provided, however, that in the case of clauses (i) through (viii), these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement, in substantially the form of this Agreement, agreeing to be bound by the Lock-Up Restrictions and shall have the same rights and benefits as a Founder Shareholder under this Agreement.

Additional Sponsor Agreements; Sponsor Share Forfeiture and Earn-Out

5.1 Sponsor Affiliate PIPE Financing and Lock-Up Release.

(a) During the Interim Period, Sponsor shall, and shall cause its Affiliates to, use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain executed Subscription Agreements (the “Sponsor Affiliate Subscription Agreements”) from certain Affiliates of Sponsor as may be approved by the Company from time to time pursuant to which such Affiliates of Sponsor commit to participate in the PIPE Financing (the “Sponsor Affiliate PIPE Financing,” and cash proceeds that will be funded prior to, concurrently with, or immediately after, the Closing to the Company in connection with the Sponsor Affiliate PIPE Financing, the “Sponsor Affiliate PIPE Financing Proceeds”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the forfeiture of Sponsor Forfeited Shares pursuant to Section 5.4 shall be the sole remedy for Sponsor’s breach of this Section 5.1(a).

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for every one dollar ($1.00) committed by Sponsor’s applicable Affiliates in any Sponsor Affiliate Subscription Agreements, one Company Warrant held by Sponsor immediately after the First Effective Time shall not be subject to the Lock-Up Restrictions specified in Section 4.12(a) (with any fractional Company Warrants rounded down to the nearest whole number).

5.2 Non-Redemption Agreements. At the request of the Company, Sponsor shall on the Closing Date Transfer to one or more SPAC Shareholders up to five percent (5%) of the Sponsor Shares (the “Bonus Shares”) (either directly or indirectly through Sponsor’s forfeiture of such Bonus Shares and SPAC’s subsequent issuance of the same amount of Bonus Shares to the applicable SPAC Shareholders) as consideration to induce such SPAC Shareholder to waive and agree not to elect to or otherwise exercise its SPAC Shareholder Redemption Right (including by having such SPAC Shareholder enter into, execute and deliver a non-redemption agreement) in connection with SPAC Shareholders’ approval of the Transaction Proposals or approval of both the Extension Proposal and the Transaction Proposals, as may be mutually determined by the Company and SPAC. Sponsor and the Company agree that the Transfer of the Bonus Shares shall be subject to the condition that the Transactions are consummated.

5.3 Business Collaboration. Following the Closing, Representatives of the Sponsor shall use commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate discussions between Representatives of the Company and Representatives of entities holding brands that may be approved by the Company from time to time (each of such entities, a “Cooperating Entity”), with respect to potential collaborations between the Company and a Cooperating Entity in connection with the following activities of the Company: (i) marketing, (ii) customer engagement, (iii) product development, (iv) retail space, and (v) technology infrastructure development. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the forfeiture of Sponsor Earn-Out Shares pursuant to Section 5.7(b) shall be the sole remedy for Sponsor’s breach of this Section 5.3.

5.4 Sponsor Forfeited Shares. Sponsor hereby agrees that, to the extent Sponsor or its Affiliates fail to obtain any Sponsor Affiliate Subscription Agreements during the Interim Period, then immediately prior to the Closing and prior to the SPAC Class B Conversion pursuant to the SPAC Charter, Sponsor shall surrender to SPAC for cancellation twenty percent (20%) of the Sponsor Shares (the “Sponsor Forfeited Shares”) (rounded down to the nearest whole share). For the avoidance of doubt, if Sponsor or any of its Affiliates obtain any Sponsor Affiliate Subscription Agreements, no forfeiture of the Sponsor Shares shall be required pursuant to this Section 5.4. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Sponsor may purchase additional securities in SPAC in the open market or from SPAC Shareholders following entry into the Merger Agreement, including in connection with any extension of the Business Combination Deadline, and any additional securities so purchased will not be included in the Sponsor Shares or subject to the restrictions or obligations in this Article V.

5.5 Sponsor Earn-Out Shares. Sponsor agrees that, immediately prior to the Closing, ten percent (10%) of the Sponsor Shares (the “Sponsor Earn-Out Shares”, rounded down to the nearest whole share) shall (a) first, pursuant to Section 2.3(a) of the Merger Agreement and in connection with the SPAC Class B Conversion, automatically convert to SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares which shall be unvested and be subject to the vesting and forfeiture provisions set forth in Section 5.7, and (b) second, pursuant to Section 2.3(c) of the Merger Agreement and by virtue of the Mergers, automatically convert to Company Class A Ordinary Shares and remain unvested and be subject to the vesting and forfeiture provisions set forth in Section 5.7. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that the remaining Sponsor Shares (after deducting the Sponsor Forfeited Shares and Sponsor Earn-Out Shares) will be fully vested as of the Closing and not subject to any of the restrictions set forth in Section 5.6 and Section 5.7.

5.6 Lock-Up of Sponsor Earn-Out Shares. Sponsor shall not Transfer any Sponsor Earn-Out Shares until the date on which such Sponsor Earn-Out Share vests pursuant to Section 5.7. Until each Sponsor Earn-Out Share vests, any certificate representing such Sponsor Earn-Out Share shall bear a legend referencing that such Sponsor Earn-Out Share is subject to forfeiture pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, and the Company shall be authorized to instruct its transfer agent to implement appropriate stop transfer orders that will be applicable until such Sponsor Earn-Out Share vests. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the exceptions to the Lock-Up Restrictions in clauses (i) through (xiv) of Section 4.12(b) shall apply fully to this Section 5.6, so long as (1) such Transfer is in compliance with any applicable Securities Laws and (2) any transferee thereof enters into a written agreement, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, and agrees to be bound by the vesting and forfeiture provisions set forth in Section 5.7 and to receive the rights of a holder of the Sponsor Earn-Out Shares hereunder.

5.7 Vesting and Forfeiture of Sponsor Earn-Out Shares.

(a) The Sponsor Earn-Out Shares shall fully vest (and shall not be subject to the restrictions and forfeiture provisions set forth in this Article V, including, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 5.6) upon the occurrence of the Triggering Event. For purposes of this Section 5.7(a), “Triggering Event” means the commencement or official announcement of any business collaborations facilitated by Sponsor or Sponsor’s Affiliates between the Company or its applicable Affiliates, on the one hand, and any Cooperating Entity, on the other hand (including, without limitation, in connection with product development, marketing, customer engagement, retail space, and technology infrastructure development).

(b) To the extent the Triggering Event does not occur on or prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Earn-Out Period”), all Sponsor Earn-Out Shares (including any dividends or other distributions that may be received by Sponsor in respect of any Sponsor Earn-Out Share) shall immediately thereafter be forfeited to the Company and cancelled and Sponsor shall not have any rights with respect thereto. Any forfeiture of Company Ordinary Shares, and all references to forfeiture of Company Ordinary Shares, described in this Agreement shall take effect as a surrender of Company Ordinary Shares for no consideration as a matter of Cayman Islands law.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, any Company Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by Sponsor other than the Sponsor Earn-Out Shares, shall not be subject to the vesting and forfeiture provisions set forth in this Section 5.7.

5.8 Rights of Sponsor Earn-Out Shares. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein, prior to the date that a Sponsor Earn-Out Share is no longer subject to the vesting and forfeiture provisions set forth in Section 5.7, Sponsor will remain entitled to all of the other rights of a holder of Company Ordinary Shares, including to (i) exercise voting rights carried by any Sponsor Earn-Out Share and (ii) receive any dividends or other distributions in respect of any Sponsor Earn-Out Share, provided, however, any such dividends or other distributions are subject to the forfeiture provisions set forth in Section 5.7(b).

5.9 Voting Stock. The parties hereto agree and acknowledge that the Sponsor Earn-Out Shares are intended to constitute “voting stock” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder received by Sponsor in connection with the Mergers, and shall file all Tax Returns consistent with, and take no position inconsistent with (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise) such treatment.

5.10 Equitable Adjustment. If, during the period between Closing and prior to the expiration of the Earn-Out Period, the Company shall pay a dividend on Company Ordinary Shares by the issuance of additional Company Ordinary Shares, or effect a subdivision or combination or consolidation of the issued and outstanding Company Ordinary Shares (by reclassification or otherwise) into a greater or lesser number of Company Ordinary Shares, then in each such case, the number of Sponsor Earn-Out Shares shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of Company Ordinary Shares (including any other shares so reclassified as Company Ordinary Shares) issued and outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of Company Ordinary Shares that were issued and outstanding immediately prior to such event.

Any holder of a Locked-Up Security is an express third-party beneficiary of this Section 6.3 and entitled to enforce specifically the obligations of the Company set forth in this Section 6.3 directly against the Company.

Other than in connection with the Transfer of any Subject Shares or Locked-Up Securities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, which shall not be deemed to be an assignment of this Agreement or the rights or obligations hereunder, no party hereto shall assign this Agreement or any part hereof without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto and any such transfer without prior written consent shall be void. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

6.8 Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Trial by Jury. THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN NEW YORK COUNTY, STATE OF NEW YORK (OR ANY APPELLATE COURTS THEREFROM) SOLELY IN RESPECT OF THE INTERPRETATION AND ENFORCEMENT OF THE PROVISIONS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, AND HEREBY WAIVE, AND AGREE NOT TO ASSERT, AS A DEFENSE IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING FOR INTERPRETATION OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF OR THAT SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING MAY NOT BE BROUGHT OR IS NOT MAINTAINABLE IN SAID COURTS OR THAT VENUE THEREOF MAY NOT BE APPROPRIATE OR THAT THIS AGREEMENT MAY NOT BE ENFORCED IN OR BY SUCH COURTS, AND THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT ALL CLAIMS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING SHALL BE HEARD AND DETERMINED BY ANY SUCH COURT. THE PARTIES HEREBY CONSENT TO AND GRANT ANY SUCH COURT JURISDICTION OVER THE PERSON OF SUCH PARTIES AND OVER THE SUBJECT MATTER OF SUCH DISPUTE AND AGREE THAT MAILING OF PROCESS OR OTHER PAPERS IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING IN THE MANNER PROVIDED IN SECTION 6.4 OR IN SUCH OTHER MANNER AS MAY BE PERMITTED BY LAW SHALL BE VALID AND SUFFICIENT SERVICE THEREOF.

It is accordingly agreed that the parties hereto shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, without proof of damages, prior to the valid termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 6.2, this being in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at law or in equity. In the event that any Action shall be brought in equity to enforce the provisions of this Agreement, no party shall allege, and each party hereby waives the defense, that there is an adequate remedy at law, and each party agrees to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection therewith.
