1.1 [Reserved].

1.2 Blue Merger. Before the Blue Merger Effective Time, Perception Merger Sub will form Blue Merger Sub for the purpose of effecting the Blue Merger. Subject to completion or waiver of the closing conditions in accordance with Article VIII, on the Blue Merger Effective Date, BGHL and Blue Merger Sub shall, in accordance with Cayman Act and this Agreement, consummate the Blue Merger, under which BGHL shall be merged with and into Blue Merger Sub, following which the separate corporate existence of BGHL shall cease and Blue Merger Sub shall continue as the surviving entity and wholly owned subsidiary of New Perception (“New Blue”).

(a) Blue Merger Consideration. As consideration for the Blue Merger, FGR on behalf of the Blue Shareholders, shall be entitled to the number of New Perception Class A Ordinary Shares with an aggregate value equal to in the aggregate One Hundred Fourteen Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($114,500,000.00) (the “Merger Consideration”). For purposes of this provision, each New Perception Class A Ordinary Share to be issued shall be deemed to have a value of $10.00.

(b) Blue Merger Effective Time. On the Blue Merger Effective Date, BGHL and Blue Merger Sub shall execute and cause to be filed with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands such documents as may be required in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Cayman Act or by any other applicable Law to make the Blue Merger effective. The Blue Merger shall become effective at the time when the Blue Merger has been registered by the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands or at such later time as permitted by the Cayman Act as may be agreed by Blue Merger Sub and BGHL in writing with the prior written consent of Perception (such time, the “Blue Merger Effective Time”).

(c) Effect of the Blue Merger. At and after the Blue Merger Effective Time, the effect of the Blue Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement and the applicable provisions of the Cayman Act. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at the Blue Merger Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, agreements, powers and franchises, debts, Liabilities, duties and obligations of BGHL and Blue Merger Sub shall vest in and become the property, rights, privileges, agreements, powers and franchises, debts, Liabilities, duties and obligations of Blue Merger Sub as New Blue (including all rights and obligations with respect to the Trust Account subject to the terms hereof), which shall include the assumption by New Blue of any and all agreements, covenants, duties and obligations of BGHL and Blue Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement, and any Ancillary Documents to which BGHL or Blue Merger Sub is a party, to be performed after the Blue Merger Effective Time. As of the Blue Merger Effective Time, FGR and Blue Shareholders shall cease to have any other rights in and to BGHL, and FGR and the Blue Shareholders shall be shareholders of New Perception and New Blue shall continue as a wholly owned Subsidiary of New Perception.

(d) Memorandum and Articles of Association. At the Blue Merger Effective Time, the memorandum and articles of association of BGHL, as in effect immediately before the Blue Merger Effective Time, shall be amended and restated substantially in a form to be agreed upon by the Parties (the “A&R Articles of New Blue”) and, as so amended and restated, shall be the memorandum and articles of association of the New Blue on and from the Blue Merger Effective Time until amended in accordance with its provisions and the Cayman Act.

2

(e) Directors and Officers of New Blue. At the Blue Merger Effective Time, the board of directors and executive officers of BGHL shall cease to hold office, and the board of directors and officers of New Blue shall be as determined by the Parties, each to hold office in accordance with the A&R Articles of New Blue until their respective successors are duly elected or appointed and qualified or their earlier death, resignation, or removal.

(f) Effect of Blue Merger on Blue Merger Sub and BGHL Securities. At the Blue Merger Effective Time, by virtue of and in consideration for the Blue Merger and without any action (save as set out in this subsection (f)) on the part of any Party or the holders of securities of BGHL or Blue Merger Sub:

(i) BGHL Ordinary Shares. Each BGHL Ordinary Share issued and outstanding immediately before the Blue Merger Effective Time shall be converted into the right to receive the number of New Perception Class A Ordinary Shares equal to a fraction, the numerator of which is 11,450,000 and the denominator equals the aggregate number of BGHL Ordinary Shares outstanding as of immediately before the Blue Merger Effective Time. Following such conversion, all BGHL Ordinary Shares shall cease to be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and shall cease to exist. As of the Blue Merger Effective Time, each Blue Shareholder shall cease to have any other rights in and to BGHL except as provided in this Agreement or by Law.

(ii) BGHL Treasury Shares. At the Blue Merger Effective Time, if there are any BGHL Ordinary Shares that are treasury shares or any BGHL Ordinary Shares owned by any direct or indirect Subsidiary of BGHL immediately before the Blue Merger Effective Time, such BGHL Ordinary Shares shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist without any conversion or payment.

(iii) Blue Merger Sub Shares. All Blue Merger Sub Ordinary Shares issued and outstanding immediately before the Blue Merger Effective Time shall automatically be converted into one (1) New Blue Ordinary Share, with the rights, powers and privileges given to such share by the A&R Articles of New Blue and the Cayman Act and such New Blue Ordinary Share shall constitute the only outstanding share of New Blue immediately following the Blue Merger Effective Time. Immediately following the Blue Merger Effective Time, as holder of the sole New Blue Ordinary Share, New Perception shall be the sole and exclusive owner of all shares of New Blue and the register of members of New Blue shall be updated at the Blue Merger Effective Time to reflect the foregoing.

(g) Surrender of BGHL Securities and Disbursement of the Blue Merger Consideration.

(i) Prior to the Blue Merger Effective Time, FGR shall deliver to the Exchange Agent all of the original certificates for the BGHL Ordinary Shares, and deliver such other documents reasonably requested by New Perception and in exchange New Perception shall issue and cause the Exchange Agent to deliver to the Blue Shareholders the Merger Consideration, in accordance with the Cayman Act.

(ii) After the Blue Merger Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of BGHL Ordinary Shares.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no fraction of a New Perception Class A Ordinary Share will be issued by virtue of the Merger Consideration and any portion that would otherwise be a fractional New Perception Class A Ordinary Share will instead be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

1.3 Perception Securities.

(a) Each unit consisting of one Perception Ordinary Share and one-half of one Perception Warrant shall, as of immediately prior to the Perception Reorganization, automatically separate into its component securities and be converted into Perception Ordinary Shares or Perception Warrants to purchase Perception Ordinary Shares; provided, however, no fractional Perception Warrants to purchase Perception Ordinary Shares will be issued and any fraction that remains after issuance of whole Perception Warrants will expire worthless. Upon the effectiveness of the Perception Reorganization, each issued and outstanding Perception Ordinary Share shall be converted into a New Perception Ordinary Share and each whole Perception Warrant shall be converted into a warrant to purchase a New Perception Ordinary Share.

3

(b) Upon the effectiveness of the Perception Reorganization, each issued and outstanding Class B Ordinary Share of Perception shall be converted into a Class B Ordinary Share of Perception.

1.4 A&R New Perception Charter. Effective upon the New Perception Reorganization, Perception Merger Sub shall amend and restate its Organizational Documents in a form mutually agreeable to BGHL and Perception (the “A&R Articles of New Perception”). The A&R Articles of New Perception shall, among other changes to be mutually agreed upon provide for size and structure of the post-closing Perception Board in accordance with this Agreement.

1.5 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Blue Merger Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, the officers and directors of the Parties are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

1.6 Perception Reorganization Intended Tax Treatment. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, Perception and Perception Merger Sub intend that the Perception Reorganization will constitute a transaction that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code to which each of Perception and Perception Merger Sub is a party under Section 368(b) of the Code (the “Perception Reorganization Intended Tax Treatment”). Perception and Perception Merger Sub hereby (i) adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” with respect to the Perception Reorganization within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g), (ii) agree to file and retain such information as shall be required under Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-3, and (iii) agree to file all Tax and other informational returns on a basis consistent with the Perception Reorganization Tax Treatment, unless otherwise required by a Taxing Authority as a result of a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Perception and Perception Merger Sub acknowledge and agree that no Party is making any representation or warranty as to the qualification of Perception Reorganization for the Perception Reorganization Tax Treatment or as to the effect, if any, that any transaction consummated on, after or prior to the Perception Reorganization Effective Time has or may have on any such reorganization status. Each of Perception and Perception Merger Sub acknowledge and agree that each (i) has had the opportunity to obtain independent legal and tax advice with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) is responsible for paying its own Taxes, including any adverse Tax consequences that may result if the Perception Reorganization is determined not to qualify for the Perception Reorganization Tax Treatment.

1.7 Blue Merger Intended Tax Treatment. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, each of the Parties intends that the Blue Merger will constitute a transaction that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code to which each of New Perception, Blue Merger Sub and BGHL is a party under Section 368(b) of the Code (the “Blue Merger Intended Tax Treatment”). The parties to this Agreement hereby (i) adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” with respect to the Blue Merger within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g), (ii) agree to file and retain such information as shall be required under Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-3, and (iii) agree to file all Tax and other informational returns on a basis consistent with the Blue Merger Intended Tax Treatment, unless otherwise required by a Taxing Authority as a result of a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that no Party is making any representation or warranty as to the qualification of the Blue Merger for the Blue Merger Intended Tax Treatment or as to the effect, if any, that any transaction consummated on, after or prior to the Blue Merger Effective Time has or may have on any such reorganization status. Each of the parties acknowledge and agree that each (i) has had the opportunity to obtain independent legal and tax advice with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and (ii) is responsible for paying its own Taxes, including any adverse Tax consequences that may result if the Blue Merger is determined not to qualify for the Blue Merger Intended Tax Treatment.

There are no Contracts to which BGHL or any of its Affiliates is a party or bound with respect to the voting (including voting trusts or proxies) of the equity interests of any Subsidiary of BGHL other than the Organizational Documents of any such Subsidiary, and consummating the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not result in a change in control or otherwise give rights to any equity holder in any BGHL’s Subsidiary. There are no outstanding or authorized options, warrants, rights, agreements, subscriptions, convertible securities or commitments to which any Subsidiary of BGHL is a party, or which are binding upon any Subsidiary of BGHL providing for the issuance or redemption of any equity interests of any Subsidiary of BGHL.

No Target Company is a party or subject to any Intellectual Property licenses, sublicenses and other agreements or permissions (“Blue IP Licenses”) (other than “shrink wrap,” “click wrap,” and “off the shelf” software agreements and other agreements for Software commercially available on reasonable terms to the public generally (collectively, “Off-the-Shelf Software”), which are not required to be listed, although such licenses are “Blue IP Licenses” as that term is used), under which a Target Company is a licensee or otherwise is authorized to use or practice any Intellectual Property. Each Target Company owns, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens), has valid and enforceable rights in, and has the unrestricted right to use, sell, license, transfer or assign, all Intellectual Property currently used, licensed or held for use by such Target Company, except for the Intellectual Property that is the subject of Blue IP Licenses.

(b) Each Target Company has a written license to use all Intellectual Property that is the subject of Blue IP Licenses applicable to such Target Company. Blue IP Licenses include all of the licenses, sublicenses and other agreements or permissions necessary to operate the Target Companies as presently conducted. Each Target Company has performed all material obligations imposed on it in Blue IP Licenses, has made all payments required to date, and such Target Company is not, nor, to BGHL’s Knowledge, is any other party in breach or default, nor has any event occurred that with notice or lapse of time or both would constitute a default. The continued use by the Target Companies of the Intellectual Property that is the subject of Blue IP Licenses in the same manner that it is currently being used is not restricted by any applicable license of any Target Company. All registrations for Copyrights, Patents, Trademarks and Internet Assets that are owned by any Target Company are valid, in force and in good standing with all required fees and maintenance fees having been paid with no Actions pending, and all applications to register any Copyrights, Patents and Trademarks are pending and in good standing, all without challenge of any kind.

No Target Company has received any written notice or claim asserting or suggesting that any infringement, misappropriation, violation, dilution or unauthorized use of the Intellectual Property of any other Person is or may be occurring or has or may have occurred, as a consequence of the business activities of any Target Company, nor to BGHL’s Knowledge is there a reasonable basis. There are no Orders to which any Target Company is a party or its otherwise bound that (i) restrict the rights of a Target Company to use, transfer, license or enforce any Intellectual Property owned by a Target Company, (ii) restrict the conduct of the business of a Target Company in order to accommodate a third Person’s Intellectual Property, or (iii) grant any third Person any right with respect to any Intellectual Property owned by a Target Company. To the knowledge of BGHL, no Target Company is currently infringing, or has, in the past, infringed, misappropriated or violated any Intellectual Property of any other Person in any material respect in connection with the ownership, use or license of any Intellectual Property owned or purported to be owned by a Target Company or, to BGHL’s Knowledge, otherwise in connection with the conduct of the respective businesses of the Target Companies. To BGHL’s Knowledge, no third party is currently, infringing upon, misappropriating or otherwise violating any Intellectual Property owned, licensed by, licensed to, or otherwise used or held for use by any Target Company (“Blue IP”) in any material respect.

(e) No current or former officers, employees or independent contractors of a Target Company have claimed any ownership interest in any Intellectual Property owned by a Target Company.

BGHL has made available to Perception true and complete copies of all written Contracts referenced in subsections under which employees and independent contractors assigned their Intellectual Property to a Target Company. To BGHL’s Knowledge, none of the employees of any Target Company is obligated under any Contract, or subject to any Order, that would materially interfere with the use of such employee’s best efforts to promote the interests of the Target Companies, or that would materially conflict with the business of any Target Company as presently conducted or contemplated to be conducted. Each Target Company has taken reasonable security measures in its industry to protect the secrecy, confidentiality and value of the material Blue IP.

Each Target Company has complied in all material respects with all applicable Laws and Contract requirements relating to privacy, personal data protection, and the collection, processing and use of personal information and its own privacy policies and guidelines. The operation of the business of the Target Companies has not and does not violate any right to privacy or publicity of any third person, or constitute unfair competition or trade practices under applicable Law.

ARTICLE X
WAIVERS AND RELEASES

10.1 Waiver of Claims Against Trust. Reference is made to the IPO Prospectus. BGHL represents and warrants that it has read the IPO Prospectus and understands that Perception has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of the IPO and the overallotment shares acquired by Perception’s underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time) for the benefit of Perception’s public shareholders (including overallotment shares acquired by Perception’s underwriters) (the “Public Shareholders”) and that, except as otherwise described in the IPO Prospectus, Perception may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Shareholders in the event they elect to redeem their Perception Ordinary Shares in connection with the consummation of its initial business combination (as such term is used in the IPO Prospectus) or in connection with an amendment to Perception’s Organizational Documents to extend Perception’s deadline to consummate a Business Combination, (b) to the Public Shareholders if Perception fails to consummate a Business Combination within 18 months after the closing of the IPO, subject to extension by amendment to Perception’s Organizational Documents, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any Taxes and up to $100,000 in dissolution expenses, and (d) to Perception after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. In consideration of Perception entering into this Agreement BGHL agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that neither BGHL nor any of its Affiliates do now or shall at any future time have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between Perception or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and BGHL or any of its Representatives, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (collectively, the “Released Claims”). BGHL on behalf of itself and its Affiliates irrevocably waives any Released Claims that any such Party or any of its Affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions) now or in the future and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with Perception or its Affiliates). BGHL agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by Perception and its Affiliates to induce Perception to enter in this Agreement, and BGHL further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against such Party and each of its Affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent that BGHL or any of its Affiliates commences any Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to Perception or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against Perception or its Representatives, BGHL acknowledges and agrees that it and its Affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit such Party or any of its Affiliates (or any Person claiming on behalf or in lieu of any of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions) or any amounts. This Section 10.1 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
