NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, which are incorporated in this Agreement as if fully set forth below, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1. Lock-Up Provisions.

 

(a)   Holder hereby agrees not to, during the period (the “Lock-Up Period”) commencing from the First Merger Effective Time and ending on the earlier of (i) 180 calendar days after the completion of the Closing or (ii) subsequent to the Closing, with respect to 50% of the Restricted Securities, if the last reported sale price of the Pubco ADSs equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, rights issuances, subdivisions, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 90 days after the Closing: (A) lend, offer, pledge (except as provided herein below), hypothecate, encumber, donate, assign, sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of or agree to transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), any Restricted Securities, (B) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Restricted Securities, or (C) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, whether any such transaction described in clauses (A), (B) or (C) above is to be settled by delivery of Restricted Securities or other securities, in cash or otherwise (any of the foregoing described in clauses (A), (B) or (C), a “Prohibited Transfer”); provided, that at any time subsequent to the Closing Date, the Lock-Up Period shall end on the date on which Pubco completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization, bankruptcy or other similar transaction that results in all of the outstanding Pubco Class A Ordinary Shares (including those underlying the Pubco ADSs) being converted into cash, securities or other property.

 

(b) The foregoing Section 1(a) shall not apply to the transfer of any or all of the Restricted Securities owned by Holder (i) by gift, will or intestate succession, virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon the death of Holder, (ii) to any Permitted Transferee (defined below), (iii) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, divorce settlement, divorce decree, settlement agreement, or other court order related to the distribution of assets in connection with the dissolution of marriage or civil union, (iv) to Pubco to satisfy tax withholding obligations pursuant to Pubco’s equity incentive plans or arrangements, (v) to Pubco pursuant to any contractual arrangement in effect at the Closing that provides for the repurchase by Pubco or forfeiture of the Restricted Securities, (vi) which was acquired in open market transactions after the Closing, or (vii) in connection with any legal, regulatory or other order; provided, however, that in any of cases (i), (ii) or (iii) it shall be a condition to such transfer that the transferee executes and delivers to Pubco an agreement stating that the transferee is receiving and holding the Restricted Securities subject to the provisions of this Agreement applicable to Holder, and there shall be no further transfer of such Restricted Securities except in accordance with this Agreement.

 

(c)   As used in this Agreement, the term “Permitted Transferee” shall mean: (i) the members of Holder’s immediate family (for purposes of this Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean with respect to any natural person, any of the following: such person’s spouse, domestic partner, the siblings of such person and his or her spouse, and the direct descendants and ascendants (including adopted and step children and parents) of such person and his or her spouses and siblings), (ii) any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of Holder or the immediate family of Holder, (iii) if Holder is a trust, to the trustor or beneficiary of such trust or to the estate of a beneficiary of such trust, (iv) if Holder is an entity, as a distribution to limited partners, shareholders, members of, or owners of similar equity interests in Holder by virtue of the laws of the jurisdiction of the Holder’s organization and the Holder’s organizational documents upon the liquidation and dissolution of Holder or (v) to any affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) of Holder. Holder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by Pubco that are consistent with the foregoing or that are necessary to give further effect thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Holder may pledge its Restricted Securities to a third party during the Lock-Up Period, provided, that the party to whom the Restricted Securities are pledged acknowledges and agrees in writing that the Restricted Securities are subject to this Agreement and that such third party shall not be entitled to enforce its rights and remedies with respect to the Restricted Securities, including, without limitation, the right to vote, sell or take ownership of such Restricted Securities, until after the Lock-Up Period.

(d) If any Prohibited Transfer is made or attempted contrary to the provisions of this Agreement, such purported Prohibited Transfer shall be null and void ab initio, and Pubco shall refuse to recognize any such purported transferee of the Restricted Securities as one of its equity holders for any purpose. In order to enforce this Section 1, Pubco may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Restricted Securities of Holder (and Permitted Transferees and assigns thereof) until the end of the Lock-Up Period.

 

(e)   During the Lock-Up Period, each certificate evidencing any Restricted Securities shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form, in addition to any other applicable legends:

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER SET FORTH IN [A][AN AMENDED AND RESTATED] LOCK-UP AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF [●], BY AND AMONG THE ISSUER OF SUCH SECURITIES (THE “ISSUER”) AND THE ISSUER’S SECURITY HOLDER NAMED THEREIN, AS AMENDED. A COPY OF SUCH [AMENDED AND RESTATED] LOCK-UP AGREEMENT WILL BE FURNISHED WITHOUT CHARGE BY THE ISSUER TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST.”

 

(f) For the avoidance of any doubt, Holder shall retain all of its rights as a shareholder of Pubco with respect to the Restricted Securities during the Lock-Up Period, including the right to vote any Restricted Securities, but subject to the obligations under the Business Combination Agreement.

(h) Amendments and Waivers. This Agreement may be amended or modified only with the written consent of Pubco, the Company, the Purchaser and Holder. The observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, and either retroactively or prospectively) only in a writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of such waiver is sought. No failure or delay by a party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition, or provision of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition, or provision. Without limiting anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, without prior notice to or consent of Holder, Pubco, the Company and Purchaser may terminate this Agreement prior to the Closing in a writing signed by Pubco, the Company and Purchaser, and release Holder from all of its obligations hereunder.

 

(i) Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in a jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified or deleted, as to the jurisdiction involved, only to the extent necessary to render the same valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby nor shall the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision be affected thereby in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

 

(j) Specific Performance. Holder acknowledges that its obligations under this Agreement are unique, recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by Holder, money damages will be inadequate and Pubco will have no adequate remedy at law, and agrees that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by Holder in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, each of Pubco, the Company and Purchaser shall be entitled to an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Agreement by Holder and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the requirement to post any bond or other security or to prove that money damages would be inadequate, this being in addition to any other right or remedy to which such party may be entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

 

 5 

 

 

(k) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and any other written or oral agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the parties is expressly canceled; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not affect the rights and obligations of the parties under the Business Combination Agreement or any Ancillary Document. [This Agreement amends and restates and supersedes the Original Agreement in its entirety, and upon the effectiveness of this Agreement, the Original Agreement shall no longer have any force or effect.] Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall limit any of the rights or remedies of Pubco, the Company and Purchaser or any of the obligations of Holder under any other agreement between Holder and Pubco, the Company or Purchaser or any certificate or instrument executed by Holder in favor of Pubco, the Company or Purchaser, and nothing in any other agreement, certificate or instrument shall limit any of the rights or remedies of Pubco, the Company or Purchaser or any of the obligations of Holder under this Agreement.

 

(l) Further Assurances. From time to time, at another party’s request and without further consideration (but at the requesting party’s reasonable cost and expense), each party shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

(m) Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Agreement may also be executed and delivered by email in portable document format in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
