WARRANT ASSIGNMENT, ASSUMPTION AND AMENDMENT AGREEMENT

 

THIS WARRANT ASSIGNMENT, ASSUMPTION AND AMENDMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is entered into and effective as of [●], 2022, by and among Artemis Strategic Investment Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“SPAC”), Novibet PLC, a United Kingdom public limited company (“PubCo”), and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York limited purpose trust company (“Continental”), as warrant agent. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Warrant Agreement (as defined below).

 

WHEREAS, SPAC completed its initial public offering of units on October 4, 2021 (“Offering”), pursuant to which it issued an aggregate of 20,125,000 units, each unit consisting of one share of Class A common stock of SPAC, par value $0.0001 per share (“SPAC Class A Shares”) and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrants”), each whole Public Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one SPAC Class A Share at an initial exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment;

 

WHEREAS, simultaneously with the completion of the Offering, SPAC completed the offer and sale of an aggregate of 10,000,000 warrants (“Private Placement Warrants”), each Private Placement Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one SPAC Class A Share at an initial exercise price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment;

 

WHEREAS, in order to finance SPAC’s transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, Artemis Sponsor, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and sponsor of SPAC (the “Sponsor”) or affiliates of the Sponsor or SPAC’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan to SPAC funds as SPAC may require, of which up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into up to an additional 1,500,000 warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant (the “Working Capital Warrants” and, together with the Private Placement Warrants and the Public Warrants, the “Warrants”);

 

WHEREAS, SPAC and Continental entered into a warrant agreement, dated as of September 29, 2021, governing the terms of the Warrants (the “Warrant Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS, SPAC has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, dated as of March 30, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Komisium Limited, a private company limited by shares incorporated under the laws of Cyprus and the holder of all of the issued and outstanding ordinary shares of Logflex (the “Logflex Shareholder”), Logflex MT Holding Limited, a limited liability company incorporated under the laws of Malta and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of the Logflex Shareholder (“Logflex”), PubCo, Novibet Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (“Merger Sub”) and SPAC, pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge through a statutory merger with and into SPAC (the “Merger”), with SPAC surviving the Merger as a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of PubCo (the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the Merger, are referred to herein as the “Business Combination”), which transactions will constitute the initial “Business Combination” of SPAC for purposes of the Warrant Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, at the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”), each outstanding SPAC Class A Share (other than any Excluded SPAC Shares, as defined in the Merger Agreement) will be converted into and exchanged for the right to receive one ordinary share of PubCo, par value $0.0001 per share (the “PubCo Shares”);

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 2.6(b) of the Merger Agreement and Section 4.5 of the Warrant Agreement, upon the Closing, each Warrant issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Closing will be assumed by PubCo and will represent a warrant to purchase PubCo Shares (collectively, the “PubCo Warrants”) in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement (as assumed and amended by this Agreement);

 

WHEREAS, Section 9.8 of the Warrant Agreement provides that SPAC and the Warrant Agent may amend the Warrant Agreement without the consent of any Registered Holder (as such term is defined in the Warrant Agreement) for the purpose of curing any ambiguity, or curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained therein or adding or changing any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Warrant Agreement as SPAC and the Warrant Agent may deem necessary or desirable and that SPAC and the Warrant Agent deem shall not adversely affect the interest of the Registered Holders (as such term is defined in the Warrant Agreement) of the Warrants; and

 

 

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 8.18 of the Merger Agreement, SPAC agreed to assign to PubCo, and PubCo agreed to assume, all of SPAC’s rights, interests, and obligations under the Warrant Agreement, in each case, effective upon the Closing.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

1.     Assignment and Assumption of Warrant Agreement. SPAC hereby assigns to PubCo all of SPAC’s right, title and interest in and to the Warrant Agreement (as amended hereby) and PubCo hereby assumes, and agrees to pay, perform, satisfy and discharge in full, as the same become due, all of SPAC’s liabilities and obligations under the Warrant Agreement (as amended hereby) arising from and after the execution of this Agreement, in each case, effective immediately following the completion of the Business Combination and conditioned on the occurrence of the Closing. As a result of the preceding sentence, effective immediately following the completion of the Business Combination, each Warrant shall automatically cease to represent a right to acquire SPAC Class A Shares and shall instead represent a right to subscribe for PubCo Shares pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Warrant Agreement (as amended hereby). PubCo consents to payment of the Warrant Price upon an exercise of such PubCo Warrants for PubCo Shares in accordance with the terms of the Warrant Agreement.

 

2.     Consent. The Warrant Agent hereby consents to the assignment of the Warrant Agreement by SPAC to PubCo and the assumption by PubCo of the Warrant Agreement, each pursuant to Section 1 hereof, effective immediately following, and conditioned on the occurrence of, the Closing, and to the continuation of the Warrant Agreement in full force and effect from and after the Business Combination, subject at all times to the Warrant Agreement (as amended hereby) and to all of the provisions, covenants, agreements, terms and conditions of the Warrant Agreement (as amended hereby) and this Agreement.

 

3.     Replacement Instruments. As of the Closing, all outstanding instruments evidencing Warrants shall automatically be deemed to evidence PubCo Warrants reflecting the adjustment to the terms and conditions described herein and in Section 4.5 of the Warrant Agreement. Following the Closing, upon request by any holder of a PubCo Warrant, PubCo shall issue a new instrument for such PubCo Warrant to the holder thereof.
