable input utilized in determining the fair value of the Warrants is the expected volatility of the ordinary shares. The expected volatility as of the closing date of the Initial Public Offering was derived from observable public warrant pricing on comparable ‘blank-check’ companies without an identified target. The expected volatility as of subsequent valuation dates was implied from the Company’s own public warrant pricing. A Monte Carlo simulation methodology was used in estimating the fair value of the Public Warrants for periods where no

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 16, 2021, the Company announced that it had entered into a definitive business combination agreement, dated as of July 15, 2021 (the “
Business Combination Agreement
”), by and among the Company, Fathom Holdco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“
Fathom
”), Rapid Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“
Rapid Merger Sub
”), and the other parties thereto. Pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, among other things, Rapid Merger Sub will merge with and into Fathom, with Fathom as the surviving entity of the merger, and the Company will change its name to “Fathom Digital Manufacturing Corporation” and will be a publicly-traded industrial technology company that provides digital manufacturing services focused on prototype development and low volume production for blue chip corporate clients.
In connection with the proposed business combination pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, the Company will combine with Fathom at an estimated $1.5 billion pro forma equity value. Cash proceeds in connection with the business combination will be funded through a combination of the Company’s cash held in the Trust Account and a $80 million fully committed, common stock private investment in public equity (the “
PIPE Investment
”) at $10.00 per share. As part of the PIPE Investment, an affiliate of the Sponsor agreed to subscribe for $10.0 million at $10.00 per share.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Shareholders and the Board of Directors of
Altimar Acquisition Corp. II
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Altimar Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020, the related statements of operations, changes in shareholder’s equity and cash flows for the period from December 7, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from December 7, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

ALTIMAR ACQUISITION CORP. II
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1 — Organization and Plan of Business Operations
Altimar Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”) is a blank check company incorporated as a Cayman Islands exempted company on December 7, 2020. The Company was incorporated for the purpose of effecting a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”).
The Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from December 7, 2020 (inception) through December 31, 2020 relates to the Company’s formation and the proposed initial public offering (“Proposed Public Offering”), which is described below. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of a Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company will generate
non-operating
income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Proposed Public Offering. The Company has selected December 31 as its fiscal year end.
The Company’s ability to commence operations is contingent upon obtaining adequate financial resources through a Proposed Public Offering of 30,000,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the Class A ordinary shares included in the Units being offered, the “Public Shares”) at $10.00 per Unit (or 34,500,000 Units if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), which is discussed in Note 3, and the sale of 9,000,000 warrants (or 9,900,000 warrants if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full) (the “Private Placement Warrants”) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant in a private placement to Altimar Sponsor II, LLC (the “Sponsor”), that will close simultaneously with the Proposed Public Offering.
The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Proposed Public Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. The stock exchange listing rules require that the Business Combination must be with one or more operating businesses or assets with a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (as defined below) (excluding the amount of deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account). The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-Business Combination company owns or acquires 50% or more of the issued and outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target business sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”). There is no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully effect a Business Combination. Upon the closing of the Proposed Public Offering, management has agreed that $10.00 per Unit sold in the Proposed Public Offering, including proceeds of the sale of the Private Placement Warrants, will be held in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) and invested in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 185 days or less, or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund investing solely in U.S. Treasuries and meeting certain conditions under
Rule 2a-7
of the Investment Company Act, as determined by the Company, until the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the funds in the Trust Account to the Company’s shareholders, as described below.
The Company will provide the holders of the public shares (the “Public Shareholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their public shares either (i) in connection with a general meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek
 
F-28

ALTIMAR ACQUISITION CORP. II
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
shareholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Shareholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination (initially anticipated to be $10.00 per Public Share), including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares, subject to certain limitations as described in the prospectus. The
per-share
amount to be distributed to the Public Shareholders who properly redeem their shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriters (as discussed in Note 6). There will be no redemption rights in connection with a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants. The Class A ordinary shares will be recorded at redemption value and classified as temporary equity upon the completion of the Proposed Public Offering, in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.”
The Company will not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would cause its net tangible assets to be less than $5,000,001 (so that it does not then become subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules) or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement that may be contained in the agreement relating to the Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination, the Company will proceed with a Business Combination only if the Company receives an ordinary resolution under Cayman Islands law approving a Business Combination, which requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shareholders who attend and vote at a general meeting of the Company, or such other vote as required by law or stock exchange rule. If a shareholder vote is not required and the Company does not decide to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), and file tender offer documents containing substantially the same information as would be included in a proxy statement with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Proposed Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Shareholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares, without voting, and if they do vote, irrespective of whether they vote for or against a proposed Business Combination.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company seeks shareholder approval of the Business Combination and the Company does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, a Public Shareholder, together with any affiliate of such shareholder or any other person with whom such shareholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the Public Shares without the Company’s prior written consent.
The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period (as defined below) or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or
pre-initial
business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a
per-share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the Trust account and not previously released to pay taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares.
 
F-29

ALTIMAR ACQUISITION CORP. II
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
The Company will have until 24 months from the closing of the Proposed Public Offering to consummate a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). However, if the Company has not completed a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the Company will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Public Shares, at a
per-share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned and not previously released to us to pay our taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish the rights of the Public Shareholders as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Public Shareholders and its Board of Directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.
The Sponsor has agreed to waive its rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares it will receive if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor or any of its respective affiliates acquire Public Shares, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriters have agreed to waive their rights to their deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, and in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Proposed Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00).
In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (1) $10.00 per Public Share and (2) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per Public Share, due to reductions in the value of trust assets, in each case net of the interest that may be withdrawn to pay taxes. This liability will not apply to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and as to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriters of the Proposed Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). In the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third-party claims. The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers (other than the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account.
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
 
F-30

ALTIMAR ACQUISITION CORP. II
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
The Company does not have sufficient liquidity to meet its anticipated obligations over the next year from the date of issuance of these financial statements. In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
2014-15,
“Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” management has determined that the Company has access to funds from the Sponsor that are sufficient to fund the working capital needs of the Company until the earlier of the consummation of the Proposed Public Offering and one year from the date of issuance of these financial statements.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
Emerging Growth Company
The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, as amended (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to
non-emerging
growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of expenses during the reporting period.
Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future confirming events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.
Deferred Offering Costs
Deferred offering costs consist of legal, accounting and other expenses incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Proposed Public Offering and that will be charged to shareholder’s equity upon the completion of the Proposed Public Offering. Should the Proposed Public Offering prove to be unsuccessful, these deferred costs, as well as additional expenses incurred, will be charged to operations.

ALTIMAR ACQUISITION CORP. II
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Income Taxes
ASC Topic 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company’s management determined that the Cayman Islands is the Company’s major tax jurisdiction. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. As of December 31, 2020, there were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position.
The Company is considered to be an exempted Cayman Islands company with no connection to any other taxable jurisdiction and is presently not subject to income taxes or income tax filing requirements in the Cayman Islands or the United States. As such, the Company’s tax provision was zero for the period presented.
Net Loss Per Ordinary Share
Net loss per ordinary share is computed by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding during the period, excluding ordinary shares subject to forfeiture. Weighted average shares were reduced for the effect of an aggregate of 1,125,000 Class B ordinary shares that are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised (see Note 5). At December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any dilutive securities and other contracts that could, potentially, be exercised or converted into ordinary shares and then share in the earnings of the Company. As a result, diluted loss per ordinary share is the same as basic loss per ordinary share for the period presented.
Concentration of Credit Risk
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. The Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such accounts.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under FASB ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheet, primarily due to their short-term nature.
Recent Accounting Standards
Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting standards, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.
Note 3 — Proposed Public Offering
Pursuant to the Proposed Public Offering, the Company will offer for sale up to 30,000,000 Units (or 34,500,000 Units if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full) at a purchase price of $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit will consist of one Class A ordinary share and
one-fourth
of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant will entitle the holder to purchase one Class A ordinary share at an exercise price of $11.50 per whole share (see Note 7).
 
F-32

ALTIMAR ACQUISITION CORP. II
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
Note 4 — Private Placement
The Sponsor has committed to purchase an aggregate of 9,000,000 Private Placement Warrants (or 9,900,000 Private Placement Warrants if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full) at a price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant, for an aggregate purchase price of $9,000,000 (or $9,900,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), in a private placement that will occur simultaneously with the closing of the Proposed Public Offering. Each Private Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one Class A ordinary share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7). A portion of the proceeds from the Private Placement Warrants will be added to the proceeds from the Proposed Public Offering to be held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Private Placement Warrants will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law) and the Private Placement Warrants will expire worthless.
Note 5 — Related Party Transactions
Founder Shares
On December 15, 2020, the Sponsor paid $25,000 to cover certain offering and formation costs of the Company in consideration for 8,625,000 Class B ordinary shares (the “Founder Shares”). The Founder Shares include an aggregate of up to 1,125,000 shares that are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised, so that the number of Founder Shares will equal, on an
as-converted
basis, approximately 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Proposed Public Offering.
The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of the Founder Shares until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination and (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share
sub-divisions,
share dividends, rights issuances, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any
30-trading
day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Public Shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property.
Administrative Services Agreement
The Company will enter into an agreement, commencing on the date that the securities are first listed on the NYSE through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination and its liquidation, to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a sum of $10,000 per month for office space and secretarial and administrative services.
Promissory Note — Related Party
On December 15, 2020, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) to the Sponsor, pursuant to which the Company may borrow up to an aggregate principal amount of $300,000. The Promissory Note is
non-interest
bearing and payable on the earlier of (i) December 31, 2021 and (ii) the completion of the Proposed Public Offering. As of December 31, 2020, there was $5,000 in borrowings outstanding under the Promissory Note.

Related Party Loans
In order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans, but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $2,000,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into warrants of the post-Business Combination entity at a price of $1.00 per warrant. The warrants would be identical to the Private Placement Warrants. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Working Capital Loans.
Note 6 — Commitments and Contingencies
Risks and Uncertainties
Management continues to evaluate the impact of the
COVID-19
global pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations, close of the Proposed Public Offering and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
Registration and Shareholders Rights
The holders of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and any warrants that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans (and any Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants and warrants that may be issued upon conversion of the Working Capital Loans) will be entitled to registration rights pursuant to a registration and shareholder rights agreement to be signed prior to or on the effective date of the Proposed Public Offering. The holders of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination. However, the registration and shareholder rights agreement provides that the Company will not permit any registration statement filed under the Securities Act to become effective until termination of the applicable lockup period. The registration rights agreement does not contain liquidating damages or other cash settlement provisions resulting from delays in registering the Company’s securities. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.
Underwriting Agreement
The Company will grant the underwriters a
45-day
option to purchase up to 4,500,000 additional Units to cover over-allotments at the Proposed Public Offering price, less the underwriting discounts and commissions.
The underwriters will be entitled to a cash underwriting discount of $0.20 per Unit, or $6,000,000 in the aggregate (or $6,900,000 if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full), payable upon the closing of the Proposed Public Offering. In addition, the underwriters will be entitled to a deferred fee of $0.35 per Unit,

or $10,500,000 in the aggregate (or $12,075,000 in the aggregate if the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full). The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.​​​​​​​

— The Company is authorized to issue 50,000,000 Class B ordinary shares, with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of the Class B ordinary shares are entitled to one vote for each share. At December 31, 2020, there were 8,625,000 Class B ordinary shares issued and outstanding, of which an aggregate of up to 1,125,000 shares are subject to forfeiture depending on the extent to which the underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised, so that the number of Class B ordinary shares will equal 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding ordinary shares after the Proposed Public Offering.
Only holders of the Class B ordinary shares will have the right to vote on the election of directors prior to the Business Combination. Holders of Class A ordinary shares and Class B ordinary shares will vote together as a single class on all other matters submitted to a vote of shareholders, except as required by law. In connection with a Business Combination, the Company may enter into a shareholders agreement or other arrangements with the shareholders of the target or other investors to provide for voting or other governance arrangements that differ from those in effect upon completion of the Proposed Public Offering.
The Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert into Class A ordinary shares at the time of a Business Combination or earlier at the option of the holders thereof at a ratio such that the number of Class A ordinary shares issuable upon conversion of all Founder Shares will equal, in the aggregate, on an
as-converted
basis, 20% of the sum of (i) the total number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the Proposed Public Offering, plus (ii) the total number of Class A ordinary shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any equity-linked securities or rights issued or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of a Business Combination, excluding Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A ordinary shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller of an interest in the target to the Company in a Business Combination and any Private Placement Warrants issued to the Sponsor, its affiliates or any member of the Company’s management team upon conversion of Working Capital Loans. In no event will the Class B ordinary shares convert into Class A ordinary shares at a rate of less than
one-to-one.
Warrants
— Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the Public Warrants. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination and (b) one year from the closing of the Proposed Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years from the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

ALTIMAR ACQUISITION CORP. II
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
The Company will not be obligated to deliver any Class A ordinary shares pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A ordinary shares underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration, or a valid exemption from registration is available. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue a Class A ordinary share upon exercise of a warrant unless the Class A ordinary share issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants.
The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 20 business days, after the closing of a Business Combination, it will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, and the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the same to become effective within 60 business days following the closing of a Business Combination, and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement and a current prospectus relating to those Class A ordinary shares until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement; provided that if the Class A ordinary shares are at the time of any exercise of a public warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, require holders of Public Warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event the Company so elects, the Company will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants, but the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify for sale the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. If a registration statement covering the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th day after the closing of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption, but the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.
Redemption of warrants when the price per Class
 A ordinary share equals or exceeds $18.00.
Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants (except as described with respect to the Private Placement Warrants):
 
   
in whole and not in part;
 
   
at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
 
   
upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and
 
   
if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within a
30-trading
day period ending three trading days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.
If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may exercise its redemption right even if it is unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws.
Redemption of warrants when the price per Class
 A ordinary share equals or exceeds $10.00
. Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the outstanding warrants:
 
   
in whole and not in part;
 
F-36

ALTIMAR ACQUISITION CORP. II
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
   
at $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; provided that holders will be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the Class A ordinary shares;
 
   
if, and only if, the closing price of the Class A ordinary shares equal or exceeds $10.00 per public share (as adjusted) for any 20 trading days within the
30-trading
day period ending three trading days before the Company send the notice of redemption of the warrant holders.
If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, as described above, its management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of ordinary shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a share dividend, extraordinary dividend or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, except as described below, the Public Warrants will not be adjusted for issuances of ordinary shares at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Public Warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of Public Warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their Public Warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with respect to such Public Warrants. Accordingly, the Public Warrants may expire worthless.
In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional Class A ordinary shares or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A ordinary share (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or holders of the Class B ordinary shares or their respective affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor, holders of the Class B ordinary shares or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the consummation of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of its Class A ordinary shares during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day after the day on which the Company consummates its Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $10.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.
The Private Placement Warrants will be identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units being sold in the Proposed Public Offering, except that the Private Placement Warrants and the Class A ordinary shares issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Private Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be
non-redeemable,
except as described above, so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Private Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Private Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

Fathom Holdco, LLC
Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(In thousands, unless otherwise noted)
Note 1 — Nature of Business
Fathom Holdco, LLC (the “Company”) was formed on April 16, 2021 as a limited liability company in accordance with the provisions of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, as amended (the “Delaware Act”), for the purpose of holding a 100 percent equity interest in MCT Group Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries (“MCT Holdings”) and holding a 100 percent equity interest in Incodema Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries (“Incodema Holdings”). For purposes of this report, “Fathom Holdco,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us,” or similar references mean Fathom Holdco, LLC and our consolidated subsidiaries unless the context requires otherwise.
On April 30, 2021, the Company completed a common control reorganization (the “Reorganization”) whereby the interests in both MCT Holdings and Incodema Holdings were contributed to the Company. Prior to and subsequent to the Reorganization, MCT Holdings, Incodema Holdings, and the Company were each, directly or indirectly, under the common control of CORE Industrial Partners Fund I, L.P. (“CORE”) As such, after the completion of the Reorganization, the historical financial statements of the Company were retrospectively updated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) guidance for common control transactions.
The Company and its subsidiaries offer prototyping and
low-volume
services across a variety of
in-house
additive manufacturing technologies, as well as precision sheet metal and finishing services ranging from prototype through
mid-volume
production including internal sheet metal cutting and forming solutions, as well as chemical etching for customers in the aerospace and defense, electronics, medical, automotive, and various other industries. In addition to three-dimensional (“3D”) printing and processing, the Company also offers computer numerical control (“CNC”) machining, injection molding and industrial design capabilities to a diversified customer base in various industries and geographical locations.
Going Concern
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that exist as of the date of issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements that raise doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within the twelve months following issuance.
On April 30, 2021, the Company completed a financing transaction whereby it issued a $172,000 term loan due April 2022 (the “2021 Term Loan”) in order to finance the acquisitions of Centex Machine and Welding, Inc. (“Centex”), Laser Manufacturing, Inc. (“Laser”), Sureshot Precision, LLC d/b/a Micropulse West (“Micropulse West”), and Precision Process Corporation (“PPC”), as well as to refinance the Company’s existing debt, as described in Note 8.
As the Company does not have sufficient cash on hand and cash flow from operations to repay the 2021 Term Loan, the maturity of the 2021 Term Loan raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within the next twelve months. If we are unable to repay, refinance or restructure our 2021 Term Loan, our assets may not be sufficient to repay in full the amounts owed.
To address the upcoming maturity of the 2021 Term Loan, the Company has entered into a new credit facility with its existing creditors (the “New Credit Agreement”). The New Credit Agreement includes a $50,000 revolving credit facility and $125,000 term loan and matures in 2026. The proceeds from these loans will be used to repay the April 2021 Term Loan.
The funding of the New Credit Agreement is contingent on the Company closing a definitive business combination with a publicly traded Special Purpose Acquisition Company (“SPAC”) before April 9, 2022 (the
 
F-43

“SPAC Transaction”). In addition, the cash proceeds of such SPAC Transaction must be in excess of $313,000, or a lesser amount if mutually agreed by the Company and the SPAC.
The Company intends to use the proceeds from the New Credit Agreement to repay the April 2021 Term Loan. If the SPAC Transaction is not completed prior to April 9, 2022, the Company will not receive any funds nor incur any indebtedness from the New Credit Agreement. Given the SPAC Transaction will be subject to regulatory and market conditions, approval by a SPAC’s shareholders, and the SPAC securing adequate financing, it is not within the Company’s control and therefore cannot be deemed probable as of the issuance of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. As a result, the Company has concluded that management’s plans described above do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
These Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company are comprised of the Company’s subsidiaries from the date on which they were acquired. Each subsidiary is wholly owned by either MCT Holdings or Incodema Holdings, both of which are wholly owned by the Company.
The Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the Company, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments, consisting of only recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair representation of the Company’s financial position as of June 30, 2021, its results of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, and its cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020.
The Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020, included herein for comparative purposes, was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated balance sheet for the year ended December 31, 2020.
These Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not contain certain footnote disclosures that were included as part of the Company’s audited annual financial statements. As such, these Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s audited annual financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, which describes the Company’s significant accounting policies and includes all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for annual reporting periods.
Correction of an Immaterial Error
The Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021 includes the correction of an immaterial error related to the classification of loss on extinguishment of debt between financing cash flows and operating cash flows. The correction results in an increase to operating cash flows for the period of $2,031 and a decrease to financing cash flows for the period of $2,031.

Income Taxes
The Company wholly owns U.S. Summit Tooling, Inc. (“Summit Tooling”), Centex, and Laser, which are treated as taxpaying C corporations in the U.S. Each of the Company’s taxpaying subsidiaries were acquired in 2021. Accordingly, the Company provides current and deferred taxes for these entities. The Company and its other subsidiaries are treated as flow-through entities for federal and state income tax purposes and are not subject to income tax as the LLC members are responsible for the tax consequences of each member’s proportionate share of the flow-through income or loss of the remaining Company operations. The Company’s flow-through operations are subject to certain state and local income and franchise taxes, which are included in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss as other income, net. In addition, MCT Holdings’ wholly owned subsidiary, ICO Mold (Shenzhen), LLC, is subject to income tax within the jurisdiction of the People’s Republic of China. Foreign income tax expense was insignificant during both the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020. As such, the Company’s tax provision pertains solely to the taxpaying C corporation subsidiaries.
The Company’s taxable subsidiaries account for income taxes using the asset and liability method, under which deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the future tax consequences of temporary differences between the book carrying values and the tax basis of the assets, liabilities, and tax attributes (e.g., NOLs) of the taxable subsidiaries. The Company is in a net deferred tax liability position which is classified as noncurrent on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. The Company establishes a valuation allowance when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that are more likely than not to be realized. The Company has evaluated the need for a valuation allowance and has determined that deferred tax assets are more likely than not to be realized.
The Company evaluates tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return for financial statement recognition. A tax position is recognized when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation. The Company records the amount of benefits from tax positions taken that have a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon settlement with taxing authorities. Interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits are recognized in the income tax benefits in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss. No interest and penalties were recognized for the periods presented.
COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease caused by a new coronavirus as a “pandemic”. First identified in late 2019 and now known as
COVID-19,
the outbreak has impacted millions of individuals worldwide. As of the date of issuance of the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company’s operations have not been significantly impacted, but the Company continues to monitor the situation. No impairments were recorded as of the Consolidated Balance Sheet dates, as no triggering events or changes in circumstances had occurred as of
year-end;
however, due to uncertainty surrounding the situation, and specifically as it pertains to the current global supply chain disruptions, management’s judgment regarding this could change in the future. In addition, while the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition were not significantly impacted, the extent of any future impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
2016-02,
Leases
, which will supersede the current lease requirements in ASC 840. The ASU requires lessees to recognize a
right-to-use
asset and related lease liability for all leases, with a limited exception for short-term leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of operations. Currently, leases are classified as either capital or operating, with only capital leases recognized on the balance sheet. The new lease guidance will be effective for the
 
F-45

Company’s year ending December 31, 2022 and will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method to either the beginning of the earliest period presented or the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company is still evaluating which method it will apply. The new lease standard is expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s financial statements as a result of the Company’s operating leases, , that will be reported on the balance sheet at adoption. Upon adoption, the Company will recognize a lease liability and corresponding
right-to
use asset based on the present value of the minimum lease payments. The effects on the results of operations are not expected to be significant as recognition and measurement of expenses and cash flows for leases will be substantially the same under the new standard.
The FASB issued ASU
2016-13,
 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326)
, which amends the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables and available for sale debt securities. ASU
2016-13
is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, with early adoption permitted. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of this ASU on its Consolidated Financial Statements.
Note 3 — Business Combinations
The transactions below met the requirements to be considered a business combination under Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805. The accounts, affected for preliminary adjustments to reflect fair market values assigned to assets purchased and liabilities assumed, and results of operations, are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements from the date of acquisition. The Company has allocated the purchase price to the tangible assets, identifiable intangible assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair market values at the acquisition date as required under ASC 805. The excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable tangible assets, intangible assets and liabilities was recorded as goodwill.

The Company’s deferred revenue balance as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is $1,644 and $1,210, respectively. Deferred revenue is the result of billings in excess of revenue being recognized and is recorded in other current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet. Deferred revenue is recognized fully in the following period due to the short-term nature of the customer contracts.
Note 5 — Inventory
Inventory consists primarily of finished goods, raw materials and work in process, which are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value, which approximates
first-in,
first-out
(“FIFO”) cost. The Company periodically reviews its inventory for slow-moving, damaged and discontinued items and writes down such items identified to their net recoverable amounts.

Note 8 — Debt
2018 and 2019 Credit Facilities
During 2018, the Company entered a revolving credit agreement, a term loan and a delayed draw term loan (“DDTL”) credit agreement, which collectively make up the “2018 Credit Facilities”, to support its operations, cash requirements and acquisition growth strategy. During 2019, the Company entered into the second and third amendments to the 2018 Credit Facilities. Under the credit agreement, the Company is subject to various financial covenants, including quarterly fixed-charge coverage ratio; total leverage ratio; and minimum earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”). The credit facility also includes a capital expenditure limit of $3,100 for the year ended December 31, 2020. As of December 31, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all covenant requirements. The 2018 DDTL had unused capacity of $510 December 31, 2020 and was fully repaid as of June 30, 2021.
2020 Credit Facilities
On July 27, 2020, the Company entered into a $34,500 secured, unsubordinated credit facility with a financial institution, consisting of a $19,500 term loan and a $15,000 delayed draw term loan, with a maturity of July 27, 2026. At closing, $19,500 was funded and along with cash on the Company’s balance sheet, used to finance the acquisition of Incodema and Newchem. The term loan credit facility resulted in issuance costs of
 
F-54

$520, which were capitalized. The loan is secured by pledged equity interests and the assets of the Company, including, but not limited to, cash and deposits, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets. Under the agreements, the Company is subject to various financial covenants, including a fixed charge coverage ratio and total net leverage ratio, and required to make quarterly principal installments commencing on September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2021 through the end of the term in the amounts of $50 and $100 for the term loan and delayed draw term loan, respectively. Commencing with the year ending December 31, 2021, mandatory prepayments are required from the Company’s Excess Cash Flow, as defined by the Credit Agreement. Borrowing under the Term Loan Facility is in U.S. Dollars and bears interest at a variable interest rate based on LIBOR plus a net leverage-based margin, which was 7.738% per annum as of December 31, 2020.
On December 16, 2020, the Company entered into the first amendment to the 2020 Credit Facility. Pursuant to the amendment, the availability on the delayed draw term loan was increased to $40,500. The Company is charged a Commitment Fee of 0.5% for the initial 6 month period and 1.0% following the six month period on the unused portion of the delayed draw term loan. The amendment resulted in issuance costs of $692 of which $660 were capitalized and $32 were expensed. Borrowings on the delayed draw term loan amount were not drawn until acquisitions of Dahlquist, Mark Two, and Majestic Metals beginning
mid-December
as described in Note 3. The 2020 DDTL was fully drawn as of December 31, 2020 and was repaid as of June 30, 2021.
2021 Term Loan
On April 30, 2021, the Company completed a financing transaction whereby it issued a $172,000 term loan due April 2022 (the “2021 Term Loan”) in order to finance the acquisitions of Centex, Laser, Micropulse West, and PPC, as well as to refinance the Company’s existing debt. The 2021 Term Loan is due for repayment on April 29, 2022. As discussed further in Notes 1 and 15, on July 9, 2021 the Company entered into an agreement to refinance the 2021 Term Loan on a permanent basis, subject to certain conditions. See Notes 1 and 15 for further information.
Paycheck Protection Program Loan
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received a Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan in the amount of $1,624 through the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act.
In April 2021, the Company’s PPP loan was forgiven in full by the SBA and the Company recorded a gain of $1,624 which was recorded to Other Income on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Note 10 — Earnings Per Unit
Basic and diluted earnings per common unit is presented in conformity with the
two-class
method required for participating securities. The holders of the Company’s Class A Preferred Units are entitled to accrue cumulative dividends at the rate of 8% per annum. The Company considered its contingently redeemable preferred units to be participating securities and, in accordance with the
two-class
method, earnings allocated to preferred units have been excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net income or loss per common unit.
Basic net loss per unit is computed based on the weighted average number of common units outstanding. Diluted net loss per unit is computed based on the weighted average number of common units outstanding, increased by the number of any additional units that would have been outstanding had any potentially dilutive common units been issued and reduced by the number of units the Company could have repurchased from the proceeds from issuance of the potentially dilutive units. The Company had no dilutive instruments outstanding as of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020. As a result, basic and diluted earnings per units are the same as of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020.
 
F-57

The Company’s Class A and Class B common units participate equally in the Company’s undistributed earnings. As such, the Company’s undistributed earnings are allocated
pro-rata
to the Class A and Class B common units based on the weighted Class A common and Class B common units outstanding as of June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 such that earnings per unit for Class A and Class B common units are the same in each period.

Note 11 — Related Party Transactions
Affiliate Purchases
Certain employees of the Company had a
non-controlling
ownership interest in an affiliated entity, Fathom Precision International Ltd., which supplies services to the Company. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, purchases from such affiliate were $3,434 and $3,018, respectively.
Management Fees
MCT Holdings and Incodema Holdings entered into a management services agreement with an entity related through common ownership to the majority member in August 2018 and July 2020, respectively. For the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, the Company incurred expenses related to such management fees of $835 and $223, respectively.
See Note 3 for additional disclosure of transaction fees paid to the same entity related through common ownership to the majority member.
Note 12 — Fair Value Measurement
Accounting standards require certain assets and liabilities be reported at fair value in the financial statements and provide a framework for establishing that fair value. The framework for determining fair value is based on a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
 
F-58

Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset. These Level 3 fair value measurements are based primarily on management’s own estimates using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques considering the characteristics of the asset.
In instances whereby inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is significant to the valuation. The Company’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.
The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:
Contingent Consideration:
The fair values for earnouts payable are determined by using a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) approach with unobservable inputs and is classified as a Level 3 liability in the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, are summarized below:

The valuation techniques used to determine the fair value of the contingent consideration as of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 included a combination of discounted cash flow, Black-Scholes-Merton model, and Monte Carlo simulation. The significant unobservable inputs used in the calculation of fair value include the
 
F-59

discount rate, volatility, and credit spreads. The discount rates range from 2.9% to 18.8%, the volatility ranges from 15.3% to 80.2%, and the credit spreads range from 5.2% to 6.6%.
Debt:
As of June 30, 2021, the fair value of the 2021 Term Loan approximates its carrying value.
Note 13 — Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is subject to various claims and lawsuits that arise in the ordinary course of business. It is the opinion of management that the disposition or ultimate resolution of such claims and lawsuits will not have a material effect on the consolidated financial position of the Company.
Additionally, the Company is a defendant in a hybrid collective/class action complaint filed by one of its former employees for alleged violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act and Wisconsin wage and hour law. Management notes that at this stage in the proceedings, no opinion as to the probable outcome can be offered. The parties have agreed to engage in settlement discussions and at this time an estimate of the settlement is unknown.
Note 14 — Income Taxes
The Company and most of its subsidiaries are treated as flow-through entities for federal and state income tax purposes and are not subject to income tax as the LLC members are responsible for the tax consequences of each member’s proportionate share of the flow-through income or loss. As such, the Company’s tax provision pertains solely to its subsidiaries which are taxable C corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 3.5% and 0% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, respectively. The change in the Company’s effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 relates to the acquisitions of three taxable C corporations during 2021. The effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021 differs from the statutory tax rate of 21% primarily as a result of state taxes and the impact of certain transaction costs which were capitalized for tax purposes, but are not expected to result in deductions in future tax periods.
As of June 30, 2021, the Company did not recognize income tax expense or benefits associated with uncertain tax positions.
Significant components of the Company’s tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020, are as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
 
Board of Managers and Members
Fathom Holdco, LLC
 
Opinion on the financial statements
 
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Fathom Holdco, LLC (a Delaware limited liability company) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the related consolidated statements of comprehensive loss, Class A contingently redeemable preferred units and members’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2020, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
 
Going concern
 
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, as of December 31, 2020, the Company does not have sufficient cash on hand and cash flows from operations to repay debt maturing during April 2022. On July 9, 2021 the Company entered into a new credit facility with its existing creditors. The new credit facility includes a $50,000,000 revolver and $125,000,000 term loan, both of which will mature in 2026. The proceeds from these loans will be used to repay existing debt maturing April 2022. Funding under the new credit facility is contingent on the Company closing a definitive business combination with a publicly traded Special Purpose Acquisition Company (“SPAC”), which is subject to customary conditions including, among others, the approval of the SPAC stockholders and the SPAC having a minimum level of available cash, which are outside of the Company’s control. There is no guarantee that the business combination contemplated in the new credit facility will be completed and therefore the Company has concluded that substantial doubt exists about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.
 
Basis for opinion
 
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
 
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB and in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
 
F-62

 
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Fathom Holdco, LLC
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(dollars in thousands, unless otherwise noted)
Note 1 — Nature of Business
Fathom Holdco, LLC (the “Company”) was formed on April 16, 2021 as a limited liability company in accordance with the provisions of the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act, as amended (the “Delaware Act”), for the purpose of holding a 100 percent equity interest in MCT Group Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries (“MCT Holdings”) and holding a 100 percent equity interest in Incodema Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries (“Incodema Holdings”). As of December 31, 2020, both MCT Holdings and Incodema Holdings were under the common control of CORE Industrial Partners Fund I, L.P. (“CORE”).
MCT Holdings was formed on August 27, 2018 as a limited liability company in accordance with the Delaware Act for the purpose of holding 100 percent of the equity interest in Midwest Composite Technologies, LLC, acquired on August 31, 2018, acquiring 100 percent of the equity interest in Kemeera, LLC d/b/a FATHOM (“FATHOM”) on September 23, 2019, and acquiring 100 percent of the equity interest in ICO Mold, LLC on December 2, 2019, as further described in Note 3.
Incodema Holdings was formed on July 15, 2020 as a limited liability company in accordance with the Delaware Act for the purpose of acquiring 100 percent of the equity interest in Incodema, LLC and Newchem, LLC on July 27, 2020, acquiring Dahlquist Machine, LLC on December 15, 2020, acquiring Majestic Metals, LLC on December 17, 2020 and acquiring Mark Two Engineering, LLC on December 18, 2020, as further described in Note 3.
On April 30, 2021, CORE completed a reorganization whereby the interests in both MCT Holdings and Incodema Holdings were contributed to the Company. As such, the Company determined that the financial statements being presented should be the consolidated financial statements of the Company, inclusive of its wholly owned subsidiaries MCT Holdings and Incodema Holdings, with Incodema Holdings being reflected in the consolidated financial statements effective as of July 27, 2020, or the date it came under common control with MCT Holdings. Accordingly, the contingently redeemable Series A Preferred Units, members’ equity, and earnings per unit of the Company is retrospectively presented on a consolidated basis in these consolidated financial statements
The Company and its subsidiaries offer prototyping and
low-volume
services across a variety of
in-house
additive manufacturing technologies, as well as precision sheet metal and finishing services ranging from prototype through
mid-volume
production including internal sheet metal cutting and forming solutions, as well as chemical etching for customers in the aerospace and defense, electronics, medical, automotive, and various other industries. In addition to three-dimensional (“3D”) printing and processing, the Company also offers computer numerical control (“CNC”) machining, injection molding and industrial design capabilities to a diversified customer base in various industries and geographical locations. The Company’s principal operations are located in or in the surrounding areas of Newark, New York; Ithaca, New York; Denver, Colorado; Miami, Florida; Minneapolis, Minnesota; Oakland, California; Toledo, Ohio; Hartland, Wisconsin; Seattle, Washington; and Shenzhen, China.
Going Concern
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events that exist as of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements that raise doubt as to the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within the twelve months following issuance.
On April 30, 2021, the Company completed a financing transaction whereby it issued a $172,000 term loan due April 2022 (the “2021 Term Loan”) in order to finance the acquisitions of Centex Machine and Welding, Inc.
 
F-68

(“Centex”), Laser Manufacturing, Inc. (“Laser”), Sureshot Precision, LLC d/b/a Micropulse West (“Micropule West”), and Precision Process Corporation (“PPC”), as well as to refinance the Company’s existing debt, as described in Note 8.
As the Company does not have sufficient cash on hand and cash flow from operations to repay the 2021 Term Loan, the maturity of the 2021 Term Loan raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern within the next twelve months. If we are unable to repay, refinance or restructure our 2021 Term Loan, our assets may not be sufficient to repay in full the amounts owed.
To address the upcoming maturity of the 2021 Term Loan, the Company has entered into a new credit facility with its existing creditors (the “New Credit Agreement”). The New Credit Agreement includes a $50,000 revolving credit facility and $125,000 term loan and matures in 2026. The proceeds from these loans will be used to repay the 2021 Term Loan.
The funding of the New Credit Agreement is contingent on the Company closing a definitive business combination with a publicly traded Special Purpose Acquisition Company (“SPAC”) before April 9, 2022 (the “SPAC Transaction”). In addition, the cash proceeds of such SPAC Transaction must be in excess of $313,000, or a lesser amount if mutually agreed by the Company and the SPAC.
The Company intends to use the proceeds from the New Credit Agreement to repay the 2021 Term Loan. If the SPAC Transaction is not completed prior to April 9, 2022, the Company will not receive any funds nor incur any indebtedness from the New Credit Agreement. Given the SPAC Transaction will be subject to regulatory and market conditions, approval by a SPAC’s shareholders, and the SPAC securing adequate financing, it is not within the Company’s control and therefore cannot be deemed probable as of the issuance of these consolidated financial statements. As a result, the Company has concluded that management’s plans described above do not alleviate substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for the next twelve months.
The accompanying financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty. Accordingly, the financial statements have been prepared on a basis that assumes the Company will continue as a going concern and which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the ordinary course of business.
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation of the Consolidated Financial Statements
The consolidated financial statements of the Company are comprised of the Company’s subsidiaries from the date on which they were acquired. Each subsidiary is wholly owned by either MCT Holdings or Incodema Holdings, both of which are wholly owned by the Company. The Company’s subsidiaries include: Midwest Composite Technologies, LLC (a Wisconsin Limited Liability Company); Kemeera LLC (a California Limited Liability Company); ICO Mold, LLC (a Delaware Limited Liability Company), Incodema, LLC (a New York Limited Liability Company); Newchem, LLC (a New York Limited Liability Company); Dahlquist Machine, LLC (a Minnesota Limited Liability Company); Majestic Metals, LLC (a Colorado Limited Liability Company); and Mark Two Engineering, LLC (a Florida Limited Liability Company).
The Consolidated Financial Statements as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
 
F-69

COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease caused by a new coronavirus as a “pandemic”. First identified in late 2019 and now known as
COVID-19,
the outbreak has impacted millions of individuals worldwide. As of the date of issuance of the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company’s operations have not been significantly impacted, but the Company continues to monitor the situation. No impairments were recorded as of the Consolidated Balance Sheet dates, as no triggering events or changes in circumstances had occurred as of
year-end;
however, due to uncertainty surrounding the situation, and specifically as it pertains to the current global supply chain disruptions, management’s judgment regarding this could change in the future. In addition, while the Company’s results of operations, cash flows and financial condition were not significantly impacted, the extent of any future impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Correction of an Immaterial Error
The Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2020 includes the correction of an immaterial error related to contingent consideration. The correction relates to a reclassification of certain amounts between assets and liabilities comprised of a decrease in (short-term) contingent consideration of $8,726, a decrease to accounts receivable of $101, and decrease to other current assets of $144, a decrease to property and equipment, net of $418, a decrease to other non-current assets of $48, an increase to accounts payable of $253, an increase of $389 to other non-current liabilities, and an increase to long-term contingent consideration of $7,373.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents include cash and other short-term investments with original maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase. The Company maintains cash in bank deposit accounts which at times may exceed federally insured deposit limits. The Company has not experienced any losses on such accounts and considers such associated credit risk to be immaterial to the Company’s financial statements.
Credit Risk, Major Customers, and Suppliers
The Company extends trade credit to its customers on terms that are generally practiced in the industry. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company did not have any customers that accounted for more than 10% of revenue. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, approximately 19% and 12%, respectively, of inventory purchases were from a single related party supplier, Fathom Precision International Ltd. See Note 15.
Trade Accounts Receivable, Unbilled Revenue and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
Accounts receivable are stated at net invoice amounts. Unbilled revenue represents receivables due from customers as either the performance obligation has been completed for revenue recognized over time or the product has shipped and the customer invoice has yet to be generated. The balance in unbilled revenue, included in accounts receivable, was $173 and $634 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. An allowance for doubtful accounts is established based on a specific assessment of all invoices that remain unpaid following normal customer payment periods. In addition, a general valuation allowance is established for the remaining accounts receivable that have not been specifically assessed based on historical loss experience as well as geographic and general economic conditions. All amounts deemed to be uncollectible are charged against the allowance for doubtful accounts in the period that determination is made. The allowance for doubtful accounts on accounts receivable balances was $649 as of December 31, 2020 and $386 as of December 31, 2019.

Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value (“NRV”), with NRV based on selling prices in
the ordinary course of business, less costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Costs are determined on the
first-in,
first-out
(“FIFO”) method.
 
F-70

Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost or fair value, if acquired in the business combinations, as described in Note 3. The straight-line method is used for computing depreciation and amortization. Assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The cost of leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the length of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred.

Goodwill
The Company recognizes goodwill in accordance with ASC 350,
Intangibles—Goodwill and Other.
Goodwill is the excess of costs of an acquired entity over the amounts assigned to assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination. Goodwill is not amortized. Goodwill is tested for impairment annually on October 1st of each year and is tested for impairment between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate the carrying amount may be impaired. During the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company performed a quantitative analysis, which indicated that no impairment charges for goodwill were required to be recognized.
Intangible Assets
Acquired intangible assets subject to amortization are stated at cost and are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Intangible assets that are subject to amortization are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable. During 2019 and 2020 there were no impairments of intangible assets.
Foreign Currency Exchange and Translation
The expression of assets and liabilities in a foreign currency amount gives rise to exchange gains and losses when such obligations are paid in United States dollars. Foreign currency exchange rate adjustment (i.e., differences between amounts recorded and actual amounts owed or paid) are reported in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss as foreign currency fluctuations occur. Foreign currency exchange rate adjustments are reported in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows using the exchange rates in effect at the time of the cash flows. Adjustments for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019 were immaterial.
Assets and liabilities of the Company’s operations in China are translated into U.S. dollars at the rate of exchange in effect at the close of the period. Income and expenses are translated at an average rate of exchange for the period. The aggregate effect of translating the financial statements is included in other comprehensive loss.
Fair Value Measurements
Accounting standards require certain assets and liabilities be reported at fair value in the financial statements and provide a framework for establishing that fair value. The framework for determining fair value is based on a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value. There are three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Fair values determined by Level 1 inputs use quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access.
 
F-71

Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs use other inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets and other inputs such as interest rates and yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals.
Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs, including inputs that are available in situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the related asset. These Level 3 fair value measurements are based primarily on management’s own estimates using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques considering the characteristics of the asset.
In instances whereby inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels in the above fair value hierarchy, fair value measurements in their entirety are categorized based on the lowest level input that is
significant to the valuation. The Company’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.
Debt Issuance Costs
Debt issuance costs were incurred by the Company in connection with obtaining the debt to finance the acquisitions disclosed in Note 3. If such financing is settled or replaced prior to maturity with debt instruments that have substantially different terms, the settlement is treated as an extinguishment and the unamortized costs are charged to gain or loss on extinguishment of debt. If such financing is settled or replaced with debt instruments from the same lender that do not have substantially different terms, the new debt agreement is accounted for as a modification of the prior debt agreement and the unamortized costs remain capitalized, the new original issuance discount costs are capitalized, and any new third-party costs are charged to expense. These costs are recorded as a reduction in the recorded balance of the outstanding debt. The costs are amortized over the term of the related debt and reported as a component of interest expense by using the straight-line method which is not materially different than the effective interest method.
Revenue Recognition
On January 1, 2019, the Company adopted ASC 606,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
, using the modified retrospective approach. Most of the Company’s revenue has one performance obligation and is recognized on a
point-in-time
basis upon shipment. The majority of the Company’s injection molding contracts have multiple performance obligations including one obligation to produce the mold and sample part and a second obligation to produce production parts. For injection molding contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price and recognizes revenue for each performance obligation on a
point-in-time
basis upon shipment. We generally determine standalone selling price based on the price charged to customers. The Company’s payments terms are consistent with industry standards and never exceed 12 months.
Income Taxes
As a limited liability company, the Company has elected to report as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes at a consolidated level. Consequently, federal income taxes are not payable or provided for by the Company. Members are taxed individually on their
pro-rata
ownership share of the Company’s earnings. The Company’s net income or loss is allocated among the members in accordance with the Company’s operating agreement. The Company is subject to certain state and local income and franchise taxes, which are included in the Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss as other income, net. In addition, MCT Holding’s wholly owned subsidiary, ICO Mold (Shenzhen), LLC, is subject to income within the jurisdiction of the People’s Republic of China. Foreign income tax expense was insignificant during both the year ended December 31, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019.
 
F-72

Other Comprehensive Loss
Accounting principles generally require that recognized revenue, expenses, gains and losses be included in net income. Certain changes in assets and liabilities, however, such as foreign currency translation adjustments, are reported as a direct adjustment to the equity section of the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Such items, along with net income, are considered components of comprehensive loss.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
2016-02,
Leases
, which will supersede the current lease requirements in ASC 840. The ASU requires lessees to recognize a
right-to-use
asset and related lease liability for all leases, with a limited exception for short-term leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of operations. Currently, leases are classified as either capital or operating, with only capital leases recognized on the balance sheet. The new lease guidance will be effective for the Company’s year ending December 31, 2022 and will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method to either the beginning of the earliest period presented or the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company is still evaluating which method it will apply. The new lease standard is expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s financial statements as a result of the Company’s operating leases, as disclosed in Note 9, that will be reported on the balance sheet at adoption. Upon adoption, the Company will recognize a lease liability and corresponding
right-to
use asset based on the present value of the minimum lease payments. The effects on the results of operations are not expected to be significant as recognition and measurement of expenses and cash flows for leases will be substantially the same under the new standard.
The FASB issued ASU
2016-13,
 Financial Instruments—Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (Topic 326)

Note 4 — Revenue
The Company accounts for revenue in accordance with ASC 606,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
, which the Company adopted on January 1, 2019, using the modified retrospective method. The adoption of ASC 606 did not have a material impact on our Consolidated Financial Statements.
Revenue is recognized in five steps. The Company identifies the contract with the customer, identifies the performance obligations in the contract, determines the transaction price, allocates the transaction price to the performance obligations, and recognizes revenue when (or as) each performance obligation is satisfied. Collectability is a required component of a valid contract. The Company assesses collectability based on a number of factors, including the customer’s past payment history and current creditworthiness. If collectability is not considered probable at inception, the Company will not have a valid contract.
The Company provides high quality, advanced rapid prototyping, precision manufacturing and finishing services in
low-to-mid
volume production scenarios. The Company’s suite of
on-demand
digital manufacturing services includes additive manufacturing, machining, and molding technologies as well as sheet metal cutting, etching, and forming solutions for customers in the aerospace and defense, electronics, medical, automotive, consumer, and industrial industries, among others. As a result, the majority of revenue recognized in a reporting period is based on completed, invoiced contracts.
A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer, and is the unit of account in ASC 606. The majority of the Company’s Additive Manufacturing, CNC Machining, Urethane Casting, Precision Sheet Metal, and Chemical Etching contracts have a single performance obligation. The majority of the Company’s injection molding contracts have multiple performance obligations including one obligation to produce the mold and sample part and a second obligation to produce production parts. For injection molding contracts with multiple performance obligations, we allocate revenue to each performance obligation based on its relative standalone selling price. We generally determine standalone selling price based on the price charged to customers.
Below is a listing of the Company’s major sales product lines and their recognition patterns:
Additive Manufacturing
Our Additive Manufacturing product line utilizes plastic and metal 3D printing technology to provide a wide-variety of high-quality, precision rapid prototyping solutions and low volume production. Performance obligations are dictated by the contractual shipping terms agreed upon by the Company and its customers. Revenue is recognized at a point in time based on shipping terms.
Injection Molding
Our Injection Molding product line uses our 3D CAD machining technology for the automated design and manufacture custom tooling and small to medium part production runs. Tooling and sampling production and part production runs are recognized at a point in time based on shipping terms.
Computer Numerical Control (“CNC”) Machining
Our CNC Machining product line delivers high-quality precision parts by way of modern machining methods to drive more outstanding results. Performance obligations are dictated by the contractual shipping terms agreed upon by the Company and its customers. Revenue is recognized at a point in time based on shipping terms.
 
F-82

Precision Sheet Metal
Our Precision Sheet Metal product line includes efficient quick-turn custom sheet metal parts from prototype to
mid-volume
production runs. In addition, the Precision Sheet Metal product line includes chemical etching. Chemical etching provides customers the ability to quickly make complex precision parts and decorative items – beyond hard tool capability and without the cost – fabricated in dead soft or full hard material without burrs or metal distortion. Performance obligations for the Precision Sheet Metal product line are dictated by the contractual shipping terms agreed upon by the Company and its customers. Revenue is recognized at a point in time based on shipping terms.
Other Product Lines
Urethane Casting
Our Urethane Casting product line is most commonly used during prototyping, including finished looking parts for final tests and presentations, and low volume production. Performance obligations are dictated by the contractual shipping terms agreed upon by the Company and its customers. Revenue is recognized at a point in time based on shipping terms.
The remaining other product lines include, but are not limited to,
in-house
assistance, and industrial design, engineering services, finishing and assembly services, and customer crating and packaging. Revenue is recognized over time for professional services based on hours incurred as periodically invoiced and at a point in time based on shipping terms for the other manufacturing-related services. Services related revenues are immaterial to the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

The Company generally expenses sales commissions when incurred because the amortization period would have been one year or less. These costs are recorded within selling, general, and administrative expenses.
The Company’s deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2020 and 2019 is $1,210 and $368, respectively. Deferred revenue is the result of billings in excess of revenue being recognized and is recorded in other current liabilities on the Company’s balance sheet. Deferred revenue is recognized fully in the following period due to the short-term nature of the customer contracts.
Note 5 — Inventory
Inventory consists primarily of finished goods, raw materials and work in process, which are recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value, which approximates
first-in,
first-out
(“FIFO”) cost. The Company periodically reviews its inventory for slow-moving, damaged and discontinued items and writes down such items identified to their net recoverable amounts.

Note 8 — Long-Term Debt
2018 and 2019 Credit Facilities
On August 31, 2018, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement with a bank permitting aggregate borrowings of up to $1,500 pursuant to a secured, unsubordinated revolving credit facility with a maturity date of August 31, 2023. The revolving credit facility supports our operations and cash requirements. Under the agreement, the Company is subject to certain covenants, as discussed below. A commitment fee of 0.5% per annum is charged on the unused commitments. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are available in U.S. Dollars and bear interest at a variable interest rate based on LIBOR plus a senior net leverage-based margin, which were 7.75% and 8.30% per annum as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, there were no outstanding borrowings on the revolving credit facility.
On August 31, 2018, the Company entered into a $15,000 term loan and a $10,000 delayed draw term loan credit agreement with a bank that provided a secured, unsubordinated term loan credit facility with a maturity of August 23, 2023. The loan is secured by pledged equity interests and the assets of the Company, including, but not limited to, cash and deposits, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets. The term loans support our acquisition growth strategy. Under the agreements, the Company is subject to certain covenants, as discussed below, and required to make quarterly principal installments through the end of the term. A draw down fee of 1% is charged on the delayed draw term loan. Borrowing under the term loan facility is in U.S. Dollars and bears interest at a variable interest rate based on LIBOR plus a senior net leverage-based margin, which were 7.75% and 8.30% per annum as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The term loan credit facility resulted in issuance costs of which $390 were capitalized. The term loan credit facility combined with the revolving credit facility make up the “2018 Credit Facilities.”
 
F-85

On September 23, 2019, the Company entered into the second amendment to the 2018 Credit Facilities. Pursuant to the amendment, Fathom, acquired at the same time as the amendment, became a borrower under the credit agreement, and the total commitment on the delayed draw term loan was reduced from $10,000 to $8,500
On December 2, 2019, the Company entered into the third amendment to the 2018 Credit Facilities. Pursuant to the amendment, an additional $15,000 term loan was issued as part of financing for the ICOMold acquisition as described in Note 3. The amendment also established ICOMold as a borrower under the credit agreement, reduced the total commitment on the delayed draw term loan, reduced the original term loan principal, and resulted in additional issuance costs of $461 of which $344 was capitalized and $117 were expensed.
On May 31, 2020, the total commitment on the Delayed Draw Term Loan (“DDTL”) was reduced to $3,500. As per the agreement, the total commitment amount was to be reduced by any remaining unused commitment in excess of $3,500 on this date. Availability of advances from the delayed draw term loan expired on February 26, 2021.
On August 18, 2020, the Company drew $2,000 on the delayed draw term loan as part of financing for the GPI acquisition as described in Note 3.
The credit agreement requires annual mandatory prepayments based on a percentage of the Company’s excess cash flow defined by the credit agreement. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, no additional prepayment was required related to the excess cash flow.
Under the credit agreement, the Company is subject to various financial covenants, including quarterly fixed-charge coverage ratio; total leverage ratio; and minimum earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”). The credit facility also includes a capital expenditure limit of $3,100 and $2,750 for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, as well as interim periods, the Company is in compliance with all covenant requirements. The 2018 DDTL had unused capacity of $510 and $7,507 as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The 2018 Credit Facilities mature on August 31, 2023.

On July 27, 2020, the Company entered into a $34,500 secured, unsubordinated credit facility with a financial institution, consisting of a $19,500 term loan and a $15,000 delayed draw term loan, with a maturity of July 27, 2026. At closing, $19,500 was funded and along with cash on the Company’s balance sheet, used to finance the acquisition of Incodema and Newchem as discussed in Note 3. The term loan credit facility resulted in issuance costs of $520, which were capitalized. The loan is secured by pledged equity interests and the assets of the Company, including, but not limited to, cash and deposits, inventory, property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets. Under the agreements, the Company is subject to various financial covenants, including a fixed charge coverage ratio and total net leverage ratio, and required to make quarterly principal installments commencing on September 30, 2020 and March 31, 2021 through the end of the term in the amounts of $50 and $100 for the term loan and delayed draw term loan, respectively.

$660 were capitalized and $32 were expensed. Borrowings on the delayed draw term loan amount were not drawn until acquisitions of Dahlquist, Mark Two, and Majestic Metals beginning
mid-December
as described in Note 3. The 2020 DDTL was fully drawn as of December 31, 2020.
The 2020 Credit Facilities mature on July 27, 2026.
Paycheck Protection Program Loan
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company received a Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) loan in the amount of $1,624 through the Small Business Administration (“SBA”) under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act. At the time of submission of the application and at the time the PPP Loan was funded, the Company satisfied and the Company continues to satisfy all of the applicable criteria for the PPP Loan set forth in the Small Business Act (15 U.S.C. 636(a)) and the CARES Act. Under the terms of this program, the loan may be fully or partially forgiven if the loan proceeds are spent on qualifying expenses and if staffing level and salary maintenance requirements are met. The Company was permitted to use the funds on qualifying expenses over a covered period of up to 24 weeks. At the conclusion of the covered period, any balance that is not forgiven by the SBA will be repaid within two years from issuance date with interest accruing at a rate of 1.0 percent, with monthly payments of principal and interest beginning ten months after the conclusion of the covered period.
Additionally, the Company assumed additional PPP loans during the year ended December 31, 2020 in the amount of $991 through the acquisitions of Dahlquist and Mark Two as discussed in Note 3. For PPP loans assumed through these acquisitions (the “Assumed PPP Loans”), the applicable seller agreed to indemnify the Company of all losses which the Company may suffer, sustain or become subject to as a result of or related to any applicable Assumed PPP Loan. As such, an indemnification asset of $991 was recorded as of the acquisition of each company and the balance thereof is included in other assets.
Any request for forgiveness is subject to review and approval by the lender and the SBA, including review of qualifying expenditures and staffing and salary levels.
Subsequent to December 31, 2020, the Company has submitted requests for forgiveness. The Company expects to receive forgiveness for the entire loan balance in 2021. There can be no assurance that any portion of the PPP loans will be forgiven.

The rights and preferences of holders of the redeemable convertible preferred stock are as follows:
Dividends
The Company’s Class A Contingently Redeemable Preferred Units (“Class A Preferred Units”) were issued at $100 par per unit and accumulate a preferred return at 8.0 percent, compounded on the first business day of each calendar quarter in respect of the prior calendar quarter.
The Company does not record any changes in carrying value of the Class A Preferred Units due to cumulative unpaid dividends. Dividends are accrued at the time they are declared by the Company’s Board of Managers. No dividends were declared or paid on the Class A Preferred Units in the years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
Voting Rights
Class A Contingently Redeemable Preferred unitholders are not entitled to voting rights.
Redemption
The Company shall make a distribution to each of the Class A Preferred unitholders in an amount equal to the aggregate Class A Preferred unpaid yield and Class A Preferred unreturned capital, effective upon the
 
F-89

occurrence of any of the following events (referred to as a “redemption event”): the sale, lease, license, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of a majority of the assets of the subsidiaries of the Company; the merger, consolidation, recapitalization, reorganization or sale of securities; any merger, consolidation, joint venture or other business combination pursuant to which the Company is combined with that of a special purpose acquisition company or other blank-check company which has a class of equity securities publicly listed on a national securities exchange; or a Public Offering with respect to Holdings LLC or any of its Subsidiaries, the reorganization of Holdings LLC or any of its Subsidiaries from a limited liability company to a corporation (whether or not in connection with a Public Offering) or an election by Holdings LLC to be treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
As a result, the Class A Preferred Units are recorded separately from members’ equity because they are redeemable upon the occurrence of redemption events that are considered not solely within the Company’s control.
The Company expensed issuance costs related to the Class A Preferred Stock as incurred for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2020. The amounts expensed were immaterial to the Company’s financial statements.
Note 13 — Members’ Equity
The Company’s equity consists of Class A Common Units and Class B Common Units.
See Note 3 for member units issued as part of business combination transactions in 2020 and 2019.
Unit holders of Class A common units Class B common units share equally in the undistributed income of the Company after consideration of the cumulative unpaid dividends related to the Class A Preferred Units. Allocations and distributions to incentive units are subject to certain participation thresholds set by the managers of Company. Unit holders of Class A Common Units are entitled to one vote per Class A Common Unit held and unit holders of Class B Common Units are not entitled to vote.

Note 14 — Earnings Per Unit
Basic and diluted earnings per common unit is presented in conformity with the
two-class
method required for participating securities. The holders of the Company’s Class A Preferred Units are entitled to accrue cumulative dividends at the rate of 8% per annum. The Company considered its contingently redeemable preferred units to be participating securities and, in accordance with the
two-class
method, earnings allocated to preferred units have been excluded from the computation of basic and diluted net income or loss per common unit.
 
F-90

Basic net income (loss) per unit is computed based on the weighted average number of common units outstanding. Diluted net income (loss) per unit is computed based on the weighted average number of common units outstanding, increased by the number of any additional units that would have been outstanding had any potentially dilutive common units been issued and reduced by the number of units the Company could have repurchased from the proceeds from issuance of the potentially dilutive units. The Company had no dilutive instruments outstanding as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. As a result, basic and diluted earnings per units are the same as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
The Company’s Class A and Class B common units participate equally in the Company’s undistributed earnings. As such, the Company’s undistributed earnings are allocated
pro-rata
to the Class A and Class B common units based on the weighted Class A common and Class B common units outstanding in 2020 and 2019 such that earnings per unit for Class A and Class B common units are the same in each period.
The computation of basic and diluted earnings per Class A common and Class B common unit for all periods disclosed was calculated using the shares issued to previous unitholders in connection with the Company’s reorganization on April 30
th
, 2021 which is further described in Note 1, Note 2, and Note 20.

Note 16 — Share Based Compensation
The Company has two share-based compensation plans as described below. Total compensation cost that has been charged against income for those plans was $34 and $21 for 2020 and 2019, respectively.
MCT Holdings 2019 Phantom Equity Bonus Plan (the “MCT Plan”) and Incodema Holdings’ 2020 Phantom Equity Bonus Plan (the “Incodema Plan”), both of which are unitholder approved, permit the grant of phantom units to eligible employee recipients for up to 10,000 phantom units for each respective plan. The awards were established for the purpose of providing recipients with a financial incentive through the opportunity to earn bonus compensation tied to appreciation in the equity value of MCT Holdings and Incodema Holdings, respectively.
The awards under both plans have two vesting components: (1) time vesting and; (2) performance vesting. A quarter (25%) of the awards vest ratably, in equal installments, on each of first four employment commencement date anniversaries or vest in full upon the consummation of the sale of the Company. The remaining three-quarters (75%) of the awards vest if the MCT Holdings and Incodema Holdings investors realize a Multiple on Invested Capital (“MOIC”) of at least 2x upon the consummation of such sale of each company.
The award units are representative of a percentage of the proceeds from the sale, allowing for up to 10,000 units to be awarded and 10% of the value of the sale to be
paid-out
so long as the investors realize a MOIC of at least 2x for each respective company. The time vesting component, or service condition, is designed to retain talent for the lesser of four years or the consummation of the sale. As such, as long as grantees are in good standing with the company upon a sale, they are entitled to a minimum of a quarter (25%) of the units granted and the resulting payout regardless of the performance condition (outside of the Sale) being met.
Awards will be settled in cash based on the percentage of proceeds they represent in accordance with the outlined calculations in the plans. However, the administrator, in its sole discretion, can determine if any or all proceeds payable are to be in a form other than cash or marketable securities. Awards shall be payable in the same mix of consideration received by all such holders of equity in the company. If the administrator determines to pay such awards in a form other than cash, then the fair market value of such consideration shall be determined by the administrator in good faith.
The fair value of awards granted was determined using the Black-Scholes pricing model and the following weighted-average assumptions in the table below as of the grant date. Expected volatility is based on the historic volatility of our guideline companies, which we believe best represent our company.

Note 17 — Fair Value Measurement
The Company used the following methods and significant assumptions to estimate fair value:
Contingent Consideration:
The fair values for earnouts payable are determined by using a discounted cash flow (“DCF”) approach with unobservable inputs and is classified as a Level 3 liability in the fair value hierarchy. The Company’s assessment of the significance of particular inputs to these fair value measurements requires judgment and considers factors specific to each asset or liability.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, are summarized below:

The valuation techniques used to determine the fair value of the contingent consideration as of December 31, 2020 included a combination of discounted cash flow, Black-Scholes-Merton model, and Monte Carlo simulation. The significant unobservable inputs used in the calculation of fair value include the discount rate, volatility, and credit spreads. The discount rates range from 2.9% to 18.8%, the volatility ranges from 15.3% to 80.2%, and the credit spreads range from 5.2% to 6.6%.
Note 18 — Commitments and Contingencies
PPP Loan Forgiveness and Indemnification Assets
As part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act of 2020 (“CARES Act”), certain companies were eligible to receive a Paycheck Protection Program (“PPP”) Loan, which is forgivable under the CARES Act as long as the loan proceeds are used for specific purposes. As disclosed in Note 3, the Company acquired certain businesses which had PPP Loan balances outstanding at the time of acquisition, and thus assumed the applicable PPP Loans. As part of these acquisitions, the Company agreed to take all actions reasonably required to pursue forgiveness of the loans in accordance with the CARES Act. In the event the Assumed PPP Loans are not approved for forgiveness by the U.S. Small Business Administration (“SBA”), the Company has the contractual right to require repayment from the former owners of the acquired businesses that received such loans. As of each acquisition date, an amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the Assumed PPP Loans was disbursed to an escrow account to be held until such time that the SBA determines whether the Assumed PPP Loans will be forgiven or not. In such case that the loan is forgiven by the SBA, the funds held in escrow will be distributed to the respective former owners of the applicable acquired business. In such case that the loan is not forgiven, the funds held in escrow will be distributed to the Company within 10 days of notice of the SBA’s decision not to forgive the Assumed PPP Loan. The term of the contractual guarantee from the sellers is from the date of acquisition until the date of the SBA’s forgiveness decision. The ultimate date of the SBA’s forgiveness decision is not known or knowable as of the date of the financial statements, but is reasonably expected to occur in fiscal 2021.
As a result of this contractual right to reimbursement, the Company is indemnified for the principal balance of the Assumed PPP Loans, either through forgiveness from the SBA or through reimbursement from the sellers. As such, the Company has recorded an indemnification asset equal to the principal balance of the PPP Loans assumed.
The total indemnification assets are recorded as other assets on the Company’s balance sheet as of December 31, 2020 in the amount of $991 as an offset to the Assumed PPP Loans acquired which are held at the following consolidated subsidiaries:
 
 
Mark Two — $473 PPP Loan received on April 17, 2020.
 
 
Dahlquist — $518 PPP loan received on April 21, 2020.
Litigation
The Company is subject to various claims and lawsuits that arise in the ordinary course of business. It is the opinion of management that the disposition or ultimate resolution of such claims and lawsuits will not have a material effect on the consolidated financial position of the Company.
 
F-94

Additionally, the Company is a defendant in a hybrid collective/class action complaint filed by one of its former employees for alleged violations of the Fair Labor Standards Act and Wisconsin wage and hour law. Management notes that at this stage in the proceedings, no opinion as to the probable outcome can be offered. The parties have agreed to engage in settlement discussions and at this time an estimate of the settlement is unknown.
Note 19—Segment Reporting
Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing operating performance. In consideration of Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 280, “
Segment Reporting
,” we are not organized around specific services or geographic regions. Our chief operating decision maker uses consolidated financial information to evaluate our performance, which is the same basis upon which the results and performance of the Company are communicated to the Board of Directors. The chief operating decision maker bases all significant decisions regarding the allocation of our resources on a consolidated basis. Based on the information described above and in accordance with the applicable literature, management has concluded that we are organized and operate as one operating and reportable segment.

Incodema, Inc. and NewChem, Inc.
Notes to Combined Financial Statements
June 30, 2020 and 2019
Note 1 — Nature of Business
Incodema, Inc. (Incodema) began operations in 2001 and is a prototype and short run sheet metal stamping provider which produces high quality items as sheet metal stampings, intricate metal formings, short run production stamping, laser cutting, and photo chemical machining (PCM).
NewChem, Inc. (NewChem) began operations after acquiring the assets of another entity on September 7, 2011. NewChem is a photochemical milling company located in Newark, NY. The process involves coating material specified with a light sensitive polymer, imaging with a photo tool using UV light, developing and then chemically etching.
Incodema and NewChem are collectively referred to as the “Company” throughout the combined financial statements.
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited combined financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Article 10 of Regulation
S-X.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included and are of a normal recurring nature. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
The unaudited combined interim financial statements and footnotes should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019.
Principles of Combination
The accompanying combined financial statements include the accounts of Incodema and NewChem, which are under common ownership. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination.
Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of the accompanying financial statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying amount reported in the balance sheet for cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the
short-term
nature of these investments.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions and attempts to limit its amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. However, at various times during the period, the Company’s cash balances exceeded the federally insured limits.
 
F-101

Incodema, Inc. and NewChem, Inc.
Notes to Combined Financial Statements
June 30, 2020 and 2019
 
Accounts Receivable
The Company’s accounts receivable and unsecured customer obligations due under normal trade terms ordinarily requiring payment within (30) days from the invoice date. The company often has receivables paid net ninety (90) days for both automotive and aerospace industries. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to the customer. The company does not accrue interest on accounts receivable. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, management believed that all accounts receivable would be collected and as such did not record an allowance.
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value (NRV), with NRV based on selling price in the ordinary course of business, less costs of completion, disposal, and and transportation. Cost are determined on a
first-in,
first-out
(FIFO) method.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Both
straight-line
and accelerated methods are used for computing depreciation and amortization. Assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The cost of leasehold improvements is depreciated over the lesser of the length of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred.
Goodwill
The recorded amounts of goodwill from prior business combinations are based on management’s best estimates of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather is assessed at least on an annual basis for impairment.
No impairment charge was recognized during the
six-months
ended June 30, 2020 and 2019.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan
Compensation expense is recognized for the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) equal to the average fair value of shares committed to be released for allocation to participant accounts. Any difference between the average fair value of shares committed to be released for allocation and the ESOP’s original acquisition cost is charged or credited to stockholders’ equity (additional
paid-in
capital). The cost of unallocated ESOP shares (shares not yet released for allocation) is reflected as a reduction of stockholders’ equity.
Revenue and Cost Recognition
The Company offers precision manufacturing and finishing services ranging from prototype through
high-volume
production, including internal sheet metal cutting and forming solutions, chemical etching, and medical device production for customers in the aerospace and defense, electronics, medical, automotive, and various other industries. The parts are shipped upon receipt of purchase orders and completion of the manufacturing process to customers who are located primarily in the United States.
During the six months ending June 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company recognized revenue from contracts with customers of $9,954,911 and $7,562,253, respectively. All revenue was recognized at a point in time. The Company did not recognize any contract assets or liabilities.

Incodema, Inc. and NewChem, Inc.
Notes to Combined Financial Statements
June 30, 2020 and 2019
 
Timing of Satisfaction
Contract terms do not include cancellation provisions that would result in an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, and, as a result, revenue is recognized at a point in time.
The Company satisfies its performance obligations as goods are produced or goods are delivered.
Parts are typically shipped “FOB Shipping Point” based on the purchase order. For parts shipped as FOB Destination, ownership of goods in transit remains with the Company, and the Company bears the associated risks (e.g., loss, damage, or delay). In other cases, the customer will take delivery directly from the Company’s inventory (“FOB Shipping Point”), at which point ownership and the associated risk pass to the customer.
Contracts with customers usually contain only one performance obligation that is satisfied at point in time. Contracts recognized at a point in time have no satisfied performance obligations that would result in contract assets other than trade accounts receivable.
Determining the Transaction Price
The transaction price of a contract is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. Transaction prices do not include amounts collected on behalf of third parties (e.g., sales taxes).
To determine the transaction price of a contract, the Company considers its customary business practices and the terms of the contract. For the purpose of determining transaction prices, the Company assumes that the goods or services will be transferred to the customer as promised in accordance with existing contracts and that the contracts will not be canceled, renewed, or modified. All of the Company’s contracts with customers have fixed transaction prices that are denominated in U.S. dollars and payable in cash.
Significant Payment Terms
Payment for goods and services sold by the Company is typically due within 30 days after an invoice is sent to the customer.
Nature of Promises to Transfer
In most cases, goods that the Company contracts to transfer to customers are manufactured by the Company for sale. In no case does the Company act as an agent (i.e., the Company does not provide a service of arranging for another party to transfer goods or services to the customer).
Shipping and Handling
With respect to sales of goods shipped FOB Shipping Point, the Company performs shipping and handling activities after its customers obtain control of the goods in some cases. The Company’s policy is to account for shipping and handling as activities to fulfill its promise to transfer the good (i.e., shipping and handling activities are expensed). With respect to sales of parts that are shipped “FOB Shipping Point,” the Company recognizes revenue before it performs shipping and handling activities, and the costs are accrued at that time.
Income Taxes
Pursuant to provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company has elected to be taxed as an S corporation. Generally, the income of an S corporation is not subject to federal income tax at the corporate level,
 
F-103

Incodema, Inc. and NewChem, Inc.
Notes to Combined Financial Statements
June 30, 2020 and 2019
 
but rather the stockholders are required to include a
pro-rata
share of the corporation’s taxable income or loss in their personal income tax returns, irrespective of whether dividends have been paid. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Credit Risk, Major Customers, and Suppliers
In 2020 and 2019, sales to one customer comprised of 31% and 6% of total Company revenues, respectively. Management notes that sales to specific customers tend to be cyclical and customer concentrations frequently shift. In 2020 and 2019, outstanding receivables to one customer comprised of 36% and 16%, respectively.
In 2020 and 2019, purchases from a supplier comprised of 8% and 7% of total Company revenues, respectively. Management toes that purchases from specific customers could cause the Company to experience delays and reduce efficiencies in operations if supplier were to cease supplying services to the Company. In 2020 and 2019, outstanding payables to one customer comprised of 7% and 21%, respectively.
Upcoming Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU
2016-02,
Leases
, which will supersede the current lease requirements in ASC 840. The ASU requires lessees to recognize a
right-to-use
asset and related lease liability for all leases, with a limited exception for
short-term
leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of operations. Currently, leases are classified as either capital or operating, with only capital leases recognized on the balance sheet. The reporting of
lease-related
expenses in the statements of operations and cash flows will be generally consistent with the current guidance. The new lease guidance will be effective for the Company’s year ending December 31, 2022 and will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method to either the beginning of the earliest period presented or the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company is still evaluating which method it will apply. The new lease standard is expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s financial statements as a result of the Company’s operating leases, as disclosed in Note 10, that will be reported on the balance sheet at adoption. Upon adoption, the Company will recognize a lease liability and corresponding
right-to-use
asset based on the present value of the minimum lease payments. The effects on the results of operations are not expected to be significant as recognition and measurement of expenses and cash flows for leases will be substantially the same under the new standard.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU)
No. 2016-13,
Financial Instruments
— Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial
Instruments
. The ASU includes changes to the accounting and measurement of financial assets including the Company’s accounts receivable and
held-to-maturity
debt securities by requiring the Company to recognize an allowance for all expected losses over the life of the financial asset at origination. This is different from the current practice where an allowance is not recognized until the losses are considered probable. The ASU also changes the way credit losses are recognized for
available-for-sale
debt securities. Credit losses are recognized
 
F-104

Incodema, Inc. and NewChem, Inc.
Notes to Combined Financial Statements
June 30, 2020 and 2019
 
through the recording of an allowance rather than as a
write-down
of the carrying value. The new guidance will be effective for the Company’s year ending December 31, 2021. Upon adoption, the ASU will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method to the beginning of the earliest period presented. The Company does not believe the adoption of the new standard will have a significant effect on the combined financial statements.
Subsequent Events
The financial statements and related disclosures include evaluation of events up through and including July 28, 2021, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.

Note 5 — Paycheck Protection Program Loan
During the six months ended June 30, 2020, the Company received a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan in the amount of $284,600. The PPP loan program was created under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and is administered by the Small Business Administration (SBA). Under the terms of this program, the loan may be fully or partially forgiven if the loan proceeds are spent on qualifying expenses and if staffing level and salary maintenance requirements were met. The Company may use the funds

on qualifying expenses over a covered period of up to 24 weeks. At the conclusion of the covered period, any balance that is not forgiven by the SBA would be repaid within two years from issuance date with interest accruing at a rate of 1 percent, with monthly payments of principal and interest beginning ten months after the conclusion of the covered period. Based on the loan amount, irrespective of any potential forgiveness that may be granted in the future, monthly principal payments would be approximately $20,300 during the repayment period.
Note 6 — Line of Credit
Under a line of credit agreement with a bank, the Company has available borrowings of $2,000,000 and matured on June 30, 2019. The line of credit was not renewed.

Note 12 — Retirement Plans
The Company adopted a 401(K) safe harbor plan for employees in October 2002. Employees are eligible to participate after successful completion of their
ninety-day
probationary period, if applicable, attaining 21 years of age and a minimum of 1,000 hours of service. Vesting is immediate. The Company matches 100% of each dollar of employee contribution up to 3% of annual compensation. For the fourth and fifth percent an employee defers, the Company matches 50%. The maximum match per year is 4% of the employees’
W-2
compensation. Contribution expense for the six months ending June 30, 2020 and 2019 was $59,645 and $57,790, respectively.
Note 13 — Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
Incodema sponsors a leveraged employee stock ownership plan (the “ESOP” or the “Plan”) that was established January 1, 2017. Employees are eligible to participate in the plan upon attainment of age 21 and completion of
one-thousand
(1,000) hours of service in an eligibility computation period. All Employees employed by the Company on January 1, 2017, were immediately eligible to participate in the Plan. The purpose of the Plan is to provide retirement benefits for eligible employees. The Plan is intended to qualify as an employee stock ownership plan under Sections 401(a) and 4975(3)(7) of the Code as well as Section 407(d)(6) of ERISA.
The ESOP originally purchased 43,011 shares of Incodema common stock using proceeds of a $4,000,000 loan issued from Incodema. This ESOP loan bears interest at 3.04 percent per annum, and matures on April 30, 2038. The loan payments are funded through contributions to the Plan made by Incodema.

In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the loan between Incodema and the ESOP is not presented as an asset within the combined balance sheet but rather a contra equity account described as “unearned ESOP shares.” The shares held by the ESOP are allocated to participant accounts, as the repayments are made by the Plan. Shares are released based on debt service paid and allocated to active participants based on a formula of the participants’ pro rata shares of eligible compensation. The unearned ESOP shares account reported as contra equity is reduced as compensation expense is recognized under the Plan.
Upon retirement, the value of the participant’s accrued benefit payable as recalculated as of the most recent valuation date prior to the date of distribution. If the participant chooses to receive their benefit in installment payments, the accrued benefit payable will be redetermined on each subsequent valuation date until there is a complete distribution.

Note 14 — Stock Appreciation Reward Plan
The Company has established a stock appreciation reward program (the “Program”) that is offered to certain members of management. Under the Program, units are issued at the discretion of the Company. Each unit is valued at the intrinsic value, which is the difference between (i) $66.00 and (ii) the price of the Company’s stock on the reporting date. The units fully vest as of the determination date. The determination date is defined by the agreement as the first to occur of (a) December 31, 2026 or (b) a change in control has occurred. An obligation and compensation expense would be recorded when the occurrence of the determination date is deemed to be probable. Compensation expense of $456,914 has been recorded in 2019. As of June 30, 2020 and June 30, 2019, there were 6,000 stock appreciation reward units granted and assigned to certain members of management. As of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no stock appreciation rewards available to be granted.
Note 15 — Warrants
On May 1, 2018, a warrant to purchase 6,000 shares of the Incodema Inc.’s common stock was issued to the majority stockholder. The warrants have an exercise price of $79 per share. The obligations under the warrant are subordinated to certain bank obligations (see Note 7) as provided by a the substantiated agreement between the bank the majority stockholder. The obligations of the exercise period take effect at the
5-year
period commencing on the earlier of the (i) sixth anniversary of the date of the warrants were granted or (ii) repayment in full of the note payable to the bank (see Note 7). The warrant term is the earlier of 11 years or contingent on repayment in full of the bank loan referenced above. As further discussed in Note 16 the warrants were cancelled in July 2020.
Note 16 — Subsequent Events
On July 23, 2020, the Company entered into a business combination event in which 100 percent of the ownership interest of Incodema, Inc. and NewChem, Inc. was sold to a new majority member for a total consideration of approximately $47,100,000.

In conjunction with the sale, the Incodema ESOP received cash for all allocated and unallocated shares and was converted to a 401K plan, the Stock Appreciation Rights (SAR) were settled for an amount materially consistent with the liability recorded at June 30, 2020. In addition, the warrants described in Note 15 were cancelled.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease caused by a new coronavirus pandemic. First identified in late 2019 and now known as
COVID-19,
the outbreak has impacted millions of individuals worldwide. As of the date of issuance of the financial statements, the Company’s operations have not been significantly impacted, but the Company continues to monitor the situation. No impairments were recorded as of the balance sheet date, as no triggering events or changes in circumstances had occurred as of May 27, 2021; however, due to significant uncertainty surrounding the situation, management’s judgment regarding this could change in the future. In addition, while the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition were not significantly impacted, the extent of any future impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

Auditor’s responsibility
 
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined financial statements are free from material misstatement.
 
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the combined financial statements, whether due to fraud or error.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
 
Opinion
 
In our opinion, the combined financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Incodema, Inc. and NewChem, Inc. as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Incodema, Inc. and NewChem, Inc.
Notes to Combined Financial Statements
December 31, 2019 and 2018
Note 1 — Nature of Business
Incodema, Inc. (Incodema) began operations in 2001 and is a prototype and short run sheet metal stamping provider which produces high quality items as sheet metal stampings, intricate metal formings, short run production stamping, laser cutting, and photo chemical machining (PCM).
NewChem, Inc. (NewChem) began operations after acquiring the assets of another entity on September 7, 2011. NewChem is a photochemical milling company located in Newark, NY. The process involves coating material specified with a light sensitive polymer, imaging with a photo tool using UV light, developing and then chemically etching.
Incodema and NewChem are collectively referred to as the “Company” throughout the combined financial statements.
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The combined financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Principles of Combination
The accompanying combined financial statements include the accounts of Incodema and NewChem, which are under common ownership. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in combination.
Cash Equivalents
For the purpose of the accompanying financial statements, the Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The carrying amount reported in the balance sheets for cash and cash equivalents approximates fair value due to the
short-term
nature of these investments.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions and attempts to limit its amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. However, at various times during the period, the Company’s cash balances exceeded the federally insured limits.
Accounts Receivable
The Company’s accounts receivable and unsecured customer obligations due under normal trade terms ordinarily requiring payment within (30) days from the invoice date. The company often has receivables paid net ninety (90) days for both automotive and aerospace industries. Accounts receivable are stated at the amount billed to the customer. The company does not accrue interest on accounts receivable. As of December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, management believed that all accounts receivable would be collected and as such did not record an allowance.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements
December 31, 2019 and 2018
 
Inventory
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value (NRV), with NRV based on selling price in the ordinary course of business, less costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. Cost are determined on a
first-in,
first-out
(FIFO) method.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Both
straight-line
and accelerated methods are used for computing depreciation and amortization. Assets are depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The cost of leasehold improvements is depreciated over the lesser of the length of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets. Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred.
Goodwill
The recorded amounts of goodwill from prior business combinations are based on management’s best estimates of the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at the date of acquisition. Goodwill is not amortized, but rather is assessed at least on an annual basis for impairment.
No impairment charge was recognized during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan
Compensation expense is recognized for the Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) equal to the average fair value of shares committed to be released for allocation to participant accounts. Any difference between the average fair value of shares committed to be released for allocation and the ESOP’s original acquisition cost is charged or credited to stockholders’ equity (additional
paid-in
capital). The cost of unallocated ESOP shares (shares not yet released for allocation) is reflected as a reduction of stockholders’ equity.
Revenue and Cost Recognition
The Company offers precision manufacturing and finishing services ranging from prototype through
high-volume
production, including internal sheet metal cutting and forming solutions, chemical etching, and medical device production for customers in the aerospace and defense, electronics, medical, automotive, and various other industries. The parts are shipped upon receipt of purchase orders and completion of the manufacturing process to customers who are located primarily in the United States.
During the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recognized revenue from contracts with customers of $15,135,876 and $12,694,259, respectively. All revenue was recognized at a point in time. The Company did not recognize any contract assets or liabilities.
Timing of Satisfaction
Contract terms do not include cancellation provisions that would result in an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, and, as a result, revenue is recognized at a point in time.
The Company satisfies its performance obligations as goods are produced or goods are delivered.

Notes to Combined Financial Statements
December 31, 2019 and 2018
 
Parts are typically shipped “FOB Shipping Point” based on the purchase order. For parts shipped as FOB Destination, ownership of goods in transit remains with the Company, and the Company bears the associated risks (e.g., loss, damage, or delay). In other cases, the customer will take delivery directly from the Company’s inventory (FOB Shipping Point), at which point ownership and the associated risk pass to the customer.
Contracts with customers usually contain only one performance obligation that is satisfied at a point in time. Contracts recognized at a point in time have no satisfied performance obligations that would result in contract assets other than trade accounts receivable.
Determining the Transaction Price
The transaction price of a contract is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. Transaction prices do not include amounts collected on behalf of third parties (e.g., sales taxes).
To determine the transaction price of a contract, the Company considers its customary business practices and the terms of the contract. For the purpose of determining transaction prices, the Company assumes that the goods or services will be transferred to the customer as promised in accordance with existing contracts and that the contracts will not be canceled, renewed, or modified. All of the Company’s contracts with customers have fixed transaction prices that are denominated in U.S. dollars and payable in cash.
Significant Payment Terms
Payment for goods and services sold by the Company is typically due within 30 days after an invoice is sent to the customer.
Nature of Promises to Transfer
In most cases, goods that the Company contracts to transfer to customers are manufactured by the Company for sale. In no case does the Company act as an agent (i.e., the Company does not provide a service of arranging for another party to transfer goods or services to the customer).
Shipping and Handling
With respect to sales of goods shipped FOB Shipping Point, the Company performs shipping and handling activities after its customers obtain control of the goods in some cases. The Company’s policy is to account for shipping and handling as activities to fulfill its promise to transfer the good (i.e., shipping and handling activities are expensed). With respect to sales of parts that are shipped “FOB Shipping Point,” the Company recognizes revenue before it performs shipping and handling activities, and the costs are accrued at that time.
Income Taxes
Pursuant to provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company has elected to be taxed as an S corporation. Generally, the income of an S corporation is not subject to federal income tax at the corporate level, but rather the stockholders are required to include a
pro-rata
share of the corporation’s taxable income or loss in their personal income tax returns, irrespective of whether dividends have been paid. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements.

Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Credit Risk, Major Customers, and Suppliers
In 2019 and 2018, sales to one customer comprised of 22 and 17 percent of total Company revenue, respectively. Management notes that sales to specific customers tend to be cyclical and customer concentrations frequently shift. In 2019 and 2018, outstanding receivables to one customer comprised of 17 and 12 percent, respectively.
In 2019 and 2018, purchases from a supplier comprised of 6 and 5 percent of total Company revenue, respectively. Management notes that purchases from specific vendors could cause the Company to experience delays and reduce efficiencies in operations if supplier were to cease supplying services to the Company. In 2019 and 2018, outstanding payables to one customer comprised of 13 and 12 percent, respectively.
Upcoming Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU
2016-02,
Leases
, which will supersede the current lease requirements in ASC 840. The ASU requires lessees to recognize a
right-to-use
asset and related lease liability for all leases, with a limited exception for
short-term
leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of operations. Currently, leases are classified as either capital or operating, with only capital leases recognized on the balance sheet. The reporting of
lease-related
expenses in the statements of operations and cash flows will be generally consistent with the current guidance. The new lease guidance will be effective for the Company’s year ending December 31, 2022 and will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method to either the beginning of the earliest period presented or the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company is still evaluating which method it will apply. The new lease standard is expected to have a significant effect on the Company’s financial statements as a result of the Company’s operating leases, as disclosed in Note 11, that will be reported on the balance sheet at adoption. Upon adoption, the Company will recognize a lease liability and corresponding
right-to-use
asset based on the present value of the minimum lease payments. The effects on the results of operations are not expected to be significant as recognition and measurement of expenses and cash flows for leases will be substantially the same under the new standard.
In June 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU)
No. 2016-13,
Financial Instruments
— Credit Losses: Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments
. The ASU includes changes to the accounting and measurement of financial assets including the Company’s accounts receivable and
held-to-maturity
debt securities by requiring the Company to recognize an allowance for all expected losses over the life of the financial asset at origination. This is different from the current practice where an allowance is not recognized until the losses are considered probable. The ASU also changes the way credit losses are recognized for
available-for-sale
debt securities. Credit losses are recognized through the recording of an allowance rather than as a
write-down
of the carrying value. The new guidance will be effective for the Company’s year ending December 31, 2021. Upon adoption, the ASU will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method to the beginning of the earliest period presented. The Company does not believe the adoption of the new standard will have a significant effect on the combined financial statements.

Subsequent Events
The financial statements and related disclosures include evaluation of events up through and including July 28, 2021, which is the date the financial statements were available to be issued.
Note 3 — Adoption of New Accounting Standard
As of January 1, 2019, the Company adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Update (ASU)
No. 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
. The ASU is based on the principle that revenue is recognized to depict the transfer of goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The ASU also requires additional disclosure about the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments and assets recognized from costs incurred to obtain or fulfill a contract. The Company adopted the new standard using the modified retrospective method to all contracts effective January 1, 2019 and is using a portfolio approach to group contracts with similar characteristics. Modified retrospective adoption requires entities to apply the standard retrospectively to the most current period presented in the financial statements, requiring the cumulative effect of the retrospective application as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings at the date of initial application. Prior periods have not been adjusted. No
cumulative-effect
adjustment in net assets was recorded as the adoption of ASU did not significantly impact the Company’s reported historical revenue. There was not a significant impact on the amount of revenue recognized from contracts with customers for the year ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 as a result of adopting the new guidance.

Note 12 — Retirement Plans
The Company adopted a 401(K) safe harbor plan for employees in October 2002. Employees are eligible to participate after successful completion of their
ninety-day
probationary period, if applicable, attaining 21 years of age and a minimum of 1,000 hours of service. Vesting is immediate. The Company matches 100 percent of each dollar of employee contribution up to 3 percent of annual compensation. For the fourth and fifth percent an employee defers, the Company matches 50 percent. The maximum match per year is 4 percent of the employees’
W-2
compensation. Contribution expense for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $115,212 and $101,705, respectively.
Note 13 — Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP)
Incodema sponsors a leveraged employee stock ownership plan (the “ESOP” or the “Plan”) that was established January 1, 2017. Employees are eligible to participate in the plan upon attainment of age 21 and completion of
one-thousand
(1,000) hours of service in an eligibility computation period. All Employees employed by the Company on January 1, 2017, were immediately eligible to participate in the Plan. The purpose of the Plan is to provide retirement benefits for eligible employees. The Plan is intended to qualify as an employee stock ownership plan under Sections 401(a) and 4975(3)(7) of the Code as well as Section 407(d)(6) of ERISA.
The ESOP originally purchased 43,011 shares of Incodema comment stock using proceeds of a $4,000,000 loan issued from Incodema. This ESOP loan bears interest at 3.04 percent per annum, and matures on April 30, 2038. The loan payments are funded through contributions to the Plan made by Incodema.
In accordance with applicable accounting standards, the loan between Incodema and the ESOP is not presented as an asset within the combined balance sheet but rather a contra equity account described as “unearned ESOP shares.” The shares held by the ESOP are allocated to participant accounts, as the repayments are made by the Plan. Shares are released based on debt service paid and allocated to active participants based on a formula of the participants’ pro rata shares of eligible compensation. The unearned ESOP shares account reported as contra equity is reduced as compensation expense is recognized under the Plan. For the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, the Company accrued and made contributions to the ESOP of $587,995 and $267,240, respectively. The Company reported related compensation expense of $1,754,544 and $488,116 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. The amounts were paid by the end of 2019 and 2018, respectively and contribution amount was determined based on eligible employees’ compensation.
Upon retirement, the value of the participant’s accrued benefit payable as recalculated as of the most recent valuation date prior to the date of distribution. If the participant chooses to receive their benefit in installment payments, the accrued benefit payable will be redetermined on each subsequent valuation date until there is a complete distribution.

Note 14 — Stock Appreciation Reward Plan
The Company has established a stock appreciation reward program (the “SARs Program”) that is offered to certain members of management of Incodema, Inc. Under the SARs Program, units are issued at the discretion of the Company. Each unit is valued at the intrinsic value, which is the difference between (i) $66.00 (Exercise Price) and (ii) the fair value of the Company’s stock on the reporting date. The units fully vest upon the grant date. The determination date is defined by the agreement as the first to occur of (a) December 31, 2026 or (b) a change in control has occurred. An obligation and compensation expense is recorded as of the reporting date based on the fair value of the of the award. As such, compensation expense has been recorded in 2019 and 2018 in the amounts of $1,031,905 and $118,077, respectively. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, there were 6,000 stock appreciation reward units granted and assigned to certain members of management. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no stock appreciation rewards available to be granted.
Note 15 — Warrants
On May 1, 2018, a warrant to purchase 6,000 shares of the Incodema Inc.’s common stock was issued to the majority stockholder. The warrants have an exercise price of $79 per share. The obligations under the warrant are subordinated to certain bank obligations (see Note 8) as provided by a the subordinated agreement between the bank the majority stockholder. The obligations of the exercise period take effect at the
5-year
period commencing on the earlier of the (i) sixth anniversary of the date of the warrants were granted or (ii) repayment in full of the note payable to the bank (see Note 8). The warrant term is the earlier of 11 years or contingent on repayment in full of the bank loan referenced above. As further discussed in Note 16 the warrants were cancelled in July 2020.
Note 16 — Subsequent Events
On July 26, 2020, the Company entered into a business combination event in which 100 percent of ownership interest of Incodema, Inc. and NewChem, Inc. was sold to a new majority member for a total consideration of approximately $47,100,000. Prior to the transaction, Incodema, Inc. and NewChem, Inc. were converted to limited liability companies as part of a reorganization event.
In conjunction with the sale, the Incodema ESOP received cash for all allocated and unallocated shares and was converted to a 401K plan, the SARs were settled for an amount materially consistent with the liability recorded at December 31, 2019. In addition, the warrants described in Note 15 were cancelled.
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease caused by a new coronavirus pandemic. First identified in late 2019 and now known as
COVID-19,
the outbreak has impacted millions of individuals worldwide. As of the date of issuance of the financial statements, the Company’s operations have not been significantly impacted, but the Company continues to monitor the situation. No impairments were recorded as of the balance sheet date, as no triggering events or changes in circumstances had occurred as of May 27, 2021; however, due to significant uncertainty surrounding the situation, management’s judgment regarding this could change in the future. In addition, while the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition were not significantly impacted, the extent of any future impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
Board of Directors
Majestic Metals, LLC
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Majestic Metals, LLC, which comprise the balance sheets as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and the related statements of operations, members’ equity, and cash flows for the period from January 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020, and the year ended December 31, 2019 and the related notes to the financial statements.
Management’s responsibility for the financial statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Majestic Metals, LLC as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from January 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020 and for the year ended December 31, 2019 in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Majestic Metals, LLC
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019
Note 1 — Nature of Business
Majestic Metals, LLC a Colorado Limited Liability Company (the “Company”), is a subcontract manufacturer of sheet metal components and assemblies. The Company provides a wide range of manufacturing processes including final finishing and assembly to a diverse group of industries including medical electronics, computer electronics, lighting, and industrial applications.
The financial statements herein include the period from January 1, 2020 to September 30, 2020 (hereinafter referred to as “the period ended September 30, 2020”) and the year ending December 31, 2019.
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (U.S. GAAP). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease caused by a new coronavirus pandemic. First identified in late 2019 and now known as
COVID-19,
the outbreak has impacted millions of individuals worldwide. As of the date of issuance of the financial statements, the Company’s operations have not been significantly impacted, but the Company continues to monitor the situation. No impairments were recorded as of the balance sheet date, as no triggering events or changes in circumstances had occurred as of September 30, 2020; however, due to significant uncertainty surrounding the situation, management’s judgment regarding this could change in the future. In addition, while the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition were not significantly impacted, the extent of any future impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Accounts Receivable
The Company grants credit to its customers in the ordinary course of business. The allowance for doubtful accounts is based on management’s assessment of the collectability of specific customer accounts and includes consideration of the credit worthiness and financial condition of those specific customers. The Company records an allowance to reduce the specific receivables to the amount that is reasonably believed to be collectible. The Company also records an allowance for all other trade receivables based on multiple factors including historical experience with bad debts, the general economic environment, the financial condition of the Company’s distributions channels, and the aging of such receivables. Amounts are considered past due based upon contractual terms. Accounts are written off when they are deemed uncollectible based on management’s judgment. The Company does not charge interest on past due receivables. The allowance for doubtful accounts was $50,000 as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. There was no bad debt expense for the period ended September 30, 2020 and year ended December 31, 2019.
Concentration Risks
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high credit quality financial institutions and attempts to
 
F-131

Majestic Metals, LLC
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019
 
limit its amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. However, at various times during the year, the Company’s cash balances exceeded the federally insured limits. The FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation) insures cash deposits up to $250,000.
The majority of the Company’s sales and accounts receivable are with local and regional manufacturing customers. Sales to two major customers represent 32% and 33% of total sales for the period ended September 30, 2020 and year ended December 31, 2019, respectively. Accounts receivable from these major customers represents 31% and 34% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectfully.
Inventory
Inventory consists of purchased parts and
work-in-process,
and are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Costs are determined on the
first-in,
first-out
(FIFO) method. The Company evaluates inventory for
slow-moving
and obsolete items and records an allowance as necessary. Based on management’s analysis, no allowance for
slow-moving
and obsolete inventory was deemed necessary at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the
straight-line
method for computer equipment and software, office furniture and equipment applied to individual property items based on estimated useful lives. Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred. The cost of leasehold improvements is depreciated over the lesser of the length of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Revenue Recognition
The Company offers precision manufacturing and finishing services ranging from prototype through
high-volume
production, including internal sheet metal cutting and forming solutions, chemical etching, and medical device production for customers in the aerospace and defense, electronics, medical, automotive, and various other industries. The parts are shipped upon receipt of purchase orders and completion of the manufacturing process to customers who are located primarily in the United States.
During the period ended September 30, 2020 and the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company recognized revenue from contracts with customers of $17,233,964 and $25,733,700. The Company did not recognize any contract assets or liabilities.
Timing of Satisfaction
Contract terms do not include cancellation provisions that would result in an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, and, as a result, revenue is recognized at a point in time.
The Company satisfies its performance obligations once goods are produced and shipped.
Good associated with contracts are primarily shipped “FOB Shipping Point” based on the contractual terms. For contract terms shipped FOB Shipping Point, the customer will take title directly from the Company upon shipment, at which point ownership and the associated risk pass to the customer. For a small portion of contracts, contract terms are FOB Destination, where ownership of the goods in transit remains with the Company and the Company bears the associated risks (e.g., loss, damage, or delay) until it is delivered to the customer location.
 
F-132

Majestic Metals, LLC
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019
 
Contracts with customers contain only one performance obligation that is satisfied at a point in time based on contractual terms. Contracts recognized at a point in time have no satisfied performance obligations that would result in contract assets or liabilities.
Determining the Transaction Price
The transaction price of a contract is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. The Company does not collect sales tax on behalf of third parties, as the Company’s customer base is largely tax exempt. For a small portion of contracts where sales tax is applicable, the Company will accrue the related tax at the point the contract is completed.
To determine the transaction price of a contract, the Company considers its customary business practices and the terms of the contract. For the purpose of determining transaction prices, the Company assumes that the goods or services will be transferred to the customer as promised in accordance with existing contracts and that the contracts will not be canceled, renewed, or modified. All the Company’s contracts with customers have fixed transaction prices that are denominated in U.S. dollars and payable in cash.
Significant Payment Terms
Payment for goods and services sold by the Company is typically due within 30 days after an invoice is sent to the customer.
Nature of Promises to Transfer
In all cases, goods that the Company contracts to transfer to customers are manufactured by the Company for sale. In no case does the Company act as an agent (i.e., the Company does not provide a service of arranging for another party to transfer goods or services to the customer).
Shipping and Handling
With respect to contracts with shipped FOB Shipping Point terms, the Company may perform shipping and handling activities after its customers obtain control of the goods. The Company’s policy is to account for shipping and handling as activities to fulfill its promise to transfer the good (i.e., shipping and handling activities are expensed) and included in cost of sales.
Warranties
The Company offers a
30-day
general warranty and no extended warranty. The Company will either scrap the returned material and issue customer credits for the original sales amount or perform repairs over defective products. Repairs and scrap costs are expensed as products are received. The Company does not have a return policy.
Income Taxes
The Company is treated as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. Consequently, federal income taxes are not payable or provided for by the Company. Members are taxed individually on their
pro-rata
ownership share of the Company’s earnings. The Company’s net income or loss is allocated among the members in accordance with the Company’s operating agreement.
 
F-133

Majestic Metals, LLC
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019
 
No federal income tax provision has been included in the financial statements since income or loss of the Company is required to be reported by the respective members on their income tax returns. The Company is subject to certain state and local income and franchise taxes, which are included in the financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standard Update (ASU)
2016-02,
Leases
, which will supersede the current lease requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 840. The ASU requires lessees to recognize a
right-to-use
asset and related lease liability for all leases, with a limited exception for
short-term
leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of operations. Currently, leases are classified as either capital or operating, with only capital leases recognized on the balance sheet. The reporting of
lease-related
expenses in the statements of operations and cash flows will be generally consistent with the current guidance. On June 3, 2020, the FASB issued ASU
2020-05,
which amended the effective date ASU
2016-02
to give immediate relief to certain entities as a result of the widespread adverse economic effects and business disruptions caused by the coronavirus disease 2019
(COVID-19)
pandemic. The new lease guidance will be effective for the Company’s year ending December 31, 2022 and will be applied using a current period adjustment method to the beginning of the year of adoption. Upon adoption, the Company will recognize a lease liability and corresponding
right-to-use
asset based on the present value of the minimum lease payments. The effects on the results of operations are not expected to be significant, as recognition and measurement of expenses and cash flows for leases will be substantially the same under the new standard.

Note 9 — Accrued Retirement Benefit
In 2008, the Company entered into a supplemental retirement plan (SERP) with a key member of management. The SERP will pay the beneficiary over a period of 15 years, commencing in August of 2027.

Note 10 — Paycheck Protection Program
During the period ended September 30, 2020, the Company received a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan in the amount of $1,609,600. The PPP loan program was created under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and is administered by the Small Business Administration (SBA). Under the terms of this program, the loan may be fully or partially forgiven if the loan proceeds are spent on qualifying expenses and if staffing level and salary maintenance requirements were met. The Company may use the funds on qualifying expenses over a covered period of up to 24 weeks. At the conclusion of the covered period, any balance that is not forgiven by the SBA would be repaid within two years from issuance date with interest accruing at a rate of 1 percent, with monthly payments of principal and interest beginning ten months after the conclusion of the covered period. Based on the loan amount, irrespective of any potential forgiveness that may be granted in the future, monthly principal payments would be approximately $115,000 during the repayment period.
The balance of the PPP Loan matures as follows:
 
Period ending September 30
  
Amount
 
2021
   $ 804,800  
2022
     804,800  
  
 
 
 
Total
   $ 1,609,600  
  
 
 
 
Subsequent to September 30, 2020, the Company applied for and received notification of forgiveness of the entire loan balance from the SBA. The amount of the loan forgiven will be recorded as cancellation of debt income in the period subsequent to September 30, 2020.
Note 11 — Related Party Transactions

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
 
Board of Directors
Dahlquist Machine, Inc.
 
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Dahlquist Machine, Inc. (a Minnesota corporation), which comprise the balance sheet as of September 30, 2020, and the related statements of operations, stockholder’s equity, and cash flows for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, and the related notes to the financial statements.
 
Management’s responsibility for the financial statements
 
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
 
 
Auditor’s responsibility
 
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
 
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements.

Dahlquist Machine, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2020
Note 1 — Nature of Business
Dahlquist Machine, Inc. (the “Company”) a Minnesota corporation, is a precision machining company located in Ham Lake, Minnesota. The Company was founded in 1969 and specializes in
high-speed
machining of aluminum, light metals, and plastic parts for consumers across a wide variety of industries.
Note 2 — Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared on the basis of accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
COVID-19
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of a respiratory disease caused by a new coronavirus pandemic. First identified in late 2019 and now known as
COVID-19,
the outbreak has impacted millions of individuals worldwide. As of the date of issuance of the financial statements, the Company’s operations have not been significantly impacted, but the Company continues to monitor the situation. No impairments were recorded as of the balance sheet date, as no triggering events or changes in circumstances had occurred as of September 30, 2020. However, due to significant uncertainty surrounding the situation, management’s judgment regarding this could change in the future. In addition, while the Company’s results of operations, cash flows, and financial condition were not significantly impacted, the extent of any future impact cannot be reasonably estimated at this time.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its temporary cash investments with high credit quality financial institutions and attempts to limit its amount of credit exposure to any one financial institution. However, at various times during the period, the Company’s cash balances exceeded the federally insured limits. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had $5,390,918 on deposit with financial institutions in excess of the federally insured limits.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are stated at invoice cost. Based on management’s review of outstanding receivable balances and historical collection information, management’s best estimate is that all balances will be collected. Accordingly, the Company has not established an allowance for doubtful accounts.
 
F-143

Dahlquist Machine, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2020
 
Credit Risk and Major Customers
The majority of the Company’s sales and accounts receivable are with local and regional manufacturing customers. The Company grants credit to its customers during the normal course of business. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition and generally does not require collateral from its customers. Sales to two major customers represent 42% of total sales at September 30, 2020. Accounts receivable from these major customers represents 43% of total accounts receivable at September 30, 2020.
Inventory
Inventory consists of primarily finished goods from purchased parts and
work-in-process,
which are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value, as determined by the
first-in,
first-out
method. The Company evaluates inventory for
slow-moving
and obsolete items and records an allowance as necessary. Based on management’s analysis, an allowance for
slow-moving
and obsolete inventory was recorded in the amount of $226,657 as of September 30, 2020.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight line or accelerated method based on estimated useful lives. Costs of maintenance and repairs are charged to expense when incurred. The cost of leasehold improvements is depreciated over the lesser of the length of the related leases or the estimated useful lives of the assets.
Property and equipment are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that carrying amounts may not be recoverable.
Revenue and Cost Recognition
The Company is a precision machining company that specializes in short to
medium-run
quantities for high precision parts, focusing on machining aluminum, light metals, and plastic parts. The Company sells primarily to customers in the aerospace and defense, electronics, medical, and various other industries who are located primarily in the United States.
During the
nine-month
period ended September 30, 2020 the Company recognized revenue from contracts with customers of $6,043,145. The Company did not recognize any contract assets or liabilities. Accounts receivable at September 30, 2020 and January 1, 2020 was $1,204,535 and $861,959, respectively.
Timing of Satisfaction
Contract terms do not include cancellation provisions that would result in an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date, and, as a result, revenue is recognized at a point in time.
Contracts with customers usually contain only one performance obligation that is satisfied at a point in time. The timing of satisfaction is dictated by the contractual shipping terms agreed upon by both parties.
Parts are typically shipped “FOB Shipping Point” based on the purchase order. The Company satisfies its performance obligations as goods are prepared for shipment and isolated from inventory. Upon shipment, ownership of goods and the associated risk pass to the customer. For a small portion of contracts, shipping terms are “FOB Destination”, whereas the Company retains ownership of goods in transit and thus bears the associated risks (e.g., loss, damage, or delay) until the goods are delivered to the customer location.
 
F-144

Dahlquist Machine, Inc.
Notes to Financial Statements
September 30, 2020
 
Contracts recognized at a point in time have no satisfied performance obligations that would result in contract assets other than trade accounts receivable.
Determining the Transaction Price
The transaction price of a contract is the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring promised goods or services to a customer. Transaction prices do not include amounts collected on behalf of third parties (e.g., sales taxes).
To determine the transaction price of a contract, the Company considers its customary business practices and the terms of the contract. For the purpose of determining transaction prices, the Company assumes that the goods or services will be transferred to the customer as promised in accordance with existing contracts and that the contracts will not be cancelled, renewed, or modified. All of the Company’s contracts with customers have fixed transaction prices that are denominated in U.S. dollars and payable in cash.
Significant Payment Terms
Payment for goods and services sold by the Company is typically due within 30 days after an invoice is sent to the customer.
Nature of Promises to Transfer
In most cases, goods that the Company contracts to transfer to customers are manufactured by the Company for sale. In no case does the Company act as an agent (i.e., the Company does not provide a service of arranging for another party to transfer goods or services to the customer).
Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling activities are carried out either by the customer or arranged by the Company. The Company considers all shipping and handling costs as costs to fulfill the contract.
Income Taxes
Pursuant to provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company has elected to be taxed as an S corporation. Generally, the income of an S corporation is not subject to federal income tax at the corporate level, but rather the stockholders are required to include a
pro-rata
share of the corporation’s taxable income or loss in their personal income tax returns, irrespective of whether dividends have been paid. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements.
Upcoming Accounting Pronouncements
The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU
2016-02,
Leases
, which will supersede the current lease requirements in Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 840. The ASU requires lessees to recognize a
right-to-use
asset and related lease liability for all leases, with a limited exception for
short-term
leases. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of operations. Currently, leases are classified as either capital or operating, with only capital leases recognized on the balance sheet. The reporting of
lease-related
expenses in the statements of operations and cash flows will be generally consistent with the current guidance. The new lease

September 30, 2020
 
guidance will be effective for the Company’s year ending December 31, 2022 and will be applied using a modified retrospective transition method to either the beginning of the earliest period presented or the beginning of the year of adoption. Upon adoption, the Company will recognize a lease liability and corresponding
right-to-use
asset based on the present value of the minimum lease payments. The effects on the results of operations are not expected to be significant, as recognition and measurement of expenses and cash flows for leases will be substantially the same under the new standard.

Note 5 — Paycheck Protection Program Loan
During the
nine-month
period ended September 30, 2020, the Company received a Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) loan in the amount of $518,100. The PPP loan program was created under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act and is administered by the Small Business Administration (SBA). Under the terms of this program, the loan may be fully or partially forgiven if the loan proceeds are spent on qualifying expenses and if staffing level and salary maintenance requirements were met. The Company may use the funds on qualifying expenses over a covered period of up to 24 weeks. At the conclusion of the covered period, any balance that is not forgiven by the SBA would be repaid within two years from issuance date with interest accruing at a rate of 1 percent, with monthly payments of principal and interest beginning ten months after the conclusion of the covered period. Based on the loan amount, irrespective of any potential forgiveness that may be granted in the future, monthly principal payments would be approximately $29,200 during the repayment period.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, following the filing and effectiveness of this Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware, the Corporation shall not issue additional shares of Class C Common Stock.
The Preferred Stock and the Common Stock shall have the designations, rights, powers and preferences and the qualifications, restrictions and limitations thereof, if any, set forth below. The number of authorized shares of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock or Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the approval of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “
Board
of Directors
”) and by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority in voting power of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation entitled to vote generally in an election of directors, and no vote of the holders of any of Class A Common Stock, Class B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock or Preferred Stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor, regardless of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL (or any successor provisions thereto). No stockholder shall, by reason of the holding of shares of any class or series of capital stock of the Corporation, have any preemptive or preferential right to acquire or subscribe for any shares or securities of any class or series, whether now or hereafter authorized, which may at any time be issued, sold or offered for sale by the Corporation, unless specifically provided for in a Preferred Stock Designation (as hereinafter defined). The Corporation has the authority to create and issue rights, warrants and options entitling the holders thereof to acquire from the Corporation any shares of its capital stock of any class or classes, with such rights, warrants and options to be evidenced by or in instrument(s) approved by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors is empowered to set the exercise price, duration, times for exercise and other terms and conditions of such rights, warrants or options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the consideration to be received for any shares of capital stock issuable upon exercise thereof may not be less than the par value thereof. The Corporation shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of capital stock a number of shares of the class of capital stock issuable pursuant to any such rights, warrants and options outstanding from time to time.
Section 2.
Preferred Stock
. The Board of Directors is authorized, subject to limitations prescribed by law, to provide, by resolution or resolutions for the issuance of shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series, and with respect to each series, to establish the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix the voting powers (if any), designations, powers, preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, if any, of the shares of each such series, and any qualifications, restrictions or limitations thereof, as are stated and expressed herein and in the resolution or resolutions providing for the issue of such class or series adopted by the Board of Directors and included in a certificate or certificates of designation (each, a “
Preferred Stock Designation
”). The powers (including voting powers), preferences, and relative, participating, optional and other special rights of each series of Preferred Stock and the qualifications, restrictions or limitations thereof, if any, may differ from those of any and all other series at any time outstanding. Except as otherwise required by law, holders of a series of Preferred Stock, as such, shall be entitled only to such voting rights, if any, as shall expressly be granted thereto by this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Preferred Stock Designation relating to such series).
Section 3.
Common Stock
.
(a) Except as otherwise provided by the DGCL or this Certificate of Incorporation (as it may be amended, the “
Certificate of Incorporation
”), and subject to the rights of holders of any series of Preferred Stock, all of the
 
A-2

voting power of the stockholders of the Corporation shall be vested in the holders of the Common Stock. Each share of Common Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to one vote for each share held by such holder on all matters voted upon by the stockholders of the Corporation;
provided
,
however
, that, except as otherwise required by law, holders of Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to vote on any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Preferred Stock Designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock) that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of Preferred Stock if the holders of such affected series are entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to this Certificate of Incorporation (including any Preferred Stock Designation relating to any series of Preferred Stock) or pursuant to the DGCL.
(b) Except as otherwise required by law or expressly provided in this Certificate of Incorporation, each share of Common Stock shall have the same powers, rights and privileges and shall rank equally, share ratably and be identical in all respects as to all matters.

A-3

(d) In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution

The holders of shares of Class B Common Stock, as such, shall not be entitled to receive any assets of the Corporation in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or
winding-up
of the affairs of the Corporation. A dissolution, liquidation
or winding-up of
the Corporation, as such terms are used in this paragraph (d), shall not be deemed to be occasioned by or to include any consolidation or merger of the Corporation with or into any other corporation or corporations or other entity or a sale, lease, exchange or conveyance of all or a part of the assets of the Corporation; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event of any such merger, sale, lease, exchange or conveyance, or any other similar transaction or recapitalization, the holders of shares of Class B Common Stock shall not be entitled to any consideration in connection therewith other than the right to receive securities with equivalent terms and conditions as the Class B Common Stock, and the consideration payable in respect of a share of Class A Common Stock shall equal the consideration payable in respect of a Class A Unit.
(e) Shares of Class B Common Stock shall be redeemable for shares of Class A Common Stock on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Fathom Holdco, LLC, dated as of [                    ], 2021, as it may be amended from time to time in accordance with its terms (the “
LLC Agreement
”). The Corporation will at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued shares of Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon redemption of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock for Class A Common Stock pursuant to the LLC Agreement, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock that shall be issuable upon any such redemption pursuant to the LLC Agreement;
 provided
 that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Corporation from satisfying its or its affiliates’ obligations in respect of any such redemption of shares of Class B Common Stock pursuant to the LLC Agreement by delivering (either directly or indirectly through an affiliate) to the holder of shares of Class B Common Stock upon such redemption, in lieu of newly issued shares of Class A Common Stock, cash in the amount permitted by and provided in the LLC Agreement or shares of Class A Common Stock which are held in the treasury of the Corporation. All shares of Class A Common Stock that may be issued upon any such redemption shall, upon issuance in accordance with the LLC Agreement, be validly issued, fully paid
and non-assessable. All
shares of Class B Common Stock redeemed shall not be disposed of out of treasury or otherwise reissued and shall be cancelled.
(f)
Conversion of Class
 C Common Stock
.
(i) Shares of Class C Common Stock shall automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock on a
one-for-one
basis (the “
Initial Conversion Ratio
”): (A) at any time and from time to time at the option of the holder thereof; or (B) automatically and without further action by the Corporation or the holder thereof on the day of the closing of a Business Combination, which for the avoidance of doubt will be the closing of the BCA Transaction.
(ii) Notwithstanding the Initial Conversion Ratio, in the case that additional shares of Class A Common Stock or any other Equity-linked Securities (as hereinafter defined), are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in the IPO and related to the closing of a Business Combination, all outstanding shares of Class C Common Stock shall automatically convert into shares of Class A Common Stock at the time of the closing of a Business Combination at such ratio (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class C Common Stock agree to waive such anti-dilution adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) that results in the number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding shares of Class C Common Stock be equal to, in the aggregate, 20% of the sum of all shares of Class A Common Stock and Class C Common Stock outstanding upon completion of the IPO plus all shares of
 
A-4

Class A Common Stock and Equity-linked Securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination, excluding any shares or Equity-linked Securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in an initial Business Combination.
(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the foregoing adjustment to the Initial Conversion Ratio may be waived as to any particular issuance or deemed issuance of additional shares of Class A Common Stock or Equity-linked Securities by the written consent or agreement of holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class C Common Stock consenting or agreeing separately as a separate class.
(iv) The foregoing conversion ratio shall also be adjusted to account for any subdivision (by share split, subdivision, exchange, capitalization, rights issue, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse share split, share consolidation, exchange, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) or similar reclassification or recapitalizations of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock into a greater or lesser number of shares occurring after the Effective Date without a proportionate and corresponding subdivision, combination or similar reclassification or recapitalization of the outstanding shares of Class C Common Stock.
(v) Each share of Class C Common Stock shall convert into its pro rata number of shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to this
Section
 3(f)
. The pro rata share for each holder of shares of Class C Common Stock will be determined as follows: each share of Class C Common Stock shall convert into such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as is equal to the product of one multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Class C Common Stock into which all of the outstanding shares of Class C Common Stock in issue shall be converted pursuant to this
Section
 3(f)
and the denominator of which shall be the total number of outstanding shares of Class C Common Stock at the time of conversion.
(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Section
 3(f)
, in no event may any share of Class C Common Stock convert into shares of Class A Common Stock at a ratio that is less than
one-for-one
(vii) As used in this
Section
 3(f)
:
(A) “
converted
”, “
conversion
” or “
exchange
” shall have its ordinary meaning under Delaware law, and thereby shall have the same effect as a compulsory redemption without notice of shares of Class C Common Stock of any stockholder and, on behalf of such stockholders, automatic application of such redemption proceeds in paying for such new shares of Class A Common Stock into which the shares of Class C Common Stock have been converted or exchanged at a price per share of Class C Common Stock necessary to give effect to a conversion or exchange calculated on the basis that the shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued as part of the conversion or exchange will be issued at par. The shares of Class A Common Stock to be issued on an exchange or conversion shall be registered in the name of such stockholder or in such name as the stockholder may direct;
(B) “
Equity-linked Securities
” means any debt or equity securities that are convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Class A Common Stock issued in a financing transaction in connection with a Business Combination, including, but not limited to, a private placement of equity or debt; and

IPO
” means the initial public offering of Altimar Cayman.
(viii) Shares of Class C Common Stock converted into shares of Class A Common Stock pursuant to
Section
 3(f)
shall be cancelled by the Corporation and may not be reissued. At any time after consummation of a Business Combination, when there are no longer any shares of Class C Common Stock outstanding, the Corporation shall take all necessary action to retire and eliminate the Class C Common Stock, and shall amend this Certificate of Incorporation to eliminate references thereto.

 3(f)
of this Certificate of Incorporation shall limit or amend any obligation or agreement of any party to the Sponsor Agreement. To the extent of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms and

Bylaws
”). The Board of Directors may postpone, reschedule or cancel any annual meeting of stockholders previously scheduled by the Board of Directors.

Section 4.
Notice of Meetings
. Whenever stockholders are required or permitted to take action at a meeting, notice of the meeting shall be given that shall state the place, if any, date, and time of the meeting of the stockholders, the means of remote communications, if any, by which stockholders and proxyholders not physically present may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting, if such date is different from the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, and, in the case of a special meeting, the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called, shall be given, not less than 10 nor more than 60 days before the date on which the meeting is to be held, to each stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting as of the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to notice of the meeting, except as otherwise provided herein or required by law (meaning, here and hereinafter, as required from time to time by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “
DGCL
”)) or the Certificate of Incorporation.
 
B-1

(a)
Form of Notice
. All such notices shall be delivered in writing or in any other manner permitted by the DGCL. If mailed, such notice shall be deemed given when deposited in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the stockholder at his, her or its address as the same appears on the records of the Corporation. If delivered by courier service, notice shall be deemed given at the earlier of when the notice is received or left at such stockholder’s address as the same appears on the records of the Corporation. If given by electronic mail, notice shall be deemed given when directed to such stockholder’s electronic mail address unless the stockholder has notified the Corporation in writing or by electronic transmission of an objection to receiving notice by electronic mail or such notice is prohibited by the DGCL. Notice to stockholders may also be given by other forms of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder. If given by facsimile telecommunication, such notice shall be deemed given when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice by facsimile. If given by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, such notice shall be deemed given upon the later of (x) such posting and (y) the giving of such separate notice. If notice is given by any other form of electronic transmission, such notice shall be deemed given when directed to the stockholder. An affidavit of the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation, the transfer agent of the Corporation or any other agent of the Corporation that the notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be
prima facie
evidence of the facts stated therein.
(b)
Waiver of Notice
. Whenever notice is required to be given under any provisions of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a written waiver thereof, signed by the stockholder entitled to notice, or a waiver by electronic transmission given by the stockholder entitled to notice, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation need be specified in any waiver of notice of such meeting. Attendance of a stockholder of the Corporation at a meeting of such stockholders shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the stockholder attends for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened and does not further participate in the meeting.
(c)
Notice by Electronic Transmission
. Notwithstanding Section 4(a) of this ARTICLE II, a notice may not be given by electronic transmission from and after the time: (i) the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two (2) consecutive notices given by the Corporation; and (ii) such inability becomes known to the secretary or an assistant secretary of the Corporation or to the transfer agent or other person responsible for the giving of notice. However, the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action. For purposes of these Bylaws, except as otherwise limited by applicable law, the term “
electronic transmission
” means any form of communication not directly involving the physical transmission of paper, including the use of, or participation in, one or more electronic networks or databases (including one or more distributed networks or databases), that creates a record that may be retained, retrieved and reviewed by a recipient thereof, and that may be directly reproduced in paper form by such recipient through an automated process. A notice by electronic mail must include a prominent legend that the communication is an important notice regarding the Corporation. A notice by electronic mail will include any files attached thereto and any information hyperlinked to a website if such electronic mail includes the contact information of an officer or agent of the corporation who is available to assist with accessing such files or information.
Section 5.
List of Stockholders
. The Corporation shall prepare, at least 10 days before each meeting of stockholders, a complete list of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting,
provided

Nothing contained in this section shall require the Corporation to include electronic mail addresses or other electronic contact information on such list. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least 10 days prior to the meeting: (a) on a reasonably accessible electronic network, provided that the information required to gain access to such list is provided with the notice of the meeting, or (b) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. In the event
 
B-2

the Corporation determines to make the list available on an electronic network, the Corporation may take reasonable steps to ensure that such information is available only to stockholders of the Corporation. If the meeting is to be held at a place, the list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof, and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present. If the meeting is to be held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall also be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access such list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. Except as otherwise provided by law, the list shall be the only evidence as to who are the stockholders entitled to examine the list of stockholders required by this Section 5 or to vote in person or by proxy at any meeting of stockholders.
Section 6.
Quorum
. The holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding capital stock entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum at all meetings of the stockholders, except as otherwise provided by law, by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. If a quorum is not present, the chair of the meeting or the holders of a majority of the voting power present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote at the meeting may adjourn the meeting to another time and/or place from time to time until a quorum shall be present or represented by proxy. When a specified item of business requires a vote by a class or series (if the Corporation shall then have outstanding shares of more than one class or series) voting as a separate class or series, the holders of a majority in voting power of the outstanding stock of such class or series entitled to vote thereon shall constitute a quorum (as to such class or series) for the transaction of such item of business. A quorum once established at a meeting shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum.
Section 7.
Adjourned Meetings
. Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may adjourn from time to time to reconvene at the same or some other place. When a meeting is adjourned to another time and place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting the Corporation may transact any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the adjournment is for more than 30 days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. If after the adjournment a new record date for stockholders entitled to vote is fixed for the adjourned meeting, the Board of Directors shall fix a new record date for notice of such adjourned meeting, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board of Directors and, except as otherwise required by law, shall not be more than 60 days nor less than 10 days before the date of such adjourned meeting, and shall give notice of the adjourned meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such adjourned meeting as of the record date fixed for notice of such adjourned meeting.
Section 8.
Vote Required
.

Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast.
Section 9.
Voting Rights
. Subject to the rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock then outstanding, except as otherwise provided by the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, each stockholder entitled to vote at any meeting of stockholders shall be entitled to one vote in person or by proxy for each share of capital stock held by such stockholder which has voting power upon the matter in question. Voting at meetings of stockholders need not be by written ballot.
Section 10.
Proxies
. Each stockholder entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders or to express consent to corporate action in writing without a meeting may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder
 
B-3

by proxy, but no such proxy shall be voted or acted upon after three years from its date, unless the proxy provides for a longer period. A duly executed proxy shall be irrevocable if it states that it is irrevocable and if, and only as long as, it is coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable power. A proxy may be made irrevocable regardless of whether the interest with which it is coupled is an interest in the stock itself or an interest in the Corporation generally.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for so long as CORE beneficially owns in the aggregate (directly or indirectly) at least 20% or more of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Corporation then entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, the Chair of the Board of Directors may be designated by a majority of the directors nominated or designated for nomination by CORE. The Chair of the Board must be a director and may be an officer of the Corporation. Subject to the provisions of these Bylaws and the direction of the Board of Directors, he or she shall perform all duties and have all powers which are commonly incident to the position of Chair of the Board or which are delegated to him or her by the Board of Directors, preside at all meetings of the stockholders and Board of Directors at which he or she is present and have such powers and perform such duties as the Board of Directors may from time to time prescribe. If the Chair of the Board is not present at a meeting of the Board of Directors, the Chair’s designee shall preside at such

meeting, or if the Chair has made no such designation or if the designee is not present at such meeting, a majority of the directors present at such meeting shall elect one of the directors present at the meeting to so preside. At all meetings of the Board of Directors, a majority of the directors then in office shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, provided, however, that a quorum shall never be less than
one-third
the total number of directors. Unless a different vote is required by express provision of an applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, the vote of a majority of directors present at a meeting at which a quorum is present shall be the act of the Board of Directors. At any meeting of the Board of Directors, business shall be transacted in such order and manner as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board of Directors, the directors present thereat may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present.

The Board of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. Except to the extent restricted by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, each such committee, to the extent provided by the DGCL and in the resolution creating it, shall have and may exercise all the powers and authority of the Board of Directors. Each such committee shall serve at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. Each committee shall keep regular minutes of its meetings and report the same to the Board of Directors upon request.
(b) Each committee of the Board of Directors may fix its own rules of procedure and shall hold its meetings as provided by such rules, except as may otherwise be provided by a resolution of the Board of Directors designating such committee. Unless otherwise provided in such a resolution, the presence of at least a majority of the members of the committee shall be necessary to constitute a quorum. All matters shall be determined by a majority vote of the members present at a meeting at which a quorum is present. Unless otherwise provided in such a resolution, in the event that a member and that member’s alternate, if alternates are designated by the Board of Directors, of such committee is or are absent or disqualified, the member or members present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in place of any such absent or disqualified member.
Section 8.
Action by Written Consent
. Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors, or of any committee thereof, may be taken without a meeting if all members of the Board of Directors or such committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing or by electronic transmission. After the action is taken, the consent or consents relating thereto shall be filed with the minutes of proceedings of the board or committee in the same paper form or electronic form as the minutes are maintained.
Section 9.
Compensation
. The Board of Directors shall have the authority to fix the compensation, including fees, reimbursement of expenses and equity compensation, of directors for services to the Corporation in any capacity, including for attendance of meetings of the Board of Directors or participation on any committees.

CERTIFICATES OF STOCK
Section 1.
Form
. The shares of stock of the Corporation shall be represented by certificates, provided that the Board of Directors may provide by resolution that some or all of any or all classes or series of its stock shall be uncertificated shares. Any such resolution shall not apply to shares represented by a certificate until such certificate is surrendered to the Corporation. If shares are represented by certificates, the certificates shall be in such form as required by applicable law and as determined by the Board of Directors. Each certificate shall certify the number of shares owned by such holder in the Corporation and shall be signed by, or in the name of the Corporation by two authorized officers of the Corporation including, but not limited to, the Chair of the Board (if an officer), the President, a Vice President, the Treasurer, the Secretary and an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation. Any or all signatures on the certificate may be a facsimile. In case any officer, transfer agent or registrar who has signed, or whose facsimile signature or signatures have been used on, any such certificate or certificates shall cease to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar of the Corporation whether because of death, resignation or otherwise before such certificate or certificates have been issued by the Corporation, such certificate or certificates may nevertheless be issued as though the person or persons who signed such certificate or certificates or whose facsimile signature or signatures have been used thereon had not ceased to be such officer, transfer agent or registrar of the Corporation at the date of issue. All certificates for shares shall be consecutively numbered or otherwise identified. The Board of Directors may appoint a bank or trust company organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof to act as its transfer agent or registrar, or both in connection with the transfer of any class or series of securities of the Corporation. The Corporation, or its designated transfer agent or other agent, shall keep a book or set of books to be known as the stock transfer books of the Corporation, containing the name of each holder of record, together with such holder’s address and the number and class or series of shares held by such holder and the date of issue. When shares are represented by certificates, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to each holder to whom such shares have been issued or transferred, certificates representing the shares owned by such holder, and shares of stock of the Corporation shall only be transferred on the books of the Corporation by the holder of record thereof or by such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, upon surrender to the Corporation or its designated transfer agent or other agent of the certificate or certificates for such shares endorsed by the appropriate person or persons, with such evidence of the authenticity of such endorsement, transfer, authorization and other matters as the Corporation may reasonably require, and accompanied by all necessary stock transfer stamps. In that event, it shall be the
 
B-17

duty of the Corporation to issue a new certificate to the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate or certificates and record the transaction on its books. When shares are not represented by certificates, shares of stock of the Corporation shall only be transferred on the books of the Corporation by the holder of record thereof or by such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, with such evidence of the authenticity of such transfer, authorization and other matters as the Corporation may reasonably require, and accompanied by all necessary stock transfer stamps, and within a reasonable time after the issuance or transfer of such shares, the Corporation shall, if required by applicable law, send the holder to whom such shares have been issued or transferred a written statement of the information required by applicable law. Unless otherwise provided by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws or any other instrument, the rights and obligations of the holders of uncertificated stock and the rights and obligations of the holders of certificates representing stock of the same class and series shall be identical.
Section 2.
Lost Certificates
. The Corporation may issue or direct a new certificate or certificates or uncertificated shares to be issued in place of any certificate or certificates previously issued by the Corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the owner of the lost, stolen or destroyed certificate. When authorizing such issue of a new certificate or certificates or uncertificated shares, the Corporation may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his or her legal representative, to give the Corporation a bond in such sum as it may direct, sufficient to indemnify the Corporation against any claim that may be made against the Corporation on account of the alleged loss, theft or destruction of any such certificate or the issuance of such new certificate or uncertificated shares.
Section 3.
Registered Stockholders
. The Corporation shall be entitled to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its records as the owner of shares of stock to receive dividends, to vote, to receive notifications and otherwise to exercise all the rights and powers of an owner, except as otherwise required by applicable law. The Corporation shall not be bound to recognize any equitable or other claim to or interest in such share or shares of stock on the part of any other person, whether or not it shall have express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise required by applicable law.
Section 4.
Fixing a Record Date for Purposes Other Than Stockholder Meetings or Actions by Written Consent
. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment or any rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purposes of any other lawful action (other than stockholder meetings and stockholder written consents which are expressly governed by Sections 12 and 13 of ARTICLE II hereof), the Board of Directors may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than 60 days prior to such action. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the Close of Business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution relating thereto.
ARTICLE VI
GENERAL PROVISIONS

ARTICLE VII
INDEMNIFICATION
Section 1.
Right to Indemnification and Advancement
. Each person who was or is made a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved (including involvement, without limitation, as a witness) in any actual or threatened action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “
proceeding
”), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan (an “
indemnitee
”), whether the basis of such proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a director or officer or in any other capacity while serving as a director or officer, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than permitted prior thereto), against all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees and related disbursements, judgments, fines, excise taxes or penalties under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended from time to
 
B-19

time (“
ERISA
”) and any other penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such indemnitee in connection therewith and such indemnification shall continue as to an indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators; provided, however, that, except as provided in this Section 2 of this ARTICLE VII with respect to proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification and advance of expenses (as defined below), the Corporation shall indemnify any such indemnitee in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such indemnitee only if such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized in the specific case by the Board of Directors of the Corporation. The rights to indemnification and advance of expenses conferred in this Section 1 of ARTICLE VII shall be contract rights. In addition to the right to indemnification conferred herein, an indemnitee shall also have the right, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, to be paid by the Corporation the expenses incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition (an “
advance of expenses
”); provided, however, that if and to the extent that the DGCL requires, an advance of expenses shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking (an “
undertaking
”), by or on behalf of such indemnitee, to repay all amounts so advanced if it shall ultimately be determined by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal (a “
final adjudication
”) that such indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under this Section 1 or otherwise. The Corporation may also, by action of its Board of Directors, provide indemnification and advancement to employees and agents of the Corporation. Any reference to an officer of the Corporation in this ARTICLE VII shall be deemed to refer exclusively to the Chair of the Board of Directors, Chief Executive Officer, President, Secretary and Treasurer of the Corporation appointed pursuant to ARTICLE IV, and to any Vice President, Assistant Secretary, Assistant Treasurer or other officer of the Corporation appointed by the Board of Directors pursuant to ARTICLE IV of these
By-laws,
and any reference to an officer of any other enterprise shall be deemed to refer exclusively to an officer appointed by the board of directors or equivalent governing body of such other entity pursuant to the certificate of incorporation and bylaws or equivalent organizational documents of such other enterprise. The fact that any person who is or was an employee of the Corporation or an employee of any other enterprise has been given or has used the title of “Vice President” or any other title that could be construed to suggest or imply that such person is or may be an officer of the Corporation or of such other enterprise shall not result in such person being constituted as, or being deemed to be, an officer of the Corporation or of such other enterprise for purposes of this ARTICLE VII.
Section 2.
Procedure for Indemnification
. Any claim for indemnification or advance of expenses by an indemnitee under this Section 2 of ARTICLE VII shall be made promptly, and in any event within forty-five days (or, in the case of an advance of expenses, twenty days, provided that the director or officer has delivered the undertaking contemplated by Section 1 of this ARTICLE VII if required), upon the written request of the indemnitee. If the Corporation denies a written request for indemnification or advance of expenses, in whole or in part, or if payment in full pursuant to such request is not made within forty-five days (or, in the case of an advance of expenses, twenty days, provided that the indemnitee has delivered the undertaking contemplated by Section 1 of this ARTICLE VII if required), the right to indemnification or advances as granted by this ARTICLE VII shall be enforceable by the indemnitee in any court of competent jurisdiction. Such person’s costs and expenses incurred in connection with successfully establishing his or her right to indemnification, in whole or in part, in any such action shall also be indemnified by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. It shall be a defense to any such action (other than an action brought to enforce a claim for the advance of expenses where the undertaking required pursuant to Section 1 of this ARTICLE VII, if any, has been tendered to the Corporation) that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct which make it permissible under the DGCL for the Corporation to indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed, but the burden of proof shall be on the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law. Neither the failure of the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, a committee thereof, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the circumstances because he or she has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the DGCL, nor an actual determination by the Corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that the claimant has not met the applicable standard of conduct.

. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance on its own behalf and on behalf of any person who is or was or has agreed to become a director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, partner, member, trustee, administrator, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss asserted against him or her and incurred by him or her in any such capacity, or arising out of his or her status as such, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expenses, liability or loss under the DGCL.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the rights to indemnification and to the advance of expenses conferred in this ARTICLE VII shall apply to claims made against an indemnitee arising out of acts or omissions which occurred or occur both prior and subsequent to the adoption hereof. Any amendment, alteration or repeal of this ARTICLE VII that adversely affects any right of an indemnitee or its successors shall be prospective only and shall not limit, eliminate, or impair any such right with respect to any proceeding involving any occurrence or alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that took place prior to such amendment or repeal.
Section 6.
Non-Exclusivity
of Rights; Continuation of Rights of Indemnification
. The rights to indemnification and to the advance of expenses conferred in this ARTICLE VII shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under the Certificate of Incorporation or under any statute,
by-law,
agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. All rights to indemnification under this ARTICLE VII shall be deemed to be a contract between the Corporation and each director or officer of the Corporation who serves or served in such capacity at any time while this ARTICLE VII is in effect. Any repeal or modification of this ARTICLE VII or repeal or modification of relevant provisions of the DGCL or any other applicable laws shall not in any way diminish any rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses of such director or officer or the obligations of the Corporation arising hereunder with respect to any proceeding arising out of, or relating to, any actions, transactions or facts occurring prior to the final adoption of such repeal or modification.
Section 7.
Merger or Consolidation
. For purposes of this ARTICLE VII, references to the “Corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this ARTICLE VII with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he or she would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.
Section 8.
Savings Clause
. To the fullest extent permitted by law, if this ARTICLE VII or any portion hereof shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, then the Corporation shall nevertheless indemnify and advance expenses to each person entitled to indemnification under Section 1 of this ARTICLE VII as to all expense, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees and related disbursements, judgments, fines, ERISA
 
B-21

excise taxes and penalties and any other penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred or suffered by such person and for which indemnification and advancement of expenses is available to such person pursuant to this ARTICLE VII to the fullest extent permitted by any applicable portion of this ARTICLE VII that shall not have been invalidated.

Without limiting the foregoing, following the Closing, Altimar shall and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries (including Fathom) to, (i) maintain for a period of not less than six (6) years from the Closing provisions in its certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other organizational documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of officers and directors/managers that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of such certificates of incorporation, bylaws and other organizational documents as of the Execution Date and (ii) not amend, repeal or otherwise modify such provisions in any respect that would adversely affect the rights of those Persons thereunder, in each case, except as required by Law.
(b) For a period of six (6) years from the Closing, Altimar shall, or shall cause one or more of its Subsidiaries to, maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those Persons who are

provided
,
however
, that Fathom and Altimar may, in the alternative, cause coverage to be extended under such Fathom Blocker’s, Fathom’s or Altimar’s, as applicable, current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a
six-year
“tail” policy containing terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage with respect to claims existing or occurring at or prior to the Closing (the “
D&O Tail

Section
 9.01

Indemnitee Affiliates

The Parties hereby agree, following the Closing, (i) that Altimar, Fathom and their respective Subsidiaries are the indemnitors of first resort (i.e., its obligations to the indemnified Persons under this
Section
 9.01
are primary and any obligation of any Indemnitee Affiliate to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or Liabilities incurred by the indemnified Persons under this
Section
 9.01
are secondary), (ii) that Altimar, Fathom and their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by the indemnified Persons under this
Section
 9.01
and shall be liable for the full amount of all expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and required by Altimar’s or Fathom’s and their respective Subsidiaries’ governing documents or any director or officer indemnification agreements, without regard to any rights the indemnified Persons under this
Section
 9.01
may have against any Indemnitee Affiliate, subject to such indemnified Person providing an undertaking to refund any and all such advances to Altimar in the event that it is determined (by a final
non-appealable
judgment) that such indemnified Person is not entitled to indemnification, and (iii) except with respect to employees and as set forth in the immediately preceding clause (ii), that the Parties (on behalf of themselves and their respective Subsidiaries) irrevocably waive, relinquish and release the Indemnitee Affiliates from any and all claims against the Indemnitee Affiliates for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof.
(d) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this
Section
 9.01
shall survive the consummation of the Mergers indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on the Altimar Surviving Entity and the Fathom Surviving Entity, and all successors and assigns of the Altimar Surviving Entity and the Fathom Surviving Entity. In the event that the Altimar Surviving Entity or the Fathom Surviving Entity or any of their respective successors or assigns consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, Altimar shall take reasonable best efforts to ensure that proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Altimar Surviving Entity or the Fathom Surviving Entity, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this

The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof and thereof, without proof of damages, prior to the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with
Section
 12.01
, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement, and (ii) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, none of the Parties would have entered into this Agreement.

The Parties acknowledge and agree that any Party seeking an injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any Transaction Agreement in accordance with this
Section

Section

Except to the extent a Party hereto (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such Party in this Agreement), (a) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any Party and (b) no past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative or Affiliate of any of the foregoing shall have any Liability (whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise) for any one or more of the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements or other obligations or liabilities of any one or more of Fathom, the Fathom Blockers or the Altimar Parties under this Agreement of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 13.15

. None of the representations, warranties, covenants, obligations or other agreements in this Agreement or in any certificate, statement or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, including any rights arising out of any breach of such representations, warranties, covenants, obligations, agreements and other provisions, shall survive the Closing and instead shall terminate and expire upon the occurrence of the Closing (and there shall be no liability after the Closing in respect thereof), except for (a) those covenants and agreements contained herein that by their terms expressly apply in whole or in part at or after the Closing and then only with respect to any breaches occurring at or after the Closing (including, for the avoidance of doubt

Section
 11.02(d)

C-95

(b) Effective upon Closing, each of the Parties waives, on its own behalf and on behalf of its respective Affiliates and Representatives, to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law, any and all rights, Actions and causes of action it may have against any other Party or their respective Subsidiaries and any of their respective current or former Affiliates or Representatives relating to the operation of any Party or its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses or relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, the Schedules, or the Exhibits to this Agreement, whether arising under or based upon any federal, state, local or foreign statute, Law, ordinance, rule or regulation or otherwise. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that it will not assert, institute or maintain any Action, suit, investigation, or proceeding of any kind whatsoever, including a counterclaim, cross-claim, or defense, regardless of the legal or equitable theory under which such liability or obligation may be sought to be imposed, that makes any claim contrary to the agreements and covenants set forth in this
Section
 13.16
. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this
Section
 13.16(b)
shall preclude any Party from seeking any remedy for Fraud by a Party with respect to the making of the representations and warranties pursuant to
Article V
,
Article VI
or
Article VII
(as applicable). Each Party shall have the right to enforce this
Section
 13.16
on behalf of any Person that would be benefitted or protected by this
Section
 13.16
if they were a party hereto. The foregoing agreements, acknowledgements, disclaimers and waivers are irrevocable. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this
Section
 13.16
shall limit, modify, restrict or operate as a waiver with respect to, any rights any Party may have under any written agreement entered into in connection with the transactions that are contemplated by this Agreement, including any other Transaction Agreement.

non-depreciable
assets shall be disposed of at the time of the direct or indirect sale of the relevant asset in such Change of Control (if earlier than such fifteenth anniversary) for such price;

Procedures, Amendments
.
(a)
Procedure
. Every time the Corporation delivers to the TRA Party Representative a Schedule under this Agreement, including any Amended Schedule delivered pursuant to
Section
 2.3(b)
, and any Early Termination Schedule or amended Early Termination Schedule, the Corporation shall also deliver schedules, valuation reports, if any, and work papers, as determined by the Corporation or reasonably requested by the TRA Party Representative, providing reasonable detail regarding the preparation of the Schedule, and allow the TRA Party Representative reasonable access at no cost to the appropriate representatives of the Corporation, as determined by the Corporation or requested by the TRA Party Representative, in connection with the review of such Schedule. Without limiting the application of the preceding sentence, each time the Corporation delivers to the TRA Party Representative a Tax Benefit Schedule, in addition to the Tax Benefit Schedule duly completed, the Corporation shall also deliver to the TRA Party Representative a reasonably detailed calculation of the applicable Hypothetical Tax Liability, a reasonably detailed calculation of the applicable Actual Tax Liability, as well as any other work papers considered relevant by the Corporation or requested by the TRA Party Representative, provided that the Corporation shall not be required to provide any information that it reasonably believes is unnecessary for purposes of determining the items in the applicable Schedule or amendment thereto. Subject to
Section
 2.3(b)
, an applicable Schedule or amendment thereto shall become final and binding on all parties thirty (30) calendar days after the first date on which the TRA Party Representative has received the applicable Schedule or amendment thereto unless (i) the TRA Party Representative provides the Corporation before such date with notice of a material objection to such Schedule (“
Objection Notice
”) made in good faith or (ii) the TRA Party Representative provides a written waiver of such right of any Objection Notice before such date (in which case such Schedule or amendment thereto becomes binding on the date such waiver has been received by the Corporation). If the Corporation and the TRA Party Representative, for any reason, are unable to successfully resolve the issues raised in an Objection Notice within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt by the Corporation of an Objection Notice, then the Corporation and the TRA Party Representative shall employ the reconciliation procedures described in
Section
7.8
of this Agreement (the “
Reconciliation Procedures

(b)
Amended Schedule
. The applicable Attribute Schedule or Tax Benefit Schedule for any Taxable Year may be amended from time to time by the Corporation (i) in connection with a Determination affecting such Schedule, (ii) to correct inaccuracies in the Schedule identified after the date the Schedule was provided to the TRA Party Representative, (iii) to comply with the Expert’s determination under the Reconciliation Procedures, (iv) to reflect a change in the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year attributable to a carryback or carryforward of a loss or other tax item to such Taxable Year, or (v) to reflect a change in the Realized Tax Benefit or Realized Tax Detriment for such Taxable Year attributable to an amended Tax Return filed for such Taxable Year (any such Schedule, an “
Amended Schedule
”). The Corporation shall provide to the TRA Party Representative an Amended Schedule, along with reasonable detail regarding the preparation of the applicable portion of such Amended Schedule, within sixty (60) calendar days of the occurrence of an event referenced in clauses (i) through (v) of the first sentence of this

ARTICLE III.
TAX BENEFIT PAYMENTS
Section 3.1.
Timing and Amount of Tax Benefit Payments
.
(a) Within five (5) Business Days after a Tax Benefit Schedule delivered to the TRA Party Representative becomes final in accordance with
Section
 2.3(a)
, the Corporation shall pay or cause to be paid to each TRA Party for such Taxable Year an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the Tax Benefit Payment in respect of such TRA Party for such Taxable Year determined pursuant to
Section
 3.1(b)
over (ii) the aggregate amount of Advance Payments previously made to such TRA Party in respect of such Taxable Year; provided that, if the Corporation makes Advance Payments, it shall make Advance Payments to all parties eligible to receive payments under this Agreement with respect to a particular Taxable Year in proportion to their respective amount of anticipated payments under this Agreement in respect of such Taxable Year. Each such Tax Benefit Payment or such Advance Payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the bank account previously designated by such TRA Party to the Corporation or as otherwise agreed by the Corporation and such TRA Party. The Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to respond to any reasonable inquiry of a TRA Party in regard to the calculation of the amount payable to such TRA Party pursuant to any Schedule delivered under this Agreement, including the calculation of the Tax Benefit Payment in respect of such TRA Party for such Taxable Year.
(b) A “
Tax Benefit Payment
” in respect of a TRA Party means an amount, not less than zero, equal to the sum of the portion of the Net Tax Benefit that is Attributable to such TRA Party and the Interest Amount with respect thereto. A Net Tax Benefit is “
Attributable
” to a Blocker TRA Party to the extent that it is derived from a Blocker
Pre-BCA
Covered Tax Asset with respect to a Blocker. A Net Tax Benefit is “
Attributable
” to an Exchange TRA Party to the extent that it is derived from an Exchange Covered Tax Asset with respect to Company Units that were Exchanged by such TRA Party. The “
Net Tax Benefit
” for a Taxable Year shall be an amount equal to the excess, if any, of 85% of the Cumulative Net Realized Tax Benefit as of the end of such Taxable Year over the sum of the total amount of payments previously made under
Section
 3.1(a)
(excluding payments attributable to Interest Amounts) and the Advance Payments previously made under
Section
 3.1(b)
of this Agreement (excluding any portion of Advance Payments in respect of anticipated Interest Amounts); provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that a TRA Party shall not be required to return any portion of any previously made Tax Benefit Payment or Advance Payment it receives under this Agreement. The “
Interest Amount
” in respect of the TRA Party shall equal the interest on the amount of the unpaid Net Tax Benefit Attributable to such TRA Party for a Taxable Year, which interest shall accrue on any unpaid Net Tax Benefit from and after the due date (without extensions) for filing the IRS Form 1120 (or any successor form) for the Corporation for such Taxable Year, calculated at the Agreed Rate, until the date such unpaid amounts are paid. For the avoidance of doubt, for Tax purposes, the Interest Amount shall not be treated as interest but instead shall be treated as additional consideration in the Business Combination or an Exchange, as applicable, unless otherwise required by law. “
Advance Payments
” in respect of a TRA Party for a Taxable Year means the payments made by the Corporation to such TRA Party as an advance of such TRA Party’s anticipated Tax Benefit Payment for such Taxable Year. The Corporation shall be entitled at its option with the approval of a majority of the Independent Directors to make Advance Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, after any
lump-sum
payment under Article IV of this Agreement in respect of present or future Blocker
Pre-BCA
Covered Tax Assets or Exchange Covered Tax Assets, such Blocker
Pre-BCA
Covered Tax Assets or Exchange Covered Tax Assets shall no longer be considered Blocker
Pre-BCA
Covered Tax Assets or Exchange Covered Tax Assets, as applicable, for purposes of determining Tax Benefit Payments or the Net Tax Benefit.
Section 3.2
No Duplicative Payments
. It is intended that the provisions of this Agreement will not result in duplicative payment of any amount (including interest) required under this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement shall be construed consistent with such intent.
 
D-15

Section 3.3.
Pro Rata Payments
.
(a) Notwithstanding anything in
Section
 3.1
to the contrary, to the extent that the aggregate amount of the tax benefit to the Corporation from the reduction in Tax liability as a result of the Blocker
Pre-BCA
Covered Tax Assets or the Exchange Covered Tax Assets is limited in a particular Taxable Year because the Corporation does not have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize available deductions and other attributes, the aggregate Net Tax Benefit for such Taxable Year shall be deemed Attributable to each TRA Party for purposes of
Section
 3.1(b)
in proportion to the portion of such Net Tax Benefit that would be Attributable to such TRA Party under
Section
 3.1(b)
if the Corporation had sufficient taxable income so that there were no such limitation; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of allocating among the TRA Parties the aggregate Net Tax Benefit with respect to any Taxable Year, the operation of this
Section
 3.3(a)
with respect to any prior Taxable Years shall be taken into account so as to eliminate as quickly as possible, proportionately, the difference with respect to each TRA Party between (i) the aggregate Net Tax Benefit that would be Attributable to such TRA Party under
Section
 3.1(b)
with respect to each such Taxable Year (on a cumulative basis) if the Corporation had sufficient taxable income so that there were no limitation under this
Section
 3.3(a)
and (ii) the actual aggregate Net Tax Benefit deemed Attributable to such TRA Party under
Section
 3.1(b)
with respect to each such Taxable Year (on a cumulative basis) by operation of this this
Section
 3.3(a)
. Consistent with the foregoing, the Attribute Schedule for a given Taxable Year shall reflect the operation of this
Section
 3.3(a)
in respect of previous Taxable Years, with the Blocker
Pre-BCA
Covered Tax Assets and Exchange Covered Tax Assets described in such Attribute Schedule that are Attributable to a TRA Party being adjusted to reflect payments received in respect of such Blocker
Pre-BCA
Covered Tax Assets and Exchange Covered Tax Assets (the intention of the parties being to avoid duplicative payments and maintain records sufficient to allow the Corporation to allocate Tax Benefit Payments consistent with the terms of this
Section
 3.3(a)
).
(b) After taking into account
Section
 3.3(a)
, if for any reason the Corporation does not fully satisfy its payment obligations to make Tax Benefit Payments due under this Agreement in respect of a particular Taxable Year (for example, as a result of having insufficient cash to make the Tax Benefit Payments due hereunder), then the Corporation and the TRA Parties agree that (i) the Corporation shall make payments due hereunder to the TRA Parties in respect of a Taxable Year in the same proportion as such payments would have been made if the relevant payment had been made in full by the Corporation, and (ii) no Tax Benefit Payment shall be made in respect of any Taxable Year until all Tax Benefit Payments in respect of prior Taxable Years have been paid.
(c) To the extent the Corporation makes a payment to a TRA Party in respect of a particular Taxable Year under
Section
 3.1(a)
of this Agreement (taking into account
Sections 3.3(a)
and
(b)
) in an amount in excess of the amount of such payment that should have been made to the TRA Party in respect of such Taxable Year, then (i) the TRA Party shall not receive further payments under
Section
 3.1(a)
until the TRA Party has forgone an amount of payments equal to such excess and (ii) the Corporation shall pay the amount of the TRA Party’s forgone payments to other TRA Parties (to the extent applicable) in a manner such that each of the other TRA Parties, to the extent possible, shall have received aggregate payments under
Sections 3.1(a)
and
(b)
 in the amount it would have received if there had been no excess payment to the TRA Party.
Section 3.4.
Withholding
. The Corporation and its affiliates and representatives shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any payment that is payable to any TRA Party pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld with respect to the making of such payment in accordance with the Code or any provision of U.S. state, local or foreign tax law (including for this purpose any withholding required by the Corporation or its affiliates that may be required in connection with an Exchange). To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and promptly paid over to the appropriate Taxing Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid by the Corporation to the relevant TRA Party. The Corporation shall provide evidence of such payment to each TRA Party in respect of which such deduction or withholding is required, to the extent that such evidence is available. Each TRA Party shall promptly provide the Corporation with any applicable tax forms and certifications reasonably requested by the Corporation in connection with determining whether any such deductions and withholdings are required under the Code or any provision of U.S. state, local or foreign tax law. The Corporation will consider in good faith any applicable
 
D-16

certificates, forms or documentation provided by a TRA Party that in such TRA Party’s reasonable determination reduce or eliminate any such withholding.
ARTICLE IV.
TERMINATION
Section 4.1.
Early Termination of Agreement; Breach of Agreement
.
(a) With the prior written approval of the Board (or any Person(s) to whom the Board has delegated such authority), the Corporation may terminate this Agreement with respect to all amounts payable to the TRA Parties at any time by paying to each TRA Party the Early Termination Payment in respect of the TRA Party; provided, however, that (i) this Agreement shall only terminate pursuant to this
Section
 4.1(a)
upon the receipt in full of the Early Termination Payment by the TRA Parties, (ii) the Corporation shall deliver an Early Termination Notice only if it is able to make all required Early Termination Payments under this Agreement, and (iii) the Corporation may withdraw any notice to execute its termination rights under this
Section
 4.1(a)
prior to the time at which any Early Termination Payment has been paid.
(b) In the event that the Corporation breaches any of its material obligations under this Agreement, whether as a result of a failure to make any payment when due, a failure to honor any other material obligation required hereunder or by operation of law as a result of the rejection of this Agreement in a case commenced under the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise, and the Corporation fails to cure such breach within 20 Business Days of the TRA Party Representative informing the Corporation of such breach, then, at the election of the TRA Party Representative, all obligations hereunder shall be accelerated and such obligations shall be calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the date of such breach. Procedures similar to the procedures of
Section
 4.2
shall apply,
mutatis mutandis
, with respect to the determination of the amounts payable by the Corporation pursuant to this
Section
 4.1(b)
. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Corporation breaches any of its material obligations under this Agreement, the TRA Party Representative shall be entitled to elect on behalf of all TRA Parties to receive the amounts referred to in this
Section
 4.1(b)
or to seek specific performance of the terms of this Agreement. The parties agree that the failure to make any payment due pursuant to this Agreement within three (3) months of the date such payment is due shall be deemed to be a breach of a material obligation under this Agreement for all purposes of this Agreement, and that it will not be considered to be a breach of a material obligation under this Agreement to make a payment due pursuant to this Agreement within three (3) months of the date such payment is due. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, it shall not be a breach of a material obligation of this Agreement if the Corporation fails to make any Tax Benefit Payment when due to the extent that the Corporation has insufficient funds to make such payment; provided, (i) the Corporation has used reasonable efforts to obtain such funds (including by causing the Company or any other Subsidiaries of the Company to distribute or lend funds to facilitate such payment, and by accessing any revolving credit facilities or other sources of available credit to fund any such amounts) and (ii) that the interest provisions of
Section
 5.3
shall apply to such late payment (unless the Corporation does not have sufficient funds to make such payment as a result of limitations imposed by any Senior Obligations, in which case
Section
 5.3
shall apply, but the Default Rate shall be replaced by the Agreed Rate).
(c) In connection with a Change of Control, all obligations under this Agreement with respect to the applicable TRA Parties shall be accelerated and such obligations shall be calculated as if an Early Termination Notice had been delivered on the closing date of the Change of Control.
Section
 4.2
and
Section
 4.3
shall apply,
mutatis mutandis
, with respect to the determination of the amounts payable by the Corporation.
Section 4.2.
Early Termination Notice
. If the Corporation chooses to exercise its right of early termination under
Section
 4.1(a)
above, the Corporation shall deliver to the TRA Party Representative written notice of such intention to exercise such right (“
Early Termination Notice
”). In addition, if the Corporation chooses to exercise its right of early termination under
Section
 4.1(a)
above, or the obligations under this Agreement are accelerated
 
D-17

under
Section
 4.1(b)
or
Section
 4.1(c)
above, the Corporation shall deliver to the TRA Party Representative a schedule (the “
Early Termination Schedule
”) showing in reasonable detail the calculation of the Early Termination Payment due to each TRA Party. Such Early Termination Schedule shall become final and binding on all parties consistent with the procedures described in
Section
 2.3(a)
. The date on which the Early Termination Schedule becomes final shall be the “
Early Termination Effective Date
.”
Section 4.3.
Payment upon Early Termination.
(a) Within three (3) calendar days after an Early Termination Effective Date, the Corporation shall pay to the TRA Parties an amount equal to the Early Termination Payment in respect of such TRA Party; provided, however, that any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement as a result of a Change of Control shall be paid concurrently with the consummation of such Change of Control. Such payment shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a bank account or accounts designated by the TRA Party or as otherwise agreed by the Corporation and such TRA Party.
(b) “
Early Termination Payment
” in respect of a TRA Party shall equal (i) the present value, discounted at the Early Termination Rate, as of the date of the Early Termination Notice, of all Tax Benefit Payments in respect of such TRA Party that would be required to be paid by the Corporation beginning from the date of the Early Termination Notice and assuming that the Valuation Assumptions in respect of such TRA Party are applied and that each such Tax Benefit Payment for each relevant Taxable Year would be paid on the due date (including extensions) under applicable law as of the Early Termination Date for filing of IRS Form 1120 (or any successor form) of the Corporation for each such Taxable Year, plus (ii) any Tax Benefit Payment due and payable with respect to such TRA Party that is unpaid as of the date of the Early Termination Notice.
(c) Upon the payment of the Early Termination Payment by the Corporation to a TRA Party, the Corporation shall not have any further payment obligations under this Agreement in respect of such TRA Party.
ARTICLE V.
SUBORDINATION; CERTAIN TAX COVENANTS; LATE PAYMENTS
Section 5.1.
Subordination
. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, any Tax Benefit Payment or Early Termination Payment required to be made by the Corporation under this Agreement shall rank subordinate and junior in right of payment to any principal, interest, or other amounts due and payable in respect of any obligations owed in respect of secured or unsecured indebtedness for borrowed money of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries (“
Senior Obligations
”) and shall rank
pari passu
in right of payment with all current or future unsecured obligations of the Corporation that are not Senior Obligations. To the extent that any payment under this Agreement is not permitted to be made at the time payment is due as a result of this
Section
 5.1
and the terms of the agreements governing Senior Obligations, such payment obligation nevertheless shall accrue for the benefit of the applicable TRA Parties and the Corporation shall make such payments at the first opportunity that such payments are permitted to be made in accordance with the terms of the Senior Obligations (it being understood that interest shall accrue on the amount of such unpaid obligation in accordance with the terms hereof). Payments under any tax receivable agreement or similar agreement (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement) entered into after the date hereof or as part of any transaction entered into after the date hereof in which the Corporation, the Company or their Subsidiaries would be required to pay the parties thereto for tax attributes shall be subordinate to all payments owed pursuant to this Agreement, and no such payments shall be made for so long as the Corporation has any current unpaid obligation pursuant this Agreement. The Corporation shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain sufficient available funds for the purpose of making required payments under this Agreement and avoid entering into credit agreements or Senior Obligations that could be reasonably anticipated to materially delay the timing of any payments under this Agreement.
 
D-18

Section 5.2.
Certain Tax Covenants.
(a) The Corporation hereby agrees and warrants to each TRA Party (i) that it will not cause the Company or any material Subsidiary of the Company to convert into, or elect to be treated as, a corporation for Tax purposes without the prior written consent of the TRA Party Representative, (ii) that it will not cause the Company to contribute any of its material assets into one or more Subsidiaries that are treated as corporations for Tax purposes, or cause the Company to liquidate or distribute in kind any of its material
non-cash
assets to its members, without the prior written consent of the TRA Party Representative, and (iii) that it will cause the Company, and any material Subsidiary that is treated as a partnership for Tax purposes, to make valid Section 754 elections (and all comparable elections under applicable state and local tax law) for its first Taxable Year ending after the date of this Agreement and it will not seek to revoke any such election until the Corporation has received all material tax benefits from all Exchange Party Basis Adjustments and Imputed Interest in respect of which the Corporation may be required to make any payments under this Agreement to the TRA Parties.
(b) The Corporation hereby agrees that prior to (i) any proposed Interest Sale (as defined in
Section
 5.2(c)
) or (ii) any proposed sale or other disposition of all or any substantial part of the
non-cash
assets of the Company, it shall deliver to each TRA Party notice of such proposed transaction at least thirty (30) days prior to the consummation thereof and afford each TRA Party that still holds Company Units the opportunity to Exchange all or part of such Company Units prior to such date.
(c) For purposes of this Agreement, (i) any sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Corporation’s interest in the Company (an “
Interest Sale
”) shall be deemed to be comprised of a sale or other disposition of a pro rata portion of each of the separate interests held by the Corporation (i.e., the original interest of the Corporation as of the date of this Agreement and each additional interest acquired hereafter by Exchange or otherwise), regardless of whether such separate interests can be (or are) identified and separately conveyed, and (ii) notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, for purposes of determining the payments due to the TRA Parties hereunder attributable to such Interest Sale, each such separate interest that was acquired from a TRA Party pursuant to an Exchange shall be treated as a Reference Asset and the Exchange Party Basis Adjustment with respect thereto shall be the excess of the tax basis of the Corporation in such interest immediately after such Exchange over the tax basis of such TRA Party in the applicable Company Units immediately before such Exchange (with such Exchange Party Basis Adjustment to be increased as appropriate to reflect payments by the Corporation to such TRA Party pursuant to this Agreement and to be decreased as appropriate to reflect the depreciation or amortization attributable to the correlative Exchange Party Basis Adjustments to the underlying assets of the Company).
Section 5.3.
Late Payments by the Corporation
. The amount of all or any portion of any Tax Benefit Payment, Early Termination Payment or other payment under this Agreement not made to the TRA Parties when due under the terms of this Agreement shall be payable together with any interest thereon, computed at the Default Rate and commencing from the date on which such Tax Benefit Payment, Early Termination Payment or other payment was due and payable.
ARTICLE VI.
TAX MATTERS; CONSISTENCY; COOPERATION
Section 6.1.
Participation in the Corporation’s and the Company’s Tax Matters
. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Business Combination Agreement or the Company LLC Agreement, the Corporation shall have full responsibility for, and sole discretion over, all Tax matters concerning the Corporation, the Company and their Subsidiaries, including the preparation, filing or amending of any Tax Return and defending, contesting or settling any issue pertaining to Taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
(i) the Corporation shall notify the TRA Party Representative in writing of the commencement of, and keep the TRA Party Representative reasonably informed with respect to, the portion of any audit of the

(ii) shall provide to the TRA Party Representative reasonable opportunity (at the cost and expense of the TRA Party Representative, on behalf of the TRA Parties) to participate in or provide information and other input to the Corporation, the Company and their Subsidiaries, as applicable, and their respective advisors concerning the conduct of any such portion of such audit, which the Corporation, the Company and their Subsidiaries (including their advisors) shall consider in good faith; and
(iii) the Corporation, the Company and their Subsidiaries, as applicable, shall not enter into any settlement with respect to any such portion of such audit that could have a material adverse effect on the TRA Parties’ rights to receive payments under this Agreement without the written consent of the TRA Party Representative, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.
Section 6.2.
Reconciliation
. In the event that the Corporation and the TRA Party Representative are unable to resolve a disagreement with respect to a Schedule (a “
Reconciliation Dispute
”), the Reconciliation Dispute shall be submitted for determination to a nationally recognized expert (the “
Expert
”) in the particular area of disagreement mutually acceptable to such parties. The Expert shall be a partner or principal in a nationally recognized accounting firm. If the Corporation and the TRA Party Representative are unable to agree on an Expert within fifteen (15) calendar days of receipt by the respondent(s) of written notice of a Reconciliation Dispute, the selection of an Expert shall be treated as a dispute subject to
Section 7.8

out-of-pocket
costs and expenses in such proceeding, or (ii) the Expert entirely adopts the Corporation’s position, in which case Tax Benefit Payments to the TRA Parties that would have increased Tax Benefit Payments if the position of the TRA Party Representative had been adopted shall be reduced proportionately in the aggregate by any reasonable and documented
out-of-pocket
costs and expenses in such proceeding. The Expert shall finally determine any Reconciliation Dispute and the determinations of the Expert pursuant to this
Section
 6.2
shall be binding on the Corporation and the TRA Parties and may be entered and enforced in any court having competent jurisdiction.
Section 6.3.
Consistency
. The Corporation and the TRA Parties agree to report and cause to be reported for all purposes, including federal, state and local Tax purposes and financial reporting purposes, all
Tax-related

Section 6.4.
Cooperation

Section 6.6.
Change in Tax Law
. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, in connection with an actual or proposed change in Tax law, a TRA Party reasonably believes that the existence of this Agreement could increase the amount of income (other than income arising from receipt of a payment under this Agreement) recognized by such TRA Party upon any Exchange which is treated as ordinary income rather than capital gain (or otherwise taxed at ordinary income rates) for U.S. federal income and all applicable state and local Tax purposes or would have other material adverse Tax consequences to the TRA Party and/or its direct or indirect owners, then at the election of such TRA Party and to the extent specified by the TRA Party, this Agreement (i) shall cease to have further effect with respect to such TRA Party, (ii) shall not apply to an Exchange by the TRA Party occurring after a date specified by it, or (iii) shall otherwise be amended in a manner determined by the TRA Party to waive any benefits to which such TRA Party would otherwise be entitled under this Agreement, provided that such amendment shall not result in an increase in or acceleration of payments under this Agreement at any time as compared to the amounts and times of payments that would have been due in the absence of such amendment or increase the Corporation’s administrative burden in complying with this Agreement.

amount, refunded to the Corporation.

(a) The rights and obligations of the each TRA Party hereunder are several and not joint with the rights and obligations of any other Person. A TRA Party shall not be responsible in any way for the performance of the obligations of any other Person hereunder, nor shall a TRA Party have the right to enforce the rights or obligations of any other Person hereunder (other than the Corporation). Nothing contained herein or in any other agreement or document delivered at any closing, and no action taken by any TRA Party pursuant hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute the TRA Parties acting as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that the TRA Parties are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such rights or obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Corporation acknowledges that the TRA Parties are not acting in concert or as a group and will not assert any such claim with respect to such rights or obligations or the transactions contemplated hereby.
(b) Except as otherwise explicitly provided in this Agreement, the actions of a TRA Party pursuant to and in accordance with this Agreement shall be binding only with respect to such TRA Party and not with respect to the any other TRA Party. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no TRA Party shall owe any duties (fiduciary or otherwise) to any other TRA Party or any other Person in determining to take or refrain from taking any action or decision under or in connection with this Agreement.

Non-Voting
Observer from any meeting or portion thereof to the extent access to such materials or attendance at such meeting would be reasonably likely to adversely affect the attorney-client privilege between the Company and its counsel or result in disclosure of trade secrets or a conflict of interest; provided, further, that failure to deliver notice, or materials, to such
Non-Voting
Observer in connection with such
Non-Voting
Observer’s right to attend and/or review materials with respect to, any meeting of the Board shall not, by itself, impair the validity of any action taken by such Board at such meeting.

phase-in

(k) At any time that CORE Designator shall have any nomination rights under
Section 2.2
, except as required by Law or the rules and regulations of the Exchange, the Company shall not take any action, including making or recommending any amendment to the Company Charter or the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect CORE Designator’s rights, respectively, under this Agreement, in each case without the prior written consent of CORE Designator.

In the event the Board reasonably finds the CORE Nominee to be unsuitable based upon one or more of the foregoing clauses (i) through (vi) and reasonably objects to the identified director, the CORE Designator shall be entitled to propose a different CORE Nominee to the Board within thirty (30) calendar days of the Company’s notice to the CORE Designator of its objection to the CORE Nominee and such replacement CORE Nominee shall be subject to the review process outlined above.
2.3
Company Obligations
. The Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that prior to the date that the CORE Investors cease to Beneficially Own shares of Common Stock representing at least 5% of the total voting power of the then outstanding Common Stock, (i) each CORE Nominee is included in the Board’s slate of nominees to the stockholders (the “
Board Slate
”) for each election of directors; and (ii) each CORE Nominee is included in the proxy statement prepared by management of the Company in connection with soliciting proxies for every meeting of the stockholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board (each, a “
Director Election Proxy Statement
”), and at every adjournment or postponement
 
E-9

thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of the Company or the Board with respect to the election of members of the Board. CORE Designator will promptly provide reporting to the Company after CORE Designator ceases to Beneficially Own shares of Common Stock representing at least 5% of the total voting power of the then outstanding Common Stock, such that Company is informed of when this obligation terminates. The calculation of the number of CORE Nominees that CORE Designator is entitled to nominate to the Board Slate for any election of directors shall be based on the percentage of the total voting power of the then outstanding Common Stock then Beneficially Owned by CORE (“
CORE Voting Control
”), as applicable, immediately prior to the mailing to shareholders of the Director Election Proxy Statement relating to such election (or, if earlier, the filing of the definitive Director Election Proxy Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission). Unless CORE Designator notifies the Company otherwise prior to the mailing to stockholders of the Director Election Proxy Statement relating to an election of directors, the CORE Nominees for such election shall be presumed to be the same CORE Nominees currently serving on the Board, and no further action shall be required of CORE Designator for the Board to include such CORE Nominees on the Board’s Slate; provided, that, in the event CORE Designator is no longer entitled to nominate the full number of CORE Nominees then serving on the Board, CORE Designator shall provide advance written notice to the Company, of which currently serving CORE Nominee(s) shall be excluded from the Board Slate, and of any other changes to the list of CORE Nominees. If CORE Designator fails to provide such notice prior to the mailing to shareholders of the Director Election Proxy Statement relating to such election (or, if earlier, the filing of the definitive Director Election Proxy Statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission), a majority of the independent directors then serving on the Board shall determine which of the CORE Nominees of CORE Designator then serving on the Board will be included in the Board Slate.
2.4
Compensation
. Except to the extent any CORE Designator may otherwise notify the Company with respect to such CORE Designator’s CORE Nominees, each CORE Nominee shall be entitled to compensation consistent with the Director compensation received by other Directors, including any fees and equity awards.
2.5
Other Rights of CORE Nominees
. Except as provided in
Section 2.3
, each CORE Nominee serving on the Board shall be entitled to the same rights and privileges applicable to all other members of the Board generally or to which all such members of the Board are entitled. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company shall, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, indemnify, exculpate, and reimburse fees and expenses of the CORE Nominees (including by entering into an indemnification agreement in a form substantially similar to the Company’s form director indemnification agreement) and provide the CORE Nominees with director and officer insurance to the same extent it indemnifies, exculpates, reimburses and provides insurance for the other members of the Board pursuant to the Company Charter or Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, applicable Law or otherwise.
2.6
Director Independence
. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the parties hereto shall ensure the composition of the Board will continue to meet all requirements for a company listed on the New York Stock Exchange (or such other stock exchange on which the Class A Common Stock may be listed from time to time), including with respect to director independence.

ARTICLE IV
INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION
4.1
Indemnification
.
4.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Investor of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors and agents and each person who controls such Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
out-of-pocket
expenses (including without
 
F-13

limitation reasonable outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to the Company by such Investor expressly for use therein.
4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement in which an Investor of Registrable Securities is participating, such Investor shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus (the “
Investor Information
”) and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors, officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
out-of-pocket
expenses (including without limitation reasonable outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Investor expressly for use therein;
provided
,
however
, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Investors of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Investor of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Investor from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Investors of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.
4.1.3 Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.
4.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company and each Investor of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Investor’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.
4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under
Section
 4.1
hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
out-of-pocket
expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the
 
F-14

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

The Managing Member will use commercially reasonable and appropriate efforts and means, as determined in good faith by the Managing Member, to minimize any conflict of interest between the Members, on the one hand, and the stockholders of the Managing Member, on the other hand, and to effectuate any transaction that involves or affects any of the Company, the Managing Member, the Members and/or the stockholders of the Managing Member in a manner that does not (i) disadvantage the Members of their interests relative to the stockholders of the Managing Member; (ii) advantage the stockholders of the Managing Member relative to the Members; or (iii) treat the Members and the stockholders of the Managing Member differently.
ARTICLE IV
DISTRIBUTIONS
Section 4.01.
Distributions
(a) The Managing Member, in its sole discretion, may authorize distributions by the Company to the Class A Members, which distributions shall be made
pro rata
in accordance with the Members’ respective Class A Units (other than Unvested Earnout Units) on the date the distribution is made.
(b) Notwithstanding anything in
Section
 4.01(a)
of this Agreement to the contrary, no distribution shall be made in respect of any Unvested Earnout Units. However, upon the vesting of Unvested Earnout Units the holder of each applicable Earnout Unit shall be entitled to a cash payment from the Company in an amount equal to the distributions such Member would have received pursuant to
Section
 4.01(a)
had such Unvested Earnout Unit
 
G-18

been vested beginning at the Fathom Effective Time and ending on the day prior to the date such Unvested Earnout Unit vests.
(c)
Tax Distributions.
(i) With respect to each Fiscal Year or portion thereof ending after the Effective Date, the Company shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, make cash distributions (“
Tax Distributions
”) to each Member in an amount to ensure that each such Member receives a distribution at least equal to such Member’s Assumed Tax Liability, if any, with respect to the relevant taxable period to which the distribution relates. For the avoidance of doubt, such Tax Distributions shall be determined in accordance with Section 4.01(c)(ii). Tax Distributions pursuant to this
Section
 4.1(c)(i)
shall be estimated by the Company on a quarterly basis and, to the extent feasible, shall be distributed to the Members (together with a statement showing the calculation of such Tax Distribution and an estimate of the Company’s net taxable income allocable to each Member for such period) on a quarterly basis five business days prior to April 15th, June 15th, September 15th and January 15th (of the succeeding year) (or such other dates for which individuals are required to make quarterly estimated tax payments for U.S. federal income tax purposes) (each, a “
Quarterly Tax Distribution
”);
provided
, that the foregoing shall not restrict the Company from making a Tax Distribution on any other date. Quarterly Tax Distributions shall take into account the estimated taxable income or loss of the Company for the Fiscal Year through the end of the relevant quarterly period. A final accounting for Tax Distributions shall be made for each Fiscal Year after the allocation of the Company’s actual net taxable income or loss has been determined and any shortfall in the amount of Tax Distributions a Member received for such Fiscal Year based on such final accounting shall promptly be distributed to such Member. For the avoidance of doubt, any excess Tax Distributions a Member receives with respect to any Fiscal Year shall reduce future Tax Distributions otherwise required to be made to such Member with respect to any subsequent Fiscal Year.
(ii) A Tax Distribution to a Member in respect of any Unit shall be charged against current or future distributions to which such Member would otherwise have been entitled under
Section
 4.01(a)
or
Section
 9.03(c)
in respect of such Unit; provided, however, that all Units shall participate in distributions made pursuant to this Section 4.01(c) on a
pro rata
basis. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (A) any distributions made pursuant to this
Section
 4.01(c)
shall be made to the Members on a
pro rata
basis,
(B)
to the extent of Available Cash, the
pro rata
amount to be distributed to each Member shall be calculated based on the distribution to the Member that would have the highest Tax Distribution under this
Section
 4.01(c)
on a
per-Unit
basis, calculated without regard to this sentence and (C) if there is insufficient Available Cash to make all of the distributions described in clause (B), the amount that would have been distributed to each Member pursuant to clause (B) shall be reduced on a
pro rata
basis and the Company shall make future Tax Distributions as soon as there is sufficient Available Cash to pay the remaining portion of the Tax Distributions to which such Members were otherwise entitled under clause (B).
(iii) In the event of any audit by a taxing authority that has been finally settled and as such, affects the calculation of any Member’s Assumed Tax Liability for any taxable year (other than an audit conducted pursuant to the Partnership Audit Provisions for which no election is made pursuant to Section 6226 thereof and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder), or in the event the Company files an amended tax return, each Member’s Assumed Tax Liability with respect to such year shall be recalculated by giving effect to such event (for the avoidance of doubt, taking into account interest or penalties). Any shortfall in the amount of Tax Distributions the Members and former Members received for the relevant taxable years based on such recalculated Assumed Tax Liability promptly shall be distributed to such Members and the successors of such former Members, except, for the avoidance of doubt, to the extent Distributions were made to such Members and former Members pursuant to
Section
 4.01(a)
and this
Section
 4.01(c)
in the relevant taxable years sufficient to cover such shortfall.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Managing Member shall cause any distributions paid to any Subsidiary of the Managing Member who holds Units to distribute the full amount of
 
G-19

such distribution to the Managing Member, and the Managing Member shall take all actions necessary to cause such distributions.

1.704-2(g)
and
1.704-2(i)(5).
The items to be so allocated shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-2(f).

(5) or (6), items of Company income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Member in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate the deficit balance in such Member’s Adjusted Capital Account Balance created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as promptly as possible;
provided
that an allocation pursuant to this
Section
 5.05(b)
shall be made only to the extent that a Member would have a deficit Adjusted Capital Account Balance in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this
Article V
have been tentatively made as if this
Section
 5.05(b)
were not in this Agreement. This
Section
 5.05(b)
is intended to comply with the “qualified income offset” requirement of the Code and shall be interpreted consistently therewith.

2(i)(5), each such Member shall be specially allocated items of Company income and gain in the amount of such excess as quickly as possible;
provided
that an allocation pursuant to this
Section
 5.05(c)
shall be made only if and to the extent that a Member would have a deficit Capital Account in excess of such sum after all other allocations provided for in this
Article V

Ameliorative Allocations
. Any special allocations of income or gain pursuant to
Sections 5.05(b)
or
5.05(c)
hereof shall be taken into account in computing subsequent allocations pursuant to
Section
 5.04
and this
Section
 5.05(f)
, so that the net amount of any items so allocated and all other items allocated to each Member shall, to the extent possible, be equal to the net amount that would have been allocated to each Member if such allocations pursuant to
Sections 5.05(b)
or
5.05(c)
had not occurred.
(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (1) no allocation (of Profits or Losses or otherwise) shall be made in respect of any Earnout Units in determining Capital Accounts unless and
 
G-21

until such Units are vested upon the occurrence of an Earnout Vesting Event, if any, and (2) in the event the Carrying Value of any Company asset is adjusted pursuant to clause (d) of the definition of Carrying Value, any Profits or Losses resulting from such adjustment shall, in the manner reasonably determined by the Managing Member, be allocated among the Members such that the Capital Account balance relating to each Class A Unit (excluding any Unvested Earnout Units) is equal in amount immediately after making such allocation, after taking into account the
non-distribution
amounts (as applicable) in accordance with principles similar to those set forth in Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-
1(b)(2)(iv)(s); provided, that if the foregoing allocations pursuant to clause (2) are insufficient to cause the Capital Account balance relating to each Class A Unit to be so equal in amount, then the Managing Member, in its reasonable discretion, shall cause a Capital Account reallocation in accordance with principles similar to those set forth in Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(s)(3)
to cause the Capital Account balance relating to each Class A Unit to be so equal in amount.
Section 5.06.
Tax Allocations
. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Company shall be allocated among the Members in the same manner as the corresponding items of Profits and Losses and specially allocated items are allocated for Capital Account purposes;
provided
that in the case of any asset the Carrying Value of which differs from its adjusted tax basis for U.S. federal income tax purposes, income, gain, loss and deduction with respect to such asset shall be allocated, solely for income tax purposes, to account for such difference using the “traditional method” without curative allocations under Treasury Regulations
Section 1.704-3(b).
Section 5.07.
Tax Advances
. To the extent the Managing Member reasonably believes that the Company is required by law to withhold or to make tax payments on behalf of or with respect to any Member, or the Company is subjected to tax itself by reason of the status of any Member (including any taxes paid pursuant to Section 6225 of the Code) (“
Tax Advances
”), the Managing Member may cause the Company to withhold such amounts and cause the Company to make such tax payments as so required. All Tax Advances made on behalf of a Member shall be repaid by reducing the amount of the current or next succeeding distribution or distributions which would otherwise have been made to such Member or, if such distributions are not sufficient for that purpose, by so reducing the proceeds of liquidation otherwise payable to such Member. For all purposes of this Agreement such Member shall be treated as having received the amount of the distribution that is equal to the Tax Advance. Each Member hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and the other Members from and against any liability (including any liability for taxes, penalties, additions to tax or interest, but excluding any penalties, additions to tax or interest imposed as a result of the Company’s failure to withhold or make a tax payment on behalf of such Member which withholding or payment is required pursuant to applicable Law) with respect to income or Tax Advances attributable to such Member;
provided
, that any remaining Tax Advance with respect to any Member shall be required to be repaid by such Member in full prior to or in connection with (and as a condition of) any Transfer or any Class A Exchange. The obligation of a Member set forth in this
Section 5.07 shall survive the withdrawal of a Member from the Company or any Transfer of a Member’s interest.
Section 5.08.
Tax Matters
. The Managing Member shall act as or designate a Person to act as the “partnership representative” pursuant to the Partnership Audit Provisions (the “
Partnership Representative

The Partnership Representative shall keep the Continuing Members timely and reasonably informed as to all material tax audits, actions, examinations or proceedings relating to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (“
Tax Proceedings
”). The Partnership Representative shall have the exclusive right to represent the Company in respect of any Tax Proceedings. The Members shall cooperate as reasonably requested by the Partnership Representative in connection with any election or decision made by the Partnership Representative acting in that capacity (including by filing amended tax returns and providing information requested).
Section 5.09.

(b)
Exchange Procedures.
(i) A Class A Exchanging Member shall exercise its right to make a Class A Exchange as set forth in
Section
 8.04(a)
above by providing such Class A Exchange Notice during normal business hours at the principal executive office of Pubco and the Company (or otherwise in accordance with
Section
 11.02
). Within three (3) Business Days following its receipt of a Class A Exchange Notice, the Managing Member may elect to settle all or a portion of the Class A Exchanged Units in cash in an amount equal to the Class A Cash Amount (in lieu of shares of Class A Common Stock), by giving written notice of such election to the Class A Exchanging Member within such three (3) Business Day period (such notice, the “Cash Exchange Notice”). The Cash Exchange Notice shall set forth the portion of the Class A Exchanged Units subject to the Class A Exchange which shall be exchanged for cash in lieu of Class A Common Stock. To the extent any Class A Exchange relates to the exercise of the Class A Exchanging Member’s registration rights under the Registration Rights Agreement, Pubco and the Company shall cooperate in good faith with such Class A Exchanging Member to exercise such Class A Exchange in a manner which preserves such Class A Exchanging Member’s rights thereunder. At any time following the delivery of a Cash Exchange Notice and prior to the Class A Exchange Date, the Managing Member may elect (by giving written notice of such election to the Class A Exchanging Member) to revoke the Cash Exchange Notice with respect to all or any portion of the Class A Exchanged Units and instead deliver the applicable Class A Exchanged Shares with respect to any such Class A Exchanged Units on the Class A Exchange Date.
(ii) [Reserved].
(iii) Each Class A Exchange shall be consummated on the Class A Exchange Date. On the Class A Exchange Date (to be effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Class A Exchange Date), (a) Pubco shall contribute to the Company for delivery to the Class A Exchanging Member (x) the Class A Exchanged Shares with respect to such Class A Exchanged Units not subject to a Cash Exchange Notice and (y) the Class A Cash Amount with respect to any Class A Exchanged Units subject to a Cash Exchange Notice, (b) the Class A Exchanging Member shall transfer and surrender the Class A Exchanged Units to the Company, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, (c) the Company shall issue to Pubco a number of Class A Units equal to the number of shares of Class A Common Stock to be delivered pursuant to clause (a)(x), (d) solely to the extent necessary in connection with a Class A Exchange, Pubco shall undertake all actions, including an issuance, reclassification, distribution, division or recapitalization, with respect to the Class A Common Stock necessary in order to maintain a
one-to-one
ratio between the number of Class A Units owned by Pubco, directly or indirectly, and the number of outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, taking into account the issuance in clause (c), any Class A Exchanged Shares, and any other action taken in connection with this
Section
 8.04
, (e) the Company shall (x) cancel the redeemed Class A Units which were Class A Exchanged Units held by the Class A Exchanging Member and (y) transfer to the Class A Exchanging Member the Class A Cash Amount and/or the Class A Exchanged Shares, as applicable, and (f) Pubco shall cancel the surrendered shares of Class B Common Stock.

(iv) The Company and each Class A Exchanging Member shall bear their own expenses in connection with the consummation of any Class A Exchange, except that the Company shall bear any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, any Class A Exchange;
provided
,
however
, that if any shares of Class A Common Stock are to be delivered in a name other than that of the Class A Exchanging Member, then such Class A Exchanging Member and/or the person in whose name such shares are to be delivered shall pay to the Company the amount of any transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, such Class A Exchange or shall establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid or is not payable (and shall indemnify the Company in the event such transfer taxes, stamp taxes or duties, or other similar taxes in connection with, or arising by reason of, such Class A Exchange are not so paid).

(v) Pubco may adopt reasonable procedures for the implementation of the Class A Exchange provisions set forth in this
Section
 8.04
;
provided
that without the consent of each Continuing Member, Pubco shall not adopt any procedures inconsistent with or that impair or adversely affect the rights of a Member to Exchange Class A Units pursuant to this Agreement. A Class A Exchanging Member may not revoke a Class A Exchange Notice delivered pursuant to
Section
 8.04(a)
above without the consent of the Managing Member, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.
(vi) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, additional restrictions may be imposed on Class A Exchanges by the Managing Member as provided in
Section
 8.06(b)

Adjustment
. If there is: (i) any subdivision (by any unit split, unit distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse unit split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Class A Units that is not accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the Class A Common Stock; or (ii) any subdivision (by any stock split, stock dividend or distribution, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse stock split, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) of the Class A Common Stock that is not accompanied by an identical subdivision or combination of the Units, then, in each case, to the extent necessary to maintain the economic equivalency in the value surrendered for exchange and the value received, the Managing Member shall in good faith adjust the number of shares of Class A Common Stock for which a Class A Unit is entitled to be exchanged under this
Section
 8.04
accordingly. If there is any reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction in which the Class A Common Stock is converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, then upon any subsequent Class A Exchange, a Class A Exchanging Member shall be entitled to receive the amount of such security, securities or other property that such Class A Exchanging Member would have received if such Class A Exchange had occurred immediately prior to the effective date of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction, taking into account any adjustment as a result of any subdivision (by any split, distribution or dividend, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of such security, securities or other property that occurs after the effective time of such reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or other similar transaction. Except as may be required in the immediately preceding sentence, no adjustments in respect of distributions shall be made upon a Class A Exchange.
(d) Class A Common Stock to be Issued.
(i) Pubco shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but unissued Class A Common Stock, solely for the purpose of issuance upon a Class A Exchange, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall be deliverable upon any such Class A Exchange;
provided
that nothing contained herein shall be construed to preclude the Company from satisfying its obligations in respect of the Class A Exchange by delivery of shares of Class A Common Stock which are held in the treasury of Pubco or any of its subsidiaries (other than the Company or any of its subsidiaries) or by delivery of purchased shares of Class A Common Stock (which may or may not be held in the treasury of Pubco or any subsidiary thereof). Pubco and the Company covenant that all Class A Common Stock issued upon a Class A Exchange will, upon issuance, be validly issued, fully paid and
non-assessable.
(ii) Pubco and the Company covenant and agree that, to the extent that a Registration Statement under the Securities Act is effective and available for shares of Class A Common Stock to be delivered with respect to any Class A Exchange, shares that have been registered under the Securities Act shall be delivered in respect of such Class A Exchange. In the event that any Class A Exchange in accordance with this Agreement is to be effected at a time when any required registration has not become effective or otherwise is unavailable, upon the request and with the reasonable cooperation of the applicable Class A Exchanging Member, Pubco and the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly facilitate such Exchange pursuant to any reasonably available exemption from such registration requirements. Pubco and the Company shall use
 
G-31

commercially reasonable efforts to list the Class A Common Stock required to be delivered upon a Class A Exchange prior to such delivery upon each national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system upon which the outstanding Class A Common Stock may be listed or traded at the time of such delivery.
(e)
Pubco Offers
. In the event that a tender offer, share exchange offer, or take-over bid or similar transaction with respect to Class A Common Stock or another Equity Security of Pubco (a “
Pubco Offer
”) is proposed by Pubco or is proposed to Pubco or its stockholders, the holders of Class A Units (or such other Equity Security of the Company corresponding to such Pubco Equity Security) shall be permitted to participate in such Pubco Offer by delivery of a Class A Exchange Notice (which Class A Exchange Notice shall be effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Pubco Offer (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall be contingent upon such Pubco Offer and not be effective if such Pubco Offer is not consummated)). In the case of a Pubco Offer, Pubco shall use its reasonable best efforts to take all such actions and do all such things as are necessary or desirable to enable and permit the holders of Class A Units or other Equity Security to participate in such Pubco Offer to the same extent or on an economically equivalent basis as the holders of shares of Class A Common Stock or other Equity Security without discrimination;
provided
that, without limiting the generality of this sentence (and without limiting the ability of any Member holding Class A Units or such other Equity Security to consummate a Class A Exchange at any time pursuant to the terms of this Agreement), the Managing Member shall use its reasonable best efforts to ensure that such holders of Class A Units or such other Equity Security may participate in such Pubco Offer without being required to effect a Class A Exchange of their Class A Units and cancel their shares of Class B Common Stock, as the case may be, (or, if so required, to ensure that any such Class A Exchange and cancelation shall be effective only upon, and shall be conditional upon, the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Pubco Offer). For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the holders of Class A Units be entitled to receive in such Pubco Offer aggregate consideration for each Class A Unit and share of Class B Common Stock, taken together, that is greater than or less than the consideration payable in respect of each share of Class A Common Stock in connection with such Pubco Offer (it being understood that payments under or in respect of the Tax Receivable Agreement shall not be considered part of any such consideration, and shall be in addition thereto).
(f)
Pubco Call Rights
. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Section
 8.04
, with respect to any Class A Exchange Notice, a Class A Exchanging Member shall be deemed to have offered to sell its Class A Exchanged Units as described in any Class A Exchange Notice directly to Pubco (rather than to the Company), and Pubco may, by delivery of a written notice to the Class A Exchanging Member no later than three (3) Business Days following the giving of a Class A Exchange Notice, in accordance with, and subject to the terms of, this
Section
 8.4(f)
(such notice, a “
Pubco Call Notice
”), elect to purchase directly and acquire such Class A Exchanged Units on the Class A Exchange Date by paying to the Class A Exchanging Member (or such other Person specified in the Class A Exchange Notice) the Class A Exchanged Shares and/or Class A Cash Amount with respect to the Class A Exchanged Units, whereupon Pubco shall acquire the Class A Exchanged Units on the Class A Exchange Date and be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as the owner of such Class A Units. Except as otherwise provided in this
Section
 8.04(f)
, an exercise of the call right of Pubco set forth in this
Section
 8.04(f)
shall be consummated pursuant to the same timeframe and in the same manner as the relevant Class A Exchange would have been consummated if Pubco had not given a Pubco Call Notice, in each case as relevant.
(g)
Distribution Rights
. No Class A Exchange shall impair the right of the Class A Exchanging Member to receive any distributions payable on the Units redeemed pursuant to such Class A Exchange in respect of a record date that occurs prior to the Class A Exchange Date for such Class A Exchange. No Class A Exchanging Member, or a Person designated by a Class A Exchanging Member to receive shares of Class A Common Stock, shall be entitled to receive, with respect to such record date, distributions or dividends both on Class A Units redeemed by the Company from such Class A Exchanging Member and on shares of Class A Common Stock received by such Class A Exchanging Member, or other Person so designated, if applicable, in such Class A Exchange.

Further Restrictions
.
(a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, other than with respect to Transfers in accordance with
Section
 8.04
, in no event may any Transfer of a Unit be made by any Member or Assignee if the Managing Member determines in its reasonable discretion that:
(i) such Transfer is made to any Person who lacks the legal right, power or capacity to own such Unit;
(ii) such Transfer would require the registration of such transferred Unit or of any Class of Unit pursuant to any applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws (including, without limitation, the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) or other
non-U.S.
securities laws (including Canadian provincial or territorial securities laws) or would constitute a
non-exempt
distribution pursuant to applicable provincial or state securities laws; or
(iii) such Transfer would cause (i) all or any portion of the assets of the Company to (A) constitute “plan assets” (under ERISA, the Code or any applicable Similar Law) of any existing or contemplated Member, or (B) be subject to the provisions of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any applicable Similar Law, or (ii) the Managing Member to become a fiduciary with respect to any existing or contemplated Member, pursuant to ERISA, any applicable Similar Law, or otherwise.
(b) Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, in no event shall any Transfer of a Unit be made by any Member or Assignee if the Managing Member determines in its reasonable discretion that such Transfer would pose a material risk that such Transfer would (i) be considered to be effected on or through an “established securities market” or a “secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof” as such terms are used in Treasury Regulations
Section 1.7704-1,
(ii) result in the Company having more than 100 partners, within the meaning of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.7704-1(h)
(determined taking into account the rules of Treasury Regulations
Section 1.7704-1(h)(3)),
or (iii) cause the Company to be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. In addition, notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Agreement, to the extent the Managing Member reasonably determines that additional restrictions on Transfers (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Class A Exchanges) are advisable to minimize the risk that the Company is not treated as a “publicly traded partnership” under Section 7704 of the Code, the Managing Member shall impose such additional restrictions on Transfers as the Managing Member reasonably determines to be so advisable.
(c) To the fullest extent permitted by law, any Transfer in violation of this
Article VIII
shall be deemed null and void
ab initio
and of no effect.

Section
 8.09
. The transferring Member will remain a Member even if it has transferred all of its Units to one or more Assignees until such time as all such Assignee(s) have been admitted to the Company as a Member pursuant to
Section
 8.09

(b) This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create or impose any duty (including any fiduciary duty) on any of the Members (other than the Managing Member in its capacity as such) hereto or on their respective Affiliates. Further, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any duty otherwise existing at law or in equity, the parties hereto agree that no Member (other than the Managing Member, in its capacity as such, as set forth in
Section
 3.06
) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have any duties (including fiduciary duties) to any other Member or to the Company, and in doing so, the parties recognize, acknowledge and agree that their duties and obligations to one another and to the Company are only as expressly set forth in this Agreement;
provided
,
however
, that each Member shall have the duty to act in accordance with the implied contractual covenant of good faith and fair dealing.
(c) To the extent that, at law or in equity, any Member has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Company, to another Member or to another Person who is a party to or is otherwise bound by this Agreement, the Members (other than the Managing Member in its capacity as such) acting under this Agreement will not be liable to the Company, to any such other Member or to any such other Person who is a party to or is otherwise bound by this Agreement, for their good faith reliance on the provisions of this Agreement. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict or eliminate the duties and liabilities relating thereto of any Member otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the Members to replace to that extent such other duties and liabilities of the Members relating thereto.
(d) The Managing Member may consult with legal counsel, accountants and financial or other advisors selected by it, and any act or omission taken by the Managing Member on behalf of the Company or in furtherance of the interests of the Company in good faith in reliance upon and in accordance with the advice of such Person as to matters the Managing Member reasonably believes to be within such Person’s professional or expert competence shall be conclusively presumed to have been done or omitted in good faith and in accordance with such opinion or advice, and the Managing Member will be fully protected in so acting or omitting to act so

Section 10.02.
Indemnification
.
(a)
Exculpation and Indemnification
. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, whether express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no Indemnitee shall be liable to the Company or any Member for any act or omission in relation to the Company or this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby taken or omitted by an Indemnitee in good faith and in the reasonable belief that such act or omission was in the best interests of the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by law, as the same exists or hereafter be amended (but in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide broader indemnification rights than such law permitted the Company to provide prior to such amendment), the Company shall indemnify any Indemnitee who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding (brought in the right of the Company or otherwise), whether civil, criminal, administrative, arbitrative or investigative, and whether formal or informal (hereinafter a “
Proceeding
”), including appeals, by reason of his or her or its status as an Indemnitee or by reason of any action alleged to have been taken or omitted to be taken by an Indemnitee in such capacity, from and against all loss and liability suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement reasonably incurred by such Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, including appeals;
provided
that such Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification hereunder if, but only to the extent that, such Indemnitee’s conduct constituted fraud, bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in
Section
 10.02(c)
, the Company shall be required to indemnify an Indemnitee in connection with any action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) (i) commenced by such Indemnitee only if the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) by such Indemnitee was authorized by the Managing Member, and (ii) by or in the right of the Company only if the Managing Member has provided its prior written consent. The indemnification of an Indemnitee of the type identified in clause (e) of the definition of Indemnitee shall be secondary to any and all indemnification to which such Indemnitee is entitled from the relevant other Person (including any payment made to such Indemnitee under any insurance policy issued to or for the benefit of such Person or Indemnitee) (the “
Primary Indemnification
”), and will only be paid to the extent the Primary Indemnification is not paid and/or does not provide coverage (e.g., a self-insured retention amount under an insurance policy). No such Person shall be entitled to contribution or indemnification from or subrogation against the Company. The indemnification of any other Indemnitee shall, to the extent not in conflict with such policy, be secondary to any and all payment to which such Indemnitee is entitled from any relevant insurance policy issued to or for the benefit of the Company or any Indemnitee. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement shall not affect the indemnification and advancement of rights provided pursuant to the Existing Agreement in favor of any Person relating to proceedings arising out of actions or omissions occurring in whole or in part prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement.
(b)
Advancement of Expenses
. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company shall promptly pay reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by any Indemnitee in appearing at, participating in or defending any Proceeding in advance of the final disposition of such Proceeding, including appeals, upon presentation of an undertaking on behalf of such Indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified under this
Section
 10.02
or otherwise. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in
Section
 10.02(c)
, the Company shall be required to pay expenses of an Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding (or part thereof) (i) commenced by such Indemnitee only if the commencement of such action, suit or proceeding (or part thereof) by such Indemnitee was authorized by the Managing Member and (ii) by or in the right of the Company only if the Managing Member has provided its prior written consent.
(c)
Unpaid Claims
. If a claim for indemnification (following the final disposition of such Proceeding) or advancement of expenses under this
Section
 10.02
is not paid in full within thirty (30) days after a written claim therefor by any Indemnitee has been received by the Company, such Indemnitee may file proceedings to recover
 
G-37

the unpaid amount of such claim and, if successful in whole or in part, shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting such claim. In any such action the Company shall have the burden of proving that such Indemnitee is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses under applicable Law.
(d)
Insurance
. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person described in
Section
 10.02(a)
against any liability asserted against such person, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under the provisions of this
Section
 10.02
or otherwise.
(i) In the event of any payment by the Company under this
Section
 10.02
, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Indemnitee from any relevant other Person or under any insurance policy issued to or for the benefit of the Company, such relevant other Person, or any Indemnitee. Each Indemnitee agrees to execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce any such rights in accordance with the terms of such insurance policy or other relevant document. The Company shall pay or reimburse all expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such subrogation.
(ii) The Company shall not be liable under this
Section
 10.02
to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder (including, but not limited to, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement, and excise taxes with respect to an employee benefit plan or penalties) if and to the extent that the applicable Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under this
Section
 10.02
or any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.
(e)
Non-Exclusivity
of Rights
. The provisions of this
Section
 10.02
shall be applicable to all actions, claims, suits or proceedings made or commenced after the date of this Agreement, whether arising from acts or omissions to act occurring before or after its adoption. The provisions of this
Section
 10.02
shall be deemed to be a contract between the Company and each person entitled to indemnification under this
Section
 10.02
(or legal representative thereof) who serves in such capacity at any time while this
Section
 10.02
and the relevant provisions of applicable Law, if any, are in effect, and any amendment, modification or repeal hereof shall not affect any rights or obligations then existing with respect to any state of facts or any action, suit or proceeding then or theretofore existing, or any action, suit or proceeding thereafter brought or threatened based in whole or in part on any such state of facts. If any provision of this
Section
 10.02
shall be found to be invalid or limited in application by reason of any law or regulation, it shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions hereof. The rights of indemnification provided in this
Section
 10.02
shall neither be exclusive of, nor be deemed in limitation of, any rights to which any person may otherwise be or become entitled or permitted by contract, this Agreement or as a matter of law, both as to actions in such person’s official capacity and actions in any other capacity, it being the policy of the Company that indemnification of any person whom the Company is obligated to indemnify pursuant to
Section
 10.02(a)
shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law.

(i) to select those Eligible Recipients who shall be Participants;

Section 4. Shares Reserved for Issuance Under the Plan and Limitations on Awards.
(a) Subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 5 of the Plan, the Administrator is authorized to deliver with respect to Awards granted under the Plan an aggregate of
[
]
shares of Common Stock.
(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the maximum number of Shares subject to Awards granted during any fiscal year to any
Non-Employee
Director, taken together with any cash fees paid to such
Non-Employee
Director during the fiscal year with respect to such Director’s service as a
Non-Employee
Director, shall not exceed $900,000 (calculating the value of any such Awards based on the grant date Fair Market Value of such Awards for financial reporting purposes); provided, that any Awards granted under the Plan or other compensation received by a
Non-Employee
Director related to the settlement, conversion or substitution of the
Non-Employee
Director’s award(s) under the Prior Plan shall not count against such limit.
(c) Shares issued under the Plan may, in whole or in part, be authorized but unissued Shares or Shares that shall have been or may be reacquired by the Company in the open market, in private transactions or otherwise. Any shares of Common Stock subject to an Award under the Plan that, after the Effective Date, are forfeited, canceled, settled or otherwise terminated without a distribution of Shares to a Participant will thereafter be deemed to be available for Awards with respect to shares of Common Stock. In applying the immediately preceding sentence, if (i) Shares otherwise issuable or issued in respect of, or as part of, any Award are withheld to cover taxes or any applicable Exercise Price, such Shares shall be treated as having been issued under the Plan and shall not be available for issuance under the Plan, and (ii) any Share-settled Stock Appreciation Rights or Options are exercised, the aggregate number of Shares subject to such Stock Appreciation Rights or Options shall be deemed issued under the Plan and shall not be available for issuance under the Plan. In addition, Shares (x) tendered to exercise outstanding Options or other Awards, (y) withheld to cover applicable taxes on any Awards or (z) repurchased on the open market using Exercise Price proceeds shall not be available for issuance under the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, (A) Shares underlying Awards that are subject to the achievement of performance goals shall be counted against the Share reserve based on the target value of such Awards unless and until such time as such Awards become vested and settled in Shares, and (B) Awards that, pursuant to their terms, may be settled only in cash shall not count against the Share reserve set forth in Section 4(a).
(d) Substitute Awards shall not reduce the Shares authorized for grant under the Plan. In the event that a company acquired by the Company or any Affiliate or with which the Company or any Affiliate combines has shares available under a
pre-existing
plan approved by stockholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares available for grant pursuant to the terms of such
pre-existing
plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of common stock of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the Shares authorized for grant under the Plan;
provided
, that Awards using such available Shares shall
 
H-8

not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the
pre-existing
plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not employed by or providing services to the Company or its Affiliates immediately prior to such acquisition or combination.
(e) In the event that the Company or an Affiliate thereof consummates a transaction described in Code Section 424(a) (e.g., the acquisition of property or stock from an unrelated corporation), persons who become Employees or Directors in account of such transaction may be granted Substitute Awards in substitution for awards granted by their former employer, and any such substitute Options or Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted with an Exercise Price less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the grant date thereof; provided, however, the grant of such substitute Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall not constitute a “modification” as defined in Code Section 424(h)(3) and the applicable Treasury regulations.
Section 5. Equitable Adjustments.
In the event of any Change in Capitalization, including, without limitation, a Change in Control, an equitable substitution or proportionate adjustment shall be made, in each case, as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, in (a) the aggregate number of Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan, (b) the kind, number and Exercise Price subject to outstanding Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan;
provided
,
however
, that any such substitution or adjustment with respect to Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall occur in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A, and (c) the kind, number and purchase price of Shares subject to outstanding Restricted Shares or Other
Share-Based
Awards granted under the Plan, in each case as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion;
provided
,
however
, that any fractional Shares resulting from the adjustment shall be eliminated. Such other equitable substitutions or adjustments shall be made as may be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in connection with a Change in Capitalization, the Administrator may provide, in its sole discretion, for the cancellation of any outstanding Award granted hereunder (i) in exchange for payment in cash or other property having an aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares covered by such Award, reduced by the aggregate Exercise Price or purchase price thereof, if any, and (ii) with respect to any Awards for which the Exercise Price or purchase price per share of Common Stock is greater than or equal to the then current Fair Market Value per share of Common Stock, for no consideration. Notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, any adjustment with respect to an Incentive Stock Option due to an adjustment or substitution described in this Section 5 shall comply with the rules of Code Section 424(a), and in no event shall any adjustment be made which would render any Incentive Stock Option granted hereunder to be disqualified as an incentive stock option for purposes of Code Section 422. The Administrator’s determinations pursuant to this Section 5 shall be final, binding and conclusive.
Section 6. Eligibility.
The Participants under the Plan shall be selected from time to time by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, from among Eligible Recipients.
Section 7. Options.
(a)
General
. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, grant Options to Participants. Solely with respect to Participants who are Employees, the Administrator may grant Incentive Stock Options, Nonqualified Stock Options or a combination of both. With respect to all other Participants, the Administrator may grant only Nonqualified Stock Options. Each Participant who is granted an Option shall enter into an Award Agreement with the Company, containing such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall determine, in its sole discretion, which Award Agreement shall specify whether the Option is an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonqualified Stock Option and shall set forth, among other things, the Exercise Price of the Option, the term of the Option and provisions regarding exercisability of the Option granted thereunder. The provisions of each Option need not be the same with respect to each Participant. More than one Option may be granted to the same
 
H-9

Participant and be outstanding concurrently hereunder. Options granted under the Plan shall be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 7 and shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Administrator shall deem desirable and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. The prospective recipient of an Option shall not have any rights with respect to such Award, unless and until such recipient has received an Award Agreement and, if required by the Administrator in the Award Agreement, executed and delivered a fully executed copy thereof to the Company, within a period of sixty (60) days (or such other period as the Administrator may specify) after the award date.
(b)
Limits on Incentive Stock Options
. If the Administrator grants Incentive Stock Options, then to the extent that the aggregate fair market value of Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any individual during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company) exceeds
$100,000,
such Options will be treated as Nonqualified Stock Options to the extent required by Code Section 422. Subject to Section 5, the maximum number of shares that may be issued pursuant to Options intended to be Incentive Stock Options is
[
]
Shares and, for the avoidance of doubt, such share limit shall not be subject to the annual adjustment provided in Section 4(a).
(c)
Exercise Price
. The Exercise Price of Shares purchasable under an Option shall be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion at the time of grant;
provided
,
however
, that (i) in no event shall the Exercise Price of an Option be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant, and (ii) no Incentive Stock Option granted to a ten percent (10%) stockholder of the Company (within the meaning of Code Section 422(b)(6)) shall have an Exercise Price per Share less than
one-hundred
ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on such date.
(d)
Option Term
. The maximum term of each Option shall be fixed by the Administrator, but in no event shall (i) an Option be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the date such Option is granted, and (ii) an Incentive Stock Option granted to a ten percent (10%) stockholder of the Company (within the meaning of Code Section 422(b)(6)) be exercisable more than five (5) years after the date such Option is granted. Each Option’s term is subject to earlier expiration pursuant to the applicable provisions in the Plan and the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator shall have the authority to accelerate the exercisability of any outstanding Option at such time and under such circumstances as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate. Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Plan (including, without limitation, Section 7(h)), if, on the date an outstanding Option would expire, the exercise of the Option, including by a “net exercise” or “cashless” exercise, would violate applicable securities laws or any insider trading policy maintained by the Company from time to time, the expiration date applicable to the Option will be extended, except to the extent such extension would violate Code Section 409A, to a date that is thirty (30) calendar days after the date the exercise of the Option would no longer violate applicable securities laws or any such insider trading policy.
(e)
Exercisability
. Each Option shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions, including the attainment of
pre-established
Performance Goals, as shall be determined by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement. The Administrator may also provide that any Option shall be exercisable only in installments, and the Administrator may waive such installment exercise provisions at any time, in whole or in part, based on such factors as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, an Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a share.
(f)
Method of Exercise
. Options may be exercised in whole or in part by giving written notice of exercise to the Company specifying the number of Shares to be purchased, accompanied by payment in full of the aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares so purchased in cash or its equivalent, as determined by the Administrator. As determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, with respect to any Option or category of Options, payment in whole or in part may also be made (i) by means of consideration received under any cashless exercise procedure approved by the Administrator (including the withholding of Shares otherwise issuable upon exercise),
 
H-10

(ii) in the form of unrestricted Shares already owned by the Participant which have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate Exercise Price of the Shares as to which such Option shall be exercised, (iii) any other form of consideration approved by the Administrator and permitted by applicable law, or (iv) any combination of the foregoing. In determining which methods a Participant may utilize to pay the Exercise Price, the Administrator may consider such factors as it determines are appropriate;
provided
,
however
, that with respect to Incentive Stock Options, all such discretionary determinations shall be made by the Administrator at the time of grant and specified in the Award Agreement.
(g)
Rights as Stockholder
. A Participant shall have no rights to dividends or any other rights of a stockholder with respect to the Shares subject to an Option until the Participant has given written notice of the exercise thereof, has paid in full for such Shares and has satisfied the requirements of Section 16 of the Plan.
(h)
Termination of Employment or Service
. Unless the applicable Award Agreement provides otherwise, in the event that the employment or service of a Participant with the Company and all Affiliates thereof shall terminate, the following terms and conditions shall apply:
(i) In the event of the termination of a Participant’s employment or service by the Company without Cause or due to a resignation by the Participant for any reason, (A) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they are exercisable at the time of such termination, shall remain exercisable until the date that is ninety (90) days after such termination (with such period being extended to one (1) year after the date of such termination in the event of the Participant’s death during such ninety (90) day period), on which date they shall expire, and (B) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were not exercisable at the time of such termination, shall expire at the close of business on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of its term.
(ii) In the event of the termination of a Participant’s employment or service as a result of the Participant’s Disability or death, (A) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were exercisable at the time of such termination, shall remain exercisable until the date that is one (1) year after such termination, on which date they shall expire, and (B) Options granted to such Participant, to the extent that they were not exercisable at the time of such termination, shall expire at the close of business on the date of such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of its term.
(iii) In the event of the termination of a Participant’s employment or service for Cause, all outstanding Options granted to such Participant shall expire at the commencement of business on the date of such termination.
(iv) For purposes of determining which Options are exercisable upon termination of employment or service for purposes of this Section 7(h), Options that are not exercisable solely due to a blackout period shall be considered exercisable.
(v) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, an Incentive Stock Option may not be exercised more than three (3) months following the date as of which a Participant ceases to be an Employee for any reason other than death or Disability. In the event that an Option is exercisable following the date that is three (3) months following the date as of which a Participant ceases to be an Employee for any reason other than death or Disability, such Option shall be deemed to be a Nonqualified Stock Option.
(i)
Other Change in Employment Status
. An Option may be affected, both with regard to vesting schedule and termination, by leaves of absence, changes from full-time to part-time employment, partial disability or other changes in the employment status or service of a Participant, as evidenced in a Participant’s Award Agreement.
(j)
Change in Control
. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control, all outstanding Options shall be subject to Section 12 of the Plan.

H-11

Option outstanding on the Automatic Exercise Date with an Exercise Price per Share that is less than the Fair Market Value per Share as of such date shall automatically and without further action by the Participant or the Company be exercised on the Automatic Exercise Date. In the sole discretion of the Administrator, payment of the exercise price of any such Option shall be made pursuant to Section 7(f)(i) or (ii), and the Company or any Affiliate shall deduct or withhold an amount sufficient to satisfy all taxes associated with such exercise in accordance with Section 16. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, this Section 7(k) shall not apply to an Option if the Participant’s employment or service has terminated on or before the Automatic Exercise Date. For the avoidance of doubt, no Option with an Exercise Price per Share that is equal to or greater the Fair Market Value per Share on the Automatic Exercise Date shall be exercised pursuant to this Section 7(k).
Section 8. Stock Appreciation Rights.
(a)
General
. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted either alone (“
Free Standing Rights

Any Related Right that relates to an Incentive Stock Option must be granted at the same time the Incentive Stock Option is granted. The Administrator shall determine the Eligible Recipients to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Stock Appreciation Rights shall be made, the number of Shares to be awarded, the price per Share, and all other conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Related Right may be granted for more Shares than are subject to the Option to which it relates and any Stock Appreciation Right must be granted with an Exercise Price not less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant. The provisions of Stock Appreciation Rights need not be the same with respect to each Participant.

(ii) Stock Appreciation Rights that are Related Rights shall be exercisable only at such time or times and to the extent that the Options to which they relate shall be exercisable in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 above and this Section 8 of the Plan.

(ii) A Related Right may be exercised by a Participant by surrendering the applicable portion of the related Option. Upon such exercise and surrender, the Participant shall be entitled to receive up to, but not more than, that number of Shares, determined using the Fair Market Value, equal in value to the excess of
 
H-12

the Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise over the Exercise Price specified in the related Option multiplied by the number of Shares in respect of which the Related Right is being exercised. Options which have been so surrendered, in whole or in part, shall no longer be exercisable to the extent the Related Rights have been so exercised.
(iii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may determine to settle the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right in cash (or in any combination of Shares and cash).
(e)
Termination of Employment or Service
.
(i) Subject to Section 8(f), in the event of the termination of employment or service with the Company and all Affiliates thereof of a Participant who has been granted one or more Free Standing Rights, such rights shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Administrator in the applicable Award Agreement.
(ii) Subject to Section 8(f), in the event of the termination of employment or service with the Company and all Affiliates thereof of a Participant who has been granted one or more Related Rights, such rights shall be exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as set forth in the related Options.
(f)
Term
.
(i) The term of each Free Standing Right shall be fixed by the Administrator, but no Free Standing Right shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the date such right is granted.
(ii) The term of each Related Right shall be the term of the Option to which it relates, but no Related Right shall be exercisable more than ten (10) years after the date such right is granted.

The Company or any Affiliate shall deduct or withhold an amount sufficient to satisfy all taxes associated with such exercise in accordance with Section 16. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, this Section 8(h) shall not apply to a Stock Appreciation Right if the Participant’s employment or service has terminated on or before the Automatic Exercise Date. For the avoidance of doubt, no Stock Appreciation Right with an Exercise Price per Share that is equal to or greater the Fair Market Value per Share on the Automatic Exercise Date shall be exercised pursuant to this Section 8(h).

(i) The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, provide for the lapse of restrictions in installments and may accelerate or waive such restrictions in whole or in part based on such factors and such circumstances as the Administrator may determine, in its sole discretion, including, but not limited to, the attainment of certain Performance Goals, the Participant’s termination of employment or service as a
Non-Employee
Director or Consultant of the Company or an Affiliate thereof, or the Participant’s death or Disability.
(ii) Participants holding Restricted Stock Units shall have no voting rights. A Restricted Stock Unit may, at the Administrator’s discretion, carry with it a right to dividend equivalents, subject to Section 18 of the Plan. Such right would entitle the holder to be credited with an amount equal to all cash dividends paid on one Share while the Restricted Stock Unit is outstanding. The Administrator, in its discretion, may grant dividend equivalents from the date of grant or only after a Restricted Stock Unit is vested.
(iii) The rights of Participants granted Restricted Stock Units upon termination of employment or service as a
Non-Employee
Director or Consultant of the Company or an Affiliate thereof terminates for any reason during the Restricted Period shall be set forth in the Award Agreement.
(d)
Settlement of Restricted Stock Units
. Settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units shall be made to Participants in the form of Shares, unless the Administrator, in its sole discretion, provides for the payment of the Restricted Stock Units in cash (or partly in cash and partly in Shares) equal to the value of the Shares that would otherwise be distributed to the Participant.
(e)
Change in Control
. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control, all outstanding Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to Section 12 of the Plan.
Section 11. Other
Share-Based
or Cash-Based Awards.
(a) The Administrator is authorized to grant Awards to Participants in the form of Other
Share-Based
Awards or Other Cash-Based Awards, as deemed by the Administrator to be consistent with the purposes of the Plan and as evidenced by an Award Agreement. The Administrator shall determine the terms and conditions of such Awards, consistent with the terms of the Plan, at the date of grant or thereafter, including any Performance Goals and performance periods. Shares or other securities or property delivered pursuant to an Award in the nature of a purchase right granted under this Section 11 shall be purchased for such consideration, paid for at such times, by such methods, and in such forms, including, without limitation, Shares, other Awards, notes or other property, as the Administrator shall determine, subject to any required corporate action.
(b) The prospective recipient of an Other Share-Based Award or Other Cash-Based Award shall not have any rights with respect to such Award, unless and until such recipient has received an Award Agreement and, if required by the Administrator in the Award Agreement, executed and delivered a fully executed copy thereof to the Company, within a period of sixty (60) days (or such other period as the Administrator may specify) after the award date.
(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon a Change in Control, all outstanding Other Share-Based Awards and Other Cash-Based Awards shall be subject to Section 12 of the Plan.

Section 12. Change in Control.
The Administrator may provide in the applicable Award Agreement that an Award will vest on an accelerated basis upon the Participant’s termination of employment or service in connection with a Change in Control or upon the occurrence of any other event that the Administrator may set forth in the Award Agreement. If the Company is a party to an agreement that is reasonably likely to result in a Change in Control, such agreement may provide for: (i) the continuation of any Award by the Company, if the Company is the surviving corporation; (ii) the assumption of any Award by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary; (iii) the substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent or subsidiary of equivalent awards for any Award,
provided, however
, that any such substitution with respect to Options and Stock Appreciation Rights shall occur in accordance with the requirements of Code Section 409A; or (iv) settlement of any Award for the Change in Control Price (less, to the extent applicable, the per share exercise or grant price), or, if the per share exercise or grant price equals or exceeds the Change in Control Price or if the Administrator determines that Award cannot reasonably become vested pursuant to its terms, such Award shall terminate and be canceled without consideration. To the extent that Restricted Shares, Restricted Stock Units or other Awards settle in Shares in accordance with their terms upon a Change in Control, such Shares shall be entitled to receive as a result of the Change in Control transaction the same consideration as the Shares held by stockholders of the Company as a result of the Change in Control transaction. For purposes of this Section 12, “
Change in Control Price
” shall mean (A) the price per Share paid to stockholders of the Company in the Change in Control transaction, or (B) the Fair Market Value of a Share upon a Change in Control, as determined by the Administrator. To the extent that the consideration paid in any such Change in Control transaction consists all or in part of securities or other
non-cash
consideration, the value of such securities or other
non-cash
consideration shall be determined in good faith by the Administrator.
Section 13. Amendment and Termination.
(a) The Board or the Committee may amend, alter or terminate the Plan, but no amendment, alteration, or termination shall be made that would adversely alter or impair the rights of a Participant under any Award theretofore granted without such Participant’s prior written consent.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) approval of the Company’s stockholders shall be obtained for any amendment that would require such approval in order to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 422, if applicable, any rules of the stock exchange on which the Shares are traded or other applicable law, and (ii) without stockholder approval to the extent required by the rules of any applicable national securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the Shares are listed or quoted, except as otherwise permitted under Section 5 of the Plan, (A) no amendment or modification may reduce the Exercise Price of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right, (B) the Administrator may not cancel any outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right and replace it with a new Option or Stock Appreciation Right, another Award or cash and (C) the Administrator may not take any other action that is considered a “repricing” for purposes of the stockholder approval rules of the applicable securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system.
(c) Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and Code Section 409A, the Administrator may modify, extend or renew outstanding Awards under the Plan, or accept the surrender of outstanding Awards (to the extent not already exercised) and grant new Awards in substitution of them (to the extent not already exercised).
(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no alteration, modification or termination of an Award will, without the prior written consent of the Participant, adversely alter or impair any rights or obligations under any Award already granted under the Plan.
Section 14. Unfunded Status of Plan.
The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. Neither the Company, the Board nor the Committee shall be required to establish any special or separate fund or to segregate any assets to
 
H-16

assure the performance of its obligations under the Plan. With respect to any payments not yet made or Shares not yet transferred to a Participant by the Company, nothing contained herein shall give any such Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company.
Section 15. Deferrals of Payment.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine that the delivery of Shares or the payment of cash, upon the exercise, vesting or settlement of all or a portion of any Award, shall be deferred. The Administrator may also, in its sole discretion, establish one or more programs under the Plan to permit selected Participants the opportunity to elect to defer receipt of any such consideration, including any applicable election procedures, the timing of such elections, the mechanisms for payments of amounts, shares or other consideration so deferred, and such other terms, conditions, rules and procedures that the Administrator deems advisable for the administration of any such deferral program. Deferrals by Participants (or deferred settlement or payment required by the Administrator) shall be made in accordance with Code Section 409A, if applicable, and any other applicable law.
Section 16. Withholding Taxes.
Each Participant shall, no later than the date as of which the value of an Award first becomes includible in the gross income of such Participant for federal, state and/or local income tax purposes, pay to the Company, or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator regarding payment of, any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind, domestic or foreign, required by law or regulation to be withheld with respect to the Award. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be conditional on the making of such payments or arrangements, and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to such Participant. Whenever cash is to be paid pursuant to an Award granted hereunder, the Company shall have the right to deduct therefrom an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements related thereto. Whenever Shares are to be delivered pursuant to an Award, the Company shall have the right to require the Participant to remit to the Company in cash an amount sufficient to satisfy any related federal, state and local taxes, domestic or foreign, to be withheld and applied to the tax obligations. With the approval of the Administrator, a Participant may satisfy the foregoing requirement by electing to have the Company withhold from delivery of Shares or by delivering already owned unrestricted Shares, in each case, having a value equal to the amount required to be withheld or other greater amount not exceeding the maximum statutory rate required to be collected on the transaction under applicable law, as applicable to the Participant, if such other greater amount would not, as determined by the Administrator, result in adverse financial accounting treatment (including in connection with the effectiveness of FASB Accounting Standards Update
2016-09).
Such Shares shall be valued at their Fair Market Value on the date of which the amount of tax to be withheld is determined. Fractional share amounts shall be settled in cash. Such an election may be made with respect to all or any portion of the Shares to be delivered pursuant to an Award. The Company may also use any other method of obtaining the necessary payment or proceeds, as permitted by law, to satisfy its withholding obligation with respect to any Option or other Award (including by a “net exercise” or broker assisted “cashless” exercise procedure approved by the Administrator).
Section 17. Certain Forfeitures.
The Administrator may specify in an Award Agreement that the Participant’s rights, payments and benefits with respect to an Award shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain events, in addition to the applicable vesting conditions of an Award. Such events may include, without limitation, breach of any
non-competition,
non-solicitation,
confidentiality, or other restrictive covenants that are contained in an Award Agreement or that are otherwise applicable to the Participant, a termination of the Participant’s employment for Cause, or other conduct by the Participant that is detrimental to the business or reputation of the Company and its Subsidiaries and/or its Affiliates.
 
H-17

Section 18. Dividends; Dividend Equivalents.
Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, to the extent that an Award contains a right to receive dividends or dividend equivalents while such Award remains unvested, such dividends or dividend equivalents will be accumulated and paid once and to the extent that the underlying Award vests, and forfeited to the extent the underlying Award is forfeited.
Section 19.
Non-United
States Employees.
Without amending the Plan, the Administrator may grant Awards to eligible persons residing in
non-United
States jurisdictions on such terms and conditions different from those specified in the Plan, including the terms of any award agreement or plan, adopted by the Company or any Subsidiary thereof to comply with, or take advantage of favorable tax or other treatment available under, the laws of any
non-United
States jurisdiction, as may in the judgment of the Administrator be necessary or desirable to foster and promote achievement of the purposes of the Plan and, in furtherance of such purposes the Administrator may make such modifications, amendments, procedures,
sub-plans
and the like as may be necessary or advisable to comply with provisions of laws in other countries or jurisdictions in which the Company or its Subsidiaries operates or has employees.
Section 20. Transfer of Awards.
No purported sale, assignment, mortgage, hypothecation, transfer, charge, pledge, encumbrance, gift, transfer in trust (voting or other) or other disposition of, or creation of a security interest in or lien on, any Award or any agreement or commitment to do any of the foregoing (each, a “
Transfer
”) by any holder thereof in violation of the provisions of the Plan or an Award Agreement will be valid, except with the prior written consent of the Administrator, which consent may be granted or withheld in the sole discretion of the Administrator, and other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. Any purported Transfer of an Award or any economic benefit or interest therein in violation of the Plan or an Award Agreement shall be null and void
ab initio
, and shall not create any obligation or liability of the Company, and any person purportedly acquiring any Award or any economic benefit or interest therein transferred in violation of the Plan or an Award Agreement shall not be entitled to be recognized as a holder of such Shares. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator in accordance with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence, an Option may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant or, during any period during which the Participant is under a legal disability, by the Participant’s guardian or legal representative. Under no circumstances will a Participant be permitted to transfer an Option or Stock Appreciation Right to a third-party financial institution without prior stockholder approval.
Section 21. Continued Employment.
The adoption of the Plan shall not confer upon any Eligible Recipient any right to continued employment or service with the Company or an Affiliate thereof, as the case may be, nor shall it interfere in any way with the right of the Company or an Affiliate thereof to terminate the employment or service of any of its Eligible Recipients at any time.
Section 22. Effective Date.
The Plan will be effective as of the date of consummation of the transactions contemplated by that certain business combination agreement, dated as of July 15, 2021, by and among Altimar Acquisition Corp. II, a Cayman Islands corporation, Fathom HoldCo LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and such other parties to the agreement as set forth therein and as subject to approval by the Company’s stockholders (the “
Effective Date
”). The Plan will be unlimited in duration and, in the event of Plan termination, will remain in effect as long as any Shares awarded under it are outstanding and not fully vested;
provided
,
however
, that no Awards will be made under the Plan on or after the tenth anniversary of the Effective Date.
 
H-18

Section 23. Code Section 409A.
The intent of the parties is that payments and benefits under the Plan be either exempt from Code Section 409A or comply with Code Section 409A to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted and be administered consistent with such intent. Any payments described in the Plan that are due within the “short-term deferral period” as defined in Code Section 409A shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Code Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided upon a “separation from service” to a Participant who is a “specified employee” shall be paid on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following the Participant’s separation from service (or upon the Participant’s death, if earlier). In addition, for purposes of the Plan, each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided to the Participant pursuant to the Plan, which constitute deferred compensation subject to Code Section 409A, shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Code Section 409A. Nothing contained in the Plan or an Award Agreement shall be construed as a guarantee of any particular tax effect with respect to an Award. The Company does not guarantee that any Awards provided under the Plan will be exempt from or in compliance with the provisions of Code Section 409A, and in no event will the Company be liable for any or all portion of any taxes, penalties, interest or other expenses that may be incurred by a Participant on account of any Award being subject to, but not in compliance with, Code Section 409A.
Section 24. Compliance with Laws.
(a) The obligation of the Company to settle Awards in Shares or other consideration shall be subject to (i) all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, (ii) such approvals as may be required by governmental agencies or the applicable national securities exchange on which the Shares may be admitted, and (iii) policies maintained by the Company from time to time in order to comply with applicable laws, rules, regulations and corporate governance requirements, including, without limitation, with respect to insider trading restrictions. Notwithstanding any terms or conditions of any Award to the contrary, the Company shall be under no obligation to offer to sell or to sell, and shall be prohibited from offering to sell or selling, any Shares pursuant to an Award unless such shares have been properly registered for sale pursuant to the Securities Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission or unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel (if the Company has requested such an opinion), satisfactory to the Company, that such Shares may be offered or sold without such registration pursuant to an available exemption therefrom and the terms and conditions of such exemption have been fully complied with. The Company shall be under no obligation to register for sale under the Securities Act any of the Shares to be offered or sold under the Plan. The Administrator shall have the authority to provide that all Shares or other securities of the Company issued under the Plan shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan, the applicable Award Agreement, the federal securities laws, or the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the securities of the Company are listed or quoted and any other applicable federal, state, local or
non-U.S.
laws, rules, regulations and other requirements, and the Administrator may cause a legend or legends to be put on certificates representing Shares or other securities of the Company issued under the Plan to make appropriate reference to such restrictions or may cause such Shares or other securities of the Company issued under the Plan in book-entry form to be held subject to the Company’s instructions or subject to appropriate stop-transfer orders. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee reserves the right to add any additional terms or provisions to any Award granted under the Plan that it, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable in order that such Award complies with the legal requirements of any governmental entity to whose jurisdiction the Award is subject.
(b) The Administrator may cancel an Award or any portion thereof if it determines, in its sole discretion, that legal or contractual restrictions and/or blockage and/or other market considerations would make the Company’s acquisition of Shares from the public markets, the Company’s issuance of Shares to the Participant, the Participant’s acquisition of Shares from the Company and/or the Participant’s sale of Shares to the public
 
H-19

markets, illegal, impracticable or inadvisable. If the Administrator determines to cancel all or any portion of an Award in accordance with the foregoing, the Company shall, subject to any limitations or reductions as may be necessary to comply with Code Section 409A, (i) pay to the Participant an amount equal to the excess of (A) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Award or portion thereof canceled (determined as of the applicable exercise date, or the date that the Shares would have been vested or issued, as applicable), over (B) the aggregate Exercise Price (in the case of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right) or any amount payable as a condition of issuance of Shares (in the case of any other Award), and such amount shall be delivered to the Participant as soon as practicable following the cancellation of such Award or portion thereof, or (ii) in the case of Restricted Shares, Restricted Stock Units or Other Share-Based Awards, provide the Participant with a cash payment or equity subject to deferred vesting and delivery consistent with the vesting restrictions applicable to such Restricted Shares, Restricted Stock Units or Other Share-Based Awards, or the underlying Shares in respect thereof.
Section 25. No Interference.
The existence of the Plan, any Award Agreement, and the Awards granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company, the Board, the Committee, or the stockholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization, or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of stock or of options, warrants, or rights to purchase stock or of bonds, debentures, or preferred or prior preference stocks whose rights are superior to or affect the Common Stock or the rights thereof or that are convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company or any Affiliate, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of their assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
Section 26. Erroneously Awarded Compensation; Clawback.
The Plan and all Awards issued hereunder shall be subject to any compensation recovery and/or recoupment policy adopted by the Company to comply with applicable law, including, without limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, or to comport with good corporate governance practices, including on a retroactive basis, as such policies may be amended from time to time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Administrator also may cancel an Award if the Participant, without the consent of the Company, (a) has engaged in or engages in activity that is in conflict with or adverse to the interests of the Company or any Affiliate while employed by or providing services to the Company or any Affiliate, including fraud or conduct contributing to any financial restatements or irregularities or (b) violates a
non-competition,
non-solicitation,
non-disparagement
or
non-disclosure
covenant or agreement with the Company or any Affiliate, as determined by the Administrator, or if the Participant’s employment or service is terminated for Cause. The Administrator may also provide in an Award Agreement that in any such event the Participant will forfeit any compensation, gain or other value realized thereafter on the vesting, exercise or settlement of such Award, the sale or other transfer of such Award, or the sale of shares of Common Stock acquired in respect of such Award, and must promptly repay such amounts to the Company. The Administrator may also provide in an Award Agreement that if the Participant receives any amount in excess of what the Participant should have received under the terms of the Award for any reason (including without limitation by reason of a financial restatement, mistake in calculations or other administrative error), all as determined by the Administrator, then the Participant shall be required to promptly repay any such excess amount to the Company. In addition, the Company shall retain the right to bring an action at equity or law to enjoin the Participant’s activity and recover damages resulting from such activity.
Section 27. Whistleblower Acknowledgements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing in this Plan or any Award Agreement will (a) prohibit a Participant from making reports of possible violations of federal law or regulation to any
 
H-20

governmental agency or entity in accordance with the provisions of and rules promulgated under Section 21F of the Exchange Act or Section 806 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or of any other whistleblower protection provisions of federal law or regulation, or (b) require prior approval by the Company or any of its Affiliates of any reporting described in clause (a).
Section 28. Governing Law.
The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law of such state.
Section 29. Plan Document Controls.
The Plan and each Award Agreement together constitute the entire agreement with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof;
provided

in the Plan in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.
 
I-7

(b)    A Participant’s withdrawal from an Offering Period will not have any effect on his or her eligibility to participate in any similar plan that may hereafter be adopted by the Company or in succeeding Offering Periods that commence after the termination of the Offering Period from which the Participant withdraws.
11.

.
Upon a Participant’s ceasing to be an Eligible Employee for any reason, he or she will be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Plan and the Contributions credited to such Participant’s account during the Offering Period but not yet used to purchase Shares of Common Stock under the Plan will be returned to such Participant or, in the case of his or her death, to the person or persons entitled thereto under Section 15, and such Participant’s option will be automatically terminated. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, a Participant whose employment transfers between entities through a termination with an immediate rehire (with no break in service) by the Company or a Designated Company will not be treated as terminated under the Plan.
12.    
Interest
.

(b)    Shares issued under the Plan may, in whole or in part, be authorized but unissued Shares or Shares that shall have been or may be reacquired by the Company in the open market, in private transactions or otherwise.
(c)    Until the Shares of Common Stock are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), a Participant will have only the rights of an unsecured creditor with respect to such Shares, and no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to such Shares.
(d)    Shares of Common Stock to be delivered to a Participant under the Plan will be registered in the name of the Participant or in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse, as the Participant may elect.
14.    
Administration

sub-plans
may take precedence over other provisions of this Plan, with the exception of Section 13(a) hereof, but unless otherwise
 
1
 
Note to Draft: Initial share reserve to equal 1% of total Shares.
 
I-8

superseded by the terms of such
sub-plan,
the provisions of this Plan will govern the operation of such
sub-plan).
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrator is specifically authorized to adopt rules and procedures regarding eligibility to participate, the definition of Compensation, handling of Contributions, making of Contributions to the Plan (including, without limitation, in forms other than payroll deductions), establishment of bank or trust accounts to hold Contributions, payment of interest, conversion of local currency, obligations to pay payroll tax, determination of beneficiary designation requirements, withholding procedures and handling of stock certificates that vary with applicable local requirements. The Administrator also is authorized to determine that, to the extent permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation
Section 1.423-2(f),
the terms of an option granted under the Plan or an Offering to citizens or residents of a
non-U.S.
jurisdiction will be less favorable than the terms of options granted under the Plan or the same Offering to employees residing solely in the U.S. Every finding, decision, and determination made by the Administrator will, to the full extent permitted by law, be final and binding upon all parties.
15.    
Designation of Beneficiary
.
(a)    If permitted by the Administrator, a Participant may file a designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any Shares of Common Stock and cash, if any, from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death subsequent to an Exercise Date on which the option is exercised but prior to delivery to such Participant of such Shares and cash. In addition, if permitted by the Administrator, a Participant may file a designation of a beneficiary who is to receive any cash from the Participant’s account under the Plan in the event of such Participant’s death prior to exercise of the option. If a Participant is married and the designated beneficiary is not the spouse, spousal consent will be required for such designation to be effective.
(b)    Such designation of beneficiary may be changed by the Participant at any time by notice in a form determined by the Administrator. In the event of the death of a Participant and in the absence of a beneficiary validly designated under the Plan who is living at the time of such Participant’s death, the Company will deliver such Shares and/or cash to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant, or if no such executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its discretion, may deliver such Shares and/or cash to the spouse or to any one or more dependents or relatives of the Participant, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate.
(c)    All beneficiary designations will be in such form and manner as the Administrator may designate from time to time. Notwithstanding Sections 15(a) and (b) above, the Company and/or the Administrator may decide not to permit such designations by Participants in
non-U.S.
jurisdictions to the extent permitted by U.S. Treasury Regulation
Section 1.423-2(f).
16.    
Transferability
. Neither Contributions credited to a Participant’s account nor any rights with regard to the exercise of an option or to receive Shares of Common Stock under the Plan may be assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of in any way (other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or as provided in Section 15 hereof) by the Participant. Any such attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge or other disposition will be without effect, except that the Company may treat such act as an election to withdraw funds from an Offering Period in accordance with Section 10 hereof.
17.    
Use of Funds
. The Company may use all Contributions received or held by it under the Plan for any corporate purpose, and the Company will not be obligated to segregate such Contributions. Until Shares of Common Stock are issued, Participants will have only the rights of an unsecured creditor with respect to such Contributions and such Shares.
18.    
Reports
.
Individual accounts will be maintained for each Participant in the Plan. Statements of account will be given to participating Eligible Employees at least annually, which statements will set forth the

split-up,
spin-off,
combination, repurchase, or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting the Common Stock occurs, the Administrator, in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, will, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust the number and class of Common Stock that may be delivered under the Plan, the Purchase Price per share and the number of shares of Common Stock covered by each option under the Plan that has not yet been exercised, and the numerical limits of Sections 7 and 13.
(b)    
Dissolution or Liquidation
. In the event of the proposed dissolution or liquidation of the Company, any Offering Period then in progress will be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date, and will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed dissolution or liquidation, unless provided otherwise by the Administrator. The New Exercise Date will be before the date of the Company’s proposed dissolution or liquidation. The Administrator will notify each Participant in writing or electronically, prior to the New Exercise Date, that the Exercise Date for the Participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the Participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof.
(c)    
Change in Control
. In the event of a Change in Control, each outstanding option will be assumed or an equivalent option substituted by the successor corporation or a Parent or Subsidiary of the successor corporation. In the event that the successor corporation fails to assume or substitute for the option, the Offering Period with respect to which such option relates will be shortened by setting a New Exercise Date on which such Offering Period will end. The New Exercise Date will occur before the date of the Company’s proposed merger or Change in Control. The Administrator will notify each Participant in writing or electronically prior to the New Exercise Date that the Exercise Date for the Participant’s option has been changed to the New Exercise Date and that the Participant’s option will be exercised automatically on the New Exercise Date, unless prior to such date, the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering Period as provided in Section 10 hereof.

If the Offering Periods are terminated prior to expiration, all amounts then credited to Participants’ accounts that have not been used to purchase Shares of Common Stock will be returned to the Participants (without interest thereon, except as otherwise required under Applicable Laws, as further set forth in Section 12 hereof) as soon as administratively practicable.
(b)    Without stockholder consent and without limiting Section 20(a), the Administrator will be entitled to change the Offering Periods or Purchase Periods, designate separate Offerings, limit the frequency and/or number of changes in the amount withheld during an Offering Period, establish the exchange ratio applicable to amounts withheld in a currency other than U.S. dollars, permit Contributions in excess of the amount designated by a Participant in order to adjust for delays or mistakes in the Company’s processing of properly completed Contribution elections, establish reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or
 
I-10

accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Stock for each Participant properly correspond with Contribution amounts, and establish such other limitations or procedures as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion advisable that are consistent with the Plan.
(c)    In the event the Administrator determines that the ongoing operation of the Plan may result in unfavorable financial accounting consequences, the Administrator may, in its discretion and, to the extent necessary or desirable, modify, amend or terminate the Plan to reduce or eliminate such accounting consequence including, but not limited to:
(i)    amending the Plan to conform with the safe harbor definition under the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (or any successor thereto), including with respect to an Offering Period underway at the time;
(ii)    altering the Purchase Price for any Offering Period or Purchase Period including an Offering Period or Purchase Period underway at the time of the change in Purchase Price;
(iii)    shortening any Offering Period or Purchase Period by setting a New Exercise Date, including an Offering Period or Purchase Period underway at the time of the Administrator action;
(iv)    reducing the maximum percentage of Compensation a Participant may elect to set aside as Contributions; and
(v)    reducing the maximum number of Shares of Common Stock a Participant may purchase during any Offering Period or Purchase Period.

23.

In furtherance of the foregoing and notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, if the Administrator determines that an option granted under the Plan may be subject to Section 409A of the Code or that any provision in the Plan would cause an option under the Plan to be subject to Code Section 409A, the Administrator may amend the terms of the Plan and/or of an outstanding option granted under the Plan, or take such other action the Administrator determines is necessary or appropriate, in each case, without the Participant’s consent, to exempt any outstanding option or future option that may be granted under the Plan from or to allow any such options to comply with Section 409A of the Code, but only to the extent any such amendments or action by the Administrator would not violate Code Section 409A. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will have no liability to a Participant or any other party if any option to purchase Common Stock under the Plan that is intended to be exempt from or compliant with Section 409A of the Code is not so exempt or compliant or for any
 
I-11

action taken by the Administrator with respect thereto. The Company makes no representation that any option to purchase Common Stock under the Plan is compliant with Section 409A of the Code.

choice-of-law

28.

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
”) no later than (30) calendar days after the Closing Date, and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) sixty (60) calendar days after the filing thereof (or, in the event the Commission reviews and has written comments to the Registration Statement, the ninetieth (90th) calendar day following the
 
J-10

filing thereof) and (ii) the tenth (10th) business day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review ((i) and (ii) collectively, the “
Effectiveness
Deadline
”); provided, that if such day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide a draft of the Registration Statement to the undersigned for review and 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 Subscriber, 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 prior to the Registration Statement becoming effective 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 and as promptly as practicable after being permitted to register additional Subscribed Shares under Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the Company shall amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement to register such additional Subscribed Shares that were not included in the initial Registration Statement and cause such amendment or Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable. 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 without limitation as to the manner of sale or the amount of such securities that may be sold 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). If requested by 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 at the time of sale of such Registrable Securities (as defined below) and, at the request of a Holder (as defined below), 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 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. Any costs related to the foregoing, including fees of the transfer agent, DTC and legal counsel to the Company shall be borne by the Company. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to make and keep public information available (as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144) and 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 Class A Common 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
 
J-11

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 Subscriber or any affiliate of Subscriber to which the rights under this
Section
 6
shall have been assigned. 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; provided that Subscriber shall not in connection with the foregoing be required to execute any
lock-up
or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual restriction on the ability to transfer Subscriber Shares. In the case of the registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall, upon reasonable request, inform Subscriber as to the status of such registration. 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, in the reasonable determination of the Company’s board of directors, upon advice of legal counsel, 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.
(b) 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. At its expense the Company shall:
(i) advise Subscriber, as expeditiously as possible:
(i) when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission;
(ii) after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;
(iii) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Subscribed Shares included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and
(iv) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Company shall not, when so advising Subscriber of such events, provide Subscriber with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company
 
J-12

other than to the extent that providing notice to Subscriber of the occurrence of the events listed in (i) through (iv) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding the Company.
 
  (ii)
use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable;
 
  (iii)
upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in
Section
 6(b)(i)(iv)
above, except for such times as the Company is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Subscribed Shares included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
 
  (iv)
use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow Subscriber to review disclosure regarding Subscriber in the Registration Statement; and
 
  (v)
otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by Subscriber, consistent with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, in connection with the registration of the Subscribed Shares.
(c) Upon receipt of any written notice from the Company (which notice shall not contain any material
non-public
information regarding the Company) of the occurrence 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

Section 9.
Indemnity
.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, Subscriber, its directors, and officers, employees, and agents, and each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of 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 Subscriber expressly for use therein.
(b) 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
 
J-14

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 to the Company by or on behalf of Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Company upon the sale of the Subscribed Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Each of the Company and Fathom acknowledge and agree that each purchase by Subscriber of Subscribed Shares from the Company will constitute a reaffirmation of each of the respective acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein (as modified by such notice) made by each of the Company and Fathom as of the time of such purchase.
(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
 9
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. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this
Section
 9
from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Any contribution pursuant to this
Section
 9(e)
by any seller of Subscribed Shares shall be limited in amount to the amount of net proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Subscribed Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will any party be liable for consequential, special, exemplary or punitive damages in connection with this Subscription Agreement.

”) no later than (30) calendar days after the Closing Date, and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) sixty (60) calendar days after the filing thereof (or, in the event the Commission reviews and has written comments to the Registration Statement, the ninetieth (90th) calendar day following the
 
J-38

filing thereof) and (ii) the tenth (10th) business day after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review ((i) and (ii) collectively, the “
Effectiveness
Deadline
”); provided, that if such day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to provide a draft of the Registration Statement to the undersigned for review and 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 Subscriber, 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 prior to the Registration Statement becoming effective 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 and as promptly as practicable after being permitted to register additional Subscribed Shares under Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the Company shall amend the Registration Statement or file a new Registration Statement to register such additional Subscribed Shares that were not included in the initial Registration Statement and cause such amendment or Registration Statement to become effective as promptly as practicable. 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 without limitation as to the manner of sale or the amount of such securities that may be sold 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). If requested by 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 at the time of sale of such Registrable Securities (as defined below) and, at the request of a Holder (as defined below), 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 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. Any costs related to the foregoing, including fees of the transfer agent, DTC and legal counsel to the Company shall be borne by the Company. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to make and keep public information available (as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144) and 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 Class A Common 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
 
J-39

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 Subscriber or any affiliate of Subscriber to which the rights under this
Section
 6
shall have been assigned. 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; provided that Subscriber shall not in connection with the foregoing be required to execute any
lock-up
or similar agreement or otherwise be subject to any contractual restriction on the ability to transfer Subscriber Shares. In the case of the registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall, upon reasonable request, inform Subscriber as to the status of such registration. 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, in the reasonable determination of the Company’s board of directors, upon advice of legal counsel, 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.
(b) 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. At its expense the Company shall:
(i) advise Subscriber, as expeditiously as possible:
(i) when a Registration Statement or any amendment thereto has been filed with the Commission;
(ii) after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose;
(iii) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Subscribed Shares included therein for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose; and
(iv) subject to the provisions in this Subscription Agreement, of the occurrence of any event that requires the making of any changes in any Registration Statement or prospectus so that, as of such date, the statements therein are not misleading and do not omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of a prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the Company shall not, when so advising Subscriber of such events, provide Subscriber with any material, nonpublic information regarding the Company
 
J-40

other than to the extent that providing notice to Subscriber of the occurrence of the events listed in (i) through (iv) above constitutes material, nonpublic information regarding the Company.
 
  (ii)
use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable;
 
  (iii)
upon the occurrence of any event contemplated in
Section
 6(b)(i)(iv)
above, except for such times as the Company is permitted hereunder to suspend, and has suspended, the use of a prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as soon as reasonably practicable prepare a post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus, or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to purchasers of the Subscribed Shares included therein, such prospectus will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
 
  (iv)
use its commercially reasonable efforts to allow Subscriber to review disclosure regarding Subscriber in the Registration Statement; and
 
  (v)
otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by Subscriber, consistent with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, in connection with the registration of the Subscribed Shares.
(c) Upon receipt of any written notice from the Company (which notice shall not contain any material
non-public
information regarding the Company) of the occurrence 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 7.
Termination
. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreement is validly terminated in accordance with its terms without being consummated, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of all parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) if, on the Closing Date of the Transactions, 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) by written notice from Subscriber or any other party given anytime on or after December 31, 2021, if the Closing has not occurred by such date and the terminating party’s breach was not the primary reason
 
J-41

the Closing failed to occur by such date, (the termination events described in clauses (a)–(d) above, collectively, the “Termination Events”); provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination or common law intentional fraud in the making of any representation or warranty hereunder, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach or fraud. The Company shall notify Subscriber of the termination of the Transaction Agreement promptly after the termination thereof. Upon the occurrence of any Termination Event, except as set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of this
Section
 7
, this Subscription Agreement shall be void and of no further effect and any portion of the Purchase Price paid by Subscriber to Company in connection herewith shall promptly (and in any event within two business days) following the Termination Event be returned to Subscriber.
Section 8.
Trust Account Waiver
. Subscriber hereby acknowledges that the Company 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 the Company’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 (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, in each case arising out of or as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to this Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement, 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 this Subscription Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement, and (c) will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever;
provided
,
however
, that nothing in this
Section
 8
shall be deemed to limit any Subscriber’s right to distributions from the Trust Account in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation in respect of shares of Class A Common Shares of the Company acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.
Section 9.
Indemnity
.
(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the extent permitted by law, Subscriber, its directors, and officers, employees, and agents, and each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) and each affiliate of 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 Subscriber expressly for use therein.
(b) 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
 
J-42

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 to the Company by or on behalf of Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by the Company upon the sale of the Subscribed Shares purchased pursuant to this Subscription Agreement giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Each of the Company and Fathom acknowledge and agree that each purchase by Subscriber of Subscribed Shares from the Company will constitute a reaffirmation of each of the respective acknowledgments, understandings, agreements, representations and warranties herein (as modified by such notice) made by each of the Company and Fathom as of the time of such purchase.
(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
 9
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. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this
Section
 9
from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Any contribution pursuant to this
Section
 9(e)
by any seller of Subscribed Shares shall be limited in amount to the amount of net proceeds received by such seller from the sale of such Subscribed Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will any party be liable for consequential, special, exemplary or punitive damages in connection with this Subscription Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subscriber may assign its rights and obligations under this Subscription Agreement to one or more of its affiliates, 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.

7.2

The redemption of such Shares, except Public Shares, shall be effected in such manner and upon such other terms as the Company may, by Special Resolution, determine before the issue of such Shares. With respect to redeeming or repurchasing the Shares:
 
  (a)
Members who hold Public Shares are entitled to request the redemption of such Shares in the circumstances described in the Business Combination Article hereof;
 
K-8

  (b)
Class B Shares held by the Founders shall be surrendered by the Founders for no consideration to the extent that the Over-Allotment Option is not exercised in full so that the Founders will own 20 per cent of the Company’s issued Shares after the IPO (exclusive of any securities purchased in a private placement simultaneously with the IPO); and
 
  (c)
Public Shares shall be repurchased by way of tender offer in the circumstances set out in the Business Combination Article hereof.

Variation of Rights of Shares
 
10.1
Subject to Article 3.1, if at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes of Shares, all or any of the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class) may, whether or not the Company is being wound up, be varied without the consent of the holders of the issued Shares of that class where such variation is considered by the Directors not to have a material adverse effect upon such rights; otherwise, any such variation shall be made only with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than two thirds of the issued Shares of that class (other than with respect to a waiver of the provisions of the Class B Ordinary Share Conversion Article hereof, which as stated therein shall only require the consent in writing of the holders of a majority of the issued Shares of that class), or with the approval of a resolution passed by a majority of not less than two thirds of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the Shares of that class. For the avoidance of doubt, the Directors reserve the right, notwithstanding that any such variation may not have a material adverse effect, to obtain consent from the holders of Shares of the relevant class. To any such meeting all the provisions of the Articles relating to general meetings shall apply
mutatis mutandis
, except that the necessary quorum shall be one person holding or representing by proxy at least one third of the issued Shares of the class and that any holder of Shares of the class present in person or by proxy may demand a poll.
 
10.2
For the purposes of a separate class meeting, the Directors may treat two or more or all the classes of Shares as forming one class of Shares if the Directors consider that such class of Shares would be affected in the same way by the proposals under consideration, but in any other case shall treat them as separate classes of Shares.
 
10.3
The rights conferred upon the holders of the Shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class, be deemed to be varied: (i) by the creation or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu therewith or Shares issued with preferred or other rights; or (ii) where the constitutional documents of the Company are amended or new constitutional documents of the Company are adopted, in each case, as a result of the Company undertaking a transfer by way of continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands.
 
K-9

11
Commission on Sale of Shares
The Company may, in so far as the Statute permits, pay a commission to any person in consideration of his subscribing or agreeing to subscribe (whether absolutely or conditionally) or procuring or agreeing to procure subscriptions (whether absolutely or conditionally) for any Shares. Such commissions may be satisfied by the payment of cash and/or the issue of fully or partly
paid-up
Shares. The Company may also on any issue of Shares pay such brokerage as may be lawful.
 
12
Non Recognition of Trusts
The Company shall not be bound by or compelled to recognise in any way (even when notified) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any Share, or (except only as is otherwise provided by the Articles or the Statute) any other rights in respect of any Share other than an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the holder.
 
13
Lien on Shares
 
13.1
The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on all Shares (whether fully
paid-up
or not) registered in the name of a Member (whether solely or jointly with others) for all debts, liabilities or engagements to or with the Company (whether presently payable or not) by such Member or his estate, either alone or jointly with any other person, whether a Member or not, but the Directors may at any time declare any Share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this Article. The registration of a transfer of any such Share shall operate as a waiver of the Company’s lien thereon. The Company’s lien on a Share shall also extend to any amount payable in respect of that Share.
 
13.2
The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any Shares on which the Company has a lien, if a sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable, and is not paid within fourteen clear days after notice has been received or deemed to have been received by the holder of the Shares, or to the person entitled to it in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of the holder, demanding payment and stating that if the notice is not complied with the Shares may be sold.
 
13.3
To give effect to any such sale the Directors may authorise any person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Shares sold to, or in accordance with the directions of, the purchaser. The purchaser or his nominee shall be registered as the holder of the Shares comprised in any such transfer, and he shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor shall his title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the sale or the exercise of the Company’s power of sale under the Articles.
 
13.4
The net proceeds of such sale after payment of costs, shall be applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable and any balance shall (subject to a like lien for sums not presently payable as existed upon the Shares before the sale) be paid to the person entitled to the Shares at the date of the sale.
 
14
Call on Shares
 
14.1
Subject to the terms of the allotment and issue of any Shares, the Directors may make calls upon the Members in respect of any monies unpaid on their Shares (whether in respect of par value or premium), and each Member shall (subject to receiving at least fourteen clear days’ notice specifying the time or times of payment) pay to the Company at the time or times so specified the amount called on the Shares. A call may be revoked or postponed, in whole or in part, as the Directors may determine. A call may be required to be paid by instalments. A person upon whom a call is made shall remain liable for calls made upon him notwithstanding the subsequent transfer of the Shares in respect of which the call was made.
 
14.2
A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising such call was passed.
 
14.3
The joint holders of a Share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof.
 
K-10

14.4
If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable, the person from whom it is due shall pay interest on the amount unpaid from the day it became due and payable until it is paid at such rate as the Directors may determine (and in addition all expenses that have been incurred by the Company by reason of such
non-payment),
but the Directors may waive payment of the interest or expenses wholly or in part.
 
14.5
An amount payable in respect of a Share on issue or allotment or at any fixed date, whether on account of the par value of the Share or premium or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a call and if it is not paid all the provisions of the Articles shall apply as if that amount had become due and payable by virtue of a call.
 
14.6
The Directors may issue Shares with different terms as to the amount and times of payment of calls, or the interest to be paid.
 
14.7
The Directors may, if they think fit, receive an amount from any Member willing to advance all or any part of the monies uncalled and unpaid upon any Shares held by him, and may (until the amount would otherwise become payable) pay interest at such rate as may be agreed upon between the Directors and the Member paying such amount in advance.
 
14.8
No such amount paid in advance of calls shall entitle the Member paying such amount to any portion of a Dividend or other distribution payable in respect of any period prior to the date upon which such amount would, but for such payment, become payable.
 
15
Forfeiture of Shares
 
15.1
If a call or instalment of a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable the Directors may give to the person from whom it is due not less than fourteen clear days’ notice requiring payment of the amount unpaid together with any interest which may have accrued and any expenses incurred by the Company by reason of such
non-payment.
The notice shall specify where payment is to be made and shall state that if the notice is not complied with the Shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.
 
15.2
If the notice is not complied with, any Share in respect of which it was given may, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors. Such forfeiture shall include all Dividends, other distributions or other monies payable in respect of the forfeited Share and not paid before the forfeiture.
 
15.3
A forfeited Share may be sold,
re-allotted
or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit and at any time before a sale,
re-allotment
or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit. Where for the purposes of its disposal a forfeited Share is to be transferred to any person the Directors may authorise some person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Share in favour of that person.
 
15.4
A person any of whose Shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Member in respect of them and shall surrender to the Company for cancellation the certificate for the Shares forfeited and shall remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which at the date of forfeiture were payable by him to the Company in respect of those Shares together with interest at such rate as the Directors may determine, but his liability shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of all monies due and payable by him in respect of those Shares.
 
15.5
A certificate in writing under the hand of one Director or Officer that a Share has been forfeited on a specified date shall be conclusive evidence of the facts stated in it as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the Share. The certificate shall (subject to the execution of an instrument of transfer) constitute a good title to the Share and the person to whom the Share is sold or otherwise disposed of shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall his title to the Share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the Share.
 
15.6
The provisions of the Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a Share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the par value of the Share or by way of premium as if it had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.
 
K-11

16
Transmission of Shares
 
16.1
If a Member dies, the survivor or survivors (where he was a joint holder), or his legal personal representatives (where he was a sole holder), shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to his Shares. The estate of a deceased Member is not thereby released from any liability in respect of any Share, for which he was a joint or sole holder.
 
16.2
Any person becoming entitled to a Share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other way than by transfer) may, upon such evidence being produced as may be required by the Directors, elect, by a notice in writing sent by him to the Company, either to become the holder of such Share or to have some person nominated by him registered as the holder of such Share. If he elects to have another person registered as the holder of such Share he shall sign an instrument of transfer of that Share to that person. The Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before his death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution, as the case may be.
 
16.3
A person becoming entitled to a Share by reason of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution of a Member (or in any other case than by transfer) shall be entitled to the same Dividends, other distributions and other advantages to which he would be entitled if he were the holder of such Share. However, he shall not, before becoming a Member in respect of a Share, be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to general meetings of the Company and the Directors may at any time give notice requiring any such person to elect either to be registered himself or to have some person nominated by him be registered as the holder of the Share (but the Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before his death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution or any other case than by transfer, as the case may be). If the notice is not complied with within ninety days of being received or deemed to be received (as determined pursuant to the Articles), the Directors may thereafter withhold payment of all Dividends, other distributions, bonuses or other monies payable in respect of the Share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.
 
17
Class B Ordinary Share Conversion
 
17.1
The rights attaching to the Class A Shares and Class B Shares shall rank
pari passu
in all respects, and the Class A Shares and Class B Shares shall vote together as a single class on all matters (subject to the Variation of Rights of Shares Article and the Appointment and Removal of Directors Article hereof) with the exception that the holder of a Class B Share shall have the conversion rights referred to in this Article.
 
17.2
Class B Shares shall automatically convert into Class A Shares on a
one-for-one
basis (the “
Initial Conversion Ratio
”): (a) at any time and from time to time at the option of the holders thereof; and (b) automatically on the day of the closing of a Business Combination.
 
17.3
Notwithstanding the Initial Conversion Ratio, in the case that additional Class A Shares or any other Equity-linked Securities are issued or deemed issued, by the Company in excess of the amounts offered in the IPO and related to the closing of a Business Combination, all Class B Shares in issue shall automatically convert into Class A Shares at the time of the closing of a Business Combination at an adjusted ratio so that the number of Class A Shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B Shares will equal, in the aggregate, 20 per cent of the sum of: (a) the total number of Class A Shares and Class B Shares issued and outstanding upon completion of the IPO, plus (b) the total number of Class A Shares issued or deemed issued or issuable upon conversion or exercise of any Equity-linked Securities or rights issued, or deemed issued, by the Company in connection with or in relation to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, excluding any Class A Shares or Equity-linked Securities exercisable for or convertible into Class A Shares issued, deemed issued, or to be issued, to any seller in the initial Business Combination and any private placement warrants or units issued to the Sponsor, its Affiliates or any Director or Officer upon conversion of working capital loans made to the Company.
 
K-12

17.4
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the foregoing adjustment to the Initial Conversion Ratio may be waived as to any particular issuance or deemed issuance of additional Class A Shares or Equity-linked Securities by the written consent or agreement of holders of a majority of the Class B Shares then in issue consenting or agreeing separately as a separate class in the manner provided in the Variation of Rights of Shares Article hereof.
 
17.5
The foregoing conversion ratio shall also be adjusted to account for any subdivision (by share subdivision, exchange, capitalisation, rights issue, reclassification, recapitalisation or otherwise) or combination (by share consolidation, exchange, reclassification, recapitalisation or otherwise) or similar reclassification or recapitalisation of the Class A Shares in issue into a greater or lesser number of shares occurring after the original filing of the Articles without a proportionate and corresponding subdivision, combination or similar reclassification or recapitalisation of the Class B Shares in issue.
 
17.6
Each Class B Share shall convert into its pro rata number of Class A Shares pursuant to this Article. The pro rata share for each holder of Class B Shares will be determined as follows: each Class B Share shall convert into such number of Class A Shares as is equal to the product of 1 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of Class A Shares into which all of the Class B Shares in issue shall be converted pursuant to this Article and the denominator of which shall be the total number of Class B Shares in issue at the time of conversion.
 
17.7
References in this Article to “
converted
”, “
conversion
” or “
exchange
” shall mean the compulsory redemption without notice of Class B Shares of any Member and, on behalf of such Members, automatic application of such redemption proceeds in paying for such new Class A Shares into which the Class B Shares have been converted or exchanged at a price per Class B Share necessary to give effect to a conversion or exchange calculated on the basis that the Class A Shares to be issued as part of the conversion or exchange will be issued at par. The Class A Shares to be issued on an exchange or conversion shall be registered in the name of such Member or in such name as the Member may direct.
 
17.8
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, in no event may any Class B Share convert into Class A Shares at a ratio that is less than
one-for-one.

The instrument appointing a proxy may be in any usual or common form (or such other form as the Directors may approve) and may be expressed to be for a particular meeting or any adjournment thereof or generally until revoked. An instrument appointing a proxy shall be deemed to include the power to demand or join or concur in demanding a poll.
 
25.5

There shall be a board of Directors consisting of not less than one person provided however that the Company may by Ordinary Resolution increase or reduce the limits in the number of Directors.
 
28.2
The Directors shall be divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. The number of Directors in each class shall be as nearly equal as possible.

Except as the Statute or other Applicable Law may otherwise require, in the interim between annual general meetings or extraordinary general meetings called for the appointment of Directors and/or the removal of one or more Directors and the filling of any vacancy in that connection, additional Directors and any vacancies in the board of Directors, including unfilled vacancies resulting from the removal of Directors for cause, may be filled by the vote of a majority of the remaining Directors then in office, although less than a quorum (as defined in the Articles), or by the sole remaining Director. All Directors shall hold office until the expiration of their respective terms of office and until their successors shall have been appointed and qualified. A Director appointed to fill a vacancy resulting from the death, resignation or removal of a Director shall serve for the remainder of the full term of the Director whose death, resignation or removal shall have created such vacancy and until his successor shall have been appointed and qualified.

No person shall be eligible for appointment as a Director unless nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Articles. Except as otherwise provided by Applicable Law or the Articles, the chairman or
co-chairman
of any annual general meeting to appointment Directors or the Directors may, if the facts warrant, determine that a nomination was not made in compliance with the foregoing procedure or if the Member solicits proxies in support of such Member’s nominee(s) without such Member having made the representation required by Article 29.3(c); and if the chairman,
co-chairman
or the Directors should so determine, it shall be so declared to the annual general meeting, and the defective nomination shall be disregarded. Notwithstanding anything in the Articles to the contrary, unless otherwise required by the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law, if a Member intending to make a nomination at an annual general meeting in accordance with this Article does not:

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article, any Member intending to make a nomination at an annual general meeting in accordance with this Article, and each related beneficial owner, if any, shall also comply with all requirements of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to the same extent as if the Shares were registered under the Exchange Act with respect to the matters set forth in the Articles; provided, however, that any references in the Articles to the Exchange Act are not intended to and shall not limit the requirements applicable to nominations made or intended to be made in accordance with Article 29.1(b).
 
29.6
Nothing in this Article shall be deemed to affect any rights of the holders of any class of Preference Shares, or any other class of Shares authorised to be issued by the Company, to appoint Directors pursuant to the terms thereof.

re-appointment
as a Director pursuant to Article 29.1(b), a person must deliver (not later than the deadline prescribed for delivery of notice) to the Company a

  (d)
if appointed as a Director, will act in the best interests of the Company and not in the interest of any individual constituency. The Nominating Committee shall review all such information submitted by the Member with respect to the proposed nominee and determine whether such nominee is eligible to act as a Director. The Company and the Nominating Committee may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as may reasonably be required by the Company to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as an independent Director or that could be material to a reasonable Member’s understanding of the independence, or lack thereof, of such nominee.

The continuing Directors (or a sole continuing Director, as the case may be) may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body, but if and so long as their number is reduced below the number fixed by or pursuant to the Articles as the necessary quorum of Directors the continuing Directors or Director may act for the purpose of increasing the number of Directors to be equal to such fixed number, or of summoning a general meeting of the Company, but for no other purpose.
 
33.7
The Directors may elect a chairman of their board and determine the period for which he is to hold office; but if no such chairman is elected, or if at any meeting the chairman is not present within five minutes after the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the Directors present may choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting.

All acts done by any meeting of the Directors or of a committee of the Directors shall, notwithstanding that it is afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of any Director, and/or that they or any of them were disqualified, and/or had vacated their office and/or were not entitled to vote, be as valid as if every such person had been duly appointed and/or not disqualified to be a Director and/or had not vacated their office and/or had been entitled to vote, as the case may be.
 
33.9
A Director may be represented at any meetings of the board of Directors by a proxy appointed in writing by him. The proxy shall count towards the quorum and the vote of the proxy shall for all purposes be deemed to be that of the appointing Director.

Presumption of Assent
A Director who is present at a meeting of the board of Directors at which action on any Company matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to the action taken unless his dissent shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless he shall file his written dissent from such action with the person acting as the chairman or secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or shall forward such dissent by registered post to such person immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to a Director who voted in favour of such action.

35.5
A general notice that a Director is a shareholder, director, officer or employee of any specified firm or company and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction with such firm or company shall be sufficient disclosure for the purposes of voting on a resolution in respect of a contract or transaction in which he has an interest, and after such general notice it shall not be necessary to give special notice relating to any particular transaction.

Dividends, Distributions and Reserve
 
41.1
Subject to the Statute and this Article and except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, the Directors may resolve to pay Dividends and other distributions on Shares in issue and authorise payment of the Dividends or other distributions out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefor. A Dividend shall be deemed to be an interim Dividend unless the terms of the resolution pursuant to which the Directors resolve to pay such Dividend specifically state that such Dividend shall be a final Dividend. No Dividend or other distribution shall be paid except out of the realised or unrealised profits of the Company, out of the share premium account or as otherwise permitted by law.
 
41.2
Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, all Dividends and other distributions shall be paid according to the par value of the Shares that a Member holds. If any Share is issued on terms providing that it shall rank for Dividend as from a particular date, that Share shall rank for Dividend accordingly.
 
41.3
The Directors may deduct from any Dividend or other distribution payable to any Member all sums of money (if any) then payable by him to the Company on account of calls or otherwise.
 
41.4
The Directors may resolve that any Dividend or other distribution be paid wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets and in particular (but without limitation) by the distribution of shares, debentures, or securities of any other company or in any one or more of such ways and where any difficulty arises in regard to such distribution, the Directors may settle the same as they think expedient and in particular may issue fractional Shares and may fix the value for distribution of such specific assets or any part thereof and may determine that cash payments shall be made to any Members upon the basis of the value so fixed in order to adjust the rights of all Members and may vest any such specific assets in trustees in such manner as may seem expedient to the Directors.
 
41.5
Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, Dividends and other distributions may be paid in any currency. The Directors may determine the basis of conversion for any currency conversions that may be required and how any costs involved are to be met.
 
41.6
The Directors may, before resolving to pay any Dividend or other distribution, set aside such sums as they think proper as a reserve or reserves which shall, at the discretion of the Directors, be applicable for any purpose of the Company and pending such application may, at the discretion of the Directors, be employed in the business of the Company.
 
41.7
Any Dividend, other distribution, interest or other monies payable in cash in respect of Shares may be paid by wire transfer to the holder or by cheque or warrant sent through the post directed to the registered address of the holder or, in the case of joint holders, to the registered address of the holder who is first named on the Register of Members or to such person and to such address as such holder or joint holders may in writing direct. Every such cheque or warrant shall be made payable to the order of the person to whom it is sent. Any one of two or more joint holders may give effectual receipts for any Dividends, other distributions, bonuses, or other monies payable in respect of the Share held by them as joint holders.
 
41.8
No Dividend or other distribution shall bear interest against the Company.
 
41.9
Any Dividend or other distribution which cannot be paid to a Member and/or which remains unclaimed after six months from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable may, in the
 
K-28

  discretion of the Directors, be paid into a separate account in the Company’s name, provided that the Company shall not be constituted as a trustee in respect of that account and the Dividend or other distribution shall remain as a debt due to the Member. Any Dividend or other distribution which remains unclaimed after a period of six years from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable shall be forfeited and shall revert to the Company.
 
42
Capitalisation
The Directors may at any time capitalise any sum standing to the credit of any of the Company’s reserve accounts or funds (including the share premium account and capital redemption reserve fund) or any sum standing to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution; appropriate such sum to Members in the proportions in which such sum would have been divisible amongst such Members had the same been a distribution of profits by way of Dividend or other distribution; and apply such sum on their behalf in paying up in full unissued Shares for allotment and distribution credited as fully
paid-up
to and amongst them in the proportion aforesaid. In such event the Directors shall do all acts and things required to give effect to such capitalisation, with full power given to the Directors to make such provisions as they think fit in the case of Shares becoming distributable in fractions (including provisions whereby the benefit of fractional entitlements accrue to the Company rather than to the Members concerned). The Directors may authorise any person to enter on behalf of all of the Members interested into an agreement with the Company providing for such capitalisation and matters incidental or relating thereto and any agreement made under such authority shall be effective and binding on all such Members and the Company.

Such books of account must be retained for a minimum period of five years from the date on which they are prepared.

43.2
The Directors shall determine whether and to what extent and at what times and places and under what conditions or regulations the accounts and books of the Company or any of them shall be open to the inspection of Members not being Directors and no Member (not being a Director) shall have any right of inspecting any account or book or document of the Company except as conferred by Statute or authorised by the Directors or by the Company in general meeting.

  The composition and responsibilities of the Audit Committee shall comply with the rules and regulations of the Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law.

45.4
Notice of every general meeting shall be given in any manner authorised by the Articles to every holder of Shares carrying an entitlement to receive such notice on the record date for such meeting except that in the case of joint holders the notice shall be sufficient if given to the joint holder first named in the Register of Members and every person upon whom the ownership of a Share devolves by reason of his being a legal personal representative or a trustee in bankruptcy of a Member where the Member but for his death or bankruptcy would be entitled to receive notice of the meeting, and no other person shall be entitled to receive notices of general meetings.
 
46
Winding Up
 
46.1
If the Company shall be wound up, the liquidator shall apply the assets of the Company in satisfaction of creditors’ claims in such manner and order as such liquidator thinks fit. Subject to the rights attaching to any Shares, in a winding up:
 
  (a)
if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the Company’s issued share capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the Members in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them; or
 
  (b)
if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the Company’s issued share capital at the commencement of the winding up, the surplus shall be distributed amongst the Members in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them at the commencement of the winding up subject to a deduction from those Shares in respect of which there are monies due, of all monies payable to the Company for unpaid calls or otherwise.
 
46.2
If the Company shall be wound up the liquidator may, subject to the rights attaching to any Shares and with the approval of a Special Resolution of the Company and any other approval required by the Statute, divide amongst the Members in kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether such assets shall consist of property of the same kind or not) and may for that purpose value any assets and determine how the division shall be carried out as between the Members or different classes of Members. The liquidator may, with the like approval, vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the Members as the liquidator, with the like approval, shall think fit, but so that no Member shall be compelled to accept any asset upon which there is a liability.
 
47
Indemnity and Insurance
 
47.1
Every Director and Officer (which for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include auditors of the Company), together with every former Director and former Officer (each an “
Indemnified Person
”) shall be indemnified out of the assets of the Company against any liability, action, proceeding, claim, demand, costs, damages or expenses, including legal expenses, whatsoever which they or any of them may incur as a result of any act or failure to act in carrying out their functions other than such liability (if any) that they may incur by reason of their own actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default. No Indemnified Person shall be liable to the Company for any loss or damage incurred by the Company as a result (whether direct or indirect) of the carrying out of their functions unless that liability arises through the actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default of such Indemnified Person. No person shall be found to have committed actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default under this Article unless or until a court of competent jurisdiction shall have made a finding to that effect.
 
K-31

If it shall be determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication that such Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such judgment, costs or expenses, then such party shall not be indemnified with respect to such judgment, costs or expenses and any advancement shall be returned to the Company (without interest) by the Indemnified Person.

only the Class B Shares shall carry the right to vote on any resolution of the shareholders to approve any transfer by way of continuation pursuant to this Article (including any Special Resolution required to amend the constitutional documents of the Company or to adopt new constitutional documents of the Company, in each case, as a result of the Company approving a transfer by way of continuation in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands); and

Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company shall either:
 
  (a)
submit such Business Combination to its Members for approval; or
 
  (b)
provide Members with the opportunity to have their Shares repurchased by means of a tender offer for a
per-Share
repurchase price payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of such Business Combination, including interest earned on the Trust Account (net of taxes paid or payable, if any), divided by the number of then issued Public Shares, provided that the Company shall not repurchase Public Shares in an amount that would exceed the Redemption Limitation. Such obligation to repurchase Shares is subject to the completion of the proposed Business Combination to which it relates.
 
51.3
If the Company initiates any tender offer in accordance with Rule
13e-4
and Regulation 14E of the Exchange Act in connection with a proposed Business Combination, it shall file tender offer documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to completing such Business Combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about such Business Combination and the redemption rights as is required under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act. If, alternatively, the Company holds a general meeting to approve a proposed Business Combination, the Company will conduct any redemptions in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, and not pursuant to the tender offer rules, and file proxy materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
 
51.4
At a general meeting called for the purposes of approving a Business Combination pursuant to this Article, in the event that such Business Combination is approved by Ordinary Resolution, the Company shall be authorised to consummate such Business Combination, provided that the Company shall not consummate such Business Combination unless the Company has net tangible assets of at least US$5,000,001 immediately prior to or upon such consummation of, or any greater net tangible asset or cash requirement that may be contained in the agreement relating to, such Business Combination (the “
Redemption Limitation
”).
 
51.5
Any Member holding Public Shares who is not the Sponsor, a Founder, Officer or Director may, at least two business days’ prior to any vote on a Business Combination, elect to have their Public Shares redeemed for cash, in accordance with any applicable requirements provided for in the related proxy materials (the “
IPO Redemption
”), provided that no such Member acting together with any Affiliate of his or any other person with whom he is acting in concert or as a partnership, limited partnership, syndicate, or other group for the purposes of acquiring, holding, or disposing of Shares may exercise this redemption right with respect to more than 15 per cent of the Public Shares in the aggregate without the prior written consent of the Company and provided further that any beneficial holder of Public Shares on whose behalf a redemption right is being exercised must identify itself to the Company in connection with any redemption election in order to validly redeem such Public Shares. If so demanded, the Company shall pay any such redeeming Member, regardless of whether he is voting for or against such proposed Business Combination, a
per-Share
redemption price payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including interest earned on the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then issued Public Shares (such redemption price being referred to herein as the “
Redemption Price
”), but only in the event that the applicable proposed Business Combination is approved and consummated. The Company shall not redeem Public Shares in an amount that would exceed the Redemption Limitation.
 
51.6
A Member may not withdraw a Redemption Notice once submitted to the Company unless the Directors determine (in their sole discretion) to permit the withdrawal of such redemption request (which they may do in whole or in part).
 
K-33

In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 24 months from the consummation of the IPO, or such later time as the Members may approve in accordance with the Articles, the Company shall:
 
  (a)
cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up;
 
  (b)
as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a
per-Share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company (less taxes paid or payable, if any, and up to US$100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then Public Shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish public Members’ rights as Members (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and
 
  (c)
as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining Members and the Directors, liquidate and dissolve,
subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of Applicable Law.
 
51.8
In the event that any amendment is made to the Articles:
 
  (a)
to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with a Business Combination or redeem 100 per cent of the Public Shares if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 24 months from the consummation of the IPO, or such later time as the Members may approve in accordance with the Articles; or
 
  (b)
with respect to any other provision relating to Members’ rights or
pre-Business
Combination activity,
each holder of Public Shares who is not the Sponsor, a Founder, Officer or Director shall be provided with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares upon the approval or effectiveness of any such amendment at a
per-Share
price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes paid or payable) earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares. The Company’s ability to provide such redemption in this Article is subject to the Redemption Limitation.
 
51.9
A holder of Public Shares shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust Account only in the event of an IPO Redemption, a repurchase of Shares by means of a tender offer, a redemption in connection with an amendment to the Articles or a distribution of the Trust Account. In no other circumstance shall a holder of Public Shares have any right or interest of any kind in the Trust Account.
 
51.10
After the issue of Public Shares, and prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company shall not issue additional Shares or any other securities that would entitle the holders thereof to:
 
  (a)
receive funds from the Trust Account; or
 
  (b)
vote as a class with Public Shares on the Company’s initial Business Combination or on any other proposal presented to shareholders prior to or in connection with the completion of an initial Business Combination or (b) to approve an amendment to the Memorandum or the Articles to (x) extend the time the Company has to consummate a business combination beyond 24 months from the closing of the IPO or (y) amend the foregoing provisions.
 
51.11

51.12

A Business Combination must not be effectuated with another blank cheque company or a similar company with nominal operations.
 
51.13
The Company may enter into a Business Combination with a target business that is Affiliated with the Sponsor, a Founder, a Director or an Officer. In the event the Company seeks to consummate a Business Combination with a target that is Affiliated with the Sponsor, a Founder, a Director or an Officer, the Company, or a committee of Independent Directors, will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another valuation or appraisal firm that regularly renders fairness opinions on the type of target business the Company is seeking to acquire that is a member of the United States Financial Industry Regulatory Authority or an independent accounting firm that such a Business Combination is fair to the Company from a financial point of view.

Business Opportunities
 
53.1
To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, no individual serving as a Director or an Officer (“
Management
”) shall have any duty, except and to the extent expressly assumed by contract, to refrain from engaging directly or indirectly in the same or similar business activities or lines of business as the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Company renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for Management, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other. Except to the extent expressly assumed by contract, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, Management shall have no duty to communicate or offer any such corporate opportunity to the Company and shall not be liable to the Company or its Members for breach of any fiduciary duty as a Member, Director and/or Officer solely by reason of the fact that such party pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, himself or herself, directs such corporate opportunity to another person, or does not communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Company.
 
53.2
Except as provided elsewhere in this Article, the Company hereby renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate opportunity for both the Company and Management, about which a Director and/or Officer who is also a member of Management acquires knowledge.
 
53.3
To the extent a court might hold that the conduct of any activity related to a corporate opportunity that is renounced in this Article to be a breach of duty to the Company or its Members, the Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any and all claims and causes of action that the Company may have for such activities. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the provisions of this Article apply equally to activities conducted in the future and that have been conducted in the past.

PART II: INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
Item 20. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Cayman Islands Companies Act does not limit the extent to which a company’s memorandum and articles of association may provide for indemnification of officers and directors. However, such provision may be held by the Cayman Islands courts to be unenforceable, to the extent it seeks to indemnify or exculpate a fiduciary in respect of their actual fraud or willful default, or for the consequences of committing a crime. Altimar II’s Existing Organizational Documents provide for indemnification of its officers and directors to the maximum extent permitted by law, including for any liability incurred in their capacities as such, except through their own actual fraud, willful default or willful neglect. Altimar II has also entered into agreements with its directors and officers to provide contractual indemnification in addition to the indemnification provided for in our amended and restated memorandum and articles of association. Altimar II has also purchased a policy of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance that insures its officers and directors against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment in some circumstances and insures Altimar II against its obligations to indemnify its officers and directors.
Such limitation of liability and indemnification does not affect the availability of equitable remedies. In addition, Altimar II has been advised that, in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
Fathom is governed by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (the “
DGCL
”). Section 145 of the DGCL (“
Section
 145
”) provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise. The indemnification may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such person acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful. Section 145 also provides that a Delaware corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of such corporation, under the same conditions, except that such indemnification is limited to expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person, and except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if such person is adjudged to be liable to such corporation. Where an officer or director of a corporation is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above, or any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation must indemnify that person against the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) which such officer or director actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith.
Section 145 further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under Section 145.
The Registrant’s Proposed Charter and Proposed Bylaws provide that Fathom will indemnify to the fullest extent permitted by law any person made or threatened to be made a party to an action or proceeding, whether
 
II-1

criminal, civil, administrative or investigative, by reason of the fact that he, his testator or intestate is or was a director, officer or employee of Fathom or any predecessor of Fathom, or serves or served at any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise as a director, officer, employee or agent at the request of Fathom or any predecessor of Fathom.
The Registrant’s Proposed Bylaws provide for mandatory indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by DGCL against all expenses (including attorney’s fees), judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes or penalties and amounts paid in settlements.
The Registrant’s Proposed Charter eliminates the liability of a director of Fathom to the fullest extent under applicable law. Pursuant to Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, a corporation may eliminate the personal liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liabilities arising (i) from any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) from acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL, or (iv) from any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
These provisions may be held not to be enforceable for certain violations of the federal securities laws of the United States.
The Registrant’s directors and executive officers are covered by insurance maintained by Fathom against specified liabilities for actions taken in their capacities as such, including liabilities under the Securities Act. In addition, Fathom has entered into contracts with its directors and executive officers providing indemnification of such directors and executive officers by Fathom to the fullest extent permitted by law, subject to certain limited exceptions.

Item 22. Undertakings
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
 
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: (i) to include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement (notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in the volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement); and (iii) to include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
 
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
 
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
 
(4)
That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of securities, in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser: (i) any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424; (ii) any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant; (iii) the portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and (iv) any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
 
(5)
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
 
(6)
That, prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this registration statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the registrant undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other items of the applicable form.
 
II-5

(7)
That every prospectus (i) that is filed pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until such amendment has become effective, and that for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
 
(8)
To respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this Form, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first-class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.
 
(9)
To supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of, and included in, this registration statement when it became effective.
 
(10)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers, and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer, or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit, or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer, or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Altimar Acquisition Corp. II

40 West 57th Street, 33rd Floor

New York, New York 10019

Re:     Altimar Acquisition Corp. II Registration Statement on Form S-4

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to Altimar Acquisition Corp. II, a Cayman Islands company (the “Company”), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-4, as amended (the “Registration Statement”), of the Company, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and the rules and regulations thereunder (the “Rules”). You have asked us to furnish our opinion as to the legality of the securities being registered under the Registration Statement. The Registration Statement relates to the registration under the Act of (i) up to 151,525,000 shares (the “Shares”) of Fathom Digital Manufacturing Corporation’s (“Fathom”) Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Fathom Class A Common Stock”) and (ii) 18,525,000 warrants to purchase Fathom Class A common stock (the “Warrants”), in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2021 (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among the Company, Fathom Holdco, LLC (“Fathom OpCo”), Rapid Merger Sub, LLC, Rapid Blocker 1 Merger Sub, LLC, Rapid Blocker 2 Merger Sub, LLC, Rapid Blocker Merger 3 LLC, CORE Fund I Blocker-5 LLC, CORE Fund I

Blocker-2 LLC and SG (MCT) Blocker, LLC, providing for the merger of Fathom OpCo with and into the Company, with Fathom Digital Manufacturing Corporation continuing as the surviving entity.

The Shares consist of: i) 34,500,000 shares of Fathom Class A common stock resulting from the automatic conversion of 34,500,000 of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A ordinary shares”) by operation of law, on a one-for-one basis, into 34,500,000 shares of Fathom Class A common stock upon effectiveness of the Domestication (such resulting shares of Fathom Class A common stock, the “Domestication Class A Shares”), (ii) up to 8,625,000 shares of Fathom Class A common stock resulting from the automatic conversion of the Company’s issued and outstanding Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B ordinary shares”) by operation of law, on a one-for-one basis, into shares of Fathom Class C common stock (“Fathom Class C common stock”) upon effectiveness of the Domestication and in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement, which shares of Fathom Class C common stock shall subsequently automatically convert into shares of Fathom Class A common stock (such resulting shares of Fathom Class A common stock, the “Domestication Class B Shares” and together with the “Domestication Class A Shares,” the “Domestication Shares”) and (iii) up to 108,400,000 shares of Fathom Class A common stock issuable as merger consideration pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement (such shares, the “Merger Consideration Shares”).

In connection with and immediately prior to the consummation of the business combination contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination”), the Company will change its jurisdiction of incorporation (the “Domestication”) by effecting a deregistration under the Cayman Islands Companies Law (2021 Revision) and a domestication under Section 388 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) by filing a certificate of corporate domestication (the “Certificate of Domestication”) simultaneously with a certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”), in each case in respect of the Company with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware (the “DE Secretary of State”). The Domestication is expected to be effectuated immediately prior to the consummation of the Business Combination (the “Closing”) and is subject to the approval of the shareholders of the Company. We herein refer to the Company following effectiveness of the Domestication and simultaneous with the Closing as Fathom Digital Manufacturing Corporation.

Upon effectiveness of the Domestication and in accordance with the Business Combination Agreement, i) the Company’s currently issued and outstanding Class A ordinary shares will automatically convert by operation of law, on a one-for-one basis, into shares of Fathom Class A common stock and ii) the Company’s issued and outstanding Class B ordinary shares will automatically convert by operation of law, on a one-for-one basis, into shares of Fathom Class C common stock, subject to forfeiture by the Altimar II Founders (as defined in the Registration Statement) of a portion of their shares of Class C common stock as contemplated by the Business Combination

Agreement. The resulting shares of Fathom Class C common stock will then subsequently automatically convert into shares of Fathom Class A common stock. Similarly, all of the Company’s outstanding warrants will become warrants to acquire the corresponding shares of Fathom Class A common stock and no other changes will be made to the terms of any outstanding warrants as a result of the Domestication. The Business Combination is subject to satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions, including, among others, approval and adoption of the Business Combination Agreement by the Company’s shareholders as well as completion of the Domestication.

In connection with the furnishing of this opinion, we have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of the following documents (collectively, the “Documents”):

 

  1.

the Registration Statement;

 

  2.

the Business Combination Agreement;

 

  3.

the form of Certificate of Incorporation of Fathom to be effective upon the Closing;

 

  4.

the form of bylaws of Fathom to be effective upon the Closing (the “Bylaws”); and

 

  5.

the Warrant Agreement, dated as of February 4, 2021, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Warrant Agreement”).

In addition, we have examined originals or copies of such corporate records of the Company that we have considered appropriate; resolutions of the board of directors of the Company relating to, among other things, the Registration Statement, the Business Combination and the Domestication, certified by the Company; and such other certificates, agreements and documents that we deemed relevant and necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below. We have also relied upon the factual matters contained in the representations and warranties of the Company made in the Documents and upon certificates of public officials and the officers of the Company.

We also have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of such records of the Company and such agreements, certificates and receipts of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Company and others, and such other documents, certificates and records as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth below.

In our examination of the documents referred to above, we have assumed, without independent investigation, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all individuals who have executed any of the documents reviewed by us, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as certified, photostatic, reproduced or conformed copies of

valid existing agreements or other documents, the authenticity of all the latter documents and that the statements regarding matters of fact in the certificates, records, agreements, instruments and documents that we have examined are accurate and complete. We have further assumed that, before the issuance of the Shares, the conditions to consummating the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, including with respect to the filing procedure for effecting a domestication under Section 388 of the DGCL, will have been satisfied or duly waived.

In addition to the foregoing, for the purpose of rendering our opinions as expressed herein, we have assumed that:

 

  1.

Prior to effecting the Domestication: (i) the Registration Statement, as finally amended, will have become effective under the Act; (ii) the shareholders of the Company will have approved, among other things, the Business Combination Agreement and the Domestication; and (iii) all other necessary action will have been taken under the applicable laws of the Cayman Islands to authorize and permit the Domestication, and any and all consents, approvals and authorizations from applicable Cayman Islands governmental and regulatory authorities required to authorize and permit the Domestication will have been obtained;

 

  2.

The current draft of the Certificate of Incorporation, in the form thereof submitted for our review, without alteration or amendment (other than identifying the appropriate date), will be duly authorized and executed and thereafter be duly filed with the DE Secretary of State in accordance with Section 103 of the DGCL, that no other certificate or document, other than the Certificate of Domestication as required under Section 388 of the DGCL, has been, or prior to the filing of the Certificate of Incorporation will be, filed by or in respect of the Company with the DE Secretary of State and that the Company will pay all fees and other charges required to be paid in connection with the filing of the Certificate of Incorporation; and

 

  3.

Each Class A ordinary share and Class B ordinary share outstanding immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Domestication was duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable under the laws of the Cayman Islands and has been entered in the register of members (shareholders).

Based upon the above, and subject to the stated assumptions, exceptions and qualifications, we are of the opinion that:

 

  1.

Upon the effectiveness of the Domestication, the Domestication Shares will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.


LOGO

  2.

The Merger Consideration Shares will have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of Fathom and, when issued, delivered and paid for as contemplated in the Registration Statement and in accordance with the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, the Merger Consideration Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

  3.

Upon effectiveness of the Domestication, each Warrant will be a valid and binding obligation of Fathom, enforceable against Fathom in accordance with its terms, except that (i) the enforceability of the Warrants may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance or transfer, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and possible judicial action giving effect to governmental actions relating to persons or transactions or foreign laws affecting creditors’ rights and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) and (ii) we express no opinion as to the validity, legally binding effect or enforceability of Section 4.10 of the Warrant Agreement or any related provision in the Warrants that requires or relates to adjustments to the conversion rate in an amount that a court would determine in the circumstances under applicable law to be commercially unreasonable or a penalty or forfeiture.

The opinions expressed above are limited to the laws of the State of New York and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware. Our opinion is rendered only with respect to the laws, and the rules, regulations and orders under those laws, that are currently in effect.

We hereby consent to use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of our name under the heading “Legal Matters” contained in the prospectus included in the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we come within the category of persons whose consent is required by the Securities Act or the Rules.

Altimar Acquisition Corp. II

40 West 57th Street, 33rd Floor

New York, New York 10019

Re:     United States Federal Income Tax Considerations

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as United States federal income tax counsel for Altimar Acquisition Corp. II, a Cayman Islands company (the “Company”), in connection with the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of July 15, 2021 (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among the Company, Fathom Holdco, LLC, Rapid Merger Sub, LLC, Rapid Blocker 1 Merger Sub, LLC, Rapid Blocker 2 Merger Sub, LLC, Rapid Blocker 3 Merger Sub, LLC, CORE Fund I Blocker-5 LLC, CORE Fund I Blocker-2 LLC and SG (MCT) Blocker, LLC, which, among other things, provides for the Company’s domestication from a Cayman Islands exempted company to a Delaware corporation pursuant to Section 338 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended, and Article 206 of the Cayman Islands Companies Law (2021 Revision) (the “Domestication”). This opinion is being delivered in connection with the Registration Statement (File No. 333-259639) of the Company on Form S-4 filed on September 20, 2021 with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as amended and supplemented


LOGO

 

through the date hereof (the “Registration Statement”). Capitalized terms not defined herein have the meanings specified in the Business Combination Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

In connection with this opinion, we have examined and relied on originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction, of (i) the Business Combination Agreement, (ii) the Registration Statement, (iii) the representation letter of the Company delivered to us for purposes of this opinion (the “Representation Letter”), and (iv) such other documents, certificates and records as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinion set forth herein. We have not, however, undertaken any independent investigation of any factual matter set forth in any of the foregoing.

In rendering our opinion, we have assumed, without any independent investigation or examination thereof, that (i) the Domestication will be consummated in the manner described in the Registration Statement and the business combination will be consummated in the manner described in the Registration Statement and the Business Combination Agreement, each will be effective under applicable law, and none of the terms or conditions contained in either the Registration Statement or the Business Combination Agreement will be waived or modified, (ii) the facts relating to (A) the Domestication are accurately and completely reflected in the Registration Statement and (B) the business combination are accurately and completely reflected in the Registration Statement and the Business Combination Agreement, (iii) the Business Combination Agreement, Registration Statement and all documents described therein represent the entire understanding between the parties to the Business Combination Agreement with respect to the Domestication and related transactions, (iv) any representations made in the Representation Letter are true, complete and correct and will remain true, complete and correct at all times up to and including the effective time of the Domestication, (v) any representations made in the Representation Letter subject to qualification relating to the knowledge, belief, expectation or intent of any party are true, complete and correct and will remain true, complete and correct at all times up to and including the effective time of the Domestication, in each case, without such qualification and (vi) the Company will not take any position on any federal, state, or local income or franchise tax return, or take any other tax reporting position that is inconsistent with this opinion. Our opinion assumes and is expressly conditioned on, among other things, the initial and continuing accuracy of the facts, information, covenants, representations and warranties set forth in the documents referred to above.

For purposes of our opinion, we have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified, conformed, photostatic or electronic copies, and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. We have assumed that the Business Combination Agreement and such other documents, certificates, and records are, and will continue to be, duly authorized, valid, and enforceable.

The opinion set forth below is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), administrative rulings, judicial decisions, Treasury regulations

and other applicable authorities, all as in effect on the effective date of the Registration Statement. The statutory provisions, regulations, and interpretations upon which our opinion is based are subject to change, and such changes could apply retroactively. Any change in law or the facts regarding the Domestication or any of the transactions related thereto, or any inaccuracy in the facts or assumptions on which we relied, could affect the continuing validity of the opinion set forth below. We assume no responsibility to inform you of any such changes or inaccuracy that may occur or come to our attention. The opinion set forth herein has no binding effect on the United States Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) or the courts of the United States. No assurance can be given that, if the matter were contested, a court would agree with the opinion set forth herein.

Based upon the foregoing and subject to the assumptions, exceptions, limitations and qualifications set forth herein and in the Registration Statement under the heading “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations,” we are of the opinion that, for United States federal income tax purposes, the Domestication should qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code. We express no opinion on any other potential U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Domestication (including tax consequences pursuant to Section 367 of the Code or the passive foreign investment company rules).

Except as set forth above, we express no opinion as to the tax consequences to any party, whether federal, state, local or foreign, of any transactions related to the Domestication or contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement and this opinion may not be relied upon except with respect to the consequences specifically discussed herein. Furthermore, our opinion is based on current U.S. federal income tax law and administrative practice, and we do not undertake to advise you as to any changes after the date hereof of the Domestication in U.S. federal income tax law that may affect our opinion. In addition, there can be no assurance that changes in the law will not take place which could affect the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Domestication or that contrary positions may not be taken by the IRS. To the extent any of the representations, warranties, statements and assumptions material to our opinion and upon which we have relied are not accurate and complete in all material respects at all the relevant times, our opinion would be adversely affected and should not be relied upon.

We are furnishing this letter in our capacity as United States federal income tax counsel to the Company. This opinion has been prepared in connection with the filing of the Registration Statement and may not be relied upon for any other purpose without our prior written consent.

We hereby consent to use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of our name under the caption “Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations” and “Legal Matters” contained in the Registration Statement. In giving such consent, we do not thereby admit that we are in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations thereunder.

(a) result in any breach of corporate benefit, financial assistance, capital preservation, fraudulent preference, thin capitalization rules, retention of title claims or any other law or regulation (or analogous restriction) of the jurisdiction of organization of such Person;

(b) result in any risk to the officers of such Person of contravention of their fiduciary duties and/or of civil or criminal liability;

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any reference in this Agreement to any Loan Document shall mean such document as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided that, if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate

 

47


the effect of any change occurring after the Effective Date in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith; provided further that, notwithstanding the foregoing, upon and following the acquisition of any business or new Subsidiary in accordance with this Agreement, in each case that would not constitute a “significant subsidiary” for purposes of Regulation S-X, financial items and information with respect to such newly-acquired business or Subsidiary that are required to be included in determining any financial calculations and other financial ratios contained herein for any period prior to such acquisition shall not be required to be in accordance with GAAP so long as the Borrower is able to reasonably estimate pro forma adjustments in respect of such acquisition for such prior periods, and in each case such estimates are made in good faith and are factually supportable. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, without giving effect to (a) any election under Accounting Standards Codification 825-10-25 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries at “fair value”, as defined therein, (b) any treatment of Indebtedness in respect of convertible debt instruments under Accounting Standards Codification 470-20 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any such Indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof and (c) any change to GAAP occurring after December 31, 2017, as a result of the adoption of any proposals set forth in the Proposed Accounting Standards Update, Leases (Topic 842), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on May 16, 2013, or any other proposals issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in connection therewith, in each case if such change would require treating any lease (or similar arrangement conveying the right to use) as a Capital Lease Obligation (or a finance lease) where such lease (or similar arrangement) was not required to be so treated under GAAP as in effect on December 31, 2017. Any reference herein to a merger, transfer, consolidation, amalgamation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to a division of or by a limited liability company, or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited liability company (or the unwinding of such a division or allocation), as if it were a merger, transfer, consolidation, amalgamation, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, as applicable, to, of or with a separate Person. Any division of a limited liability company shall constitute a separate Person hereunder (and each division of any limited liability company that is a Subsidiary, joint venture or any other like term shall also constitute such a Person or entity).

SECTION 1.03. Effectuation of Transfers. Each of the representations and warranties of Holdings and the Borrower contained in this Agreement (and all corresponding definitions) are made after giving effect to the Transactions, unless the context otherwise requires.

SECTION 1.04. Status of Obligations. In the event that the Borrower or any other Loan Party shall at any time issue or have outstanding any Subordinated Indebtedness, the Borrower shall take or cause such other Loan Party to take all such actions as shall be necessary to cause the Secured Obligations to constitute senior indebtedness (however denominated) in respect of such Subordinated Indebtedness and to enable the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to have and exercise any payment blockage or other remedies available or potentially available to holders of senior indebtedness under the terms of such Subordinated Indebtedness. Without limiting the foregoing, the Secured Obligations are hereby designated as “senior indebtedness” and as “designated senior indebtedness” and words of similar import under and in respect of any indenture or other agreement or instrument under which such Subordinated Indebtedness is

 

48


outstanding and are further given all such other designations as shall be required under the terms of any such Subordinated Indebtedness in order that the Lenders may have and exercise any payment blockage or other remedies available or potentially available to holders of senior indebtedness under the terms of such Subordinated Indebtedness.

SECTION 1.05. Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on a Loan may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Regulators have signaled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of these interest rate benchmarks and, as a result, such interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable laws and regulations, may be permanently discontinued, and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change. The London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) publicly announced that: (a) immediately after December 31, 2021, publication of the one-week and two-month Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease, immediately after June 30, 2023, publication of the overnight and 12-month Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease and immediately after June 30, 2023, the one-month, three-month and six-month Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to the FCA’s consideration of the case, be provided on a synthetic basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored. There is no assurance that dates announced by the FCA will not change or that the administrator of LIBOR and/or regulators will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition or characteristics of LIBOR or the currencies and/or tenors for which LIBOR is published. Each party to this agreement should consult its own advisors to stay informed of any such developments. Public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of LIBOR. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-In Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, Sections 2.14(b)(i) and 2.14(b)(ii) provide a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.14(b)(iv), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Eurodollar Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to LIBOR or other rates in the definition of the term “LIBO Rate” or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof including (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.14 (b)(i) or 2.14(b)(ii), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-In Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.14(b)(iii), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the LIBO Rate or have the same volume or liquidity as did LIBOR prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower.

SECTION 1.06. Leverage Ratios. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for purposes of calculating any leverage ratio herein in connection with the incurrence of any Indebtedness, (a) there shall be no netting of the cash proceeds proposed to be received in connection with the incurrence of such Indebtedness and (b) to the extent the Indebtedness to be incurred is revolving Indebtedness, such incurred revolving Indebtedness (or if applicable, the portion (and only such portion) of the increased commitments thereunder) shall be treated as fully drawn.

 

49


SECTION 1.07. Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

SECTION 1.08. Negative Covenant Compliance. For purposes of determining whether the Borrower and the Subsidiaries comply with any exception to Article VI (other than Sections 6.10 and 6.11) where compliance with any such exception is based on a financial ratio or metric being satisfied as of a particular point in time, it is understood that (a) compliance shall be measured at the time when the relevant event is undertaken, as such financial ratios and metrics are intended to be “incurrence” tests and not “maintenance” tests, and (b) correspondingly, any such ratio and metric shall only prohibit the Borrower and the Subsidiaries from creating, incurring, assuming, suffering to exist or making, as the case may be, any new, for example, Liens, Indebtedness or Investments, but shall not result in any previously permitted, for example, Liens, Indebtedness or Investments ceasing to be permitted hereunder. For avoidance of doubt, with respect to determining whether the Borrower and the Subsidiaries comply with any negative covenant in Article VI (other than Sections 6.10 and 6.11), to the extent that any obligation or transaction could be attributable to more than one exception to any such negative covenant, the Borrower may elect at the time of the making thereof to categorize all or any portion of such obligation or transaction to any one or more exceptions to such negative covenant that permit such obligation or transaction.

ARTICLE II

The failure of any Lender to make any Loan

 

50


required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. Any Swingline Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.04.

(b) Subject to Section 2.14, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan (and in the case of an Affiliate, the provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 shall apply to such Affiliate to the same extent as to such Lender); provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum; provided that (i) a Eurodollar Borrowing that results from a continuation of an outstanding Eurodollar Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to such outstanding Borrowing and (ii) a Eurodollar Revolving Facility Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Revolving Facility Commitments or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(e). At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum; provided that an ABR Revolving Facility Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Revolving Facility Commitments or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(e). Each Swingline Borrowing shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum. Borrowings of more than one Type and under more than one Facility may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of (A) six (6) Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding under the Term Loan Facility and (B) six (6) Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding under the Revolving Facility.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Revolving Facility Borrowing or Term Loan Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

SECTION 2.03. Requests for Borrowings. To request a Revolving Facility Borrowing and/or a Term Loan Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request (a) by irrevocable written notice (via written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days (or, in the case of any Borrowing to be made on the Effective Date, on two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice), in each case before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) by irrevocable written notice (via a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing.

Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.04. Swingline Loans.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender may agree, but shall have no obligation, to make Swingline Loans in Dollars to the Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Facility Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans exceeding the Swingline Sublimit, (ii) the Swingline Lender’s Revolving Facility Credit Exposure exceeding its Revolving Facility Commitment or (iii) the Total Revolving Facility Credit Exposures exceeding the total Revolving Facility Commitments; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Borrowing. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

(b) To request a Swingline Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender of such request by irrevocable written notice (via a Swingline Borrowing Request), not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time on the day of the proposed Swingline Borrowing. Each such notice and Swingline Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount of the requested Swingline Borrowing, (iii) the term of such Swingline Loan and (iv) the location and number of the account to which funds are to be disbursed. The Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan to be made by it hereunder in accordance with Section 2.02(a) on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account designated by the Borrower for such purpose (or, in the case of a Swingline Borrowing made to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e), by remittance to the Issuing Bank).

(c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent require the Revolving Facility Lenders to acquire participations in all or a portion of the outstanding Swingline Loans made by it. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of such Swingline Loans in which the Revolving Facility Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each such Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Facility Lender hereby

 

52


absolutely and unconditionally agrees, promptly upon receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent (and in any event, if such notice is received by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on a Business Day, no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Business Day and if received after 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on a Business Day, no later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately succeeding Business Day), to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender such Revolving Facility Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans in Dollars. Each Revolving Facility Lender acknowledges and agrees that its respective obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Facility Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Facility Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Facility Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph (c), and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Facility Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(d) The Swingline Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Swingline Lender and the successor Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Swingline Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid interest accrued for the account of the replaced Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.13(a). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Swingline Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Swingline Lender, or to such successor and all previous Swingline Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of a Swingline Lender hereunder, the replaced Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to its replacement, but shall not be required to make additional Swingline Loans.

(e) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Swingline Lender, the Swingline Lender may resign as a Swingline Lender at any time upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Swingline Lender shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.04(d) above.

SECTION 2.05. Letters of Credit.

(a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars for its own account or for the account of any Subsidiary of the Borrower in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Facility Availability Period and prior to the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. The Borrower unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that, in connection with any Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Subsidiary as provided in the first sentence of this paragraph, the Borrower will be fully responsible for the reimbursement of L/C Disbursements in accordance with the terms hereof, the payment of interest thereon and the payment of fees due under Section 2.12(b) to the same extent as if it were the sole account party in respect of such Letter of Credit (the Borrower hereby irrevocably waiving any defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of the obligations of such a Subsidiary that is an account party in respect of any such Letter of Credit). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Issuing Bank shall have no obligation hereunder to issue, and shall not issue, any Letter of Credit (i) the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (A) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any Sanctions, except to the extent permitted for a Person required to comply with Sanctions, (B) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement or (C) in any manner that would result in a violation of one or more policies of the Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally or (ii) if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or if any law applicable to such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or require that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable on the Effective Date and that such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment or Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment or extension (other than an automatic extension in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section) of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or fax (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (two (2) Business Days in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to issue, amend or extend such Letter of Credit. In addition, as a condition to any such Letter of Credit issuance, the Borrower shall have entered into a continuing agreement (or other letter of credit agreement) for the issuance of letters of credit and/or shall submit a letter of credit application, in each case, as required by the Issuing Bank and using the Issuing Bank’s standard form (each, including all letter of credit applications and other agreements relating the Letters of Credit, a “Letter of Credit Agreement”). In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit Agreement, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment or extension, (i) the Revolving L/C Exposure shall not exceed U.S.$5,000,000, (ii) the Total Revolving Facility Credit Exposures shall not exceed the total Revolving Facility Commitments and (iii) each Lender’s Revolving Facility Credit Exposure shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary contained herein, no Issuing Bank

 

54


shall be obligated to issue or modify any Letter of Credit if, immediately after giving effect thereto, the outstanding Revolving L/C Exposure in respect of all Letters of Credit issued by such Person and its Affiliates would exceed such Issuing Bank’s L/C Sublimit. Without limiting the foregoing and without affecting the limitations contained herein, it is understood and agreed that the Borrower may from time to time request that an Issuing Bank issue Letters of Credit in excess of its individual L/C Sublimit in effect at the time of such request, and each Issuing Bank agrees to consider any such request in good faith. Any Letter of Credit so issued by an Issuing Bank in excess of its individual L/C Sublimit then in effect shall nonetheless constitute a Letter of Credit for all purposes of the Credit Agreement, and shall not affect the L/C Sublimit of any other Issuing Bank, subject to the limitations on the aggregate Revolving L/C Exposure set forth in clause (i) of this Section 2.05(b).

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire (or be subject to termination by notice from the Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereof) at or prior to the close of business on the date specified by the Borrower in its request therefor, which date shall be no later than the earlier of (i) the date that is 12 months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any extension thereof, 12 months after such extension) or such longer period of time as may be agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and (ii) unless cash collateralized or backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank, the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date; provided that any Letter of Credit may provide for automatic extension thereof for additional periods of up to 12 months or such longer period of time as may be agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph (c)).

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Revolving Facility Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Facility Lender, and each Revolving Facility Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Facility Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Facility Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Revolving Facility Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason, including after the Maturity Date. Each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Facility Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments.

(e) Reimbursement. If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent in Dollars an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that such L/C Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such L/C Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Facility Borrowing or a Swingline Borrowing or a Eurodollar Revolving Loan in the amount of such L/C Disbursement and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s

 

55


obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Facility Borrowing or Swingline Borrowing or Eurodollar Revolving Loan. If the Borrower fails to reimburse any L/C Disbursement when due, then the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Issuing Bank and each other Revolving Facility Lender of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower and, in the case of a Revolving Facility Lender, such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Facility Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, its Revolving Facility Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Facility Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank in Dollars, the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Facility Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Facility Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any L/C Disbursement (other than the funding of an ABR Revolving Loan or a Swingline Borrowing or a Eurodollar Revolving Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) any payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder; provided that, in each case, payment by the Issuing Bank shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction). Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by (i) the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof or (ii) the Issuing Bank’s refusal to issue a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as determined in a final and nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination and each refusal to issue a Letter of Credit. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on

 

56


their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank for any Letter of Credit shall, within the time allowed by applicable law or the specific terms of the Letter of Credit following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by fax or electronic mail) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make a L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Facility Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement.

(h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank for any Letter of Credit shall make any L/C Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such L/C Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such L/C Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if such L/C Disbursement is not reimbursed by the Borrower when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(c) shall apply; provided further that any L/C Disbursement that is reimbursed after the date such L/C Disbursement is required to be reimbursed under paragraph (e) of this Section, (A) be payable in Dollars, (B) bear interest at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans or Eurodollar Revolving Loans, and (C) Section 2.13(c) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse the Issuing Bank for such L/C Disbursement shall be for the account of such Revolving Facility Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. (i) The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (A) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (B) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of the Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding and issued by it prior to such replacement but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or extend or otherwise amend any existing Letter of Credit.

(ii) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank, the Issuing Bank may resign as the Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, the resigning Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.05(i)(i) above.

 

57


(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, (i) in the case of an Event of Default described in Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i), on the Business Day or (ii) in the case of any other Event of Default, on the third (3rd) Business Day, in each case, following the date on which the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Facility Lenders with Revolving L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total Revolving L/C Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 105% of the Revolving L/C Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i), the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind. The Borrower also shall deposit cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph as and to the extent required by Section 2.11(b). Each such deposit pursuant to this paragraph or pursuant to Section 2.11(b) shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account and the Borrower hereby grants the Administrative Agent a security interest in such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of (i) for so long as an Event of Default shall be continuing, the Administrative Agent and (ii) at any other time, the Borrower, in each case, in Permitted Investments and at the risk and expense of the Borrower, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which the Issuing Bank has not been reimbursed, together with related fees, costs and customary processing charges, and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the Revolving L/C Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Lenders with Revolving L/C Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total Revolving L/C Exposure), be applied to satisfy other Secured Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder pursuant to Section 2.11(b), such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower as and to the extent that, after giving effect to such return, the Borrower would remain in compliance with Section 2.11(b) and no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

(k) Revolving L/C Exposure Determination. Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount or stated amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the amount of such Letter of Credit available to be drawn at such time; provided that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Letter of Credit Agreement related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the available amount thereof, the amount or stated amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the maximum amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum amount is available to be drawn at such time.

(l) Issuing Bank Reports to the Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, including all issuances, extensions and amendments, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Bank issues, amends or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment or extension, and the stated amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each

 

58


Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any L/C Disbursement, the date and amount of such L/C Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails to reimburse an L/C Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such L/C Disbursement, and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

SECTION 2.06. Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof solely by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. Except in respect of the provisions of this Agreement covering the reimbursement of Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the funds so received in the aforesaid account of the Administrative Agent to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City or as otherwise agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans, Swingline Borrowings and Eurodollar Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of a L/C Disbursement and reimbursements as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date (or in the case of an ABR Borrowing, prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date of such Borrowing) of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.07. Interest Elections.

(a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect, in the case of a Borrowing to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

 

59


(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by irrevocable written notice (via an Interest Election Request signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Notwithstanding any contrary provision herein, this Section shall not be construed to permit the Borrower to elect an Interest Period for Eurodollar Loans that does not comply with Section 2.02(d).

(c) Each Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which Interest Period shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request made by the Borrower requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period, such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the written request (including a request through electronic means) of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.08. Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Unless previously terminated, (i) the Term Loan Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the earlier to occur of (A) the Effective Date and (B) if the Effective Date shall not have occurred prior to the Outside Date, the Outside Date and (ii) all other Commitments shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the earlier to occur of (A) the Maturity Date and (B) if the Effective Date shall not have occurred prior to the Outside Date, the Outside Date.

 

60


(b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Revolving Facility Commitments and/or the Term Loan Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Revolving Facility Commitments or the Term Loan Commitments, as applicable, shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000,000 and not less than U.S.$2,000,000 (or, if less, the remaining amount of the Revolving Facility Commitments or the Term Loan Commitments, as applicable) and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Facility Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Facility Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the Total Revolving Facility Credit Exposures would exceed the total Revolving Facility Commitments.

(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Revolving Facility Commitments or the Term Loan Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the applicable Class of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Facility Commitments or the Term Loan Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or other transactions specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of any of the Commitments under any Facility shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments under any Facility shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments under such Facility.

SECTION 2.09. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) (i) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Facility Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Facility Loan made to the Borrower on the Maturity Date and (ii) the Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (A) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Term Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender to the Borrower on such dates and in such amounts as provided in Section 2.10 and (B) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan made to the Borrower on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the fifth (5th) Business Day after such Swingline Loan is made or such other date as agreed to in writing between the Borrower and the Swingline Lender; provided that on each date that a Revolving Facility Borrowing (other than a Borrowing that is required to finance the reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.05(e)) is made by the Borrower, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding and the proceeds of any such Borrowing shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to repay any Swingline Loans outstanding.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Facility and the Type thereof and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) any amount received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

 

61


(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it to the Borrower be evidenced by a promissory note substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 or Exhibit E-2, as applicable. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in such form. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.10. Notice of Repayment of Loans and Amortization of Term Loans.

(a) Prior to any repayment of any Borrowing under any Facility hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings under the applicable Facility to be repaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent (and in the case of repayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) in writing of such selection not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, (i) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, one (1) Business Day before the scheduled date of such repayment and (ii) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, three (3) Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the immediately preceding sentence, prior to any repayment of a Swingline Borrowing hereunder, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be repaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such selection not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the scheduled date of such repayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the repayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be repaid; provided that, if a notice of repayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.08, then such notice of repayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.08. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to an outstanding Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of the contents thereof.

(b) The Borrower shall repay Term Loan Borrowings in quarterly principal installments as follows (each such day referred to in the immediately succeeding clauses (i) through (iii), a “Term Loan Installment Date”): (i) on the last day of the first (1st) full calendar quarter ending after the Effective Date and the last day of each of the three (3) calendar quarters ending immediately thereafter, a quarterly principal installment in an aggregate principal amount for each such date equal to 0.625% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans made on the Effective Date; (ii) on the last day of each of the twelve (12) calendar quarters ending after the last calendar quarter referred to in clause (i), a quarterly principal installment in an aggregate principal amount for each such date equal to 1.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans made on the Effective Date; and (iii) on the last day of each of the calendar quarters ending after the last calendar quarter referred to in clause (ii) and prior to the Maturity Date, a quarterly principal installment in an aggregate principal amount for each such date equal to 1.875% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans made on the Effective Date (in each of the foregoing cases, as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.11(a) and 2.11(e)). To the extent not previously repaid, all unpaid Term Loans shall be paid in full by the Borrower on the Maturity Date.

 

62


SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (but subject to the last sentence hereof), in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum or, if less, the amount outstanding, subject to prior notice in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.10(a). Each prepayment of a Revolving Facility Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Revolving Facility Loans included in the prepaid Revolving Facility Borrowing, and each voluntary prepayment of a Term Loan Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Term Loans included in the prepaid Term Loan Borrowing and against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Term Loans of the applicable Class as directed by the Borrower (or, in the absence of such direction, in direct order of maturity). Prepayments shall be accompanied by (i) accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13 and (ii) any break funding payments required by Section 2.16.

(b) If, on any date, the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Total Revolving Facility Credit Exposures then outstanding exceeds the aggregate Revolving Facility Commitments of the Lenders on such date, the Borrower shall prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Revolving Facility Loans (or deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.05(j)) in an aggregate amount equal to such excess. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.11(b) to the Borrower and the Lenders.

(c) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Cash Proceeds are received by or on behalf of Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days after such Net Cash Proceeds are so received (or, in the case of a Prepayment Event described in clause (c) of the definition of such term, on the date such Net Cash Proceeds are so received), prepay the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.11(e) below in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds in excess of any applicable threshold amount set forth in the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”; provided that, in the case of any event described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, (i) if the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Financial Officer to the effect that the Borrower or its relevant Subsidiaries intend to apply the Net Cash Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof specified in such certificate), within 365 days after receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, to reinvest in assets used or useful in the business (excluding inventory) of the Borrower and/or the Subsidiaries, and certifying that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of the Net Cash Proceeds specified in such certificate; provided further that to the extent of any such Net Cash Proceeds therefrom that have not been so applied by the end of such 365-day period (or within a period of 180 days thereafter if by the end of such initial 365-day period the Borrower or one or more Subsidiaries shall have entered into an agreement with an unaffiliated third party to acquire such assets with such Net Cash Proceeds), at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds that have not been so applied.

(d) [Reserved].

(e) Except as otherwise provided in any Incremental Term Loan Amendment and subject to Section 2.11(g), each mandatory prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) shall be applied ratably to each Class of Term Loans then outstanding. With respect to each Class of Term Loans, all mandatory prepayment amounts pursuant to Section 2.11(c) in respect thereof shall be applied ratably, subject to Section 2.11(g), to the Term Loans included in each prepaid Term Loan Borrowing and against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Term Loans of the applicable Class as directed by the Borrower (or, in the absence of such direction, in direct order of maturity).

 

63


(f) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.11 to the contrary, (i) to the extent that any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Prepayment Event described in clause (a) or (b) of the definition of such term by a Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to a prepayment event under Section 2.11(c) (a “Foreign Subsidiary Asset Sale Recovery Event”) are prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable local law, rule or regulation from being repatriated to the United States, an amount equal to the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds so affected will not be required to be paid by the Borrower in respect of the Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.11 so long as the applicable local law, rule or regulation will not permit repatriation to the United States (the Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all commercially reasonable actions required by the applicable local law, rule or regulation to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds would be permitted under the applicable local law, rule or regulation, the Borrower will promptly (and in any event not later than five (5) Business Days after the date that such repatriation would be permitted under applicable local law, rule or regulation) prepay the Term Loans in an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds (net of any additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof), which amount shall be applied to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11 to the extent otherwise provided herein or (ii) to the extent that the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all Net Cash Proceeds from such Foreign Subsidiary Asset Sale Recovery Event could reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse tax consequence to the Borrower or the Subsidiaries with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds, the Borrower shall have no obligation to repay an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds so affected until such time that such amounts could be repatriated without incurring such material adverse tax consequence, and once any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds is able to be repatriated to the United States without such material adverse tax consequence, the Borrower will promptly (and in any event not later than five (5) Business Days after such repatriation would cease to incur such material adverse tax consequence) prepay the Term Loans in an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds (net of any additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof), which amount shall be applied to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11 to the extent otherwise provided herein.

(g) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to Section 2.11(c) at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as is reasonably practicable) prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Term Lender of the contents of any such prepayment notice and of such Term Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s pro rata share of each relevant Class of Term Loans). Any Term Lender may elect, by delivering written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City Time, one (1) Business Day after the date of such Term Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment, that the full amount of any mandatory prepayment otherwise required to be made with respect to the Term Loans held by such Term Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(c) not be made (such declined amounts, the “Retained Declined Proceeds”). If a Term Lender fails to deliver the notice setting forth such rejection of a prepayment to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory prepayment of Term Loans. In the event that the aggregate amount of Retained Declined Proceeds is greater than U.S.$0, such amount shall be retained by the Borrower.

 

64


SECTION 2.12. Fees.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Revolving Facility Lender, through the Administrative Agent, a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) on the average daily amount of the Available Unused Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the immediately preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the Effective Date and ending with the date on which the last of the Revolving Facility Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated) at the rate per annum set forth under the caption “Commitment Fee Rate” in the definition of “Applicable Margin” herein. Such Commitment Fee shall accrue during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Facility Commitment terminates. Commitment Fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable in arrears on the fifteenth (15th) day following such last day and on the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments of all the Lenders shall be terminated as provided herein, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day and the last day of each period but excluding the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments terminate) in a year of 360 days. For the purpose of calculating any Lender’s Commitment Fee, the outstanding Swingline Loans during the period for which such Lender’s Commitment Fee is calculated shall be deemed to be zero.

(b) The Borrower from time to time agrees to pay to each Revolving Facility Lender, through the Administrative Agent, a fee (an “L/C Participation Fee”) on such Lender’s Revolving Facility Percentage of the average daily amount of the Revolving L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements), during the quarter ending on such last day (or shorter period commencing with the Effective Date or ending with the later of the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments shall be terminated and the Revolving L/C Exposure shall be reduced to zero) at the rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurodollar Revolving Facility Borrowings effective for each day in such period. The Borrower from time to time agrees to pay to the Issuing Bank, for its own account, (x) a fronting fee in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank at the request of the Borrower for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit to and including the termination of such Letter of Credit (computed at a rate equal to 0.125% per annum of the average daily stated amount of such Letter of Credit), plus (y) the Issuing Bank’s standard fees and commissions with respect to the issuance, amendment, cancellation, negotiation, transfer, presentment or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of any L/C Disbursement thereunder (collectively, “Issuing Bank Fees”). L/C Participation Fees and fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the fifteenth (15th) day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Facility Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other Issuing Bank Fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand. All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees that are payable on a per annum basis shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day) in a year of 360 days.

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Administrative Agent, the fees payable to it as set forth in the Fee Letter in the amounts and at the times specified therein (the “Administrative Agent Fees”).

(d) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, (i) the ticking fees payable to the Lenders as set forth in the Fee Letter in the amounts and at the times specified therein (the “Ticking Fees”) and (ii) the upfront fees payable to the Lenders as set forth in the Fee Letter in the amounts and at the times specified therein (the “Upfront Fees”).

(e) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the Issuing Bank. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

 

65


SECTION 2.13. Interest.

(a) The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each ABR Loan (including each Swingline Loan) at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Loan at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Eurodollar Loan plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may, at their option, by notice to the Borrower (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding any provision of Section 9.08 requiring the consent of “each Lender affected thereby” for reductions in interest rates), declare that (provided that such declaration shall be deemed to have been automatically made upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i)): (i) all Loans shall bear interest at 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loans as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount outstanding hereunder, such amount shall accrue at 2% plus (A) the rate applicable to such fee or other obligation, if any, as provided hereunder or (B) otherwise, the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section; provided that this paragraph (c) shall not apply to any Event of Default that has been waived by the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.08.

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable by the Borrower in arrears (i) on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan, (ii) in the case of Revolving Facility Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Facility Commitments and (iii) in the case of the Term Loans, on the Maturity Date; provided that (A) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (B) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Facility Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (C) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) Interest in respect of Loans shall be paid in Dollars.

SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) Subject to paragraph (b) of this Section, if prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

 

66


                (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period (including by means of an Interpolated Rate or because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis); provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time; or

                (ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or fax or other electronic communications as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing. Furthermore, if any Eurodollar Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.14(a) with respect to the LIBO Rate applicable to such Eurodollar Loan, then, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan on such day.

(b) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event, an Early Opt-In Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (A) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) or (b) of the definition of the term “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (B) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (c) of the definition of the term “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

                (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any other Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that this clause (ii) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion.

 

67


                (iii) In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

                (iv) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, an Early Opt-In Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, (B) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (C) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (D) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 2.14(b)(v) and (E) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.14, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.14.

                (v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or the LIBO Rate) and either (x) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (y) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of the term “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (x) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (y) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of the term “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

                (vi) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurodollar Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for a Eurodollar Borrowing into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate. Furthermore, if any Eurodollar Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, then, until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.14, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan on such day.

 

68


SECTION 2.15. Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

                (i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Bank;

                (ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein (except for Taxes); or

                (iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent or such Lender or such other Recipient of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan to the Borrower or to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Administrative Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder, whether of principal, interest or otherwise, then the Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Administrative Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as applicable, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank (which determination shall be made in good faith (and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis) and generally consistent with similarly situated customers of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, under agreements having provisions similar to this Section 2.15, after consideration of such factors as the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, then reasonably determines to be relevant).

(b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of or any of the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank (which determination shall be made in good faith (and not on an arbitrary or

 

69


capricious basis) and generally consistent with similarly situated customers of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, under agreements having provisions similar to this Section 2.15, after consideration of such factors as the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, then reasonably determines to be relevant).

(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company, as applicable, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Promptly after any Lender or the Issuing Bank has determined that it will make a request for increased compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15, such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower thereof. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

SECTION 2.16. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11), (b) the conversion of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.10 and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a Eurodollar Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to be the amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue a Eurodollar Loan, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in Dollars of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.17. Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the

 

70


applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

(c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the

 

71


Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

                (ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person:

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

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

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

                (2) an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;

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

 

72


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

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

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

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified

 

73


party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(i) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “Lender” includes the Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

SECTION 2.18. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.

(a) Unless otherwise specified, the Borrower shall make each payment or prepayment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of L/C Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time, in each case on the date when due or the date fixed for any prepayment hereunder, in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any defense, recoupment, set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made (i) in Dollars and (ii) to the Administrative Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.05 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. Any payment required to be made by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if such Administrative Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by such Administrative Agent to make such payment.

(b) All payments and any proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent (i) not constituting either (A) a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by the Borrower), or (B) a mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.11) or (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, shall be applied ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank from the Borrower (other than in connection with Banking Services Obligations or Swap Agreement Obligations), second, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrower (other than in connection with Banking Services Obligations or Swap Agreement Obligations), third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans ratably, fourth, to prepay principal on the Loans and unreimbursed L/C Disbursements, to pay any amounts owing in respect of Swap Agreement Obligations and Banking Services Obligations up to and including the amount most recently provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.24 (with amounts allocated to the Term Loans of any Class applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of the

 

74


Term Loans of such Class to be made pursuant to Section 2.10 in inverse order of maturity) and to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the aggregate Revolving L/C Exposure, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, ratably, and fifth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender from the Borrower or any other Loan Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower, or unless a Default is in existence, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Eurodollar Loan of a Class, except (i) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (ii) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans of the same Class and, in any such event, the Borrower shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.16. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the Secured Obligations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Secured Obligations arising under Banking Services Obligations or Swap Agreement Obligations shall be excluded from the application described above and paid in clause sixth if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may have reasonably requested from the applicable provider of such Banking Services or Swap Agreements.

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim, through the application of any proceeds of Collateral or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Term Loans, Revolving Facility Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Term Loans, Revolving Facility Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Term Loans, Revolving Facility Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Term Loans, Revolving Facility Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, as in effect from time to time) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph (c) shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including any date that is fixed for prepayment by notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.11(a)), notice from the Borrower that the Borrower will not make such payment or prepayment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders or the Issuing

 

75


Bank, as applicable, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the applicable Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d), 2.05(e), 2.06(b), 2.18(d) or 9.05(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account over which the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive control as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section; in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

SECTION 2.19. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Loan Party is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender in any material respect. The relevant Loan Party hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Loan Party is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then such Loan Party may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.15 or 2.17) and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Loan Party shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Revolving Facility Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or such Loan Party (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to

 

76


apply. Nothing in this Section 2.19 or in any other provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to prejudice any rights that any Loan Party may have against any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender. Each party hereto agrees that (i) an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Acceptance by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants), and (ii) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender, provided that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

(c) If any Lender (such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination which pursuant to the terms of Section 9.08 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent, then provided no Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent) to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender to assign its Loans, and its Commitments hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, provided that (i) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment, and (ii) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon. In connection with any such assignment the Borrower, Administrative Agent, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 9.04.

SECTION 2.20. Increase in Revolving Facility Commitments and/or Incremental Term Loans.

(a) At any time, the Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request an increase to the existing Revolving Facility Commitments (any such increase, the “New Revolving Facility Commitments”) and/or to enter into one or more tranches of term loans (any such tranche, the “Incremental Term Loans” and together with the New Revolving Facility Commitments, if any, the “New Commitments”), by an amount not in excess of U.S.$100,000,000 in the aggregate or a lesser amount that is an integral multiple of U.S.$1,000,000 (or such lesser amount agreed by the Administrative Agent) and not less than U.S.$5,000,000. Such notice shall specify the date (an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the New Commitments and, in the case of Incremental Term Loans, the date for borrowing, as applicable, be made available. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of the identity of each Lender or other financial institution reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (each, a “New Revolving Facility Lender,” an “Incremental Term Lender” or generally, a “New Lender”; provided that no Ineligible Institution may be a New Lender) to whom the New Commitments have been (in accordance with the prior sentence) allocated and the amounts of such allocations; provided that any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the New Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide a New Commitment. Such New Commitments shall become effective as of such Increased Amount Date, and in the case of Incremental Term Loans, shall be made on such Increased Amount Date; provided that (i) the conditions set forth in paragraphs of (b) and (c) of Section 4.02 shall be satisfied or waived by the Required Lenders on such Increased Amount Date before or after giving effect to such New Commitments and Loans; (ii) such increase in the Revolving Facility Commitments and/or the Incremental Term Loans shall be evidenced by one or more joinder agreements executed and delivered to Administrative Agent by each New Lender, as applicable, and each

 

77


shall be recorded in the register, each of which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and subject to the requirements set forth in Section 2.17(f); and (iii) the Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.16 in connection with the provisions of the New Commitments; provided that, with respect to any Incremental Term Loans incurred for the primary purpose of financing a Limited Conditionality Acquisition (“Acquisition-Related Incremental Term Loans”), clause (i) of this sentence shall be deemed to have been satisfied so long as (A) as of the date of execution of the related Limited Conditionality Acquisition Agreement by the parties thereto, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from entry into such Limited Conditionality Acquisition Agreement, (B) as of the date of the borrowing of such Acquisition-Related Incremental Term Loans, no Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), 7.01(b), 7.01(h) or 7.01(i) is in existence immediately before or after giving effect (including on a Pro Forma Basis) to such borrowing and to any concurrent transactions and any substantially concurrent use of proceeds thereof, (C) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the date of execution of the applicable Limited Conditionality Acquisition Agreement by the parties thereto, except to the extent any such representations or warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such specified earlier date (provided that no materiality qualifier set forth in this subclause (C) shall be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof) and (D) as of the date of the borrowing of such Acquisition-Related Incremental Term Loans, customary “Sungard” representations and warranties (with such representations and warranties to be reasonably determined by the Lenders providing such Acquisition-Related Incremental Term Loans) shall be true and correct in all material respects immediately before and after giving effect to the incurrence of such Acquisition-Related Incremental Term Loans, except to the extent any such representations or warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such specified earlier date (provided that no materiality qualifier set forth in this subclause (D) shall be applicable to any representations and warranties that already are qualified or modified by materiality in the text thereof).

(b) On any Increased Amount Date on which New Revolving Facility Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each of the existing Revolving Facility Lenders shall assign to each of the New Revolving Facility Lenders, and each of the New Revolving Facility Lenders shall purchase from each of the existing Revolving Facility Lenders, at the principal amount thereof, such interests in the outstanding Revolving Facility Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date that will result in, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Facility Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans being held by existing Revolving Facility Lenders and New Revolving Facility Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Facility Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such New Revolving Facility Commitments to the Revolving Facility Commitments, (ii) each New Revolving Facility Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Facility Commitment and each Loan made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Facility Loan and have the same terms as any existing Revolving Facility Loan and (iii) each New Revolving Facility Lender shall become a Lender with respect to the Revolving Facility Commitments and all matters relating thereto.

(c) On any Increased Amount Date on which Incremental Term Loans are effected and borrowed, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each Incremental Term Loan shall be deemed for all purposes a Loan made hereunder, (ii) each Incremental Term Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and (iii) the Incremental Term Loans (A) shall rank pari passu in right of payment and with respect to security with the Revolving Facility Loans and any then-existing Class of Term Loans, (B) shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date (but may have amortization prior to such date;

provided that the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Incremental Term Loans shall be no shorter than the longest remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any then-existing Class of Term Loans (without giving effect to any prepayment thereof that would otherwise modify the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such then-existing Class of Term Loans)), (C) shall not be guaranteed by any Person that is not a Loan Party or secured by any assets other than the Collateral and (D) shall be treated substantially the same as (and in any event no more favorably than) the Revolving Facility Loans and any then-existing Class of Term Loans (provided that (x) the terms and conditions applicable to any Incremental Term Loans maturing after the Maturity Date may provide for additional or different financial or other covenants or prepayment requirements applicable only during periods after the Maturity Date, (y) the Incremental Term Loans may be priced, and may include fees, differently than any then-existing Class of Term Loans and (z) any Incremental Term Loans may participate in any mandatory prepayment under Section 2.11(c) on a pro rata basis (or on less than pro rata basis, but not on a greater than pro rata basis) with any then-existing Class of Term Loans). All Incremental Term Loans made on any Increased Amount Date will be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.03.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly upon receipt of the Borrower’s notice of an Increased Amount Date and, in respect thereof, the New Commitments and the New Lenders.

(e) Incremental Term Loans may be made hereunder pursuant to an amendment or restatement (an “Incremental Term Loan Amendment”) of this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Lender providing such Incremental Term Loans, if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Incremental Term Loan Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.20. Nothing contained in this Section 2.20 shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase any of its Commitments hereunder, or provide Incremental Term Loans, at any time.

SECTION 2.21. Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any change in law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted after the Effective Date that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make or maintain any Eurodollar Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligations of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans or to convert ABR Borrowings to Eurodollar Borrowings, as the case may be, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), convert all such Eurodollar Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings, on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

SECTION 2.22. [Reserved].

 

79


SECTION 2.23. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Facility Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);

(b) any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.06 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Issuing Bank’s Revolving L/C Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with this Section; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize the Issuing Bank’s future Revolving L/C Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with this Section; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Disbursements owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to clause (d) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto;

(c) such Defaulting Lender’s Commitments, Revolving Facility Credit Exposure and Term Loans shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or any other requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.08); provided that, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.08, this clause (c) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of any amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of each Lender or each Lender adversely affected thereby;

 

80


(d) if any Swingline Exposure or Revolving L/C Exposure exists at the time a Revolving Facility Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

                (i) all or any part of such Swingline Exposure and Revolving L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender (other than the portion of such Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the definition of such term) shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders that are Revolving Facility Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Facility Percentages but only to the extent that such reallocation does not, as to any non-Defaulting Lender, cause such non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Facility Credit Exposure to exceed its Revolving Facility Commitment and the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time;

                (ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Issuing Bank only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j) for so long as such Revolving L/C Exposure is outstanding;

                (iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure is cash collateralized;

                (iv) if the Revolving L/C Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 2.12(a) and 2.12(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ respective Revolving Facility Percentages; and

                (v) if any Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until such Revolving L/C Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated; and

(e) so long as any Revolving Facility Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Facility Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders that are Revolving Facility Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.23(d), and Swingline Exposure related to any such newly made Swingline Loan or Revolving L/C Exposure related to any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.23(d)(i) (and such Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein).

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action with respect to a Lender Parent shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

 

81


In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Revolving Facility Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and Revolving L/C Exposure of the Revolving Facility Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment and on such date such Revolving Facility Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Facility Loans of the other Revolving Facility Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Revolving Facility Lender to hold such Revolving Facility Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage in respect of the Revolving Facility.

SECTION 2.24. Banking Services and Swap Agreements. Each Lender or Affiliate thereof providing Banking Services for, or having Swap Agreements with, any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of a Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, promptly after entering into such Banking Services or Swap Agreements, written notice setting forth the aggregate amount of all Banking Services Obligations and Swap Agreement Obligations of such Loan Party or Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof to such Lender or Affiliate (whether matured or unmatured, absolute or contingent). In furtherance of that requirement, each such Lender or Affiliate thereof shall furnish the Administrative Agent, from time to time after a significant change therein or upon a request therefor, a summary of the amounts due or to become due in respect of such Banking Services Obligations and Swap Agreement Obligations. The most recent information provided to the Administrative Agent shall be used in determining which tier of the waterfall, contained in Section 2.18(b), such Banking Services Obligations and/or Swap Agreement Obligations will be placed.

All material payments due from Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries or for which any claim may be made against Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance and other benefits have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of Holdings, the Borrower or such Subsidiary to the extent required by GAAP. The consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to a right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries (or any predecessor) is a party or by which Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Subsidiaries (or any predecessor) is bound, other than collective bargaining agreements that, individually or in the aggregate, are not material to Holdings, the Borrower and the Subsidiaries, taken as a whole.

None of (a) Holdings, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, any of their respective directors, officers or employees, or (b) to the knowledge of the Borrower, any agent of Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary that will act in any capacity in connection with or benefit from the credit facilities established hereby, is a Sanctioned Person. No Borrowing or Letter of Credit, use of proceeds or other Transactions will violate Anti-Corruption Laws or applicable Sanctions.

SECTION 3.20. Affected Financial Institutions. No Loan Party is an Affected Financial Institution.

SECTION 3.21. Security Interest in Collateral. The provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, upon execution and delivery by the parties thereto, create legal and valid Liens on all of the Collateral in respect of which and to the extent this Agreement and such other Loan Documents purport to create Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties. Upon the proper filing of UCC financing statements, upon the taking of possession or control by the Administrative Agent of the Collateral with respect to which a security interest may be perfected by possession or control (which possession or control shall be given to the Administrative Agent to the extent possession or control by the Administrative Agent is required by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents), and the taking of all other actions to be taken pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such Liens constitute perfected first priority Liens on the Collateral (subject to Liens permitted by Section 6.02) to the extent perfection can be obtained by the filing of UCC financing statements, possession or control, securing the Secured Obligations, enforceable against the applicable Loan Party in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

All of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests owned by any Loan Party have been (to the extent such concepts are relevant with respect to such ownership interests) duly authorized and issued and are fully paid and non assessable.

(b) As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing, such instructions shall be binding upon each Lender and the Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability unless the Administrative Agent receives

 

116


an indemnification and is exculpated in a manner satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Bank with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided further that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(c) In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i) the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, the Issuing Bank or any other holder of Secured Obligations other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees (and each other Secured Party will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Secured Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed) that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; and

(ii) nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Secured Party for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account.

(d) The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.

 

117


(e) Neither the Arranger nor the Documentation Agent shall have obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in such capacity, but each such Person shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.

(f) In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any reimbursement obligation in respect of any L/C Disbursement shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Loan Party) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Disbursements and all other Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.12, 2.13, 2.15, 2.17 and 9.05) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, the Issuing Bank and each other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or the other Secured Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 9.05). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or the Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Secured Obligations or the rights of any Lender or the Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or the Issuing Bank in any such proceeding.

(g) The provisions of this Article VIII are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, and, except solely to the extent of the Borrower’s rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article VIII, none of Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any of their respective Affiliates, shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary under any such provisions. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Secured Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article VIII.

SECTION 8.02. Administrative Agents Reliance, Indemnification, Etc.

(a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (A) with the consent of or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the

 

118


Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or (B) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the Administrative Agent’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by fax, emailed .pdf or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page) or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any (i) notice of any of the events or circumstances set forth or described in Section 5.05 unless and until written notice thereof stating that it is a “notice under Section 5.05” in respect of this Agreement and identifying the specific clause under said Section is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, or (ii) notice of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of Default” or a “notice of an Event of Default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Bank. Further, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (A) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (C) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (D) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (E) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items (which on their face purport to be such items) expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or (F) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for, or be responsible for any Liabilities, cost or expense suffered by Holdings, the Borrower, any Subsidiary, any Lender or the Issuing Bank as a result of, any determination of the Revolving Facility Credit Exposure, any of the component amounts thereof or any portion thereof attributable to each Lender or the Issuing Bank.

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its holder until such promissory note has been assigned in accordance with Section 9.04, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 9.04(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Holdings or the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or the Issuing Bank and shall not be responsible to any Lender or the Issuing Bank for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance of the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument

 

119


or writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).

SECTION 8.03. Posting of Communications.

(a) Holdings and the Borrower agree that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank by posting the Communications on IntraLinks, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

(b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank, Holdings and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank, Holdings and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

(c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE ARRANGER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER, THE ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

(d) Each Lender and the Issuing Bank agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender and the Issuing Bank agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

 

120


(e) Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank, Holdings and the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.

(f) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

SECTION 8.04. The Administrative Agent Individually. With respect to its Commitment, Loans and Letters of Credit, the Person serving as the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be. The terms “Issuing Bank”, “Lenders”, “Required Lenders”, “Majority Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender, the Issuing Bank or as one of the Required Lenders or Majority Lenders, as applicable. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, Holdings, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing as if such Person was not acting as the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank.

SECTION 8.05. Successor Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York or an Affiliate of any such bank. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this Section, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the

 

121


Borrower, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Security Document for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and continue to be entitled to the rights set forth in such Security Document, and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this Section (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further action under any Security Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and (ii) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender and the Issuing Bank. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article VIII and Section 9.05, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (i) above.

SECTION 8.06. Acknowledgements of Lenders and Issuing Bank.

(a) Each Lender represents and warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, (ii) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and in providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in each case in the ordinary course of its business, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument (and each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing), (iii) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder and (iv) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any other Lender or Issuing Bank, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning Holdings, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

 

122


(b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Acceptance or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date.

(c) (i) Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby agrees that (A) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender or Issuing Bank that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender or Issuing Bank from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender or Issuing Bank (whether or not known to such Lender or Issuing Bank), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (B) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Issuing Bank under this Section 8.06(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(ii) Each Lender and Issuing Bank hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (A) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (B) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender or Issuing Bank to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(iii) Each of Holdings and the Borrower hereby agrees, on behalf of itself and each other Loan Party, that (A) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender or Issuing Bank with respect to such amount and (B) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such erroneous Payment.

 

123


(iv) Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.06(c) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.

SECTION 8.07. Collateral Matters. (a) Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.06 or with respect to a Secured Party’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Secured Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof. In its capacity as such, the Administrative Agent is a “representative” of the Secured Parties within the meaning of the term “secured party” as defined in the UCC. In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney, to execute and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no Banking Services Agreement or Swap Agreement will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Secured Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Loan Party under any Loan Document. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that is a party to any such Banking Services Agreement or Swap Agreement, as applicable, shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the Loan Documents as a Secured Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.

(c) The Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Sections 6.02(d), 6.02(e), 6.02(f), 6.02(g), 6.02(h), 6.02(i) and 6.02(k). The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders or any other Secured Party for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

SECTION 8.08. Credit Bidding. The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Secured Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Secured Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Secured Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Secured Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that

 

124


shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Secured Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 9.08 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Secured Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership interests, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Secured Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Secured Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Secured Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Secured Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Secured Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Secured Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Secured Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

SECTION 8.09. Certain ERISA Matters.

(a) Each Lender (i) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (ii) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, and the Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(A) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments,

125


insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement,

(C) (w) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (x) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (y) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (z) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, or

(D) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(b) In addition, unless sub-clause (A) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (D) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (i) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (ii) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, the Arranger or any of their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that none of the Administrative Agent or the Arranger or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

SECTION 8.10. Flood Laws. JPMorgan has adopted internal policies and procedures that address requirements placed on federally regulated lenders under the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994 and related legislation (the “Flood Laws”). JPMorgan, as administrative agent or collateral agent on a syndicated facility, will post on the applicable electronic platform (or otherwise distribute to each Lender in the syndicate) documents that it receives in connection with the Flood Laws. However, JPMorgan reminds each Lender and Participant in the facility that, pursuant to the Flood Laws, each federally regulated Lender (whether acting as a Lender or Participant in the facility) is responsible for assuring its own compliance with the flood insurance requirements.

SECTION 9.02. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties herein, in the other Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Issuing Bank and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans, the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the issuance of the Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by such Persons or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or L/C Disbursement or any Fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not been terminated. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreements contained herein, indemnification and reimbursement obligations contained herein (including pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.17 and 9.05) shall survive the payment in full of the principal and interest hereunder, the expiration of the Letters of Credit and the termination of the Commitments or this Agreement.

SECTION 9.03. Integration; Binding Effect. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed and delivered by Holdings, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received copies hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Holdings, the Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) except as provided under Section 6.15(d), neither Holdings nor the Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by Holdings or the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Persons (other than an Ineligible Institution) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments, participations in Letters of Credit and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) of:

(A) the Borrower (provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after the Borrower has received written notice thereof); provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;

 

129


(B) the Administrative Agent;

(C) the Swingline Lender; provided that no consent of the Swingline Lender shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan Commitment or a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of Lender or an Approved Fund.

(D) and the Issuing Bank; provided that no consent of the Issuing Bank shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan Commitment or a Term Loan to a Lender, an Affiliate of Lender or an Approved Fund.

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of the applicable Class or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least U.S.$1,000,000 in the aggregate, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than U.S.$5,000,000, in the case of assignments under the Revolving Facility and U.S.$1,000,000, in the case of assignments under the Term Loan Facility unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Facility;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (x) an Assignment and Acceptance or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Acceptance by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Acceptance are participants, together with a processing and recordation fee of U.S.$3,500; provided that no such recordation fee shall be due in connection with an assignment to an existing Lender or Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender or an assignment by the Administrative Agent and provided further that only one such fee shall be payable in connection with contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds; and

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrower and its Affiliates and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.

 

130


For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the terms “Approved Fund” and “Ineligible Institution” have the following meanings:

Approved Fund” shall mean any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course and that is administered or managed by a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

Ineligible Institution” shall mean (a) a natural person, (b) a Defaulting Lender or its Lender Parent, (c) Holdings, the Borrower, any of the Subsidiaries or any Affiliates of any of the foregoing, (d) a company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof, or (e) a Disqualified Lender, unless in the case of this clause (e), the Borrower otherwise consents in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case the applicable Person will not be considered a Disqualified Lender or an Ineligible Institution for the purpose of the applicable assignment or participation.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance (or an agreement incorporating by reference a form of Assignment and Acceptance posted on the Approved Electronic Platform) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.05). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance (or an agreement incorporating by reference a form of Assignment and Acceptance posted on the Approved Electronic Platform) delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and L/C Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by Holdings, the Borrower, the Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance (or an agreement incorporating by reference a form of Assignment and Acceptance posted on the Approved Electronic Platform) executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent

 

131


shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(c), 2.05(d), 2.05(e), 2.06(b), 2.18(d) or 9.05(d), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph. Each assigning Lender and the assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Acceptance, shall be deemed to have represented to the Administrative Agent that all written consents required by this Section 9.04 with respect thereto (other than the consent of the Administrative Agent) have been obtained and that such Assignment and Acceptance is otherwise duly completed and in proper form (it being acknowledged that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation (and shall incur no liability) with respect to obtaining (or confirming the receipt) of any such written consent or with respect to the form of (or any defect in) such Assignment and Acceptance, any such duty and obligation being solely with the assigning Lender and the assignee), and each assignee, by its execution and delivery of an Assignment and Acceptance, shall be deemed to have represented to the assigning Lender and the Administrative Agent that such assignee is not an Ineligible Institution.

(c) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”), other than an Ineligible Institution, in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (iii) Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument (oral or written) pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.08(b) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.17(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.18 and 2.19 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.15 or 2.17, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.19(b) with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any

 

132


obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or Section 1.163-5(b) of the Proposed United States Treasury Regulations (or, in each case, any amended or successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(e) Disqualified Lenders.

(i) No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Lender as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign or grant a participation in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Borrower has consented to such assignment or participation in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Lender for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee or Participant that becomes a Disqualified Lender after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a written supplement to the list of “Disqualified Lenders” referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Lender”), (A) such assignee or Participant shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender or Participant and (B) the execution by the Borrower of an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Lender. Any assignment or participation in violation of this clause (e)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (e) shall apply.

(ii) If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Lender without the Borrower’s prior written consent in violation of clause (i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Lender after the applicable Trade Date, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Disqualified Lender to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 9.04), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Persons (other than an Ineligible Institution) at the lesser of (A) the principal amount thereof and (B) the amount that such Disqualified Lender paid to acquire such interests, rights and obligations in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable to it hereunder.

 

133


(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Lenders to whom an assignment or participation is made in violation of clause (i) above (A) will not have the right to (x) receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by Holdings, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) (x) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Lender will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Lenders consented to such matter and (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization, each Disqualified Lender party hereto hereby agrees (1) not to vote on such plan of reorganization, (2) if such Disqualified Lender does vote on such plan of reorganization notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated” pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other applicable laws), and such vote shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan of reorganization in accordance with Section 1126(c) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other applicable laws) and (3) not to contest any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating the foregoing clause (2).

(iv) The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent, to (A) post the list of Disqualified Lenders provided by the Borrower and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”) on an Approved Electronic Platform, including that portion of such Approved Electronic Platform that is designated for “public side” Lenders and/or (B) provide the DQ List to each Lender or potential Lender requesting the same.

(v) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall (A) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any other Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Lender or (B) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, by any other Person to any Disqualified Lender.

SECTION 9.05. Expenses; Indemnity; Limitation of Liability, Etc.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arranger and their respective Affiliates (which, in the case of counsel, shall be limited to the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of one primary outside counsel, and one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction, for the Administrative Agent and the Arranger) in connection with the preparation of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or by the Administrative Agent and the Arranger in connection with any syndication of the Commitments or the Loans or the administration of this Agreement (including expenses incurred in connection with due diligence and initial and ongoing Collateral examination to the extent incurred with the reasonable prior approval of the Borrower and the reasonable fees, disbursements and the charges for no more than one counsel in each jurisdiction where Collateral is located) or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions hereby contemplated shall be consummated) or incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender (which, in the case of counsel, shall

 

134

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law (i) each of Holdings and the Borrower, on behalf of itself and the other Loan Parties, agrees that it and the other Loan Parties shall not assert, and each of Holdings and the Borrower, on behalf of itself and the other Loan Parties, hereby waives, any claim against the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, and any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called a “Lender-Related Person”) for any Liabilities arising from the use by others of information or other materials (including any personal data) obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), except to the extent such Liabilities are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender-Related Person or its Related Parties, and (ii) no party hereto shall assert, and each such party hereby waives, any Liabilities against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing in this Section 9.05(b) shall relieve the Borrower or any Loan Party of any obligation it may have (A) under Section 9.05(a) or any other expense reimbursement obligations set forth herein or in any other Loan Document or (B) to indemnify an Indemnitee, as provided in Section 9.05(c) or any other indemnification provision set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, against any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnitee by a third party.

Subject to and without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all Liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable and documented counsel or consultant fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of,

The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, the Arranger, the Issuing Bank or any Lender.

The agreements in this Section 9.05(d) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

The applicable Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such set-off or application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section. The rights of each Lender and the Issuing Bank under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender or the Issuing Bank may have.

SECTION 9.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN LETTERS OF CREDIT AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 9.08. Waivers; Amendment.

(a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any case shall entitle such Person to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Except as provided in Section 2.20 with respect to an Incremental Term Loan Amendment or as provided in Section 2.14(b), neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (x) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders and (y) in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each party thereto and the Administrative Agent, as applicable, and consented to by the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement shall:

(i) decrease or forgive the principal amount of, or extend the final maturity of, or decrease the rate of interest on, any Loan or any L/C Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided that (1) neither (A) any amendment to the Financial Covenant definitions in this Agreement (or defined terms used in the Financial Covenants in this Agreement) or (B) any amendment entered into pursuant to the terms of Section 2.14(b) shall, in either case of the foregoing clauses (A) and (B) constitute a reduction in the rate of interest for purposes of this clause (i) and (2) waiver of the imposition of the default rate of interest shall only require the consent of the Required Lenders and not each Lender directly affected thereby,

 

137


(ii) increase or extend the Commitment of any Lender or decrease the Commitment Fees or L/C Participation Fees or other fees of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender (it being understood that waivers or modifications of conditions precedent, covenants, Defaults or Events of Default or of a mandatory reduction in the aggregate Commitments shall not constitute an increase of the Commitments of any Lender),

(iii) extend or waive any Term Loan Installment Date or reduce the amount due on any Term Loan Installment Date or extend any date on which payment of interest on any Loan or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees is due, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby,

(iv) amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.08(c), the second sentence of Section 2.11(a), Section 2.11(e) or Section 2.18(b) or (c) in a manner that would by its terms alter the ratable reduction of Commitments or the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby,

(v) amend or modify the provisions of this Section or the definition of the terms “Required Lenders”, “Majority Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the prior written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby (it being understood that, with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Loans and Commitments are included on the Effective Date),

(vi) (x) release all or substantially all the Collateral, or (y) release any material Loan Party from its Guarantee under a Collateral Agreement, unless, in the case of a Subsidiary Loan Party, all or substantially all the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary Loan Party is sold or otherwise disposed of in a transaction permitted by this Agreement, without the prior written consent of each Lender,

(vii) amend or modify the payment waterfall provisions of Section 2.23(b) without the prior written consent of each Lender, or

(viii) waive or modify any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 with respect to Borrowings of Revolving Facility Loans or any issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit being made in accordance with such Section 4.02 without the consent of the Majority Lenders of the Revolving Facility;

provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender acting as such at the effective date of such agreement, as applicable (it being understood that any change to Section 2.23 shall require the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification of this Agreement shall be required of any Defaulting Lender, except with respect to any amendment, waiver or other modification referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of the first proviso of this clause (b) and then only

 

138


in the event such Defaulting Lender shall be adversely affected by such amendment, waiver or other modification. Each Lender shall be bound by any waiver, amendment or modification authorized by this Section 9.08 and any consent by any Lender pursuant to this Section 9.08 shall bind any assignee of such Lender.

(c) Without the consent of any Lender, the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent may (in their respective sole discretion, or shall, to the extent required by any Loan Document) enter into any amendment, modification or waiver of any Loan Document, or enter into any new agreement or instrument, to effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable law.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent, and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities (in addition to Incremental Term Loans as provided in Section 2.20) to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans and the Revolving Facility Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, technical and conforming modifications to the Loan Documents may be made with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to the extent necessary to (i) integrate any Incremental Term Loans or New Revolving Facility Commitments on substantially the same basis as the Term Loans or Revolving Facility Loans, as applicable and (ii) cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency, to the extent such cure could not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Lenders.

(f) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) no Real Property will be taken as Collateral unless prior thereto each Lender shall have completed its flood insurance due diligence and flood insurance compliance requirements, (ii) any Mortgage shall have covenants and representations reasonably satisfactory to all Lenders with respect to flood insurance and related requirements, and (iii) any increase, extension or renewal of the credit facilities under this Agreement shall be subject to flood insurance due diligence and flood insurance compliance reasonably satisfactory to all Lenders.

SECTION 9.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the applicable interest rate, together with all fees and charges that are treated as interest under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), as provided for herein or in any other document executed in connection herewith, or otherwise contracted for, charged, received, taken or reserved by any Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) that may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by such Lender in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable hereunder, together with all Charges payable to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate, provided that such excess amount shall be paid to such Lender or the Issuing Bank on subsequent payment dates to the extent not exceeding the legal limitation.

SECTION 9.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the agreements regarding certain Fees referred to herein constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any previous agreement among or representations from the parties or their Affiliates with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan

 

139


Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Fee Letter shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and remain in full force and effect. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto and thereto any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

SECTION 9.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 9.13. Counterparts; Electronic Execution.

ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY HOLDINGS, THE BORROWER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT HOLDINGS, THE BORROWER, THE OTHER LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.

SECTION 9.17. Release of Liens and Guarantees. In the event that any Loan Party conveys, sells, assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or any portion of any of the Equity Interests or assets of any Subsidiary Loan Party or any of its other assets (other than the Equity Interests of the Borrower) to a Person that is not (and is not required to become) a Loan Party in a transaction not prohibited by Section 6.05, the Administrative Agent shall, in each case, promptly (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably requested by the Borrower and at the Borrower’s expense to release any Liens created by any Loan Document in respect of such Equity Interests or assets, and, in the case of a disposition of the Equity Interests of any Subsidiary Loan Party that is not the Borrower in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05 and as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party would cease to be a Subsidiary, terminate such Subsidiary Loan Party’s obligations under its Guarantee.

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

SECTION 9.24. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals, the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, intending to be legally bound, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Employment: Position and Duties. The Company agrees to employ Employee, and Employee agrees to be employed by the Company, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement. Employee shall be employed by the Company as the Chief Executive Officer. In this capacity, Employee agrees to devote his full time, energy and skill to the faithful performance of his duties herein, and shall perform the duties and carry out the responsibilities assigned to him to the best of Employee’s ability and in a diligent, businesslike and efficient manner. Employee will not engage in any outside business activities that materially interfere with his obligations under this Agreement, and will not render services of a business, professional or commercial nature for compensation or otherwise to any other person or entity without the express written consent of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Employee from devoting reasonable time for: (i) participating in professional, educational, philanthropic, public interest, charitable or community activities; (ii) providing advice, assistance and counsel to Controlled Affiliates (as defined below) on a basis consistent with past practices; and (iii) managing Employee’s and his family’s personal investments; provided, that any such activities do not materially interfere with the performance of Employee’s duties and responsibilities hereunder. Employee’s duties shall include those duties customarily performed by an officer in Employee’s position and such additional duties as may be assigned from time to time by the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company. Employee shall comply with any policies and procedures established for Company employees, including, without limitation, those policies and procedures contained in the Company’s employee handbook previously delivered to Employee. To the extent there is any conflict between those policies and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern. Employee shall travel to such places in the United States and elsewhere as the Board directs from time to time as needed.

2. Term of Employment. The Company shall employ Employee, and Employee shall serve the Company, beginning on the Effective Date and continuing until this Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms (the “Employment Period”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, either Employee or the Company may terminate Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason, at any time, upon not less than thirty (30) days’


prior notice; provided that no prior notice shall be required from the Company if Employee is terminated by the Company for Cause (as defined below). Upon the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company, the Company shall not have any further obligation or liability to pay any compensation or benefits to Employee, except as set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement to the extent such termination occurs during the Employment Period.

3. Compensation. During the Employment Period, Employee shall be compensated by the Company for his services as follows:

(a) Base Salary. Employee shall be paid an annual base salary (the “Annual Base Salary”) of $300,000 in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll procedures. Increases in Employee’s Annual Base Salary shall be as approved by the Board or its Compensation Committee.

(b) Benefits. Employee shall have the right, on the same basis as other members of senior management of the Company, to participate in and to receive benefits under the Company’s executive and employee benefit plans, 401K plan, paid holidays, insurance programs and/or indemnification agreements, as may be in effect from time to time, subject to any applicable waiting periods and other restrictions. In addition, Employee shall be entitled to health insurance reasonably similar to the most recent health insurance received at Employee’s previous employer at a monthly cost of $524 to Employee. Employee shall also be entitled to $1,000,000 of life insurance reasonably similar to the most recent life insurance received at Employee’s previous company. Employee shall be entitled to paid time-off in accordance with the Company’s policies as such policies may exist from time to time.

(c) Signing and EBITDA Bonus: Employee shall be eligible to receive a one-time cash bonus of $75,000 (the “Signing Bonus”), such Signing Bonus to be earned and payable on completion of Employee’s first day of employment; provided, however, that if Employee resigns from the Company for any reason or is terminated by the Company for Cause as defined below on or prior to December 31, 2019, then Employee shall be required to repay the net amount of the Signing Bonus to the Company within ten (10) business days following such resignation or termination. Employee shall be eligible to receive a one-time cash bonus of $25,000, such bonus to become earned and payable in July of 2019 (the “2019 EBITDA Bonus”) if the Company has achieved its January—June 2019 budgeted EBTIDA performance. The Signing Bonus and the 2019 EBITDA Bonus will be subject to all applicable taxes and withholding and will be paid in accordance with the payment practices of the Company then in effect on the next payroll date occurring more than five (5) business days after such bonus becomes earned and payable.

(d) Annual Bonuses: For calendar year 2019 and every subsequent twelve (12) months of employment, you will be eligible to receive an annual bonus (each, an “Annual Bonus”) with a target of 40% of your then-current annual base salary up to a maximum bonus of 80% of the annual base salary received during the applicable bonus period. The receipt and amount of Employee’s bonus shall be subject to Employee (i) achieving personal and Company goals as determined by the Board of Managers (the “Board”) of the Company and parent entity of the Company (“Holdco”), and (ii) being employed by the Company on the date of payment of such bonus. Each Annual Bonus shall be finally determined by the Board in its sole discretion after taking into account Company and individual performance achievements. Each Annual Bonus will be paid following the completion of the Company’s fiscal year audit for the applicable twelve (12) month period. A portion of each Annual Bonus may be deferred in accordance with the Company’s standard compensation practices. Employee’s salary and each Annual Bonus will be subject to all applicable taxes and withholding and will be paid in accordance with the payment practices of the Company then in effect.

(e) Management Incentive Equity Pool: Following completion of three (3) months of employment, Employee will be eligible to receive incentive equity (the “Equity Grant”) in the form of incentive units that represent 3% of the appreciation in the value of Holdco following the date of issuance of the Equity Grant. Any Equity Grant will be subject to the terms and conditions of the award agreement pursuant to which such Equity Grant will be granted (the “Award Agreement”) (including, without limitation, terms relating to the manner, time and rate of vesting of the Equity Grant) and other documents to be determined and delivered by the Company to Employee.

- 4 -


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no payments shall be due under this Section 4(b)(i) unless and until Employee shall have executed and not revoked, within thirty (30) days after Employee’s termination date (or such other longer period as required by applicable law’), a separation agreement and general release and waiver of claims against the Company (other than (a) the payments and benefits contemplated by Section 4(a)(b) Employee’s right to receive COBRA continuation coverage in accordance with applicable law, and (c) any rights to indemnification Employee has or may have as an officer or director of the Company or as an insured under any directors and officers liability insurance policy) in a form customarily used by the Company, and the execution and non-revocation of such general release and waiver shall be a condition to Employee’s rights under this Section 4(b) or (ii) if Employee breaches any restrictive covenants (including, without limitation, the confidentiality, noncompetition, non-solicitation and non-hire covenants set forth in Sections 6 and 7 of this Agreement) applicable to Employee pursuant to any written agreement that contains restrictive covenants applicable to Employee for the benefit of any Company Entity.

(b) This Agreement is intended to comply and shall be administered in a manner that is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Code and the interpretative guidance thereunder or be exempt therefrom, including the exceptions for short-term deferrals and separation pay arrangements.

8. Enforceability and Breaches.

The parties agree that a court with proper jurisdiction shall be allowed to reduce the restrictive covenants contained herein to the maximum duration and geographic area of restriction deemed legal, valid and enforceable.

(b) Employee acknowledges and agrees that, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Employee of any of the provisions of this Agreement, monetary damages shall not constitute a sufficient remedy.

(b) Termination Without Cause. If Employee’s employment (x) is terminated by the Company for any reason other than (A) for Cause, or (B) by reason of his death or Disability, then Employee shall be eligible to receive the continued payment of Employee’s Annual Base Salary as in effect on the date of the termination of Employee’s employment, less applicable withholdings for taxes, in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll procedures, for six (6) month following the termination of Employee’s employment (the “Severance Payment”).
