Initial Public Offering (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to Section 4.01(d), in connection with any Initial Public Offering approved in accordance with this Agreement, the Members hereby agree to discuss in good faith whether any of the rights and obligations of the parties hereto and the Company under this Agreement should be amended, restructured or terminated, including, without limitation, whether any of the rights set forth in Section 4.01(d) or 8.04 hereof should be terminated or made subject to any time limitations (or time and volume limitations in the case of Section 5.04 hereof), in order to permit the Initial Public Offering to be effected in a manner consistent with applicable Law, market custom and the recommendations of the Global Coordinators in light of market conditions at such time and the listing requirements of the exchange or market on which the Initial Public Offering is to be effected, taking into account, among other things, the rights of the Preferred Members hereunder and their goal and expectation that the Preferred Payment be effected as promptly as practicable after the date hereof; provided, however, that this sentence shall not in any way either (x) obligate any of the Members or the Company to agree to any amendment, restructuring or termination of any such rights or (y) affect or nullify any rights or obligations of the Members or the Company under this Agreement.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein but subject to Section 4.01(d), in connection with any Initial Public Offering of the Company (or its successor corporation) or any newly formed corporation as described below, approved in accordance with this Agreement, and upon the request of the Board of Managers, each of the Members hereby agrees that it will, at the expense of the Entity subject to such Public Offering, take such action and execute such documents as may reasonably be necessary to effect such Public Offering as expeditiously as possible, including, without limitation, taking all such actions and executing such documents as may reasonably be necessary to convert the Company into a corporation or to contribute its respective Securities to a newly formed corporation, in each case substantially concurrently with the closing of such Public Offering; provided, however, that in connection with any such conversion or contribution (i) each Preferred Member shall be entitled to receive preferred stock of the corporation whose shares of common stock are being sold in connection with such Public Offering with the same economic rights as such Preferred Member was entitled to prior to such conversion or contribution, including with an aggregate liquidation preference equal to the amount such Preferred Member would be entitled to receive, in respect of the Preferred Units which such Preferred Member held in the Company immediately prior to such conversion or contribution, under Section 5.02 hereof if a liquidation of the Company had occurred immediately prior to the consummation of such Public Offering with the proceeds in such liquidation equal in amount to the implied aggregate equity valuation of the Company (as reasonably determined by the Board of Managers in good faith with the reasonable agreement of a Majority in Interest of the Preferred Members) immediately prior to the consummation of such
Counterparty Share Repurchases Counterparty agrees not to repurchase, directly or indirectly, any Shares if, immediately following such purchase, the Outstanding Share Percentage would be equal to or greater than 4.5%. The “Outstanding Share Percentage” as of any day is the fraction (1) the numerator of which is the aggregate of the Number of Shares for this Transaction and the “Number of Shares” under each Additional Equity Derivative Transaction that is a share forward transaction and (2) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding on such day.
Forward Purchase Securities (i) The Company shall issue and sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, 2,500,000 Forward Purchase Units for a purchase price of $10.00 per Forward Purchase Unit, or $25,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Forward Purchase Price”).
(ii) Each Forward Purchase Warrant will have the same terms as each Private Placement Warrant, and will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Warrant Agreement to be entered into between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as Warrant Agent, in connection with the IPO (the “Warrant Agreement”). Each Forward Purchase Warrant will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Class A Share at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described in the Warrant Agreement, and only whole Forward Purchase Warrants will be exercisable. The Forward Purchase Warrants will become exercisable on the later of 30 days after the Business Combination Closing and 12 months from the IPO Closing, and will expire five years after the Business Combination Closing or earlier upon the liquidation of the Company, as described in the Warrant Agreement. The Forward Purchase Warrants will be non-redeemable and exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the Purchaser or its Permitted Transferees (as defined below). For so long as the Forward Purchase Warrants are held by the Purchaser or its Permitted Transferees, the Forward Purchase Warrants will not be exercisable more than five years from the effective date of the Registration Statement in accordance with FINRA Rule 5110(f)(2)(G)(i). If the Forward Purchase Warrants are held by Persons (as defined below) other than the Purchaser or its Permitted Transferees, the Forward Purchase Warrants will have the same terms as the Public Warrants, as set forth in the Warrant Agreement.
(iii) The Company shall require the Purchaser to purchase the Forward Purchase Units by delivering notice to the Purchaser, at least five (5) Business Days before the Business Combination Closing, specifying the date of the Business Combination Closing and instructions for wiring the Forward Purchase Price. The closing of the sale of Forward Purchase Units (the “Forward Closing”) shall be held on the same date and immediately prior to the Business Combination Closing (such date being referred to as the “Forward Closing Date”). At least one (1) Business Day prior to the Forward Closing Date, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Company, to be held in escrow until the Forward Closing, the Forward Purchase Price for the Forward Purchase Securities by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by the Company in such notice. Immediately prior to the Forward Closing on the Forward Closing Date, (A) the Forward Purchase Price shall be released from escrow automatically and without further action by the Company or the Purchaser, and (B) upon such release, the Company shall issue the Forward Purchase Units to the Purchaser in book-entry form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions whatsoever (other than those arising under state or federal securities laws), registered in the name of the Purchaser (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions), or to a custodian designated by the Purchaser, as applicable. In the event the Business Combination Closing does not occur on the date scheduled for closing, the Forward Closing shall not occur and the Company shall promptly (but not later than one (1) Business Day thereafter) return the Forward Purchase Price to the Purchaser.

Each party or its designee will adopt, implement and maintain procedures reasonably designed to ensure the accuracy of all transmissions through the NSCC Systems and to limit the access to, and the inputting of data into, the NSCC Systems to persons specifically authorized by such party. On each day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading and on which the Fund calculates its net asset value pursuant to the rules of the SEC (“Business Day”), the Company shall aggregate and calculate the net purchase and redemption orders for each Account received by the Company by the close of the New York Stock Exchange (generally, 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time) (the “Close of Trading”) on the Business Day. The Company shall communicate to the Fund or its designee for that Business Day, by Fund/SERV, the net aggregate purchase or redemption orders (if any) for each Account received by the Close of Trading on such Business Day (the “Trade Date”) no later than 7:00 a.m. Eastern Time (or such other time as may be agreed by the parties from time to time) (the “Fund/SERV Transactions Deadline”) on the Business Day following the Trade Date. All such aggregated orders communicated to the Fund or its designee by the Fund/SERV Transactions Deadline on the Business Day following the Trade Date shall be treated by the Fund or its designee as if received prior to the Close of Trading on the Trade Date. All orders received by the Company after the Close of Trading on a Business Day shall not be aggregated with Orders received by the Company prior to the Close of Trading on such Business Day and shall be communicated to BRIL or its designee as part of an aggregated order no sooner than after the FUND/SERV Transactions Deadline or such other time as may be agreed by the parties from time to time) the following Business Day. Cash settlement shall be transmitted pursuant to the normal NSCC settlement process. In the case of delayed settlement, the Fund or its designee shall make arrangements for the settlement of redemptions by wire no later than the time permitted for settlement of redemption orders by the 1940 Act. Unless otherwise informed in writing, such redemption wires should be sent to an account specified by the Company and agreed to by Fund Parties.
