(d) except as contemplated by the Merger Agreement or the Ancillary Documents, not make, or in any manner participate in, directly or indirectly, a “solicitation “of “proxies” or consents (as such terms are used in the rules of the SEC) or powers of attorney or similar rights to vote, or seek to advise or influence any Person with respect to the voting of, any shares of Purchaser capital stock in connection with any vote or other action with respect to the Transactions, other than to recommend that Purchaser Stockholders vote in favor of adoption of the Merger Agreement and the Transactions and any other proposal the approval of which is a condition to the obligations of the Company or Purchaser under the Merger Agreement (and any actions required in furtherance thereof and otherwise as expressly provided by Section 1 of this Agreement).
2. Grant of Proxy. During the Voting Period, the Sponsor, with respect to all of the Sponsor’s Shares, hereby irrevocably grants to, and appoints, Purchaser and any designee of Purchaser (determined in Purchaser’s sole discretion) as Sponsor’s attorney-in-fact and proxy, with full power of substitution and resubstitution, for and in Sponsor’s name, to vote, or cause to be voted (including by proxy or written consent, if applicable) any Shares owned (whether beneficially or of record) by Xxxxxxx, solely on the matters and in the manner specified in Section 1 above. The proxy and power of attorney granted by Sponsor pursuant to this Section 2 are irrevocable and are granted in consideration of Purchaser entering into this Agreement and the Company and Purchaser entering into the Merger Agreement and incurring certain related fees and expenses. Sponsor hereby affirms that such irrevocable proxy is coupled with an interest by reason of the Merger Agreement and, except upon the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5(a), is intended to be irrevocable. The proxy and power of attorney granted hereunder shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Purchaser and the Company hereby acknowledge that the Shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions and voting obligations (consistent with the obligations under this Agreement) under the letter agreement, dated October 26, 2021 (the “Insider Letter”), among Purchaser, Sponsor and other parties thereto.
5. Miscellaneous.
(a) Termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Agreement shall automatically terminate, and none of the Company, Purchaser or Sponsor shall have any rights or obligations hereunder, upon the earliest to occur of (i) the mutual written consent of the Company, Purchaser and Sponsor, (ii) the Effective Time (following the performance of the obligations of the parties hereunder required to be performed at or prior to the Effective Time), (iii) the date of termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, (iv) at the election of Sponsor, any amendment to the Merger Agreement or any waiver of any provision of the Merger Agreement which amendment or waiver is adverse to Sponsor in a manner disproportionate to the other Purchaser Stockholders as a whole and which has not been approved by the Board of Directors of Purchaser, and (v) if the Outside Date is extended for a period of more than thirty (30) days unless such further extension has received the approval of the Board of Directors of Purchaser. The termination of this Agreement shall not prevent any party hereunder from seeking any remedies (at law or in equity) against another party hereto or relieve such party from liability for such party’s material breach of, or fraud committed in connection with, this Agreement prior to such termination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the provisions of this Section 5(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(c) Third Parties. Nothing contained in this Agreement or in any instrument or document executed by any party in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby shall create any rights in, or be deemed to have been executed for the benefit of, any Person that is not a party hereto or thereto or a successor or permitted assign of such a party.

(d) Arbitration. Any and all disputes, controversies and claims (other than applications for a temporary restraining order, preliminary injunction, permanent injunction or other equitable relief or application for enforcement of a resolution under this Section 5(d)) arising out of, related to, or in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Dispute”) shall be governed by this Section 5(d). A party must, in the first instance, provide written notice of any Disputes to the other parties subject to such Dispute, which notice must provide a reasonably detailed description of the matters subject to the Dispute. The parties involved in such Dispute shall seek to resolve the Dispute on an amicable basis within ten (10) Business Days of the notice of such Dispute being received by such other parties subject to such Dispute (the “Resolution Period”); provided, that if any Dispute would reasonably be expected to have become moot or otherwise irrelevant if not decided within sixty (60) days after the occurrence of such Dispute, then there shall be no Resolution Period with respect to such Dispute. Any Dispute that is not resolved during the Resolution Period may immediately be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration pursuant to the then-existing Expedited Procedures (as defined in the AAA Procedures) of the Commercial Arbitration Rules (the “AAA Procedures”) of the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”). Any party involved in such Dispute may submit the Dispute to the AAA to commence the proceedings after the Resolution Period. To the extent that the AAA Procedures and this Agreement are in conflict, the terms of this Agreement shall control. The arbitration shall be conducted by one arbitrator nominated by the AAA promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days) after the submission of the Dispute to the AAA and reasonably acceptable to each party subject to the Dispute, which arbitrator shall be a commercial lawyer with substantial experience arbitrating disputes under acquisition agreements. The arbitrator shall accept his or her appointment and begin the arbitration process promptly (but in any event within five (5) Business Days) after his or her nomination and acceptance by the parties subject to the Dispute. The proceedings shall be streamlined and efficient. The arbitrator shall decide the Dispute in accordance with the substantive law of the state of New York. Time is of the essence. Each party subject to the Dispute shall submit a proposal for resolution of the Dispute to the arbitrator within twenty (20) days after confirmation of the appointment of the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall have the power to order any party to do, or to refrain from doing, anything consistent with this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, the Ancillary Documents and applicable Law, including to perform its contractual obligation(s); provided, that the arbitrator shall be limited to ordering pursuant to the foregoing power (and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall order) the relevant party (or parties, as applicable) to comply with only one or the other of the proposals. The arbitrator’s award shall be in writing and shall include a reasonable explanation of the arbitrator’s reason(s) for selecting one or the other proposal. The seat of arbitration shall be in New York County, State of New York. The language of the arbitration shall be English.
(e) Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement and any dispute or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of law principles thereof. Subject to Section 5(d), all Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be heard and determined exclusively in any state or federal court located in the New York (or in any appellate courts thereof) (the “Specified Courts”). Subject to Section 5(d), each party hereto hereby (i) submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of any Specified Court for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto and (ii) irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert by way of motion, defense or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may not be enforced in or by any Specified Court. Each party agrees that a final judgment in any Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Xxx. Each party irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process in any other action or proceeding relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, on behalf of itself, or its property, by personal delivery of copies of such process to such party at the applicable address set forth or referred to in Section 5(i). Nothing in this Section 5(e) shall affect the right of any party to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by applicable law.
6 |
(f) WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY HERETO (i) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THAT FOREGOING WAIVER AND (ii) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THEOTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 5(f).

(h) Capacity as a Purchaser Stockholder. Sponsor signs this Agreement solely in Sponsor’s capacity as a Purchaser Stockholder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing herein shall in anyway restrict a director or officer of Purchaser in the exercise of his or her fiduciary duties as a director or officer of Purchaser or prevent or be construed to create any obligation on the part of any director or officer of Purchaser from taking any action in his other capacity as such director or officer.

(l) Specific Performance. Sponsor acknowledges that its obligations under this Agreement are unique, recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by Sponsor, money damages will be inadequate and that the Company will not have 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 Sponsor in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the Company shall be entitled to an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Agreement by Sponsor 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.

Each party shall be responsible for its own fees and expenses (including the fees and expenses of investment bankers, accountants and counsel, if applicable) in connection with the entering into of this Agreement, the performance of its obligations hereunder and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby; provided, that in the event of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the non-prevailing party in any such Action will pay its own expenses and the reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses, including reasonable attorneys ‘fees and costs, reasonably incurred by the prevailing party.
(n) No Partnership, Agency or Joint Venture. This Agreement is intended to create a contractual relationship among Sponsor, Purchaser and the Company, and is not intended to create, and does not create, any agency, partnership, joint venture or any like relationship among the parties hereto or among any other Purchaser Stockholders entering into voting agreements with Purchaser or the Company. Sponsor has acted independently regarding its decision to enter into this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Purchaser or the Company any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any Shares. All rights, ownership and economic benefits of Sponsor in and relating to the Shares of Sponsor shall remain vested in and belong to Sponsor, and the Company shall have no authority to manage, direct, restrict, regulate, govern or administer any of the policies or operations of Purchaser or exercise any power or authority to direct Sponsor in the voting or disposition of any of the Shares, except as otherwise provided herein.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall limit any of the rights or remedies of Purchaser or the Company or any of the obligations of Sponsor under any other agreement between Sponsor and Purchaser or the Company or any certificate or instrument executed by Sponsor in favor of Purchaser or the Company, and nothing in any other agreement, certificate or instrument shall limit any of the rights or remedies of Purchaser or the Company or any of the obligations of Sponsor under this Agreement.
(q) Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may also be executed and delivered by facsimile or electronic signature or 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.
