Merger Sub was formed solely for the purpose of engaging in the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and has not engaged in any business activities or conducted any operations or incurred any obligation or liability, other than as contemplated by this Agreement.

5.12 Brokers. Except for Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, BofA Securities, Inc. and Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., no broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission in connection with the Transactions based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of Switchback or Merger Sub.

5.13 Switchback Trust Fund. As of the date of this Agreement, Switchback has no less than $317,439,598 in the trust fund established by Switchback for the benefit of its public stockholders (the “Trust Fund”) (including, if applicable, an aggregate of approximately $10,924,117 of deferred underwriting discounts and commissions being held in the Trust Fund) maintained in a trust account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Trust Account”). The monies of such Trust Account are invested in United States Government securities or money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and held in trust by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trustee”) pursuant to the Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of July 25, 2019, between Switchback and the Trustee (the “Trust Agreement”). The Trust Agreement has not been amended or modified and is valid and in full force and effect and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to the Remedies Exceptions. Switchback has complied in all material respects with the terms of the Trust Agreement and is not in breach thereof or default thereunder and there does not exist any event which, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time, would constitute such a breach or default by Switchback or the Trustee. There are no separate contracts, agreements, side letters or other agreements or understandings (whether written or unwritten, express or implied): (i) between Switchback and the Trustee that would cause the description of the Trust Agreement in the Switchback SEC Reports to be inaccurate in any material respect; or (ii) that would entitle any person (other than stockholders of Switchback who shall have elected to redeem their shares of Switchback Class A Common Stock pursuant to the Switchback Organizational Documents) to any portion of the proceeds in the Trust Account. Prior to the Closing, none of the funds held in the Trust Account may be released except: (1) to pay income and franchise Taxes from any interest income earned in the Trust Account; and (2) upon the exercise of Redemption Rights in accordance with the provisions of the Switchback Organizational Documents. To Switchback’s knowledge, as of the date of this Agreement, following the Effective Time, no stockholder of Switchback shall be entitled to receive any amount from the Trust Account except to the extent such stockholder is exercising its Redemption Rights. There are no Actions pending or, to the knowledge of Switchback, threatened in writing with respect to the Trust Account. Upon consummation of the Merger and notice thereof to the Trustee pursuant to the Trust Agreement, Switchback shall cause the Trustee to, and the Trustee shall thereupon be obligated to, release to Switchback as promptly as practicable, the Trust Funds in accordance with the Trust Agreement at which point the Trust Account shall terminate; provided, however, that the liabilities and obligations of Switchback due and owing or incurred at or prior to the Effective Time shall be paid as and when due, including all amounts payable (i) to stockholders of Switchback who shall have exercised their Redemption Rights, (ii) with respect to filings, applications and/or other actions taken pursuant to this Agreement required under Law, (iii) to the Trustee for fees and costs incurred in accordance with the Trust Agreement, and (iv) to third parties (e.g., professionals, printers, etc.) who have rendered services to Switchback in connection with its efforts to effect the Merger. As of the date hereof, Switchback has no reason to believe that any of the conditions to the use of funds in the Trust Account will not be satisfied or funds available in the Trust Account will not be available to Switchback at the Effective Time.

5.14 Employees. Other than any officers as described in the Switchback SEC Reports, Switchback and Merger Sub have no employees on their payroll, and have not retained any contractors, other than consultants and advisors in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice. Other than reimbursement of any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Switchback’s officers and directors in connection with activities on Switchback’s behalf in an aggregate amount not in excess of the amount of cash held by Switchback outside of the Trust Account, Switchback has no unsatisfied material liability with respect to any officer or director.

Switchback, Merger Sub and their Representatives have been provided with full and complete access to the Representatives, properties, offices, plants and other facilities, books and records of the Company and any Company Subsidiary and other information that they have requested in connection with their investigation of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries and the Transactions. Neither Switchback nor Merger Sub is relying on any statement, representation or warranty, oral or written, express or implied, made by the Company or any Company Subsidiary or any of their respective Representatives, except as expressly set forth in Article IV (as modified by the Company Disclosure Schedule) or in the corresponding representations and warranties contained in the certificate delivered pursuant to Section 8.02(c).

The Company agrees that, notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the Company does not now have, and shall not at any time prior to the Effective Time have, any claim to, or make any claim against, the Trust Fund, regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, the business relationship between the Company on the one hand, and Switchback on the other hand, this Agreement, or any other agreement or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to in this Section 6.03 as the “Claims”). Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, the Company hereby irrevocably waives any Claim it may have, now or in the future and will not seek recourse against the Trust Fund for any reason whatsoever in respect thereof; provided, however, that the foregoing waiver will not limit or prohibit the Company from pursuing a claim against Switchback, Merger Sub or any other person (a) for legal relief against monies or other assets of Switchback or Merger Sub held outside of the Trust Account or for specific performance or other equitable relief in connection with the Transactions or (b) for damages for breach of this Agreement against Switchback (or any successor entity) or Merger Sub in the event this Agreement is terminated for any reason and Switchback consummates a business combination transaction with another party.

(a) The Company will use reasonable best efforts to cause each of the Key Company Stockholders to execute and deliver in accordance with Section 10.01 to the Company and Switchback the Stockholder Support Agreement within twenty-four (24) hours after the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the parties hereto. If the Stockholder Support Agreement is not executed and delivered in accordance with Section 10.01 within such twenty-four (24) hour period after the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Parties (a “Support Agreement Failure”), Switchback shall have the right to terminate this Agreement as set forth in Section 9.01.

Each of the Company and Switchback shall furnish all information concerning such party as the other party may reasonably request in connection with such actions and the preparation of the Merger Materials (as defined below). Switchback and the Company each shall use their reasonable best efforts to (w) cause the Registration Statement, when filed with the SEC, to comply in all material respects with all legal requirements applicable thereto, (x) respond as promptly as reasonably practicable to and resolve all comments received from the SEC concerning the Merger Materials, (y) cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective as promptly as practicable and (z) keep the Registration Statement effective as long as is necessary to consummate the Transactions. Prior to the effective date of the Registration Statement, each of the Company and Switchback shall take all actions necessary to cause the Merger Materials to be mailed to their respective stockholders as of the applicable record date as promptly as practicable (and in any event within three (3) Business Days) following the date upon which the Registration Statement becomes effective. Each of the Company and Switchback shall otherwise reasonably assist and cooperate with the other party in the preparation of the Merger Materials and the resolution of any comments received from the SEC. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company (i) agrees to promptly provide Switchback with all information concerning the business, management, operations and financial condition of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries, in each case, reasonably requested by Switchback for inclusion in the Merger Materials and (ii) shall cause the officers and employees of the Company and the Company Subsidiaries to be reasonably available to Switchback and its counsel in connection with the drafting of the Merger Materials and to respond in a timely manner to comments on the Merger Materials from the SEC. For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Merger Materials” means the Registration Statement, including the prospectus forming a part thereof, the Consent Solicitation Statement, the Proxy Statement, and any amendments thereto.

(c) No filing of, or amendment or supplement to the Merger Materials will be made by Switchback without the approval of the Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Switchback will advise the Company, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of the time when the Registration Statement has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, of the issuance of any stop order, or of the suspension of the qualification of the Switchback Class A Common Stock to be issued or issuable to the stockholders of the Company in connection with this Agreement for offering or sale in any jurisdiction. Switchback will advise the Company, promptly after it receives notice thereof, of any request by the SEC for amendment of the Merger Materials or comments thereon and responses thereto or requests by the SEC for additional information and shall, as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof, supply the Company with copies of all written correspondence between it or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or the staff of the SEC, on the other hand, or, if not in writing, a description of such communication, with respect to the Merger Materials or the Merger. No response to any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC relating to the Merger Materials will be made by Switchback without the prior consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and without providing the Company a reasonable opportunity to review and comment thereon unless pursuant to a telephone call initiated by the SEC.

(d) Switchback represents that the information supplied by Switchback for inclusion in the Merger Materials shall not, at (i) the time the Registration Statement is declared effective, (ii) the time the Merger Materials are mailed to their respective stockholders and (iii) the time of the Switchback Stockholders’ Meeting, include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If, at any time prior to the Effective Time, any event or circumstance relating to Switchback or Merger Sub, or their respective officers or directors, should be discovered by Switchback which should be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the Merger Materials, Switchback shall promptly inform the Company.

(e) The Company represents that the information supplied by the Company for inclusion in the Merger Materials shall not, at (i) the time the Registration Statement is declared effective, (ii) the time Merger Materials are mailed to their respective stockholders and (iii) the time of the Switchback Stockholders’ Meeting, include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If, at any time prior to the Effective Time, any event or circumstance relating to the Company or any Company Subsidiary or its officers or directors, should be discovered by the Company which should be set forth in an amendment or a supplement to the Merger Materials, the Company shall promptly inform Switchback.

7.03 Consent Solicitation; Written Consent; Company Change in Recommendation.

(a) As promptly as practicable following the date upon which the Registration Statement becomes effective, the Company shall solicit the Requisite Company Stockholder Approval via written consent in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL. In connection therewith, prior to the date upon which the Registration Statement becomes effective, the Company Board shall set a record date for determining the stockholders of the Company entitled to provide such written consent. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause each Key Company Stockholder to duly execute and deliver a stockholder written consent substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F (the “Written Consent”) in respect of the shares of Company Stock beneficially owned by such Key Company Stockholder (which Key Company Stockholders hold shares of Company Stock sufficient constitute Company Stockholder Approval) in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL within forty-eight (48) hours of the Registration Statement becoming effective. As promptly as practicable following the execution and delivery of the Written Consent by the Key Company Stockholders to the Company, the Company shall deliver to Switchback a copy of such Written Consent in accordance with Section 10.01. Promptly following the receipt of the Requisite Company Stockholder Approval via the Written Consent and delivery to Switchback of a copy of such Written Consent in accordance with Section 10.01, the Company will prepare (subject to the reasonable approval of Switchback) and deliver to the stockholders of the Company who have not executed and delivered the Written Consent the notice required by Section 228(e) of the DGCL and include a description of the appraisal rights of the stockholders of the Company available under Section 262 of the DGCL along with such other information as is required thereunder and pursuant to applicable Law. If the Key Company Stockholders fail to deliver the Written Consent to the Company within forty-eight (48) hours of the Registration Statement becoming effective (a “Written Consent Failure”), Switchback shall have the right to terminate this Agreement as set forth in Section 9.01.

(b) The Consent Solicitation Statement shall include the Company Recommendation. Neither the Company Board nor any committee thereof shall: (i) withdraw, modify, amend or qualify (or propose to withdraw, modify, amend or qualify publicly) the Company Recommendation, or fail to include the Company Recommendation in the Consent Solicitation Statement; (ii) approve, recommend or declare advisable (or publicly propose to do so) any Alternative Transaction; (iii) fail to publicly announce, within ten (10) Business Days after a tender offer or exchange offer relating to the equity securities of the Company shall have been commenced by any third party other than Switchback and its affiliates, a statement disclosing that the Company Board recommends rejection of such tender or exchange offer (for the avoidance of doubt, the taking of no position or a neutral position by the Company Board in respect of the acceptance of any such tender offer or exchange offer as of the end of such period shall constitute a failure to publicly announce that the Company Board recommends rejection of such tender or exchange offer); or (iv) if requested by Switchback, fail to issue, within ten (10) Business Days after an Alternative Transaction (other than any tender offer or exchange offer) is publicly announced, a press release reaffirming the Company Recommendation (any action described in clauses (i) through (iv) being referred to as a “Company Change in Recommendation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company Board, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, determines in good faith that failure to effect a Company Change in Recommendation would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under applicable Law, then the Company Board may effect a Company Change in Recommendation so long as the Company (to the extent lawful and reasonably practicable) first provides Switchback with at least 48 hours advance written notice of such withdrawal or modification.

(c) Notwithstanding (i) any Company Change in Recommendation, (ii) the making of any inquiry or proposal with respect to an Alternative Transaction or (iii) anything to the contrary contained herein, unless this Agreement has been earlier validly terminated in accordance with Section 9.01, (A) in no event shall the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries execute or enter into any agreement in principle, confidentiality agreement, letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, term sheet, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other written arrangement relating to any Alternative Transaction or terminate this Agreement in connection therewith and (B) the Company shall otherwise remain subject to the terms of this Agreement, including the Company’s obligation to use reasonable best efforts to cause each Key Company Stockholder to duly execute and deliver the Written Consent and to otherwise solicit the Requisite Company Stockholder Approval in accordance with Section 7.03(a).

7.04 Switchback Stockholders’ Meeting; and Merger Sub Stockholder’s Approval.

(a) Switchback shall call and hold the Switchback Stockholders’ Meeting as promptly as practicable after the date on which the Registration Statement becomes effective for the purpose of voting solely upon the Switchback Proposals, and Switchback shall use its reasonable best efforts to hold the Switchback Stockholders’ Meeting as soon as practicable after the date on which the Registration Statement becomes effective; provided, that Switchback may (or, upon the receipt of a request to do so from the Company, shall) postpone or adjourn the Switchback Stockholders’ Meeting on one or more occasions for up to 45 days in the aggregate to the extent that such postponement or adjournment is reasonably necessary to solicit additional proxies to obtain approval of the Switchback Proposals or otherwise take actions consistent with Switchback’s obligations pursuant to Section 7.09. Switchback shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the approval of the Switchback Proposals at the Switchback Stockholders’ Meeting, including by soliciting from its stockholders proxies as promptly as possible in favor of the Switchback Proposals, and shall take all other action necessary or advisable to secure the required vote or consent of its stockholders. The Switchback Board shall recommend to its stockholders that they approve the Switchback Proposals (the “Switchback Recommendation”) and shall include the Switchback Recommendation in the Proxy Statement. Neither the Switchback Board nor any committee thereof shall: (i) withdraw, modify, amend or qualify (or propose to withdraw, modify, amend or qualify publicly) the Switchback Recommendation, or fail to include the Switchback Recommendation in the Proxy Statement; or (ii) approve, recommend or declare advisable (or publicly propose to do so) any Switchback Alternative Transaction (any action described in clauses (i) through (ii) being referred to as a “Switchback Change in Recommendation”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Switchback Board, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, determines in good faith that failure to effect a Switchback Change in Recommendation would be reasonably likely to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of Switchback under applicable Law, then the Switchback Board may effect a Switchback Change in Recommendation so long as Switchback (to the extent lawful and reasonably practicable) first provides the Company with at least 48 hours advance written notice of such withdrawal or modification.

(b) Notwithstanding (i) any Switchback Change in Recommendation, (ii) the making of any inquiry or proposal with respect to a Switchback Alternative Transaction or (iii) anything to the contrary contained herein, unless this Agreement has been earlier validly terminated in accordance with Section 9.01, (A) in no event shall Switchback or Merger Sub execute or enter into any agreement in principle, confidentiality agreement, letter of intent, memorandum of understanding, term sheet, acquisition agreement, merger agreement, option agreement, joint venture agreement, partnership agreement or other written arrangement relating to any Switchback Alternative Transaction or terminate this Agreement in connection therewith and (B) Switchback and Merger Sub shall otherwise remain subject to the terms of this Agreement, including Switchback’s obligation to use reasonable best efforts to obtain the approval of the Switchback Proposals at the Switchback Stockholders’ Meeting in accordance with Section 7.04(a).

(c) Promptly following the execution of this Agreement, Switchback shall approve and adopt this Agreement and approve the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as the sole stockholder of Merger Sub.

7.05 Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a) From the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, the Company and Switchback shall (and shall cause their respective subsidiaries to): (i) provide to the other party (and the other party’s officers, directors, employees, accountants, consultants, legal counsel, agents and other representatives, collectively, “Representatives”) reasonable access at reasonable times upon prior notice to the officers, employees, agents, properties, offices and other facilities of such party and its Subsidiaries and to the books and records thereof; and (ii) furnish promptly to the other party such information concerning the business, properties, contracts, assets, liabilities, personnel and other aspects of such party and its Subsidiaries as the other party or its Representatives may reasonably request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor Switchback shall be required to provide access to or disclose information where the access or disclosure would jeopardize the protection of attorney-client privilege or contravene applicable Law (it being agreed that the parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause such information to be provided in a manner that would not result in such jeopardy or contravention).

(b) All information obtained by the parties pursuant to this Section 7.05 shall be kept confidential in accordance with the confidentiality agreement, dated August 3, 2020 (the “Confidentiality Agreement”), between Switchback and the Company.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, each party (and its respective Representatives) may consult any Tax advisor as is reasonably necessary regarding the Tax treatment and Tax structure of the Transactions and may disclose to such advisor as if reasonably necessary, the intended Tax treatment and Tax structure of the Transactions and all materials (including any Tax analysis) that are provided relating to such treatment or structure, in each case in accordance with the Confidentiality Agreement.

7.06 Incentive Equity Plan; ESPP. The Omnibus Incentive Plan Proposal shall provide that a number of shares of Switchback Class A Common Stock, which number shall be mutually agreed upon between Switchback and the Company, shall be reserved for issuance pursuant to the Omnibus Incentive Plan. The ESPP Proposal shall provide that a number of shares of Switchback Class A Common Stock, which number shall be mutually agreed upon between Switchback and the Company, shall be reserved for issuance pursuant to the ESPP. Subject to approval of the Omnibus Incentive Plan Proposal and/or the ESPP Proposal, following the Effective Time Switchback shall cause the issuance of shares of Switchback Class A Common Stock under the Omnibus Incentive Plan and/or the ESPP, as applicable, to be registered with the SEC on a Form S-8 Registration Statement.

7.07 Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification.

(a) The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, exculpation, advancement or expense reimbursement than are set forth in the charter or bylaws of the Company, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years from the Effective Time in any manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Effective Time, were directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries or agents of the Company, unless such modification shall be required by applicable Law. Switchback further agrees that with respect to the provisions of the charter, bylaws or limited liability company agreements of the Company Subsidiaries relating to indemnification, exculpation, advancement or expense reimbursement, such provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years from the Effective Time in any manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Effective Time, were directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries or agents of such Company Subsidiary, unless such modification shall be required by applicable Law. For a period of six years from the Effective Time, Switchback agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of the Company or any Company Subsidiary against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent that the Company would have been permitted under applicable Law, the Company Certificate of Incorporation or the bylaws of the Company, the charter, bylaws or limited liability company agreements of the Company Subsidiary, or any indemnification agreement in effect on the date of this Agreement to indemnify or exculpate such person (including the advancing of expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law).

(b) The certificate of incorporation and bylaws of Switchback shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, exculpation, advancement or expense reimbursement than are set forth as of the date hereof in the charter or bylaws of Switchback and the Merger Sub, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years from the Effective Time in any manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Effective Time, were directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries or agents of Switchback, unless such modification shall be required by applicable Law. Switchback further agrees that with respect to the provisions of the charter or bylaws of Switchback as of the date hereof relating to indemnification, exculpation, advancement or expense reimbursement, such provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years from the Effective Time in any manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Effective Time, were directors, officers, employees, fiduciaries or agents of Switchback, unless such modification shall be required by applicable Law. For a period of six years from the Effective Time, Switchback agrees that it shall indemnify and hold harmless each present and former director and officer of Switchback against any costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent that Switchback would have been permitted under applicable Law, the Switchback certificate of incorporation or the bylaws of Switchback or the Merger Sub, or any indemnification agreement in effect on the date of this Agreement to indemnify or exculpate such person (including the advancing of expenses as incurred to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law).

(c) For a period of six years from the Effective Time, Switchback shall maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance (“D&O Insurance”) covering those persons who are currently covered by the Company’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (true, correct and complete copies of which have been heretofore made available to Switchback or its agents or Representatives) (the “Company D&O Insurance”) on terms not less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage, except that in no event shall Switchback be required to pay an annual premium for such insurance in excess of 300% of the aggregate annual premium payable by the Company for such insurance policy for the year ended December 31, 2019 (the “Maximum Annual Premium”). If the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed the Maximum Annual Premium, then Switchback will be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding the Maximum Annual Premium from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company may purchase a prepaid “tail” policy with respect to the Company D&O Insurance from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance carrier so long as the aggregate cost for such “tail” policy does not exceed the Maximum Annual Premium. If the Company elects to purchase such a “tail” policy prior to the Effective Time, Switchback will maintain such “tail” policy in full force and effect for a period of no less than six years after the Effective Time and continue to honor its obligations thereunder. If the Company is unable to obtain the “tail” policy and Switchback is unable to obtain the insurance described in this Section 7.07(b) for an amount less than or equal to the Maximum Annual Premium, Switchback will instead obtain as much comparable insurance as possible for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Annual Premium.

(d) Prior to the Effective Time, Switchback may purchase a prepaid “tail” policy (a “Switchback Tail Policy”) with respect to the D&O Insurance covering those persons who are currently covered by Switchback’s directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies (the “Switchback D&O Insurance”). If Switchback elects to purchase such a Switchback Tail Policy prior to the Effective Time, Switchback will maintain such Switchback Tail Policy in full force and effect for a period of no less than six years after the Effective Time and continue to honor its obligations thereunder.

(e) With respect to any claims that may be made under the Company D&O Insurance or the Switchback D&O Insurance or any applicable “tail” policies, (i) prior to the Effective Time, Switchback and the Company shall cooperate with the other party as reasonably requested by such other Party, and (ii) after the Effective Time, Switchback shall cooperate with any person insured by such policies as reasonably requested by such Person. For the avoidance of doubt, any D&O Insurance intended to cover claims arising out of or pertaining to matters existing or occurring after the Effective Time (the “Go-forward D&O Insurance”) shall be a post-Closing expense of Switchback.

(f) On the Closing Date, Switchback shall enter into customary indemnification agreements reasonably satisfactory to each of the Company and Switchback with the post-Closing directors and officers of Switchback, which indemnification agreements shall continue to be effective following the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, the indemnification agreements with the pre-Closing directors and officers of Switchback in effect as of the date hereof and listed on Section 7.07(f) of the Switchback Disclosure Schedule shall continue to be effective following the Closing, and Switchback shall continue to honor its obligations thereunder.

(g) For the avoidance of doubt, any costs incurred by Switchback pursuant to this Section 7.07 shall not constitute a Switchback Transaction Cost.

7.08 Notification of Certain Matters. The Company shall give prompt notice to Switchback, and Switchback shall give prompt notice to the Company, of any event which a party becomes aware of between the date of this Agreement and the Closing (or the earlier termination of this Agreement in accordance with Article IX), the occurrence, or non-occurrence of which causes or would reasonably be expected to cause any of the conditions set forth in Article VIII to fail. For clarity, unintentional failure to give notice under this Section 7.08 shall not be deemed to be a breach of covenant under this Section 7.08 and shall constitute only a breach of the underlying representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition, as the case may be.

7.09 Further Action; Reasonable Best Efforts.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, appropriate action, and to do, or cause to be done, such things as are necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws or otherwise, and each shall cooperate with the other, to consummate and make effective the Transactions, including using its reasonable best efforts to obtain all permits, consents, approvals, authorizations, qualifications and orders of, and the expiration or termination of waiting periods by, Governmental Authorities and parties to contracts with the Company and the Company Subsidiaries as set forth in Section 4.05 necessary for the consummation of the Transactions and to fulfill the conditions to the Merger. In case, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the proper officers and directors of each party shall use their reasonable best efforts to take all such action.

(b) Each of the parties shall keep each other apprised of the status of matters relating to the Transactions, including promptly notifying the other parties of any communication it or any of its affiliates receives from any Governmental Authority relating to the matters that are the subject of this Agreement and permitting the other parties to review in advance, and to the extent practicable consult about, any proposed communication by such party to any Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions. No party to this Agreement shall agree to participate in any meeting, or video or telephone conference, with any Governmental Authority in respect of any filings, investigation or other inquiry unless it consults with the other parties in advance and, to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority, gives the other parties the opportunity to attend and participate at such meeting or conference. Subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, the parties will coordinate and cooperate fully with each other in exchanging such information and providing such assistance as the other parties may reasonably request in connection with the foregoing. Subject to the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement, the parties will provide each other with copies of all material correspondence, filings or communications, including any documents, information and data contained therewith, between them or any of their Representatives, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement and the Transactions contemplated hereby.

(c) Except to the extent provided in writing by the Company, Switchback shall not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, permit any waiver (in whole or in part) of or provide consent to (including consent to termination), any provision or remedy under any of the Subscription Agreements in a manner adverse to the Company. Switchback shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to (i) consummate the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements on the terms and conditions described therein, including maintaining in effect the Subscription Agreements and enforcing the terms thereof, (ii) satisfy in all material respects on a timely basis all conditions and covenants applicable to Switchback in the Subscription Agreements and otherwise comply with its obligations thereunder, (iii) in the event that all conditions in the Subscription Agreements (other than conditions that Switchback or any of its affiliates control the satisfaction of and other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied, consummate the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements at or prior to Closing; (iv) confer with the Company regarding timing of the Closing (as defined in the Subscription Agreements); and (v) deliver notices to counterparties to the Subscription Agreements sufficiently in advance of the Closing to cause them to fund their obligations as far in advance of the Closing as permitted by the Subscription Agreements. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Switchback shall give the Company, prompt written notice: (A) of any amendment to any Subscription Agreement; (B) of any breach or default (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, could give rise to any breach or default) by any party to any Subscription Agreement known to Switchback; (C) of the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any party to any Subscription Agreement with respect to any actual, potential, threatened or claimed expiration, lapse, withdrawal, breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to any Subscription Agreement or any provisions of any Subscription Agreement; and (D) if Switchback does not expect to receive all or any portion of the PIPE Investment Amount on the terms, in the manner or from the PIPE Investors as contemplated by the Subscription Agreements.

Furthermore, nothing contained in this Section 7.10 shall prevent Switchback or the Company and/or its respective affiliates from furnishing customary or other reasonable information concerning the Transactions to their investors and prospective investors that is substantively consistent with public statements previously consented to by the other party in accordance with this Section 7.10.

The parties hereto agree to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be requested pursuant to Antitrust Laws and to take all other actions necessary, proper or advisable to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods or obtain required approvals, as applicable under Antitrust Laws as soon as practicable, including by requesting early termination of the waiting period provided for under the HSR Act.

(b) Switchback and the Company each shall, in connection with its efforts to obtain all requisite approvals and expiration or termination of waiting periods for the Transactions under any Antitrust Law, use its reasonable best efforts to: (i) cooperate in all respects with each other party or its affiliates in connection with any filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private person; (ii) keep the other reasonably informed of any communication received by such party from, or given by such party to, any Governmental Authority and of any communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private person, in each case regarding any of the Transactions, and promptly furnish the other with copies of all such written communications (with the exception of the filings, if any, submitted under the HSR Act); (iii) permit the other to review in advance any written communication to be given by it to, and consult with each other in advance of any meeting or video or telephonic conference with, any Governmental Authority or, in connection with any proceeding by a private person, with any other person, and to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority or other person, give the other the opportunity to attend and participate in such in person, video or telephonic meetings and conferences; (iv) in the event a party is prohibited from participating in or attending any in person, video or telephonic meetings or conferences, the other shall keep such party promptly and reasonably apprised with respect thereto; and (v) use reasonable best efforts to cooperate in the filing of any memoranda, white papers, filings, correspondence or other written communications explaining or defending the Transactions, articulating any regulatory or competitive argument, and/or responding to requests or objections made by any Governmental Authority; provided, that materials required to be provided pursuant to this Section 7.12(b) may be restricted to outside counsel and may be redacted (vi) to remove references concerning the valuation of the Company, and (vii) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements.

(c) No party hereto shall take any action that could reasonably be expected to adversely affect or materially delay the approval of any Governmental Authority, or the expiration or termination of any waiting period under Antitrust Laws, including by agreeing to merge with or acquire any other person or acquire a substantial portion of the assets of or equity in any other person. The parties hereto further covenant and agree, with respect to a threatened or pending preliminary or permanent injunction or other order, decree or ruling or statute, rule, regulation or executive order that would adversely affect the ability of the parties to consummate the Transactions, to use reasonable best efforts to prevent or lift the entry, enactment or promulgation thereof, as the case may be.

7.13 Trust Account. As of the Effective Time, the obligations of Switchback to dissolve or liquidate within a specified time period as contained in the Switchback Certificate of Incorporation will be terminated and Switchback shall have no obligation whatsoever to dissolve and liquidate the assets of Switchback by reason of the consummation of the Merger or otherwise, and no stockholder of Switchback shall be entitled to receive any amount from the Trust Account. At least 48 hours prior to the Effective Time, Switchback shall provide notice to the Trustee in accordance with the Trust Agreement and shall deliver any other documents, opinions or notices required to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to the Trust Agreement and cause the Trustee prior to the Effective Time to, and the Trustee shall thereupon be obligated to, transfer all funds held in the Trust Account to Switchback (to be held as available cash for immediate use on the balance sheet of Switchback, and to be used (a) to pay the Company’s and Switchback’s unpaid transaction expenses in connection with this Agreement and the Transactions and (b) thereafter, for working capital and other general corporate purposes of the business following the Closing) and thereafter shall cause the Trust Account and the Trust Agreement to terminate.

7.14 Tax Matters. This Agreement is intended to constitute, and the parties hereto hereby adopt this Agreement as, a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a). Each of Switchback, Merger Sub and the Company shall use its respective reasonable best efforts to: (a)(i) cause the Merger to qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code (including, if the Company and Switchback jointly determine it is advisable after consultation with their respective tax advisors, considering a merger of the Company with and into Switchback, or an entity disregarded as separate from Switchback for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, promptly after Closing to qualify such merger and the Merger, taken together, as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(A) of the Code in accordance with IRS Rev. Rul. 2001-46), and (ii) not (and not permit or cause any of their affiliates, subsidiaries or Representatives to) take any action which to its knowledge could reasonably be expected to materially prevent or impede the Merger from qualifying as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, (b) report the Merger as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code unless otherwise required pursuant to a change in applicable law, including attaching the statement described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-3(a) on or with its Tax Return for the taxable year of the Merger, and (c) cause the Surviving Corporation to continue the Company’s historic business or use a significant portion of the Company’s historic business assets in a business, in each case, to the extent required pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-1(d). For the avoidance of doubt, except as otherwise required pursuant to this Agreement, no party (or its respective affiliates and owners) shall be required to satisfy its obligations pursuant to this Section 7.14 by altering the consideration payable pursuant to Article III. To the extent the parties reasonably determine the Transactions qualify as a tax-free incorporation pursuant to Section 351 of the Code, either in addition to or in lieu of the “reorganization” treatment discussed above, the parties agree to undertake similar obligations as set forth in this Section 7.14 in respect of such tax-free incorporation treatment.

7.15 Directors. Switchback shall take all necessary action so that immediately after the Effective Time, the board of directors of Switchback is comprised of the individuals nominated for election in the Registration Statement.

7.19 Side Letter and Investor Agreements. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to, and shall cause the Company Subsidiaries to use reasonable best efforts to, (a) terminate (i) each Side Letter Agreement, other than those Side Letter Agreements that expire on their own terms, and (ii) each of the Company Voting Agreement and the Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement at or prior to the Closing and (b) terminate, or amend and restate in form reasonably satisfactory to Switchback, the Investors’ Rights Agreement.

Each of the parties 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 that foregoing waiver and (b) acknowledges that it and the other hereto have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the Transactions, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 10.07.

10.08 Headings. The descriptive headings contained in this Agreement are included for convenience of reference only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

10.09 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

10.10 Specific Performance.

(a) The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof, and, accordingly, that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the performance of the terms and provisions hereof (including the parties’ obligation to consummate the Merger) in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, County of Newcastle, or, if that court does not have jurisdiction, any court of the United States located in the State of Delaware without proof of actual damages or otherwise, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at Law or in equity as expressly permitted in this Agreement. Each of the parties hereby further waives (i) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at Law would be adequate and (ii) any requirement under any Law to post security or a bond as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if prior to the Outside Date any party initiates an Action to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, then the Outside Date will be automatically extended by: (1) the amount of time during which such Action is pending plus 20 Business Days; or (2) such other time period established by the court presiding over such Action.

10.11 No Recourse. All claims, obligations, liabilities, or causes of action (whether in contract or in tort, in Law or in equity or otherwise, or granted by statute or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil or any other theory or doctrine, including alter ego or otherwise) that may be based upon, in respect of, arise under, out or by reason of, be connected with, or relate in any manner to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents, or the negotiation, execution, or performance or non-performance of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents (including any representation or warranty made in, in connection with, or as an inducement to, this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents), may be made only against (and such representations and warranties are those solely of) the persons that are expressly identified as parties to this Agreement or the applicable Transaction Document (the “Contracting Parties”) except as set forth in this Section 10.11. In no event shall any Contracting Party have any shared or vicarious liability for the actions or omissions of any other person. No person who is not a Contracting Party, including any current, former or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, manager, stockholder, affiliate, agent, financing source, attorney or Representative or assignee of any Contracting Party, or any current, former or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, manager, stockholder, affiliate, agent, financing source, attorney or Representative or assignee of any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Nonparty Affiliates”), shall have any liability (whether in contract or in tort, in Law or in equity or otherwise, or granted by statute or otherwise, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company veil or any other theory or doctrine, including alter ego or otherwise) for any obligations or liabilities arising under, out of, in connection with, or related in any manner to this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of this Agreement or the other Transaction Documents or their negotiation, execution, performance, or breach, except with respect to willful misconduct or common law fraud against the person who committed such willful misconduct or common law fraud, and, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law; and each party hereto waives and releases all such liabilities, claims, causes of action and obligations against any such Nonparty Affiliates. The parties acknowledge and agree that the Nonparty Affiliates are intended third-party beneficiaries of this Section 10.11. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, none of the Contracting Parties or any Nonparty Affiliate shall be responsible or liable for any multiple, consequential, indirect, special, statutory, exemplary or punitive damages which may be alleged as a result of this Agreement, the Transaction Documents or any other agreement referenced herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder, or the termination or abandonment of any of the foregoing.
