RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT

 

 

Pursuant to the Notice of Restricted Stock Grant (the “Grant Notice”) and this Restricted Stock Award Agreement (this “Award Agreement”), Bowlero Corp. (together with its Subsidiaries, whether existing or thereafter acquired or formed, and any and all successor entities, the “Company”) has granted the Participant an Award of Restricted Stock under the Bowlero Corp. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) with respect to the number of Earnout Shares indicated in the Grant Notice. The Earnout Shares will vest in accordance with the terms set forth in this Award Agreement and the Plan. The Earnout Shares are granted to the Participant effective as of the Date of Grant. Capitalized terms not defined in this Award Agreement or in the Grant Notice but defined in the Plan will have the same definitions as in the Plan.

 

1. Vesting. The Earnout Shares will vest in accordance with Exhibit A attached hereto.

 

2. Issuance. The Earnout Shares will be issued by the Company and will be registered in the Participant’s name on the stock transfer books of the Company promptly after the date hereof in book-entry form, subject to the Company’s directions at all times prior to the date the Earnout Shares vest. As a condition to the receipt of a stock certificate (to the extent issued) for the Earnout Shares, the Participant will at the request of the Company deliver to the Company one or more stock powers, duly endorsed in blank, relating to the Earnout Shares. The Board may cause a legend or legends to be put on any stock certificate (to the extent issued) relating to the Earnout Shares to make appropriate reference to such restrictions as the Board may deem advisable under the Plan or as may be required by the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any exchange that lists the Earnout Shares, and any applicable federal or state laws.

 

3. Rights as a Stockholder; Dividends. The Participant will be the record owner of the Earnout Shares unless and until the Earnout Shares are forfeited pursuant to the Plan and this Award Agreement or sold or otherwise disposed of, and as record owner will be entitled to all rights of a holder of Common Stock, including, without limitation, voting and dividend rights. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any dividends or other distributions payable with respect to any Earnout Shares prior to the date on which such Earnout Shares vest will be set aside by the Company and will be paid to the Participant on or promptly following such vesting date (and, for clarity, if such Earnout Shares are forfeited, such dividends or other distributions will be forfeited).

 

4. Clawback; Forfeiture; Detrimental Conduct. The Earnout Shares will be subject to the clawback, forfeiture and detrimental conduct provisions set forth in Section 14(t) of the Plan.

5. Miscellaneous.

 

(a) Compliance with Legal Requirements. The granting of the Earnout Shares, and any other obligations of the Company under this Award Agreement, will be subject to all applicable U.S. federal, state and local laws, rules and regulations, all applicable non-U.S. laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required. The Participant agrees to take all steps that the Committee or the Company determines are reasonably necessary to comply with all applicable provisions of U.S. federal and state securities law and non-U.S. securities law in exercising the Participant’s rights under this Award Agreement.

 

(b) Transferability. The Earnout Shares will be subject to Section 14(b) of the Plan.

 

(c) Tax Withholding; No Section 83(b) Election. The Participant will be solely responsible for any applicable taxes (including, without limitation, income and excise taxes) and penalties, and any interest that accrues thereon, that the Participant incurs in connection with the receipt or vesting of the Earnout Shares. The Company will be authorized to withhold from the Earnout Shares the amount (in cash or Earnout Shares, or any combination thereof) of applicable withholding taxes due in respect of the Earnout Shares any payment with respect to the Earnout Shares and to take such other action (including providing for elective payment of such amounts in cash or other property by the Participant) as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes; provided, however, that no Earnout Shares will be withheld with a value exceeding the maximum statutory rates in the applicable tax jurisdictions. No election under Section 83(b) of the Code shall be permitted with respect to the Earnout Shares.

 

(d) Participant’s Employment or Other Service Relationship. Nothing in the Earnout Shares will confer upon the Participant any right to continue the Participant’s employment or other service relationship with the Company or any of its Affiliates or interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any of its Affiliates to terminate the Participant’s employment or other service relationship with the Company or its Affiliates or to increase or decrease the Participant’s compensation at any time. The grant of the Earnout Shares is a one-time benefit and does not create any contractual or other right to receive any other grant of other Awards under the Plan in the future. The grant of the Earnout Shares does not form part of the Participant’s entitlement to compensation or benefits in terms of the Participant’s employment or other service relationship with the Company or its Affiliates.

 

(e) Waiver. No amendment or modification of any provision of this Award Agreement will be effective unless signed in writing by or on behalf of the Company and the Participant, except that the Company may amend or modify this Award Agreement without the Participant’s consent in accordance with the provisions of the Plan or as otherwise set forth in this Award Agreement. No waiver of any breach or condition of this Award Agreement will be deemed to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach or condition whether of like or different nature. Any amendment or modification of or to any provision of this Award Agreement, or any waiver of any provision of this Award Agreement, will be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given.

Fifty percent (50%) of the Earnout Shares (the “$15.00 Earnout Shares”) are eligible to vest in accordance with Section 2(b) of this Exhibit A, and the remaining fifty percent (50%) of the Earnout Shares (the “$17.50 Earnout Shares”) are eligible to vest in accordance with Section 2(c) of this Exhibit A.

 

(b) $15.00 Earnout Shares.

In the case of a Change of Control transaction consisting of a sale of the Company by merger, business combination or otherwise in which the stockholders of the Company receive other than only cash consideration for their shares, the Board will determine the treatment of the Earnout Shares in its sole discretion.
