With respect to any Holder of Preferred Shares or Common Shares, in each case, that delivers a Letter of Transmittal accompanied by any outstanding Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss accompanied by any indemnity agreement required by Section 4.6 in lieu thereof, if applicable) to Monocle at or prior to the Effective Time, Monocle shall instruct the Exchange Agent to pay such Holder the amount to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to Section 4.1(b) or Section 4.1(c), as applicable, at the Closing. Pending such surrender and exchange of a Holder’s Certificate(s) and subject to this Article IV, a Holder’s valid Certificate(s) shall be deemed to evidence such Holder’s right to receive the portion of the applicable Merger Consideration and the contingent portion of the Earnout Shares (as applicable) into which such Preferred Shares or Common Shares shall have been converted by the Second Merger. From and after the Effective Time, all previous Holders of Preferred Shares or Common Shares shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company other than the right to receive the applicable Merger Consideration and the contingent right to receive Earnout Shares (as applicable) into which the shares have been converted pursuant to this Agreement upon the surrender of the Certificates, without interest. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificates formerly representing shares of Preferred Stock or Common Stock are presented to the Surviving Corporation, Monocle or the Exchange Agent for any reason, such Certificates shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Article IV. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of Preferred Shares or Common Shares on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation.

(c) Each Holder of In-the-Money SARs shall be entitled to receive from the Exchange Agent or the Surviving Corporation through the Surviving Corporation’s (or its Affiliate’s) payroll system, subject to withholding for Taxes, which amounts shall be paid by the Surviving Corporation to the applicable Governmental Authority, such portion of the applicable Merger Consideration to which such Holder is entitled pursuant to Section 4.1(b) with respect to all In-the-Money SARs held by such Holder.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no fraction of a share of NewCo Common Stock or NewCo Convertible Preferred Stock will be issued by virtue of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby, and each Person who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of NewCo Common Stock or NewCo Convertible Preferred Stock (in each case after aggregating all fractional shares of NewCo Common Stock or NewCo Convertible Preferred Stock, as applicable, that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall instead have the number of shares of NewCo Common Stock or NewCo Convertible Preferred Stock, as applicable, issued to such Person rounded up or down to the nearest whole share of NewCo Common Stock or NewCo Convertible Preferred Stock, as applicable (with 0.5 of a share or greater rounded up).

4.4 Repayment of Funded Debt. Subject to the other terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, (a) immediately prior to the Closing, (i) NewCo or Merger Sub 2 shall make available to the Borrowers, or pay directly, an amount sufficient to pay the Funded Debt under the Credit Documents and (ii) the Borrowers, if such amount is not paid directly by NewCo or Merger Sub 2, shall apply such cash to pay the Funded Debt under the Credit Documents and (b) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Borrowers shall procure from the applicable lenders or investors of the Funded Debt under the Credit Documents and deliver to Monocle payoff letters (or other customary evidence) with respect to all Funded Debt under the Credit Documents on the Closing Date (but immediately prior to the Closing) evidencing (i) the satisfaction of all liabilities under the applicable Credit Documents (other than those liabilities that expressly survive the termination thereof) upon receipt of the amounts set forth therein and (ii) in the case of the First Lien Credit Documents, releases in customary forms concurrently with the repayment of such obligations under the First Lien Credit Documents of all Liens with respect to the capital stock, property and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries relating to such Funded Debt.

4.5 Exchange Agent. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Funding Amount as directed by Monocle; provided, however, that no such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to the Holders pursuant to this Article IV. Any interest or other income resulting from such investments shall be paid to Monocle, upon demand. Promptly following the date which is twelve (12) months after the Effective Time, Monocle shall instruct the Exchange Agent to deliver to Monocle any remaining portion of the Funding Amount, Letters of Transmittal, Certificates and other documents in its possession relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Exchange Agent’s duties shall terminate. Thereafter, each Holder of a Certificate may look only to Monocle or the Surviving Corporation (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws), as general creditors thereof, for satisfaction of its claim for Merger Consideration that such Holder may have the right to receive pursuant to this Article IV without any interest thereon.

4.6 Lost Certificate. In the event any Certificate has been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed, the delivery of the Letter of Transmittal, and, if required by the Exchange Agent, the posting by such Person of a bond in such amount as the Exchange Agent may determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof as determined in accordance with this Article IV.

(a) None of Monocle, NewCo, the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person for any portion of the Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any portion of the Merger Consideration that remains undistributed to the Holders as of immediately prior to the date on which the Merger Consideration would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(b) Each of Monocle, NewCo, the Surviving Corporation and the Exchange Agent (without duplication) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Holder pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under any applicable Law. Any amounts so deducted and withheld shall be paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authority and shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Holder in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. Without limitation of the foregoing, such withholding (i) with respect to the payments to Holders of In-the-Money SARs described in Sections 4.1(b)(iii)(A) and 4.1(c)(iii)(A), as applicable, shall be deducted solely from the cash payments described in Sections 4.1(b)(iii)(A)(x) and 4.1(c)(iii)(A)(x), respectively (and, to the extent such cash payments are insufficient to satisfy any such required withholding, any additional withholding shall be deducted from the applicable Holder’s first payroll payment (and, if necessary, any subsequent payroll payments) from the Surviving Corporation or its applicable Affiliate that is on or following the Effective Time in accordance with such Surviving Corporation’s or Affiliate’s ordinary payroll procedures), and (ii) with respect to any issuance of Earnout Shares to Holders of In-the-Money SARs (as described in Section 4.8) may be effectuated through any means established by NewCo and reasonably acceptable to the Holder Representative, including, without limitation, requiring cash payment of any such withholding by such Holders to the NewCo for remittance to the applicable Governmental Authority, a “net settlement” (or “cashless” settlement) procedure through which NewCo withholds a number of Earnout Shares from such Holder with a value equal to the applicable required withholding, additional payroll deductions for such withholding from any other compensation payable by NewCo or its Affiliates to such Holder, or any combination of the foregoing, in each case subject to applicable Law.

(a) From and after the Closing until the fifth (5th) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Earnout Period”), upon the occurrence of any of the following, NewCo shall issue up to an additional two million five hundred thousand (2,500,000) shares of NewCo Common Stock (the “Earnout Shares”) to the Holders of Common Shares and the Holders of In-the-Money SARs that received a contingent right to receive Earnout Shares pursuant to Section 4.1(b)(ii) or Section 4.1(b)(iii), respectively (collectively, the “Earnout Holders”), as additional consideration for the Second Merger, fully paid and free and clear of all Liens other than Permitted Liens or Liens pursuant to any Contract to which an Earnout Holder is or may become a party:

(i) if the NewCo Common Stock Price is greater than twelve dollars and fifty cents ($12.50) (such share price as adjusted pursuant to this Section 4.8, the “Minimum Target”) for any period of twenty (20) trading days out of thirty (30) consecutive trading days, one million two hundred fifty thousand (1,250,000) shares of NewCo Common Stock (the “Minimum Target Earnout Shares”); and

(ii) if the NewCo Common Stock Price is greater than fourteen dollars ($14.00) (such share price as adjusted pursuant to this Section 4.8, the “Maximum Target”) for any period of twenty (20) trading days out of thirty (30) consecutive trading days, one million two hundred fifty thousand (1,250,000) shares of NewCo Common Stock (the “Maximum Target Earnout Shares”) plus the Minimum Target Earnout Shares, if not previously issued.

(b) From and after the First Merger Effective Time, NewCo shall reserve at all times a sufficient number of authorized and unissued shares of NewCo Common Stock necessary to issue the Earnout Shares. In the event that the Earnout Holders are entitled to any Earnout Shares, NewCo shall issue such Earnout Shares promptly and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the date the Earnout Holders become entitled thereto. The Earnout Shares to be issued to the Earnout Holders hereunder, if any, when delivered, shall be duly authorized and validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable, and issued in compliance with all applicable state and federal securities Laws and not subject to, and not issued in violation of, any options, warrants, calls, rights (including preemptive rights), the NewCo Governing Documents, commitments, or agreements to which NewCo is a party or by which it is bound. During the Earnout Period, NewCo shall use reasonable efforts (subject to the occurrence of a Liquidity Event) (i) to remain listed as a public company on, and to provide that the NewCo Common Stock (including, when issued the Earnout Shares) is tradable over, Nasdaq and (ii) to provide that the Earnout Shares, when issued, are approved for listing on Nasdaq.

(c) If NewCo shall at any time during the Earnout Period pay any cash or in-kind dividend (other than any dividend in the form of additional shares of NewCo Common Stock, which dividend shall be governed by the immediately following sentence) on shares of NewCo Common Stock, then in each such case the Minimum Target (to the extent the Minimum Target Earnout Shares have not already been issued prior to the time of such dividend) and the Maximum Target (to the extent the Maximum Target Earnout Shares have not already been issued prior to the time of such dividend) shall be deemed to have been reduced for all purposes of this Agreement by the amount of such cash dividend or the fair market value of the in-kind dividend, as applicable, paid with respect to each share of NewCo Common Stock. If NewCo shall at any time during the Earnout Period pay any dividend on shares of NewCo Common Stock by the issuance of additional shares of NewCo Common Stock, or effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the outstanding shares of NewCo Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise) into a greater or lesser number of shares of NewCo Common Stock, then in each such case, (i) the number of Earnout Shares shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares of NewCo Common Stock (including any other shares so reclassified as NewCo Common Stock) outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of NewCo Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event, and (ii) the NewCo Common Stock Price values set forth in Section 4.8(a)(i) and (ii) above shall be appropriately adjusted to provide to the Earnout Holders the same economic effect as contemplated by this Agreement prior to such event.

(d) After the occurrence of the Minimum Target, NewCo shall issue to the Earnout Holders the Minimum Target Earnout Shares equal to the Earnout Per Fully-Diluted Common Share and SAR.

(e) After the occurrence of the Maximum Target, NewCo shall issue to the Earnout Holders the Maximum Target Earnout Shares equal to the Earnout Per Fully-Diluted Common Share and SAR.

(i) if the Liquidity Event Consideration in such Liquidity Event is greater than the Minimum Target (but less than the Maximum Target) and the Minimum Target Earnout Shares have not already been issued, then the Minimum Target Earnout Shares shall be deemed issued and outstanding pursuant to and as contemplated by Section 4.8(a)(i) and Section 4.8(d), effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Liquidity Event and the holders thereof shall be entitled to receive the corresponding Liquidity Event Consideration; or

(ii) if the Liquidity Event Consideration in such Liquidity Event is greater than the Maximum Target and the Maximum Target Earnout Shares have not already been issued, then the Minimum Target Earnout Shares (to the extent not already issued) and the Maximum Target Earnout Shares shall be issued, and the Maximum Target Earnout Shares and the Minimum Target Earnout Shares shall be deemed issued and outstanding pursuant to and as contemplated by Section 4.8(a) and Section 4.8(d) or Section 4.8(e), as applicable, effective immediately prior to the consummation of such Liquidity Event and the holders thereof shall be entitled to receive the corresponding Liquidity Event Consideration.

(g) The “Earnout Per Fully-Diluted Common Share and SAR” means, with respect to each Common Share and each In-the-Money SAR, a number of Earnout Shares equal to (A) the Minimum Target Earnout Shares or the Maximum Target Earnout Shares, as applicable, divided by (B) (x) the Aggregate Fully-Diluted Common Shares plus (y) the number of In-the-Money SARs.

(i) The consummation of any merger, reorganization, or consolidation of NewCo that results in any Person or group (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act or any successor rule) becoming the record or beneficial owner of more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the voting securities of NewCo, Parent or the Surviving Corporation;

(ii) The consummation of a sale or disposition by NewCo of all or substantially all of NewCo’s assets;

(i) “Liquidity Event Consideration” means the amount per share to be received by a holder of shares of NewCo Common Stock in connection with a Liquidity Event, with any non-cash consideration valued as determined by the value ascribed to such non-cash consideration in the definitive documents pursuant to which such Liquidity Event is to occur.

Upon the Closing, Monocle shall cause the Trust Account to be disbursed to Monocle and as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, the Company and the Company Stockholders, for each of themselves and their respective subsidiaries, affiliated entities, directors, officers, employees, stockholders, representatives, advisors and all other associates and Affiliates, hereby waive all rights, title, interest or claim of any kind to collect from the Trust Account any monies that may be owed to them by Monocle for any reason whatsoever, including for a breach of this Agreement by Monocle or any negotiations, agreements or understandings with Monocle (whether in the past, present or future), and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account at any time for any reason whatsoever, in each case except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that (i) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit the Company’s right to pursue a claim against Monocle for legal relief against assets held outside the Trust Account, for specific performance or other equitable relief, and (ii) nothing herein shall serve to limit or prohibit any claims that the Company may have in the future against Monocle’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any funds that have been released from the Trust Account and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds). This paragraph will survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.

7.10 Section 280G. The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to Monocle, at least three (3) days prior to the Closing, a parachute payment waiver (each, a “Parachute Payment Waiver”) from each Person who the Company reasonably believes is a “disqualified individual” (within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder), pursuant to which such disqualified individuals will waive any and all payments or other benefits contingent on the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to the extent necessary so that no payment received (or retained) by such disqualified individual shall be a “parachute payment” under Section 280G of the Code (the “Waived Payments”). To the extent such waivers are obtained, the Company shall use all commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the approval by such number of its shareholders as is required by the terms of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code of the right of such disqualified individuals to receive the Waived Payments, with such vote to be obtained in a manner which satisfies all applicable requirements of Section 280G(b)(5)(B) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. Prior to seeking any such Parachute Payment Waiver or shareholder approval, the Company shall deliver to Monocle drafts of all waivers, consents, disclosures, supporting calculations, and other documents prepared in connection with such contemplated actions, and Monocle shall have a reasonable period of time to review and comment on all such documents (the Company’s acceptance of Monocle’s reasonable comments shall not be unreasonably withheld).

7.11 Notification of Certain Matters; Information Updates. The Company shall give prompt notice to Monocle of (a) the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event whose occurrence or non-occurrence, as the case may be, could reasonably be expected to cause any condition set forth in ‎Section 10.2 not to be satisfied at any time from the date of this Agreement to the Effective Time; (b) any notice or other communication from any third Person alleging that the consent of such third Person is or may be required in connection with the Second Merger or the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (c) any regulatory notice, report or results of inspection from a Governmental Authority in respect of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (d) any information or knowledge obtained by the Company that could reasonably be expected to materially affect the Company’s current projections, forecasts or budgets or estimates of revenues, earnings or other measures of financial performance for any period. The Company shall prepare in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice, and deliver to the Monocle Parties promptly upon completion and promptly following any delivery to the members of the Company Board or to any of the Company Stockholders (but in any event no later than thirty (30) days after the end of the applicable fiscal month) unaudited consolidated financial statements for the Company and its Subsidiaries for each fiscal month ending after the date hereof (including, for the avoidance of doubt, December 2019), together with a copy of the standard monthly reporting package provided to the management of the Company.

(a) The Company shall prepare and submit to Monocle no later than two (2) Business Days prior the Closing Date a final calculation of all Company Transaction Expenses, with written invoices and wire instructions for the payment thereof. Based on such summary, on the Closing Date, following the Closing, Monocle shall pay or cause to be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds all such Company Transaction Expenses.

Monocle shall use reasonable best efforts to comply with any Information or Document Requests.

(b) Monocle shall request early termination of any waiting period under the HSR Act and exercise its reasonable best efforts to (i) obtain termination or expiration of the waiting period under the HSR Act, (ii) prevent the entry in any Action brought by a Regulatory Consent Authority or any other Governmental Authority or Person of any Governmental Order which would prohibit, make unlawful or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (iii) if any such Governmental Order is issued in any such Action, cause such Governmental Order to be lifted as soon as practicable, but in any event at such time as is necessary to permit the lawful consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby on or prior to the Termination Date.

(c) Monocle and the Company shall, and shall cause each of their respective Subsidiaries to, cooperate with each other and with the Regulatory Consent Authorities and other Governmental Authorities, shall use (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to cooperate and use) reasonable best efforts and shall take any and all action necessary or advisable to avoid, prevent, eliminate or remove the actual or threatened commencement of any proceeding in any forum by or on behalf of any Regulatory Consent Authority or other Governmental Authority or the issuance of any Governmental Order that would delay, enjoin, prevent, restrain or otherwise prohibit the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including the Mergers), including but not limited to (i) proffering, negotiating and consenting and/or agreeing to a Governmental Order or other agreement providing for (A) the sale, licensing or other disposition, or the holding separate, of particular assets, categories of assets, lines of business, or business units or divisions of the Company, its Subsidiaries, Monocle or Monocle’s Affiliates, (B) the termination, amendment or assignment of existing relationships and contractual rights and obligations of the Company, its Subsidiaries, Monocle or Monocle’s Affiliates or (C) the limitation or modification of the conduct of any lines of business or operations of the Company, its Subsidiaries, Monocle or Monocle’s Affiliates following the Closing or any action that limits the freedom of action, ownership or control with respect to, or the ability to retain or hold, any of the businesses or assets of the Company, its Subsidiaries, Monocle or Monocle’s Affiliates or their respective Affiliates and (ii) promptly effecting any of the foregoing described in subsection (i) of this Section 8.2(c), or any other action, in each case, at such time as may be necessary to permit the lawful consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby on or prior to the Termination Date. In furtherance and not in limitation of the provisions of this Section 8.2 and Section 9.1, if any Action, including any proceeding by a private party, is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) challenging any transaction contemplated by this Agreement as violative of any Law, Monocle, the Company and their respective Affiliates shall use their best efforts to contest and resist any such Action and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any decree, judgment, injunction or other Governmental Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The entry by any Governmental Authority in any Action of a Governmental Order permitting the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby but requiring any of the assets or lines of business of Monocle to be sold, licensed or otherwise disposed or held separate thereafter (including the business and assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries) shall not be deemed a failure to satisfy any condition specified in Article X.

(d) Each of Monocle and the Company shall promptly furnish to the other party and the Holder Representative copies of any notices or written communications received by Monocle or the Company, as applicable, or any of its Affiliates from any third party or any Governmental Authority with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall permit counsel to the other party an opportunity to review in advance, and shall consider in good faith the views of such counsel in connection with, any proposed written communications by Monocle or the Company, as applicable, and/or its Affiliates to any third party or Governmental Authority concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, that Monocle shall not extend any waiting period or comparable period under the HSR Act or enter into any agreement with any Governmental Authority to delay the Mergers without the written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Monocle agrees to provide the Company, the Holder Representative and its counsel the opportunity, on reasonable advance notice and, to the extent practicable, to participate in any meetings or discussions, either in person or by telephone, between Monocle and/or any of its Affiliates, agents or advisors, on the one hand, and any Governmental Authority, on the other hand, concerning or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

(e) Monocle shall be solely responsible for and pay all filing fees payable to the Regulatory Consent Authorities in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(f) Monocle shall not, and shall cause its Affiliates not to, acquire or agree to acquire equity or assets of, or other interests in, or merge or consolidate with (or agree to merge or consolidate with), any corporation, partnership, association or other business organization, or any business unit, division, subsidiary or other portion thereof, if such action would reasonably be expected to: (i) materially increase the risk of any Governmental Authority seeking or entering a Governmental Order prohibiting the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; (ii) materially increase the risk of not being able to remove any such Governmental Order on appeal or otherwise; (iii) materially delay the satisfaction of the conditions contained in Section 10.1; or (iv) otherwise prevent or delay the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(a) Each of the Monocle Parties agree that all rights held by each present and former director and officer of the Company and any of its Subsidiaries to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at, or after the Effective Time, provided in the respective certificate of incorporation, bylaws or other organizational documents of the Company or such Subsidiary in effect on the date of this Agreement shall survive the Mergers and shall continue in full force and effect. Without limiting the foregoing, (i) Monocle shall cause the Company and each of its Subsidiaries (A) to maintain for a period of not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time provisions in its certificate of incorporation, bylaws and other organizational documents concerning the indemnification and exoneration (including provisions relating to expense advancement) of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ former and current officers, directors, employees, and agents that are no less favorable to those Persons than the provisions of the certificates of incorporation, bylaws and other organizational documents of the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable, in each case, as of the date of this Agreement and (B) not to 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 and (ii) Monocle agrees that any indemnification and advancement of expenses available to any current or former director of the Company or its Subsidiaries by virtue of such current or former director’s service as a partner or employee of any investment fund that is an Affiliate of the Company prior to the Closing (any such current or former director, a “Sponsor Director”) shall be secondary to the indemnification and advancement of expenses to be provided by Monocle, the Company and its Subsidiaries pursuant to this Section 8.3 and that Monocle, the Company and its Subsidiaries shall (A) be the primary indemnitors of first resort for Sponsor Directors pursuant to this Section 8.3, (B) be fully responsible for the advancement of all expenses and the payment of all Damages with respect to Sponsor Directors which are addressed by this Section 8.3 and (C) not make any claim for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect of any other indemnification available to any Sponsor Director with respect to any matter addressed by this Section 8.3; provided, however, that this Section 8.3(a) shall not apply to claims made against or Damages or advancement of expenses sought by, a Sponsor Director to the extent arising under or in connection with a claim by LGP, any Affiliate or investment fund of LGP or any of its or their respective limited or general partners. Monocle shall assume, and be jointly and severally liable for, and shall cause the Company and its Subsidiaries to honor, each of the covenants in this Section 8.3.

(b) For a period of six (6) years from the Effective Time, Monocle shall cause the Surviving Corporation to maintain in effect directors’ and officers’ liability insurance covering those Persons who are currently covered by the Company’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies (true, correct and complete copies of which have been heretofore made available to Monocle or its agents or representatives) on terms not materially less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage; provided, however, that (i) Monocle may, at its sole cost and expense, cause coverage to be extended under the current directors’ and officers’ liability insurance by obtaining a six-year “tail” policy containing terms not materially less favorable than the terms of such current insurance coverage with respect to claims existing or occurring at or prior to the Effective Time and (ii) if any claim is asserted or made within such six-year period, any insurance required to be maintained under this Section 8.3 shall be continued in respect of such claim until the final disposition thereof; provided, further, that the Company shall not pay, and the Surviving Corporation shall not be required to pay, in excess of two hundred fifty percent (250%) of the last annual premium paid by the Company prior to the date of this Agreement in respect of such “tail” policy, and if such premiums for such insurance are in excess of two hundred fifty percent (250%), then the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be maintained policies of insurance, which, in its good faith determination, provide the maximum coverage available at an annual premium equal to two hundred fifty percent (250%) of the last annual premium paid by the Company prior to the date of this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, this Section 8.3 shall survive the consummation of the Mergers indefinitely and shall be binding, jointly and severally, on all successors and assigns of Monocle and the Surviving Corporation. In the event that Monocle or the Surviving Corporation 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, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Monocle or the Surviving Corporation, as the case may be, shall succeed to the obligations set forth in this Section 8.3.

(a) Each of the Monocle Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and do, or cause to be done, as promptly as possible, all things necessary, proper or advisable to arrange and obtain the Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter, including (i) maintaining in effect the Debt Commitment Letter, (ii) negotiating and entering into definitive financing agreements with respect to the Financing on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter so that such agreements are in effect as promptly as practicable but in any event not later than at Closing (such definitive financing agreements entered into in respect of the Financing, the “Financing Agreements”) and (iii) arranging and obtaining the proceeds of the Financing at or before Closing on the terms and conditions described in the Debt Commitment Letter. Promptly upon request, Monocle shall provide to the Company copies of all material definitive documents relating to the Financing, including the Financing Agreements, and shall keep the Company informed on a current basis and in reasonable detail of material developments in respect of the financing process relating thereto, including by from time to time advising the Company of the status of the Financing.

(b) Monocle shall give the Company prompt written notice (i) of any breach or default (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice or lapse of time or both, would reasonably be expected to result in a breach or default) by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter of which any Monocle Party becomes aware, (ii) if and when any Monocle Party becomes aware that any portion of the Financing may not be available to consummate the Second Merger, (iii) of the receipt of any notice or other communication from any Person with respect to any (A) actual or potential breach, default, termination or repudiation by any party to the Debt Commitment Letter or (B) material dispute or disagreement between or among any parties to the Debt Commitment Letter (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any ordinary course negotiations with respect to the terms of the Financing), (iv) if for any reason any Monocle Party believes in good faith it will not be able to obtain any portion of the Financing on the terms, in the manner and from the sources contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter and (v) of any termination of the Debt Commitment Letter. If any portion of the Debt Financing becomes unavailable on the terms and conditions contemplated in the Debt Commitment Letter, the Monocle Parties shall, without limiting the obligations of the Monocle Parties set forth in the immediately following sentence, use reasonable best efforts to arrange and obtain alternative financing, including from alternative sources, on terms in the aggregate not materially less favorable to Monocle than the Debt Financing contemplated by the Debt Commitment Letter (“Alternative Financing”) as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event and the provisions of Section 7.4, this Section 8.4 and Section 13.15 shall be applicable to the Alternative Financing, and, for the purposes of Section 7.4, this Section 8.4 and Section 13.15, all references to the Debt Financing shall be deemed to include such Alternative Financing, all references to the Debt Commitment Letter shall include the applicable documents for the Alternative Financing and all references to the Debt Financing Sources shall include the persons providing or arranging the Alternative Financing. The Monocle Parties shall (A) comply in all material respects with the Debt Commitment Letter, (B) enforce in all material respects their rights under the Debt Commitment Letter and (C) not permit, without the prior written consent of the Company, any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver of any provision or remedy under, the Debt Commitment Letter if such amendment, modification or waiver would (1) reduce the aggregate amount of proceeds from the Financing available to fund the amounts required to be paid by any Monocle Party under this Agreement below the amount required to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (2) impose new or additional, or otherwise expand any, conditions precedent to the receipt of the Financing or (3) otherwise reasonably be expected to prevent or materially impair or delay the ability of the Monocle Parties to consummate the Mergers.

8.5 Post-Closing Access; Preservation of Records. From and after the Closing and to the extent consistent with all applicable Laws, Monocle will make or cause to be made available to the Holder Representative all books, records and documents of the Company and each of its Subsidiaries (and the assistance of employees responsible for such books, records and documents) during regular business hours as may be reasonably necessary solely for (a) investigating, settling, preparing for the defense or prosecution of, defending or prosecuting any Action involving stockholders of the Company (other than any Action against Monocle or any of its Affiliates, including the Company and its Subsidiaries, that relates to the subject matter hereof), or (b) preparing and delivering any accounting or other statement provided for under this Agreement; provided, however, that access to such books, records, documents and employees shall be conducted in a manner reasonably calculated to minimize disruptions with the normal operation of the Company and its Subsidiaries and the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Company and its Subsidiaries incurred in connection therewith will be paid by the Holder Representative. Monocle will cause the Company and each of its Subsidiaries to maintain and preserve all such books, records and other documents for any applicable statutory or regulatory retention period, as the same may be extended and, in each case, shall offer to transfer such records to the Holder Representative at the end of any such period.

9.1 Support of Transaction. Without limiting or expanding any covenant contained in Article VII or Article VIII, including the obligations of the Company and Monocle with respect to the notifications, filings, reaffirmations and applications described in Section 7.3 and Section 8.2, which obligations shall control to the extent of any conflict with this Section 9.1, Monocle and the Company shall each, and shall each cause their respective Subsidiaries to: (a) use reasonable best efforts to assemble, prepare and file any information (and, as needed, to supplement such information) as may be reasonably necessary to obtain as promptly as practicable all governmental and regulatory consents, clearances and approvals required to be obtained in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, including for the avoidance of doubt the FAA, European Aviation Safety Agency (“EASA”) or any applicable foreign Civil Aviation Authority (“CAA”), (b) use reasonable best efforts to obtain all material consents and approvals of third parties that any of the Monocle Parties, the Company, or their respective Affiliates are required to obtain in order to consummate the Mergers and (c) take such other action as may reasonably be necessary or as another Party may reasonably request to satisfy the conditions of Article X or otherwise to comply with this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby as soon as practicable, including, for the avoidance of doubt and with respect to (i) Holder Representative, exercising the option described in Section 5.1 of the Amended and Restated Stockholders Agreement to cause each of the Company Stockholders to validly waive, in writing, pursuant to Delaware Law any rights of appraisal or rights to dissent from the Merger or to demand fair value for such Company Stockholders’ equity securities of the Company in connection with the Merger, in each case to the extent applicable and (ii) the Company, making available to Monocle for use in connection with, and contingent upon, the Closing, the cash and cash equivalents of the Company and its Subsidiaries (excluding (x) the aggregate amount of outstanding and unpaid checks issued by or on behalf of the Company or its Subsidiaries as of such time and (y) any cash or cash equivalents of the Company or its Subsidiaries not freely usable by the Company or its Subsidiaries because it is subject to restrictions, limitations or Taxes on use or distribution by Law, Contract or otherwise). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries be obligated to bear any expense or pay any fee or grant any concession in connection with obtaining any consents, authorizations or approvals pursuant to the terms of any Contract to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party in connection with the consummation of the Mergers.

The parties hereto will report for federal and applicable state income Tax purposes the Mergers in a manner consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment and will not take any position inconsistent with such treatment unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code or a similar final determination of liability with respect to state income Taxes.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, but in any event within thirty (30) Business Days following the date hereof, Monocle and the Company shall prepare and Monocle shall file with the SEC (i) a proxy statement in connection with the Mergers to be filed as part of the Registration Statement and sent to the Pre-Closing Monocle Holders relating to the Monocle Stockholders’ Meeting (such proxy statement, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Proxy Statement”) and (ii) the Registration Statement, in which the Proxy Statement will be included as a prospectus.

(b) Monocle and NewCo shall as promptly as practicable notify the Company of any correspondence with the SEC relating to the Proxy Statement, the receipt of any oral or written comments from the SEC relating to the Proxy Statement, and any request by the SEC for any amendment to the Proxy Statement or for additional information. Monocle and NewCo shall cooperate and provide the Company with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Proxy Statement (including each amendment or supplement thereto) and all responses to requests for additional information by and replies to comments of the SEC and give due consideration to all comments reasonably proposed by the Company in respect of such documents and responses prior to filing such with or sending such to the SEC, and, to the extent practicable, the Parties will provide each other with copies of all such filings made and correspondence with the SEC. Monocle and NewCo also agree to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary state securities Law or “blue sky” permits and approvals required to carry out the Mergers, and each of the Company and the Holder Representative shall promptly furnish all information concerning the Company as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action.

Without limiting the rights of the Company under and to the extent provided under Section 13.15, this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may only be brought against, the entities that are expressly named as parties hereto and then only with respect to the specific obligations set forth herein with respect to such party. Without limiting the rights of the Company under and to the extent provided under Section 13.15, except to the extent a named party to this Agreement (and then only to the extent of the specific obligations undertaken by such named 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 named party to this Agreement 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, in each case of the Persons described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), 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 the Company or Monocle under this Agreement (whether for indemnification or otherwise) of or for any claim based on, arising out of, or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(a) It is acknowledged by each of the parties hereto that the Holder Representative and the Company have retained L&W to act as their counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that L&W has not acted as counsel for any other Person in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby for conflict of interest or any other purposes. Each of the Monocle Parties and the Company agree that any attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence attaching as a result of L&W’s representation of the Company and the Holder Representative related to the preparation for, and negotiation and consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including all communications among L&W and the Company, the Holders, the Holder Representatives and/or their respective Affiliates, related to the preparation for, and negotiation and consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, shall survive the Closing and shall remain in effect. Furthermore, effective as of the Closing, (i) all communications (and materials relating thereto) between the Company and its Subsidiaries and L&W related to the preparation for, and negotiation and consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are hereby assigned and transferred to the Holder Representative, (ii) the Company and its Subsidiaries hereby release all of their respective rights and interests to and in such communications and related materials and (iii) the Company and its Subsidiaries hereby release any right to assert or waive any privilege related to the communications referenced in this Section 13.17 and acknowledge and agree that all such rights shall reside with the Holder Representative.

(b) Each of the Monocle Parties and the Company agree that, notwithstanding any current or prior representation of the Company by L&W, L&W shall be allowed to represent any Holder, the Holder Representative or any of their respective Affiliates in any matters and disputes adverse to any of the Monocle Parties or the Company that either is existing on the date of this Agreement or arises in the future and relates to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and each of the Monocle Parties and the Company hereby waive any conflicts or claim of privilege that may arise in connection with such representation. Further, each of the Monocle Parties and the Company agree that, in the event that a dispute arises after Closing between any of the Monocle Parties or the Company, on the one hand, and any Holder, the Holder Representative or any of their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, L&W may represent such Holder, the Holder Representative or Affiliate in such dispute even though the interests of such Holder, the Holder Representative or Affiliate may be directly adverse to any Monocle Party or the Company and even though L&W may have represented the Company in a matter substantially related to such dispute.

(c) Each of the Monocle Parties acknowledges, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates (including, from and after the Closing, the Company and its Subsidiaries), that any advice given to or communication with any Holder, the Holder Representative or any of their respective Affiliates (other than the Company) shall not be subject to any joint privilege and shall be owned solely by such Holder, the Holder Representative and any Affiliate of each such party (other than the Company). Each of the Monocle Parties and the Company each hereby acknowledge that each of them have had the opportunity to discuss and obtain adequate information concerning the significance and material risks of, and reasonable available alternatives to, the waivers, permissions and other provisions of this Agreement, including the opportunity to consult with counsel other than L&W.

(d) It is acknowledged by each of the parties hereto that the Monocle Parties have retained CW&T to act as their counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and that CW&T has not acted as counsel for any other Person in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby for conflict of interest or any other purposes. Each of the Monocle Parties and the Company agree that any attorney-client privilege and the expectation of client confidence attaching as a result of CW&T’s representation of the Monocle Parties related to the preparation for, and negotiation and consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including all communications among CW&T and the Monocle Parties and/or their respective Affiliates, related to the preparation for, and negotiation and consummation of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, shall survive the Closing and shall remain in effect.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF the parties have hereunto caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the date hereof.
