In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any provision, or any portion thereof, contained in this Agreement shall be unenforceable in any respect, then such provision shall be deemed limited to the extent that such court deems it enforceable, and as so limited shall remain in full force and effect. In the event that such court shall deem any such provision, or portion thereof, wholly unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.

 

(c) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts wholly performed within the borders of such state, without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.

(d) Specific Performance. Each party hereto agrees that irreparable damage may occur in the event any provision of this Agreement was not performed by any of the other parties hereto in accordance with the terms hereof and that the such party shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or equity.

 

(e) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that all parties need not sign the same counterpart. The words “execution”, “signed”, “signature” and words of like import in this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement or in any certificate, agreement or document related to this Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement shall include images of manually executed signatures transmitted by facsimile or other electronic format (including, without limitation, “pdf”, “tif” or “jpg”) and other electronic signatures (including, without limitation, DocuSign and AdobeSign). The use of electronic signatures and electronic records (including, without limitation, any contract or other record created, generated, sent, communicated, received, or stored by electronic means) shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based recordkeeping system to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, including the U.S. Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act and any other applicable law, including, without limitation, any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act of the United States or the Uniform Commercial Code of the United States.

 

(f) Trust Account; Waiver of Liquidation Distributions; Redemption Rights. In connection with the Shares purchased pursuant to this Agreement, the Investor hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) in or to any distributions by FLAG from the trust account that was established for the benefit of FLAG’s public stockholders (the “Trust Account”), whether in the event of a liquidation of FLAG upon FLAG’s failure to timely complete an initial business combination or otherwise. In no event will the Investor have the right to redeem any Shares and receive any funds held in the Trust Account upon the successful completion of an initial business combination. In the event the Investor has any Claim against FLAG under this Agreement, the Investor shall pursue such Claim solely against FLAG and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the property or any monies in the Trust Account. For purposes of clarity, the Investor is not waiving any redemption right or claim to funds held in the Trust Account for shares or units purchased in FLAG’s initial public offering or public aftermarket.
