EXECUTIVE OPTION PLAN – RESIDUAL POOL AWARD AGREEMENT

(Under the 2017 Bowlmor AMF Corp. Stock Incentive Plan)

THIS AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Award Agreement”) is made and entered into as of January 7, 2020 between Bowlmor AMF Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Thomas F. Shannon (the “Participant”).

The Company and the Participant wish to agree to the treatment of unallocated awards under the 2017 Bowlmor AMF Corp. Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) as set forth in Section 1 of this Award Agreement.

The Company hereby grants to the Participant an option to purchase certain Common Shares on the terms and conditions as set forth in this Award Agreement and subject to the terms of the Plan (the “Option”). The Option is a Nonqualified Option. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Plan.

In accordance with this grant, and as a condition thereto, the Company and the Participant agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Date of Grant; Exercise Price; Number of Common Shares. The Executive Option Plan – Residual Pool Award Notice of Grant (the “Grant Notice”) attached hereto sets forth the date of grant of the Option (the “Grant Date”) and the per share exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) applicable to the Option. The Grant Notice sets forth the number of Common Shares which are the subject of the Option as of the Grant Date, provided that the number of Common Shares subject to the Option shall be automatically reduced as of the issuance of Awards (the “Additional Awards”) under the Plan to other Eligible Individuals (as determined by the Committee in consultation with the CEO) with such reduction to be a number of Common Shares that represents 75% of each Common Share underlying an Additional Award (the Common Shares subject to the Option at any time, the “Option Shares”). Any fractional shares resulting from the foregoing reduction shall be eliminated at the time of exercise of the Option. The Exercise Price is at least the fair market value of a Common Share as of the Grant Date.

SECTION 2. Term. The Option shall not be exercisable to any extent after the twelfth (12th) anniversary of the Grant Date.

SECTION 3. Vesting.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, the Option will become fully vested and exercisable as of the date of a Sale of the Company (as defined below) or Triggering IPO (as defined below), subject to the Participant’s continued service with the Company or its Subsidiaries as of the date of the Sale of the Company or Triggering IPO.

(b) For the purposes of this Award Agreement, the terms below shall have the meaning designated:

(i) “Atairos Investors” include A-B Parent LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the Atairos Entities, their Affiliates and their Permitted Transferees.

2

(ii) “Atairos Cumulative Interest” means the greatest amount of the Atairos Investors’ collective interest, direct or indirect, in the Company acquired at any time prior to a Sale of the Company.

(iii) “Initial Investors” include (i) the Atairos Investors, (ii) Cobalt Recreation LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, (iii) Thomas F. Shannon and (iv) Atairos Group, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company.

(iv) “Initial Investors Cumulative Interest” means the greatest amount of the Initial Investors’ collective interest, direct or indirect, in the Company acquired at any time prior to a Sale of the Company or Triggering IPO, as the case may be.

(v) “Sale of the Company” means (1) a negotiated sale of interests in the Company pursuant to a stock sale, exchange or similar transaction (other than a Triggering IPO) or a merger of the Company into another company, provided that any such transaction results in either (x) the Initial Investors having divested 50% or more of each of their relative portions of the Initial Investors Cumulative Interest to one or more parties all of whom are not affiliates of the Initial Investors or (y) the Atairos Investors having divested 77% or more of the Atairos Cumulative Interest to one or more parties all of whom are not affiliates of the Initial Investors; or (2) a sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the business conducted by the Company and its Subsidiaries to one or more parties, other than parties that the Initial Investors control or in which the Initial Investors own a majority interest.

(vi) “Triggering IPO” means an underwritten public offering of Common Shares pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended), other than pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any similar or successor form, in which the Initial Investors are secondary sellers and after which each of the Initial Investors will have divested 15% or more of each of their relative portions of the Initial Investors Cumulative Interest.

(c) All determinations and measurements required to compute the Atairos Cumulative Interest or the Initial Investors Cumulative Interest or other amounts under this Award Agreement, and to determine whether any transaction constitutes a Sale of the Company or Triggering IPO, shall be made by the Board in its reasonable good faith judgment and shall be final and binding on all parties for all purposes under this Award Agreement.

SECTION 4. Exercise.

(a) Exercise of the Option, in whole or in part, shall be by delivery of a notice to the Company as provided in Section 12 which specifies the number of Option Shares being purchased.

(b) Payment of the Exercise Price may, at the Participant’s election, be made by the Company withholding from the person providing the notice described in Section 4(a) a net number of Option Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the Exercise Price as of the date of the exercise.

(c) The Company has the authority to deduct or withhold, or require the Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable federal, state, local and foreign withholding taxes (including the employee portion of any FICA obligation) required by law to be withheld with respect to any taxable event arising pursuant to this Award Agreement. Payment of the withholding taxes or Participant’s other tax obligations arising from the exercise of the Option (the “Applicable Taxes”) may, at the Participant’s election, be made by the Company withholding upon the exercise of the Option a net number of Option Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the Applicable Taxes as of the date of the exercise.

3

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, upon any exercise of the Option (x) the Common Shares are listed and traded on a national U.S. retail securities exchange and the Option Shares are covered by an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and an appropriate listing application, (y) a broker-assisted cashless exercise procedure is freely available to the Participant and (z) there is no legal or contractual impediment to the Participant’s use of the broker-assisted cashless exercise procedure, Section 4(a) shall not apply with respect to the exercise of the Option and instead the person exercising the Option will be required to fund the Exercise Price and Applicable Taxes with cash and/or through effecting a broker-assisted cashless exercise.

Option Shares to be issued upon the exercise of the Option may be either authorized and unissued Common Shares or Common Shares which have been reacquired by the Company.

SECTION 5. Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan), the Committee shall not be able to take the actions described in Sections 7.01(a), (c), (d), or

(e) of the Plan with respect to the Option, in each case, without the consent of the Participant. However, for the avoidance of doubt, the Committee shall have full discretion, subject to any applicable regulatory approvals, to take whatever actions that it deems necessary or appropriate to accomplish the action described in Section 7.01(b) of the Plan and the terms of the Stockholders’ Agreement with respect to the Option and the underlying Option Shares.

SECTION 6. Termination of Employment or Service. In the event of a termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the Exercise Date for any reason (including a termination by the Company or Participant for any reason or as a result of the death or disability of the Participant), the Option shall be deemed immediately forfeited and canceled in its entirety upon such termination of employment or service without any payment or consideration being due from the Company.

SECTION 7. Representations. The Participant represents and warrants that:

(a) The Participant is an executive officer of the Company and is qualified to purchase the Option Shares because he or she has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that he or she is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of such investment.

(b) Any Option Shares will be for the Participant’s own account for investment and not with any view to the distribution thereof, and the Participant will not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of the Option Shares, or any interest therein, in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law.

4

(c) The Participant understands that (i) the Option Shares will not be registered under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities law and may not be sold or otherwise disposed of unless they are registered or sold or otherwise disposed of in a transaction that is exempt from such registration; and (ii) the certificates representing such Option Shares will bear appropriate legends restricting the transferability thereof.

(d) The Participant understands that the Company Group will rely upon the completeness and accuracy of these representations in establishing that the contemplated transactions are exempt from the Securities Act and hereby affirms that all such representations are accurate and complete. The Participant will notify the Company immediately of any changes in any of such information occurring during the term of the Option.

SECTION 8. Restrictive Covenants.

(a) As a condition precedent to receiving the Option granted pursuant to this Award Agreement, the Participant hereby reaffirms the Participant’s agreement to the restrictive covenants set forth in the Employment Agreement and the Stockholders’ Agreement.

(b) It is acknowledged and agreed that any material breach by the Participant of any of the applicable restrictive covenants described in Section 8(a) (relating to confidentiality, noncompetition, non-hire, non-solicitation obligations or other obligations described therein and subject to all applicable notice and cure provisions in the relevant agreements) will be a

“Restrictive Covenant Breach” for the purpose of the Stockholders’ Agreement.

SECTION 9. Integration of Stockholders’ Agreement and Award Terms; Spousal Consent. In consideration of, and as a condition to, the effectiveness of the Option, to the extent that the Participant is not already a Stockholder (as defined in the Stockholders’ Agreement), the Participant must execute and deliver to the Company an instrument or instruments substantially in the form of Exhibit A hereto confirming that the Participant has agreed to be bound as a “Stockholder” and “Management Stockholder” by the terms of the Stockholders’ Agreement.

The Participant agrees to cause any current or future spouse of his or hers to deliver to the Company a consent in the form of the consent set forth in Exhibit B hereto validly executed by such spouse on the date hereof or promptly after any such person becomes his or her spouse, as applicable.
