NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises, representations, warranties and the mutual covenants contained in this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt, sufficiency and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Backstop Limit; Backstop Notice.

(a) Backstop Floor and Limit.

(i) the number of Backstop Shares that the Purchaser shall be required to purchase and the Purchase Price (as defined below) (as calculated in accordance with Section 2(a)(i)), which amount, for the avoidance of doubt, shall in no event be less than $100,000,000.00 or greater than $250,000,000.00;

(ii) the Company’s wire instructions; and

The number of Backstop Shares, the Backstop Floor, the Backstop Limit and the purchase price per Backstop Share, as applicable, shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, stock combination, recapitalization or the like (except for the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement in accordance therewith) occurring after the date hereof.

(iii) The closing of the purchase and sale of the Backstop Shares (the “Backstop Closing”) shall be held substantially concurrently with the Closing. At the Backstop Closing (and no later than on the Closing Date), the Company will issue to the Purchaser the Backstop Shares free and clear of any liens or other restrictions (other than those arising under applicable securities laws, the Certificate of Designations, the Bylaws or that certain investor rights agreement to be entered into at the Backstop Closing by and between the Company and the Purchaser in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B (the “Investor Rights Agreement”)), registered in the name of the Purchaser, against (and concurrently with) the payment by the Purchaser of an amount equal to the Purchase Price minus the Structuring Fee (as defined below) for the Backstop Shares to the Company by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account notified to the Purchaser by the Company in the Backstop Notice.

(iv) In the event the Closing does not occur within five (5) Business Days of the anticipated Closing Date set forth in the Backstop Notice, the Company shall promptly (but no later than two (2) Business Days thereafter) return the entire amount paid by the Purchaser to the Company in accordance with Section 2(a)(iii) to Purchaser (without any deduction for or on account of any tax, withholding, charges or set-off), and any book entries or share certificates representing the Backstop Shares shall be deemed cancelled and any such certificates shall be promptly (but not later than two (2) Business Days thereafter) returned to the Company; provided, however, that unless this Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 7, such return of funds will not terminate this Agreement or relieve Purchaser of its obligation to purchase the Backstop Shares upon delivery by the Company of a subsequent Backstop Notice in accordance with Section 1.

(b) Delivery of Backstop Shares.

(i) The Company shall deliver to the Purchaser (x) at the Backstop Closing, the Backstop Shares in book entry form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions (other than those arising under applicable securities laws, the Certificate of Designations or the Investor Rights

(ii) Each register and book entry for the Backstop Shares purchased by the Purchaser hereunder shall contain a notation, and each certificate (if any) evidencing the Backstop Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend, in substantially the following form:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED IN VIOLATION OF SUCH ACT AND LAWS.”

(d) Structuring Fee. As part of the Purchaser’s obligation to allocate committed capital under this Agreement, the Company agrees to pay the Purchaser at the Backstop Closing a fee equal to 2% of the Purchase Price (the “Structuring Fee”). The Structuring Fee shall be offset against the cash payment in respect of the Purchase Price otherwise payable to the Company at the Backstop Closing; provided, that the full amount of the Purchase Price shall be deemed paid in full upon payment by Purchaser of the amount set forth in Section 2(a)(iii). For the avoidance of doubt, under no circumstance will the Structuring Fee be paid more than once.

3. Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser. The Purchaser represents and warrants to each of the Company and Footprint as follows:

(a) Organization and Power. The Purchaser is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation (if the concept of “good standing” is a recognized concept in such jurisdiction) and has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as presently conducted and as proposed to be conducted.

(b) Authorization. The Purchaser has full power and authority, including any necessary corporate or other organizational authority, to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and any other instrument to be entered into, executed and delivered by or on behalf of the Purchaser in connection with the purchase of the Backstop Shares. This Agreement, when executed and delivered by the Purchaser, will constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except (i) as limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and any other laws of general application affecting enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) as limited by laws relating to the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief or other equitable remedies, or (iii) to the extent the indemnification provisions contained in the Registration Rights Agreement may be limited by applicable federal or state securities laws. The signature of the person signing on behalf of the Purchaser is binding on the Purchaser.

(c) Compliance with Other Instruments. The execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of this Agreement and the consummation by the Purchaser of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will not result in any violation or default (i) of any provisions of its organizational documents, if applicable, (ii) of any instrument, judgment, order, writ or decree to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (iii) under any note, indenture or mortgage to which it is a party or by which it is bound, (iv) under any lease, agreement, contract or purchase order to which it is a party or by which it is bound or (v) of any provision of federal or state statute, rule or regulation applicable to the Purchaser, in each case (other than clause (i)), which would have a material adverse effect on the Purchaser or its ability to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(d) No Governmental or other Authorization Required; Consents. Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by the Company in this Agreement, except for any filings and approvals required pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, filings with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Exchange Act and such other reports under, and such other compliance with, the Exchange Act as may be required in connection with this Agreement, or as may have already been obtained, no authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority or any other person will be required to be obtained or made by the Purchaser in connection with the due execution, delivery and performance by the Purchaser of this Agreement.

(e) Restricted Securities. The Purchaser understands that the sale of the Securities to the Purchaser has not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act, by reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the Securities Act which depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Purchaser’s representations as expressed herein. The Purchaser understands that the Securities are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Purchaser must hold the Securities indefinitely unless they are registered with the SEC and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company has no obligation to register or qualify the Securities for resale, except pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement. The Purchaser further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, time and manner of sale limitations, holding period requirements for the Securities, and requirements relating to the Company which are outside of the Purchaser’s control, and which the Company is under no obligation, and may not be able, to satisfy. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1 to consummate its initial public offering with the SEC (the “IPO”). The Purchaser understands that the sale of the Securities hereunder is not, and is not intended to be, part of the IPO, and that the Purchaser will not be able to rely on the protection of Section 11 of the Securities Act with respect to such sale of the Securities. The Purchaser understands that the Backstop Shares may not be resold, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of by the Purchaser absent an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, except (i) to the Company, Footprint, or a subsidiary thereof, (ii) pursuant to offers and sales qualify as “offshore transactions” within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act or (iii) pursuant to another applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and that any certificates representing the Backstop Shares shall contain a legend to such effect. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Backstop Shares will not immediately be eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A promulgated under the Securities Act. The Purchaser understands and agrees that the Backstop Shares will be subject to transfer restrictions under the Securities Act and, as a result of these transfer restrictions, the Purchaser may not be able to readily resell the Backstop Shares and may be required to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Backstop Shares for an indefinite period of time. The Purchaser understands that it has been advised to consult legal counsel prior to making any offer, resale, pledge or transfer of any of the Backstop Shares.

The Purchaser understands that its agreement to purchase the Securities involves a high degree of risk which could cause the Purchaser to lose all or part of its investment, and the Purchaser has the ability to bear the economic risks of an investment in Securities, including a complete loss of its investment. Further, the Purchaser has carefully read, considered and understands (i) any risks identified in the Disclosed Material and (ii) the risks related to the Transactions, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Company, Footprint and the Securities, and has had the opportunity to retain, at its own expense, and relied upon, appropriate professional advice regarding the financial, taxation and legal implications, risk and consequences of the foregoing.

In the event the Purchaser has any Claim against the Company under this Agreement, the Purchaser shall pursue such Claim solely against the Company and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the property or any monies in the Trust Account. The Purchaser agrees and acknowledges that such waiver is material to this Agreement and has been specifically relied upon by the Company to induce the Company to enter into this Agreement and the Purchaser further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable under applicable Law. In the event the Purchaser, in connection with this Agreement, commences any action or proceeding which seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the funds held in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom or against any of the Company’s stockholders, whether in the form of monetary damages or injunctive relief, the Purchaser shall be obligated to pay to the Company all of its legal fees and costs in connection with any such action in the event that the Company prevails in such action or proceeding.

(ii) The Closing shall occur substantially concurrently with the Backstop Closing.

(b) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements, understandings, representations and warranties, both written and oral, among the parties, with respect to the subject matter hereof, including any commitment letter entered into relating to the subject matter hereof.

(c) No Third Party Beneficiaries; Exception. This Agreement shall be binding on, and inure solely to the benefit of, the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns, and nothing set forth in this Agreement shall be construed to confer upon or give any Person, other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, any benefits, rights or remedies under or by reason of, or any rights to enforce or cause the Company to enforce, this Agreement.

(d) Successors. All of the terms, agreements, covenants, representations, warranties, and conditions of this Agreement are binding upon, and inure to the benefit of and are enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors. Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to confer upon any party other than the parties hereto or their respective successors and assigns any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

(e) Assignments. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, no party hereto may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser may assign and delegate all or a portion of its rights and obligations to purchase the Backstop Shares to one or more other persons upon the consent of the Company and Footprint (which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed); provided, however, that no consent of the Company or Footprint shall be required if such assignment or delegation is to an Affiliate, employee, partner or client of Purchaser or its Affiliates; provided, further, that no such assignment or delegation shall relieve the Purchaser of its obligations hereunder (including its obligation to purchase the Backstop Shares) and the Company shall be entitled to pursue all rights and remedies against the Purchaser in respect of its obligations subject to the terms and conditions hereof. Any purported assignment or assumption of this Agreement or any right or obligation hereunder in contravention of this Section 8(e) shall be void ab initio.

(f) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other parties, it being understood that the parties need not sign the same counterpart.

(g) Headings and Captions. The headings and captions of the various subdivisions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way modify or affect the meaning or construction of any of the terms or provisions hereof.

(h) Governing Law. This Agreement, and any claim or cause of action hereunder based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement (whether based on law, in equity, in contract, in tort or any other theory) or the negotiation, execution, performance or enforcement of this Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law thereof.

(i) Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, provided that if subject matter jurisdiction over the matter that is the subject of the legal proceeding is vested exclusively in the U.S. federal courts, such legal proceeding shall be heard in the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (together with the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, “Chosen Courts”), in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement. Each party hereby waives, and shall not assert as a defense in any legal dispute, that (i) such person is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts for any reason, (ii) such legal proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in the Chosen Courts, (iii) such person’s property is exempt or immune from execution, (iv) such legal proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or (v) the venue of such legal proceeding is improper. Each party hereby consents to service of process in any such proceeding in any manner permitted by Delaware law, further consents to service of process by nationally recognized overnight courier service guaranteeing overnight delivery, or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at its address specified pursuant to Section 8(a) and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which they might otherwise have to such manner of service of process. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 8(i), a party may commence any action, claim, cause of action or suit in a court other than the Chosen Courts solely for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by the Chosen Courts. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH OF THE PARTIES WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIMS OR COUNTERCLAIMS ASSERTED IN ANY LEGAL DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING. IF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE IS ONE IN WHICH THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL IS PROHIBITED, NO PARTY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT. FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED.

(j) Modifications and Amendments. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, supplemented or waived except by an instrument in writing, signed by each party hereto.

(k) Waiver of Damages. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall any party be liable for punitive damages in connection with this Agreement.

(l) Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and shall continue in full force and effect.

(m) Expenses. Footprint or, if the Backstop Closing occurs, the Company will pay up to $100,000 of Purchaser’s legal fees associated with the transactions contemplated hereby, above which amount the parties will each be responsible for their costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, execution and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including all fees and expenses of agents, representatives, financial advisors, legal counsel and accountants. In the event the Backstop Closing occurs, the parties may agree that such payment may be satisfied by offset against the amount Purchaser is required to fund pursuant to Section 2(a)(iii).

(n) Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto because of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement. Any reference to any federal, state, local, or foreign law will be deemed also to refer to law as amended and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, unless the context requires otherwise. The words “include,” “includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The parties hereto intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have independent significance. If any party hereto has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which such party hereto has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party hereto is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant.

(o) Waiver. No waiver by any party hereto of any default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder, whether intentional or not, may be deemed to extend to any prior or subsequent default, misrepresentation, or breach of warranty or covenant hereunder or affect in any way any rights arising because of any prior or subsequent occurrence.

(p) Confidentiality. The parties agree that this Agreement and its terms are “Confidential Information” and subject to the terms of the Mutual Confidential Disclosure Agreement between Footprint and Amistad Financial Group, LLC, dated August 19, 2022.

(q) Specific Performance; Enforcement. Each party agrees that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur to each other party in the event that such party does not perform its obligations under any provision of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breaches any such provision. Each party acknowledges and agrees that (i) each other party shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without proof of damages, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at Law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise and (ii) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without that right, the parties would not have entered into this Agreement. Each Party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that another party has an adequate remedy at Law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at Law or equity. The parties acknowledge and agree that, in seeking an injunction to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with this Section 8(q), another party shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such injunction. This Agreement may

be enforced only by the Company, Footprint and the Purchaser, and (other than Footprint) none of the Company’s direct or indirect creditors nor any other person that is not a party to this Agreement shall have any right to enforce this Agreement or to cause the Company to enforce this Agreement.

(r) Further Assurances. Each party will, at the request of the other party, promptly take all actions, and execute and deliver all other agreements and documents, which may be reasonably required to give effect to the terms of and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Holders shall not be entitled to any further payments in the event of any such voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of the Company other than what is expressly provided for in this Section 5 and will have no right or claim to any of the Company’s remaining assets.

(c) Merger, Consolidation and Sale of Assets Not Liquidation. For purposes of this Section 5, a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into any other corporation or other entity, or a sale or conveyance of all or any part of the assets of the Company (which shall not in fact result in the liquidation of the Company and the distribution of assets to its stockholders) shall not be deemed to be a voluntary or involuntary liquidation or dissolution or winding up of the Company.

(b) The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Class A Common Stock, solely for issuance upon the conversion of the Class A Preferred Stock, such number of shares of Class A Common Stock as shall from time to time be issuable upon the conversion of all the shares of Class A Preferred Stock then outstanding (without regard to Section 7(f)).

(iii) if required, furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents; and

(iv) if required, pay any stock transfer, documentary, stamp or similar taxes not payable by the Company pursuant to Section 17.

The “Conversion Date” means with respect to an Optional Conversion pursuant to Section 6(a), the date on which such Holder complies with the procedures in this Section 7 (including the satisfaction of any conditions to conversion set forth in the Conversion Notice).

(b) Effect of Conversion. Effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Conversion Date applicable to any shares of Class A Preferred Stock, subject to Section 7(f), Preferred Dividends shall no longer accrue or be declared on any such shares of Class A Preferred Stock, and on conversion, such shares of Class A Preferred Stock shall cease to be outstanding.

(c) Record Holder of Underlying Securities as of Conversion Date. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the Class A Common Stock and, to the extent applicable, cash on a Conversion Date shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder(s) of such shares of Class A

Common Stock and, to the extent applicable, cash as of the close of business on such Conversion Date. As promptly as practicable on or after the Conversion Date and compliance by the applicable Holder with the relevant procedures contained in this Section 7, the Company shall issue the number of whole shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon conversion (and deliver payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares as set out in Section 7(e) (if any)). Such delivery of shares of Class A Common Stock shall be made, at the option of the Company, in certificated form or by book-entry. Any such certificate or certificates shall be delivered by the Company to the appropriate Holder on a book-entry basis or by mailing certificates evidencing the shares to the Holders at their respective addresses as set forth in the Conversion Notice. In the event that a Holder shall not by written notice designate the name in which shares of Class A Common Stock (and payments of cash in lieu of fractional shares (if any)) and, to the extent applicable, cash, securities or other property to be delivered upon conversion of shares of Class A Preferred Stock should be registered or paid, or the manner in which such shares and cash, securities or other property should be delivered, the Company shall be entitled to register and deliver such shares, securities and other property, and make such payment, in the name of the Holder and in the manner shown on the records of the Company.

(d) No Adjustment. No adjustment to shares of Class A Preferred Stock being converted on a Conversion Date or to the shares of Class A Common Stock deliverable to the Holders upon the conversion thereof shall be made in respect of dividends or other distributions payable to holders of the Class A Common Stock as of any date prior to the close of business on such Conversion Date. Until the Conversion Date with respect to any share of Class A Preferred Stock has occurred, such share of Class A Preferred Stock will remain outstanding and will be entitled to all of the powers, designations, preferences and other rights provided herein.

(e) Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Class A Common Stock will be delivered to the Holders upon conversion. In lieu of fractional shares otherwise issuable, the Holders will be entitled to receive, at the Company’s sole discretion, either (i) an amount in cash equal to the fraction of a share of Class A Common Stock multiplied by the Closing Price of the Class A Common Stock on the Trading Day immediately preceding the applicable Conversion Date or (ii) one (1) additional whole share of Class A Common Stock.

(f) Limitations on Conversion Right.

(i) NASDAQ Rule 5635.

(A) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Certificate of Designations, unless and until the Requisite Stockholder Approval is obtained, no shares of Class A Common Stock will be issued or delivered upon any proposed conversion of any Class A Preferred Stock of any Holder, and no Class A Preferred Stock of any Holder will be convertible, in each case, to the extent, and only to the extent, that (x) such issuance, delivery, or conversion would result in the aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable or deliverable upon conversion of any Class A Preferred Stock together with any shares of Common Stock held by the Holder on the date of such issuance, delivery or conversion (subject to proportionate adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits or stock combinations with respect to the Common Stock) being in excess of nineteen point nine percent (19.9%) of the shares of Class A Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the date of such issuance, delivery or conversion (subject to

proportionate adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits or stock combinations with respect to the Common Stock) and (y) the resulting aggregate number of shares of Class A Common Stock issuable or deliverable upon such conversion of any Class A Preferred Stock together with any shares of Common Stock held by the Holder on the date of such issuance, delivery or conversion (subject to proportionate adjustment for stock dividends, stock splits or stock combinations with respect to the Common Stock) is the largest ownership position of any stockholder of the Company as of such date (the restriction set forth in this sentence, the “Issuance Limitation”). For these purposes, beneficial ownership and calculations of percentage ownership will be determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act. The Company is not required to obtain, or to try to obtain, the Requisite Stockholder Approval.

(B) Any purported conversion (and delivery of shares of Class A Common Stock upon conversion of the Class A Preferred Stock) will be void and have no effect to the extent, but only to the extent, that such conversion and delivery would result in the issuance of Class A Common Stock in excess of the Issuance Limitation. For the avoidance of doubt, a Holder may effect an Optional Conversion of a portion of such Holder’s convertible Preferred Stock up to the Issuance Limitation, in each case subject to the other requirements of this Certificate of Designations applicable to such Optional Conversion.

(C) Except as otherwise provided herein, if any consideration otherwise due upon the proposed conversion of any Class A Preferred Stock pursuant to an Optional Conversion is not delivered as a result of the Issuance Limitation, then the Company’s obligation to deliver such consideration will not be extinguished, and the Company will deliver such consideration (and the relevant shares of Class A Preferred Stock shall be deemed converted) as soon as reasonably practicable and in a manner that does not contravene NASDAQ Rule 5635 without the receipt of the Requisite Stockholder Approval. For the avoidance of doubt, until consideration due upon the conversion of any Class A Preferred Stock is delivered, such Class A Preferred Stock shall be deemed not to have converted, Preferred Dividends shall continue to accrue thereon and consideration ultimately paid out in respect thereof shall take into account such accrued Preferred Dividends (to the extent not previously paid as Cash Dividends).

(ii) Beneficial Ownership.

(A) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Certificate of Designations, no Holder shall have the right to effect the conversion of any shares of Class A Preferred Stock held by such Holder, and any such conversion shall be null and void and treated as if never made, to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, such Holder, together with the other Attribution Parties collectively would beneficially own in excess of 9.9% (the “Maximum Percentage”) of the number of Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such Holder and its Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the shares of Series A Preferred Stock with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which are issuable upon (i) conversion of the remaining, unconverted shares of Series A Preferred Stock beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted portion of any other securities of the Company subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous

to the limitation contained herein (including, without limitation, the Class A Preferred Stock) beneficially owned by such Holder or any of its Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 7(f)(ii), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act. Upon written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to such Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding.

(B) Upon delivery of a written notice to the Company, a Holder may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage as it pertains to such Holder to any other percentage as specified in such notice; provided that any such increase in the Maximum Percentage will not be effective until the sixty-first (61^st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company.

SECTION 8. Optional Redemption by the Company.

(a) Any shares of Class A Preferred Stock may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control), at any time upon not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice (a “Redemption Notice”), at the Redemption Price, payable in cash out of funds legally available therefor; provided, however, that such redemption will be subject in all cases to the conversion rights of the Investor set forth in Section 6 (e.g., any conversion permitted hereunder may be effected in accordance with Section 7(a) as long as the Conversion Date is prior to the Redemption Date).

(b) A Redemption Notice shall be given to the Holders of record of the shares of Class A Preferred Stock to be redeemed at their respective last addresses appearing on the books of the Company. Each Redemption Notice shall state: (i) the Redemption Date; (ii) the number of shares of the Class A Preferred Stock to be redeemed from such Holder; (iii) the aggregate Redemption Price; and (iv) the place or places where certificates of such shares are to be surrendered for payment of the aggregate Redemption Price.

(c) In case of any partial redemption of Class A Preferred Stock, the shares to be redeemed pursuant to this Section 8 shall be selected pro rata from all Holders. Subject to the provisions hereof, the Company shall have full power and authority to prescribe the terms and conditions upon which shares of Class A Preferred Stock shall be redeemed from time to time; provided, however, that in no event shall any Holder, in connection with any such redemption, be required to execute or agree to any restrictive covenants, make any representations or warranties, provide any releases or indemnities or agree to any liabilities or obligations. If fewer than all the shares represented by any certificate are redeemed, a new certificate shall be issued representing the unredeemed shares to the Holder thereof.

(d) Unless the Company (or its successor or the acquiring or surviving Person in a Change of Control) defaults in paying the Redemption Price with respect to any share of Class A Preferred Stock called for redemption on the applicable Redemption Date, on and after the Redemption Date, notwithstanding that any certificate of any share called for redemption has not been surrendered for cancellation, (i) Accrued Dividends shall cease to accrue on such shares of Class A Preferred Stock; (ii) all such shares of Class A Preferred Stock shall no longer be deemed outstanding; and (iii) all rights with respect to such shares of Class A Preferred Stock shall on such Redemption Date cease and terminate.

SECTION 9. Anti-Dilution Adjustments.

(a) Adjustments. The Conversion Rate will be subject to adjustment, without duplication, upon the occurrence of the following events, except that the Company shall not make any adjustment to the Conversion Rate if Holders of the Class A Preferred Stock participate, at the same time and upon the same terms as holders of Class A Common Stock and solely as a result of holding shares of Class A Preferred Stock, in any transaction described in this Section 9, without having to convert their Class A Preferred Stock, as if they held a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate multiplied by the number of shares of Class A Preferred Stock held by such Holders:

(i) The issuance of Common Stock as a dividend or distribution to all or substantially all holders of Class A Common Stock, or a subdivision or combination (including, without limitation, a stock split or a reverse stock split) of Class A Common Stock or a reclassification of Class A Common Stock into a greater or lesser number of shares of Class A Common Stock, in which event the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ x (OS₁ / OS₀)

where,

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on (i) the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution or (ii) the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification;

CR₁ = the new Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on (i) the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution or (ii) the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification;

OS₀ = (i) the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution or (ii) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification; and

OS₁ = (i) the number of shares of Common Stock that would be outstanding immediately after, and solely as a result of, the completion of such dividend or distribution or (ii) the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding immediately after, and solely as a result of, the completion of such subdivision, combination or reclassification.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause shall be effective immediately after the close of business on (i) the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution or (ii) the effective date of such subdivision, combination or reclassification. If any such dividend,

distribution, subdivision, combination or reclassification is announced or declared but does not occur, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board announces that such dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination or reclassification shall not occur to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution, subdivision, combination or reclassification had not been declared.

(ii) The dividend, distribution or other issuance to all or substantially all holders of Class A Common Stock of any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, including evidences of indebtedness, shares or other securities directly or indirectly convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock, or other rights (other than rights, options or warrants distributed in connection with a stockholder rights plan (in which event the provisions of Section 9(a)(v) shall apply)), options or warrants entitling them to subscribe for or purchase shares of Common Stock or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock for a period expiring sixty (60) days or less from the date of issuance thereof, for no consideration or at a price per share that is less than the Current Market Price as of the date such dividend, distribution or other issuance is publicly announced (the “Public Announcement Date”) for such issuance, in which event the Conversion Rate will be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ x [(OS₀+X) / (OS₀+Y)]

where,

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close open of business on the Public Announcement Date for such dividend, distribution or other issuance;

CR₁ = the new Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Public Announcement Date for such dividend, distribution or other issuance;

OS₀ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the open of business on the Public Announcement Date for such dividend, distribution or other issuance;

X = the total number of shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights, options or warrants; and

Y = the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the aggregate price payable to exercise such convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights, options or warrants divided by the Current Market Price as of the Public Announcement Date for such dividend, distribution or other issuance.

For purposes of this clause (ii), in determining whether any convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights, options or warrants entitle the holders thereof to purchase the Common Stock at a price per share that is less than the Current Market Price as of the Public Announcement Date for such dividend, distribution or issuance, there shall be taken into account any consideration the Company receives for such convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights, options or warrants, and any amount payable on exercise thereof, with the value of such consideration, if other than cash, to be the Fair Market Value thereof.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (ii) shall become effective immediately following the close of business on the Public Announcement Date for such dividend, distribution or other issuance. In the event that such convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights, options or warrants are not so issued, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board publicly announces its decision not to issue such convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights, options or warrants to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend, distribution or issuance had not been declared. To the extent that such convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights, options or warrants are not exercised prior to their expiration or shares of Common Stock are otherwise not delivered pursuant to such convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights, options or warrants upon the exercise of such convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights, options or warrants, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the dividend, distribution or other issuance of such convertible or exchangeable securities or other rights, options or warrants been made on the basis of the delivery of only the number of shares of Common Stock actually delivered.

(iii) The Company shall, by dividend or otherwise, distribute to all or substantially all holders of its Class A Common Stock (other than for cash in lieu of fractional shares (if any)), shares of any class of its Capital Stock, evidences of its indebtedness, assets, other property or securities, but excluding (A) dividends or distributions referred to in Section 9(a)(i) or Section 9(a)(ii) hereof; (B) Distribution Transactions as to which Section 9(a)(iv) shall apply; (C) dividends or distributions paid exclusively in cash as to which Section 9(a)(vi) shall apply; and (D) rights, options or warrants distributed in connection with a stockholder rights plan as to which Section 9(a)(v) shall apply (any of such shares of its Capital Stock, indebtedness, assets or property that are not so excluded are hereinafter called the “Distributed Property”), then, in each such case the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ x [SP₀ / (SP₀—FMV)]

where,

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

CR₁ = the new Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

SP₀ = the Current Market Price as of the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and

FMV = the Fair Market Value of the portion of Distributed Property distributed with respect to each outstanding share of Class A Common Stock on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; provided, however, that, if FMV is equal to or greater than SP₀, then in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, the Company shall distribute to each Holder on the date the applicable Distributed Property is distributed to holders of Class A Common Stock, but without requiring such holder to convert its shares of Class A Preferred Stock, in respect of each share

of Class A Preferred Stock held by such holder, the amount of Distributed Property such holder would have received had such holder owned a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution

Any adjustment made pursuant to this clause (iii) shall be effective immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution. If any such dividend or distribution is declared but does not occur, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted, effective as of the date the Board announces that such dividend or distribution shall not occur to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared.

(iv) The Company effects a Distribution Transaction, in which case the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the effective date of the Distribution Transaction shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ x [(FMV + MP₀) / MP₀]

where,

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the end of the Valuation Period;

CR₁ = the new Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the end of the Valuation Period;

FMV = the arithmetic average of the volume-weighted average prices for a share of the Capital Stock or other interest distributed to holders of Common Stock on the principal United States securities exchange or automated quotation system on which such Capital Stock or other interest trades, as reported by Bloomberg (or, if Bloomberg ceases to publish such price, any successor service chosen by the Company) in respect of the period from the open of trading on the relevant Trading Day until the close of trading on such Trading Day (or if such volume-weighted average price is unavailable, the market price of one (1) share of such Capital Stock or other interest on such Trading Day determined, using a volume-weighted average method, by an Independent Financial Advisor retained for such purpose by the Company), for each of the ten (10) consecutive full Trading Days commencing with, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of the Distribution Transaction (the “Valuation Period”); and

MP₀ = the arithmetic average of the VWAP per share of Common Stock over the Valuation Period

Such adjustment shall become effective immediately following the close of business on the last Trading Day of the Valuation Period; provided, however, that if the relevant Conversion Date occurs during the Valuation Period, references to “ten (10)” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Ex-Dividend Date of such Distribution Transaction to, and including, the

Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate. If any dividend or distribution that constitutes a Distribution Transaction is declared but not paid or made, the Conversion Rate shall be immediately decreased, effective as of the date the Board determines not to pay or make such dividend or distribution, to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such dividend or distribution had not been declared or announced. If an adjustment to the Conversion Rate is required under this Section 9(a)(iv), delivery of any additional shares of Common Stock that may be deliverable upon conversion as a result of an adjustment required under this Section 9(a)(iv) shall be delayed only to the extent necessary in order to complete the calculations provided for in this Section 9(a)(iv).

(v) If the Company has a stockholder rights plan in effect with respect to the Common Stock on any Conversion Date, upon conversion of any shares of the Class A Preferred Stock, Holders of such shares will receive, in addition to the applicable number of shares of Common Stock, the rights under such rights plan relating to such Common Stock, unless, prior to such Conversion Date, the rights have (A) become exercisable or (B) separated from the shares of Common Stock (the first of such events to occur, a “Trigger Event”), in which case, the Conversion Rate will be adjusted, effective automatically at the time of such Trigger Event, as if the Company had made a distribution of such rights to all or substantially all holders of the Class A Common Stock as described in Section 9(a)(ii) (without giving effect to the sixty (60)-day limit on the exercisability of rights, options or warrants ordinarily subject to such Section 9(a)(ii)), subject to appropriate readjustment in the event of the expiration, termination or redemption of such rights prior to the exercise, deemed exercise or exchange thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any such stockholder rights are exchanged by the Company for shares of Common Stock or other property or securities, the Conversion Rate shall be appropriately readjusted as if such stockholder rights had not been issued, but the Company had instead issued such shares of Common Stock or other property or securities as a dividend or distribution of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Section 9(a)(i) or Section 9(a)(iii), as applicable.

To the extent that such rights are not exercised prior to their expiration, termination or redemption, the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect had the adjustments made upon the occurrence of the Trigger Event been made on the basis of the issuance of, and the receipt of the exercise price with respect to, only the number of shares of Common Stock actually issued pursuant to such rights.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 9(a)(v), no adjustment shall be required to be made to the Conversion Rate with respect to any Holder which is, or is an “affiliate” or “associate” of, an “acquiring person” under such stockholder rights plan or with respect to any direct or indirect transferee of such Holder who receives Class A Preferred Stock in such transfer after the time such Holder becomes, or its affiliate or associate becomes, such an “acquiring person.”

(vi) If any cash dividend or distribution is made to all or substantially all holders of the Class A Common Stock, the Conversion Rate shall be adjusted based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ x [SP₀ / (SP₀ - C)]

where,

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

CR₁ = the new Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the open of business on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution;

SP₀ = the Current Market Price as of the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution; and

C = the amount in cash per share of Common Stock the Company distributes to all or substantially all holders of the Class A Common Stock; provided, however, that, if C is equal to or greater than SP₀, then in lieu of the foregoing adjustment, the Company shall distribute to each Holder on the date the applicable cash dividend or distribution is made to holders of Class A Common Stock, but without requiring such Holder to convert its shares of Class A Preferred Stock, in respect of each share of Class A Preferred Stock held by such Holder, the amount of cash such Holder would have received had such Holder owned a number of shares of Class A Common Stock equal to the Conversion Rate on the Ex-Dividend Date for such dividend or distribution

(vii) If the Company or any of its Subsidiaries make a payment in respect of a tender or exchange offer for the Common Stock (other than an exchange offer that constitutes a Distribution Transaction subject to Section 9(a)(vi)), or otherwise acquires Common Stock, if the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per share of Common Stock validly tendered, exchanged or otherwise acquired exceeds the arithmetic average of the VWAP per share of Common Stock over the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the last day on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such tender or exchange offer (as it may be amended) (such date, the “Expiration Date”), then the Conversion Rate shall be increased based on the following formula:

CR₁ = CR₀ x [FMV + (SP₁ * OS₁)] / (SP₁ * OS₀)

where,

CR₀ = the Conversion Rate in effect immediately prior to the close of business on the Expiration Date;

CR₁ = the new Conversion Rate in effect immediately after the close of business on the Expiration Date;

FMV = the aggregate value of all cash and Fair Market Value on the Expiration Date of all other consideration paid or payable for shares of Common Stock purchased in such tender or exchange offer;

OS₀ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the date such tender or exchange offer expires (prior to giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);

OS₁ = the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the date such tender or exchange offer expires (after giving effect to the purchase of all shares of Common Stock accepted for purchase or exchange in such tender or exchange offer);

SP₁ = the arithmetic average of the VWAP per share of Class A Common Stock for each of the ten (10) consecutive Trading Day period commencing on, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date

Such adjustment shall become effective immediately following the close of business on the Expiration Date; provided, however, that if the relevant Conversion Date occurs during the 10 Trading Days immediately following, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date, references to “ten (10)” in the preceding paragraph shall be deemed to be replaced with such lesser number of Trading Days as have elapsed from, and including, the Trading Day next succeeding the Expiration Date to, and including, the Conversion Date in determining the Conversion Rate. If the Company is obligated to purchase shares of Common Stock pursuant to any such tender or exchange offer described in Section 9(a)(vii) but is permanently prevented by applicable law from effecting any such purchase, or all such purchases are rescinded, then the Conversion Rate shall be readjusted to be the Conversion Rate that would then be in effect if such tender or exchange offer had not been made or had been made only in respect of the purchases that have actually been made. If an adjustment to the Conversion Rate is required under this Section 9(a)(vii), delivery of any additional shares of Common Stock that may be deliverable upon conversion as a result of an adjustment required under this Section 9(a)(vii) shall be delayed only to the extent necessary in order to complete the calculations provided for in this Section 9(a)(vii).

(b) Calculation of Adjustments. All adjustments to the Conversion Rate shall be calculated by the Company to the nearest 1/10,000th of one (1) share of Common Stock (or if there is not a nearest 1/10,000th of a share, to the next lower 1/10,000th of a share). No adjustment to the Conversion Rate will be required, unless such adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least one percent (1%) of the Conversion Rate; provided, however, that any such adjustment that is not required to be made will be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment; provided, further, that any such adjustment of less than one percent (1%) that has not been made will be made upon any Conversion Date.

(i) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9, the Conversion Rate will not be adjusted for the issuance of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Stock or carrying the right to purchase any of the foregoing, or for the repurchase of Common Stock.

(ii) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9, the Conversion Rate will not be adjusted as a result of the issuance of, the distribution of separate certificates representing, the exercise or redemption of, or the termination or invalidation of, rights pursuant to any stockholder rights plans.

(iii) No adjustment to the Conversion Rate will be made:

(A) upon the issuance of any Earn Out Shares (as defined in that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated December 13, 2021, by and between Gores Holdings VIII, Inc., Frontier Merger Sub, Inc., Frontier Merger Sub II, LLC, and Footprint International Holdco, Inc.);

(B) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any present or future plan providing for the reinvestment of dividends or interest payable on securities of the Company and the investment of additional optional amounts in Common Stock under any plan in which purchases are made at market prices on the date or dates of purchase, without discount, and whether or not the Company bears the ordinary costs of administration and operation of the plan, including brokerage commissions;

(C) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock, restricted shares or options or rights to purchase such shares pursuant to any present or future employee, director or consultant benefit plan or program of or assumed by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or of any employee agreements or arrangements or programs;

(D) upon the issuance of any shares of Common Stock pursuant to any option, warrant, right, or exercisable, exchangeable or convertible security;

(E) for dividends or distributions declared or paid to holders of Common Stock in which Holders participate pursuant to Section 4(b); or

(F) for a change solely in the par value of the Common Stock.

(d) Successive Adjustments. After an adjustment to the Conversion Rate under this Section 9, any subsequent event requiring an adjustment under this Section 9 shall cause an adjustment to each such Conversion Rate as so adjusted.

(e) Multiple Adjustments. For the avoidance of doubt, if an event occurs that would trigger an adjustment to the Conversion Rate pursuant to this Section 9 under more than one subsection hereof, such event, to the extent fully taken into account in a single adjustment, shall not result in multiple adjustments hereunder; provided, however, that if more than one subsection of this Section 9 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment.

(f) Tax Adjustments. The Company may, but shall not be required to, make such increases in the Conversion Rate, in addition to those required by this Section 9, as the Board considers to be advisable in order to avoid or diminish any income tax to any holders of shares of Common Stock resulting from any dividend or distribution of stock or issuance of rights or warrants to purchase or subscribe for stock or from any event treated as such for income tax purposes or for any other reason.

(g) Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Conversion Rate is adjusted as provided under this Section 9, the Company shall as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of an event that requires such adjustment (or if the Company is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming so aware) or the date the Company makes an adjustment pursuant to Section 9(f):

(i) compute the adjusted applicable Conversion Rate in accordance with this Section 9; and

(ii) (A) in the event that the Company shall give notice or make a public announcement to the holders of Common Stock of any action of the type described in Section 9 (but only if the action of the type described in Section 9 would result in an adjustment to the Conversion Price or a change in the type of securities or property to be delivered upon conversion of the Class A Preferred Stock), the Company shall, at the time of such notice or announcement, and in the case of any action that would require the fixing of a Record Date, at least ten (10) days prior to such Record Date, give notice to each Holder by mail, first-class postage prepaid, at the address appearing in the Register, which notice shall specify the Record Date, if any, with respect to any such action, the approximate date on which such action is to take place and the facts with respect to such action as shall be reasonably necessary to indicate the effect on the Conversion Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property, which shall be deliverable upon conversion or redemption of the Class A Preferred Stock or (B) in the event that the Company does not give notice or make a public announcement as set forth in subclause (A) of this clause (ii), the Company shall, as soon as practicable following the occurrence of an event that requires an adjustment to the Conversion Price pursuant to one or more provisions of Section 9 (or if the Company is not aware of such occurrence, as soon as practicable after becoming so aware), provide, or cause to be provided, a written notice to the Holders of the occurrence of such event, in the same manner and with the same detail as the notice set forth in subclause (A) of this clause (ii); and

(iii) whenever the Conversion Price shall be adjusted pursuant to one or more provisions of Section 9, the Company shall, as soon as practicable following the determination of the revised Conversion Price, (A) file at the principal office of the Company, a statement showing in reasonable detail the facts requiring such adjustment, the Conversion Price that shall be in effect after such adjustment and the method by which the adjustment to the Conversion Price was determined and (B) cause a copy of such statement to be sent in the manner set forth in subclause (A) of clause (ii) to each Holder.

SECTION 10. Adjustment for Reorganization Events.

(a) Reorganization Events. In the event of:

(i) any reclassification, statutory exchange, merger, consolidation or other similar business combination of the Company with or into another Person, in each case, pursuant to which at least a majority of the Common Stock is changed or converted into, or exchanged for, cash, securities or other property of the Company or another Person;

(ii) any sale, transfer, lease or conveyance to another Person of all or substantially all the property and assets of the Company, in each case pursuant to which the Common Stock is converted into cash, securities or other property; or

(iii) any statutory exchange of securities of the Company with another Person (other than in connection with a merger or acquisition) or reclassification, recapitalization or reorganization of the Common Stock into other securities;

(each of which is referred to as a “Reorganization Event”), each share of Class A Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to such Reorganization Event will, without the consent of the Holders and subject to Section 10(d), remain outstanding but shall become convertible into, out of funds legally available therefor, the number, kind and amount of securities, cash and other property (without regard to Section 7(f)) (such securities, cash and other property, the “Exchange Property”), without any interest on such Exchange Property and without any right to dividends or distribution on such Exchange Property, which have a Record Date that is prior to the applicable Conversion Date, that the Holder of such share of Class A Preferred Stock would have received in such Reorganization Event had such Holder converted its shares of Class A Preferred Stock into the applicable number of shares of Class A Common Stock immediately prior to the effective date of the Reorganization Event using the Conversion Rate applicable immediately prior to the effective date of the Reorganization Event and the Liquidation Preference applicable at the time of such subsequent conversion; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply if such Holder is a Person with which the Company consolidated or into which the Company merged or which merged into the Company or to which such sale or transfer was made, as the case may be (any such Person, a “Constituent Person”), or an Affiliate of a Constituent Person, to the extent such Reorganization Event provides for different treatment of Common Stock held by such Persons. If the kind or amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon such Reorganization Event is not the same for each share of Common Stock held immediately prior to such Reorganization Event by a Person (other than a Constituent Person or an Affiliate thereof), then for the purpose of this Section 10(a), the kind and amount of securities, cash and other property receivable upon conversion following such Reorganization Event will be deemed to be the weighted average of the types and amounts of consideration received by the holders of Common Stock.

(b) Successive Reorganization Events. The above provisions of this Section 10 shall similarly apply to successive Reorganization Events.

(c) Reorganization Event Notice. The Company (or any successor) shall, no less than twenty (20) Business Days prior to the anticipated effective date of any Reorganization Event, provide written notice to the Holders of such occurrence of such event and of the kind and amount of the cash, securities or other property that constitutes the Exchange Property. Failure to deliver such notice shall not affect the operation of this Section 10.

(d) Reorganization Event Agreements. The Company shall not enter into any agreement for a transaction constituting a Reorganization Event, unless (i) such agreement provides for or does not interfere with or prevent (as applicable) conversion of the Class A Preferred Stock into the Exchange Property in a manner that is consistent with and gives effect to this Section 10, and (ii) to the extent that the Company is not the surviving corporation in such Reorganization Event or will be dissolved in connection with such Reorganization Event, proper provision shall be made in the agreements governing such Reorganization Event for the conversion of the Class A Preferred Stock into stock of the Person surviving such Reorganization Event or such other continuing entity in such Reorganization Event.

SECTION 11. Voting Rights.

(a) General. Except as set forth in Section 11(c), the shares of Class A Preferred Stock shall be non-voting, and the Holders shall have no voting rights in respect of the shares of Class A Preferred Stock held thereby, except as otherwise required by applicable law.

(b) Adverse Changes. So long as (i) with respect to Section 11(b)(i) and 11(b)(ii), any shares of Class A Preferred Stock are outstanding and (ii) with respect to Section 11(b)(iii) and 11(b)(iv), shares of Class A Preferred Stock with an aggregate Liquidation Preference equal to or greater than $25,000,000 are outstanding, in addition to any other vote required by applicable law, the Company may not take any of the following actions (including by means of merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) without the prior affirmative vote or written consent from the Holders of at least a majority of the then-issued and outstanding shares of Class A Preferred Stock, voting as a separate class:

(i) amend, alter or repeal any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation (including this Certificate of Designations) that would adversely affect the relative rights, preferences or privileges of the Class A Preferred Stock;

(ii) authorize, create, increase the authorized amount of, or issue any class or series of Senior Stock, Parity Stock or Class A Preferred Stock, or any security convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for any of the foregoing, or reclassify any security into, any Senior Stock, Parity Stock or Class A Preferred Stock (provided, however, that the authorization, creation, increase in the authorized amount of, or issuance of any class or series of Junior Stock or any security convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for Junior Stock (as long as such convertible, exchangeable or exercisable security is not Senior Stock, Parity Stock or Class A Preferred Stock), or reclassification of any security into, Junior Stock will not require the vote or consent of any Holders);

(iii) incur or guarantee any third-party debt security or similar instrument or incur or guarantee third-party indebtedness for borrowed money, in each case other than (A) any indebtedness under the financing programs involving any financing or credit support being provided by Macquarie Bank Limited and/or any of its Affiliates (“MQ”) pursuant to that certain

Credit Agreement, dated as of August 31, 2022, by and between MQ, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors party thereto, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $1,000,000,000 at any one time (the “Financing Programs”), (B) any indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to the Financing Programs, (C) indebtedness that may be deemed to exist pursuant to any letter of credit, performance bond, surety, statutory appeal or similar obligation entered into or incurred in the ordinary course of business in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $5,000,000 at any one time, and (D) any other indebtedness with an aggregate committed and/or principal amount outstanding less than $75,000,000 at any one time (in each case of clauses (A) through (C), together with extensions, refinancings, modifications, amendments and restatements of each of the foregoing, so long as the principal and/or committed amount thereof is not increased); or

(iv) (A) grant any liens on the Company’s intellectual property to any lender (other than any liens securing indebtedness permitted pursuant to clause (iii)(A) immediately above), or (B) transfer the Company’s intellectual property to an entity not wholly beneficially owned by the Company.

(c) Each Holder of Class A Preferred Stock will have one (1) vote per share on any matter on which Holders of Class A Preferred Stock are entitled to vote separately as a class, whether at a meeting or by written consent.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any amendment, alteration or repeal of any provision of the Certificate of Incorporation (including this Certificate of Designations) that would disproportionately adversely affect the relative rights, preferences or privileges of any Holder as compared to the other Holders shall require the prior written consent of such disproportionately adversely affected Holder.

SECTION 12. Transfer Agent. The Company may appoint a transfer agent and remove its transfer agent in accordance with the agreement between the Company and such transfer agent; provided, however, that the Company shall appoint a successor transfer agent of recognized standing who shall accept such appointment prior to the effectiveness of such removal. Upon any such removal or appointment, the Company shall send notice thereof by first-class mail, postage prepaid, to the Holders. When a Holder requests to register the transfer of shares of Class A Preferred Stock, the Company or the Company’s transfer agent, as applicable, shall register the transfer as requested if its reasonable requirements for such transaction are met.

SECTION 13. Status of Shares. Shares of Class A Preferred Stock that have been issued and reacquired in any manner, whether by redemption, repurchase or otherwise or upon any conversion of shares of Class A Preferred Stock to Common Stock, shall thereupon be retired and shall have the status of authorized and unissued shares of Preferred Stock undesignated as to series, and may be redesignated as any series of Preferred Stock and reissued (subject to the terms and conditions of this Certificate of Designations, including Section 2 and Section 11(b)).

SECTION 14. Term. Except as expressly provided in this Certificate of Designations, the shares of Class A Preferred Stock shall not be redeemable or otherwise mature and the term of the Class A Preferred Stock shall be perpetual.

SECTION 15. Creation of Capital Stock. Subject to Section 11(b), the Board, without the vote of the Holders, may authorize and issue additional shares of Capital Stock of the Company.

SECTION 16. No Sinking Fund. Shares of Class A Preferred Stock shall not be subject to or entitled to the operation of a retirement or sinking fund.

SECTION 17. Taxes.

(a) Transfer Taxes. The Company shall pay any and all stock transfer, documentary, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable in respect of any issuance or delivery of shares of Class A Preferred Stock or shares of Common Stock or other securities issued on account of Class A Preferred Stock pursuant hereto or certificates representing such shares or securities. The Company shall not, however, be required to pay any such tax that may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issuance or delivery of shares of Class A Preferred Stock, shares of Common Stock or other securities in a name other than the name in which the shares of Class A Preferred Stock with respect to which such shares or other securities are issued or delivered were registered, or in respect of any payment to any Person other than a payment to the registered holder thereof, and shall not be required to make any such issuance, delivery or payment, unless and until the Person otherwise entitled to such issuance, delivery or payment has paid to the Company the amount of any such tax or has established, to the satisfaction of the Company, that such tax has been paid or is not payable.

(b) Withholding. All payments and distributions (or deemed distributions) on the shares of Class A Preferred Stock (and on the shares of Common Stock received upon their conversion) shall be subject to withholding and backup withholding of taxes to the extent required by law, subject to applicable exemptions, and amounts withheld, if any, shall be treated as received by the Holders. The Company shall have the right to take such measures as are reasonably

necessary to obtain cash to satisfy the Company’s withholding requirements with respect to any non-cash, deemed or constructive payment, including by retaining, selling or liquidating property (including, for the avoidance of doubt, shares of Capital Stock of the Company) of the applicable Holder held by the Company in its custody or over which it has control, and each Holder of the Class A Preferred Stock shall indemnify the Company and its Affiliates for, and hold harmless the Company and its Affiliates from and against, any and all withholding tax, including penalties and interest, payable by or assessed against the Company or any of its Affiliates in respect of any actual or constructive payments to such Holder in respect of the Class A Preferred Stock held by such Holder.

SECTION 18. Notices. All notices referred to herein shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specified herein, all notices hereunder shall be deemed to have been given upon the earlier of receipt thereof or three (3) Business Days after the mailing thereof if sent by registered or certified mail (unless first-class mail shall be specifically permitted for such notice under the terms of this Certificate of Designations) with postage prepaid, addressed: (a) if to the Company, to its office at 000 X Xxxxxxx Xx Xxxxxxx, XX, 00000-0000 (Attention: General Counsel), or to any transfer or other agent of the Company designated to receive such notice as permitted by this Certificate of Designations; (b) if to any Holder, to such Holder at the address of such Holder as listed in the Register; or (c) to such other address as the Company or any such Holder, as the case may be, shall have designated by notice similarly given.

SECTION 19. Facts Ascertainable. When the terms of this Certificate of Designations refer to a specific agreement or other document to determine the meaning or operation of a provision hereof, the Secretary of the Company shall maintain a copy of such agreement or document at the principal executive offices of the Company and a copy thereof shall be provided free of charge to any Holder who makes a request therefor. The Secretary of the Company shall also maintain a written record of the Issuance Date, the number of shares of Class A Preferred Stock issued to a Holder and the date of each such issuance, and shall furnish such written record free of charge to any Holder who makes a request therefor.

SECTION 20. Waiver. Notwithstanding any provision in this Certificate of Designations to the contrary, any provision contained herein and any right of the Holders of Class A Preferred Stock granted hereunder may be waived as to all shares of Class A Preferred Stock (and the Holders thereof) upon the written consent of the Holders of a majority of the shares of Class A Preferred Stock then outstanding.

SECTION 21. Severability. If any term of the Class A Preferred Stock set forth herein is invalid, unlawful or incapable of being enforced by reason of any rule of law or public policy, all other terms set forth herein, which can be given effect without the invalid, unlawful or unenforceable term will, nevertheless, remain in full force and effect, and no term herein set forth will be deemed dependent upon any other such term, unless so expressed herein.

SECTION 22. No Other Rights. Except as expressly provided in any agreement between a Holder and the Company, the Class A Preferred Stock will have no rights, preferences or voting powers, except as provided in this Certificate of Designations or the Certificate of Incorporation or as provided by applicable law.

provided that the Company shall not be obligated to provide such access or materials if the Company determines, in its reasonable judgement, that doing so would (i) violate or prejudice the rights of its and its Subsidiaries’ customers, (ii) result in the disclosure of trade secrets or competitively sensitive information to third parties, (iii) violate applicable Law, an applicable Judgement or a contract or obligation of confidentiality owing to a third party, (iv) jeopardize the protection of an attorney-client privilege, attorney work product protection or other legal privilege (provided, however, that the Company shall use reasonable efforts to provide alternative, redacted or substitute documents or information in a manner that would not result in the loss of the ability to assert attorney-client privilege, attorney work-product protection or other legal privileges), (v) be adverse to the interests of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries in any pending or threatened Action or (vi) expose the Company or its Subsidiaries to risk of liability for disclosure of sensitive or personal information; provided that the parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to disclose such information in a manner that would not violate the foregoing.

(a) The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur for which money damages would not suffice in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at Law. It is accordingly agreed that the non-breaching party

shall be entitled to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof, or in the event (but only in the event) that such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such action or proceeding, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware or another court sitting in the state of Delaware. The foregoing is in addition to any other remedy to which any party is entitled at Law, in equity or otherwise.

Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such action or proceeding for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action in connection with or relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding in connection with or with respect to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with this Section 6.6, (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgement, attachment in aid of execution of judgement, execution of judgement or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Law, any claim that (A) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

(c) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably consents to the service of any summons and complaint and any other process in any other action in connection with or relating to this Agreement, on behalf of itself or its property, by the personal delivery of copies of such process to such party or by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the party to be served at the address and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in Section 6.4.

Each party (a) certifies and acknowledges that no representative, agent or attorney of any other party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver, and (b) acknowledges that it understands and has considered the implications of this waiver and makes this waiver voluntarily, and that it and the other parties have been induced to enter into the Agreement by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Section 6.7.

Section 6.8 Headings. The descriptive headings of the several sections in this Agreement are for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to limit or affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Section 6.9 Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached to any such documents constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the Company and the Investor with respect to the matters referred to herein and supersede all prior agreements, understandings or representations, in each case among the parties, with respect to such matters.

Section 6.10 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement or any application thereof shall be declared or held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, whether generally or in any particular jurisdiction, such provision shall be deemed amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to cure such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions, both generally and in every other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 6.11 Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

The Registration Statement filed with the Commission pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 shall be on Form S-3 or, if Form S-3 is not then available to the Company, on Form S-1 or such other form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of such Registrable Securities, covering such Registrable Securities, and shall contain a Prospectus in such form as to permit any Holder to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor or similar provision adopted by the Commission then in effect) beginning on the effective date for such Registration Statement. A Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 shall provide for the resale pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, the Holders. The Company shall use its best efforts to cause a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available (including to use its best efforts to add Registrable Securities held by Permitted Transferees), for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities. As soon as practicable following the effective date of a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1, but in any event within one (1) business day of such date, the Company shall notify the Holders of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. When effective, a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) will comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and will not contain an untrue statement

of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any Prospectus contained in such Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which such statement is made).

2.1.2 If the Company files a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (a “Form S-3 Shelf”) and thereafter the Company becomes ineligible to use Form S-3 for secondary sales, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a shelf registration on Form S-1 (a “Form S-1 Shelf”) as promptly as practicable to replace the Form S-3 Shelf and to have the Form S-1 Shelf declared effective as promptly as practicable and to cause such Form S-1 Shelf to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities. Upon such date as the Company becomes eligible to use Form S-3 for secondary sales or, in the case of a Form S-1 Shelf filed to register the resale of Removed Shares pursuant to Section 2.6 hereof, upon such date as the Company becomes eligible to register all of the Removed Shares for resale on a Form S-3 Shelf pursuant to the Commission Guidance and, if applicable, without a requirement that any of the Gores-Footprint-222 Holders be named as an “underwriter” therein, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a Form S-3 Shelf as promptly as practicable to replace the applicable Form S-1 Shelf and to have the Form S-3 Shelf declared effective as promptly as practicable and to cause such Form S-3 Shelf to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities thereunder held by the applicable Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities.

2.1.3 At any time and from time to time following the effectiveness of the shelf registration statement required by subsection 2.1.1, any Holder may request to sell all or a portion of their Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering that is registered pursuant to such shelf registration statement, including a Block Trade (a “Shelf Underwritten Offering”), provided that such Holder(s) reasonably expects to sell Registrable Securities yielding aggregate gross proceeds in excess of $15,000,000 from such Shelf Underwritten Offering (the “Minimum Amount”). All requests for a Shelf Underwritten Offering shall be made by giving written notice to the Company (the “Shelf Takedown Notice”). Each Shelf Takedown Notice shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Shelf Underwritten Offering and the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of such Shelf Underwritten Offering. Except with respect to any Registrable Securities distributed by the Sponsor to its members following the expiration of the Founder Shares Lock-up Period or the Private Placement Lock-up Period, as applicable, within three (3) days after receipt of any Shelf Takedown Notice, the Company shall give written notice of such requested Shelf Underwritten Offering to all other Holders of Registrable Securities (the “Company Shelf Takedown Notice”) and, subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2.4, shall include in such Shelf Underwritten Offering all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein, within five (5) business days after sending the Company Shelf Takedown Notice, or, in the case of a Block Trade, as provided in Section 2.5. The Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement in a form as is customary in Underwritten Offerings of securities by the Company with the managing Underwriter or Underwriters selected by the Holders requesting such Shelf Underwritten Offering (which managing Underwriter or Underwriters shall be subject to approval of the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and shall take all such other reasonable actions as are requested by the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In connection with any Shelf Underwritten Offering contemplated by this subsection 2.1.3, subject to Section 3.3 and Article IV, the underwriting agreement into which each Holder and the Company shall enter shall contain such representations, covenants, indemnities and other rights and obligations as are customary in underwritten offerings of securities by the Company. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Gores Holders, on the one hand, and the Footprint Holders, on the other hand, may each demand not more than two (2) Shelf Underwritten Offerings, and the Company shall not be obligated to participate in more than four (4) Shelf Underwritten Offerings, pursuant to this Section 2.1.3 in any 12-month period.

2.2 Demand Registration.

2.2.1 Request for Registration. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2.5 and Sections 2.4 and 3.4 hereof, at any time and from time to time after the date the Closing Date, each of (a) the Gores Holders of at least a majority in interest of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities held by the Gores Holders (the “Gores Demanding Holders”), (b) the Footprint Holders of at least a majority in interest of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities held by the Footprint Holders (the “Footprint Demanding Holders”) and (c) the 222 Holders of at least a majority in interest of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities held by the 222 Holders (the “Preferred Demanding Holders”), may make a written demand for Registration of all or part of their Registrable Securities, on (i) Form S-1 or (ii) if available, Form S-3, which in the case of either clause (i) or (ii), may be a shelf registration statement filed pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, which written demand shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such Registration and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof (such written demand a “Demand Registration”); provided, that the aggregate offering value of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered in any Form S-1 must equal at least twenty five million dollars ($25,000,000) and the aggregate offering value of the Registrable Securities requested to be registered in any Form S-3 must equal at least ten million dollars ($10,000,000). The Company shall, promptly following the Company’s receipt of a Demand Registration, notify, in writing, all other Holders of Registrable Securities (other than a Demand Registration with respect to any Registrable Securities to be distributed by the Sponsor to its members following the expiration of the Founder Shares Lock-up Period or the Private Placement Lock-up Period, as applicable) of such demand, and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Xxxxxx’s Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration (each such Holder that includes all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration, a “Requesting Holder”) shall so notify the Company, in writing, within five (5) days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent a Requesting Holder also separately possesses Demand Registration rights pursuant to this Section 2.2, but is not the Holder who exercises such Demand Registration rights, the exercise by such Requesting Holder of its rights pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall not count as the exercise by it of one of its Demand Registration rights. Upon receipt by the Company of any such written notification from a Requesting Holder(s) to the Company, subject to subsection 2.2.4 below, such Requesting Holder(s) shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement on Form S-1 or Form S-3, as applicable, as soon thereafter as practicable, but not more than forty-five (45) days following the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration, for Registration of all Registrable Securities requested by the Demanding Holders and Requesting Holders pursuant to such Demand Registration.

pursuant to a Demand Registration is subsequently interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission, federal or state court or any other governmental agency the Registration Statement with respect to such Registration shall be deemed not to have been declared effective unless and until (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Demand Registration thereafter affirmatively elect to continue with such Registration and accordingly notify the Company in writing, but in no event later than five (5) days after the removal, rescission or other termination of such stop order or injunction, of such election; provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated or required to file another Registration Statement until the Registration Statement that has been previously filed with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration by the same Demanding Holder becomes effective or is subsequently terminated.

All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.2.3, subject to Section 3.3 and Article IV, shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Company and the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating the Demand Registration, which managing Underwriter or Underwriters shall be subject to approval of the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

2.2.4 Reduction of Underwritten Offering. If a Demand Registration is to be an Underwritten Offering and the managing Underwriter or Underwriters, in good faith, advises the Company, the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) in writing, in its or their opinion, that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell for its own account and the shares of Common Stock, if any, that have been requested to be sold in such Demand Registration pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other stockholders of the Company, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in such Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering: (a) first, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) (pro rata based on the total amount of Registrable Securities held by each such Demanding Holder and Requesting Holder (if any) (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (b) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (a), the shares of Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell for its own account, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (c) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), the shares of Common Stock or other equity securities of other Persons that the Company is obligated to include in such Demand Registration pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such Persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities. For purposes of determining Pro Rata amounts in this Agreement, for any Holder that is a partnership, limited liability company, or corporation, the partners, members, retired partners, retired members, stockholders, and Affiliates of such Holder, or the estates and Immediate Family Members of any such partners, retired partners, members, and retired members and any trusts for the benefit of any of the foregoing Persons, shall be deemed to be a single “Holder,” and any pro rata reduction with respect to such “Holder” shall be based upon the aggregate number of Registrable Securities owned by all Persons included in such “Holder,” as defined in this sentence.

2.2.5 Demand Registration Withdrawal. A Demanding Holder or a Requesting Holder shall have the right to withdraw all or a portion of its Registrable Securities included in a Demand Registration pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 or a Shelf Underwritten Offering pursuant to subsection 2.1.3 for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of its intention to so withdraw at any time prior to (a) in the case of a Demand Registration not involving an Underwritten Offering, the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement, or (b) in the case of any Demand Registration involving an Underwritten Offering or any Shelf Underwritten Offering, prior to the filing of the applicable “red xxxxxxx” prospectus or prospectus supplement used for marketing such Underwritten Offering or Shelf Underwritten Offering; provided, however, that upon withdrawal by a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating a Demand Registration (or in the case of a Shelf Underwritten Offering, withdrawal of an amount of Registrable Securities included by the Holders in such Shelf Underwritten Offering, in their capacity as Demanding Holders, being less than the Minimum Amount), the Company shall cease all efforts to secure effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement or complete the Underwritten Offering, as applicable. If withdrawn, such requested Demand Registration or Shelf Underwritten Offering shall constitute a demand for a Demand Registration or Shelf Underwritten Offering for purposes of Section 2.2.1 unless either (i) the Demanding Holders have not previously withdrawn any Demand Registration or (ii) the Demanding Holders reimburse the Company for all Registration Expenses with respect to such Shelf Underwritten Offering. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration or a Shelf Underwritten Offering prior to and including its withdrawal under this subsection 2.2.5 unless the Demanding Holders elect to pay such Registration Expenses pursuant to clause (ii) of this subsection 2.2.5.

2.3 Piggyback Registration.

2.3.1 Piggyback Rights. If the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into equity securities, for its own account or for the account of stockholders of the Company (or by the Company and by the stockholders of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant to Article II hereof), other than a Registration Statement (or any registered offering with respect thereto) (a) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (b) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing stockholders or pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-4 (or similar form that relates to a transaction subject to Rule 145 under the Securities Act or any successor rule thereto), (c) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company, (d) filed in connection with an “at-the-market” offering or (e) for a dividend reinvestment plan or a rights offering, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities (excluding the Sponsor with respect to the Registrable Securities distributed by the Sponsor to its members following the expiration of the Founder Shares Lock-Up Period or the Private Placement Lock-Up Period, as applicable) as soon as practicable but not less than ten (10) days (or, in the case of a Block Trade, three (3) business days) before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement, which notice shall (i) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution (including whether such registration will be pursuant to a shelf registration statement), and the proposed price and name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (iii) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within five (5) days after receipt of such written notice (or in the case of a Block Trade, within one (1) business day) (such Registration a “Piggyback Registration”). The Company shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities identified in a Holder’s response notice described in the foregoing sentence to be included in such Piggyback Registration and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering, if any, to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders pursuant to this subsection 2.3.1 to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company or Company stockholder(s) for whose account such Registration Statement is to be filed included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities

through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.3.1, subject to Section 3.3 and Article IV, shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Company or the Holders as provided in subsection 2.1.3 or subsection 2.2.3, as applicable. For purposes of this Section 2.3, the filing by the Company of an automatic shelf registration statement for offerings pursuant to Rule 415(a) that omits information with respect to any specific offering pursuant to Rule 430B shall not trigger any notification or participation rights hereunder until such time as the Company amends or supplements such Registration Statement to include information with respect to a specific offering of Securities (and such amendment or supplement shall trigger the notice and participation rights provided for in this Section 2.3).

2.3.2 Reduction of Piggyback Registration. If a Piggyback Registration is to be an Underwritten Offering and the managing Underwriter or Underwriters, in good faith, advises the Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating in the Piggyback Registration in writing, in its or their opinion, that the dollar amount or number of shares of Common Stock that the Company desires to sell, taken together with (a) the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration has been demanded pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with Persons other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder (b) the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof, and (c) the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:

2.3.2.1 if the Registration is undertaken for the Company’s account, the Company shall include in any such Registration (a) first, the Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell for its own account, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (b) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (a), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.3.1 hereof, Pro Rata, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (c) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), the Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and

2.3.2.2 if the Registration is pursuant to a request by Persons other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then the Company shall include in any such Registration (a) first, the shares of Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting Persons, other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (b) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (a), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.3.1 hereof, Pro Rata, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (c) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), the Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell for its own account, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (d) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (a), (b) and (c), the Common Stock or other equity securities for the account of other Persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.3.3 Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any Holder of Registrable Securities (other than a Demanding Holder, whose right to withdraw from a Shelf Underwritten Offering, and related obligations, shall be governed by subsection 2.2.5) shall have the right to withdraw all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw such Registrable Securities from such Piggyback Registration prior to (a) in the case of a Piggyback Registration not involving an Underwritten

Offering or Shelf Underwritten Offering, the effectiveness of the applicable Registration Statement, or (b), in the case of any Piggyback Registration involving an Underwritten Offering or any Shelf Underwritten Offering, prior to the filing of the applicable “red xxxxxxx” prospectus or prospectus supplement used to market such Underwritten Offering or Shelf Underwritten Offering. The Company (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by Persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (other than subsection 2.2.5), the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to and including its withdrawal under this subsection 2.3.3.

2.3.4 Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.2 hereof or a Shelf Underwritten Offering effected under subsection 2.1.3.

2.4 Restrictions on Registration Rights. If (a) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated Registration and provided that the Company has delivered written notice to the Holders prior to receipt of a Demand Registration pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 and it continues to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Registration Statement to become effective; (b) the Holders have requested an Underwritten Registration and the Company and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite such offering; or (c) in the good faith judgment of the Board such Registration would be seriously detrimental to the Company and the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement at such time, then in each case the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than sixty (60) consecutive days; provided, however, that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than one hundred twenty (120) total calendar days in any twelve (12)-month period (the “Aggregate Blocking Period”).

2.5 Block Trades. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article II, but subject to Sections 2.4 and 3.4, if the Holders desire to effect a Block Trade, then notwithstanding any other time periods in this Article II, the Holders shall provide written notice to the Company at least five (5) business days prior to the date such Block Trade will commence. As expeditiously as possible, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Block Trade, provided that the Holders engaging in such Block Trade use their reasonable best efforts to work with the Company and the Underwriters (including by disclosing the maximum number of Registrable Securities proposed to be the subject of such Block Trade) in order to facilitate preparation of the Registration Statement, Prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Block Trade and any related due diligence and comfort procedures. In the event of a Block Trade, and after consultation with the Company, the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) shall determine the Maximum Number of Securities, the underwriter or underwriters (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks) and share price of such offering.

2.6 Rule 415; Removal. If at any time the Commission takes the position that the offering of some or all of the Registrable Securities in a Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed pursuant to this Article II is not eligible to be made on a delayed or continuous basis under the provisions of Rule 415 under the Securities Act (provided, however, that the Company shall be obligated to use diligent efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Registrable Securities in accordance with the Commission Guidance, including without limitation, Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 612.09) or requires a Gores-Footprint-222 Holder to be named as an “underwriter,” the Company shall promptly notify each holder of Registrable Securities thereof (or in the case of the Commission requiring a Gores-Footprint-222 Holder to be named as an “underwriter,” the Gores-Footprint-222 Holders) and (b) use commercially reasonable efforts to persuade the Commission that the offering contemplated by such Registration Statement is a valid secondary offering and not an offering “by or on behalf of the issuer” as defined in Rule 415 and that none of the Gores-Footprint-222 Holders is an

“underwriter.” The Holders shall have the right to select one legal counsel designated by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities subject to such Registration Statement to review and oversee any registration or matters pursuant to this Section 2.6, including participation in any meetings or discussions with the Commission regarding the Commission’s position and to comment on any written submission made to the Commission with respect thereto. No such written submission with respect to this matter shall be made to the Commission to which the applicable Holders’ counsel reasonably objects. In the event that the Commission refuses to alter its position, the Company shall (a) remove from such Registration Statement such portion of the Registrable Securities (the “Removed Shares”) and/or (b) agree to such restrictions and limitations on the registration and resale of the Registrable Securities as the Commission may require to assure the Company’s compliance with the requirements of Rule 415; provided, however, that the Company shall not agree to name any Gores-Footprint-222 Holder as an “underwriter” in such Registration Statement without the prior written consent of such Gores-Footprint-222 Holder and, if the Commission requires such Gores-Footprint-222 Holder to be named as an “underwriter” in such Registration Statement, notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not be under any obligation to include any Registrable Securities of such Gores-Footprint-222 Holder in such Registration Statement. In the event of a share removal pursuant to this Section 2.6, the Company shall give the applicable Holders at least five (5) days prior written notice along with the calculations as to such Holder’s allotment. Any removal of shares of the Holders pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall first be applied to Holders other than the Gores-Footprint-222 Holders with securities registered for resale under the applicable Registration Statement and thereafter allocated between the Gores-Footprint-222 Holders on a pro rata basis based on the aggregate amount of Registrable Securities held by the Gores-Footprint-222 Holders. In the event of a share removal of the Holders pursuant to this Section 2.6, the Company shall promptly register the resale of any Removed Shares pursuant to subsection 2.1.2 hereof and in no event shall the filing of such Registration Statement on Form S-1 or subsequent Registration Statement on Form S-3 filed pursuant to the terms of subsection 2.1.2 be counted as a Demand Registration hereunder. Until such time as the Company has registered all of the Removed Shares for resale pursuant to Rule 415 on an effective Registration Statement, the Company shall not be able to defer the filing of a Registration Statement pursuant to Section 2.4 hereof.

It is acknowledged by the Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’ commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holders and all such incremental expenses shall be borne and paid by the Holders Pro Rata on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities registered on their behalf.

3.3 Participation in Underwritten Offerings.

3.3.1 No Person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such Person (a) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and (b) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

3.3.2 Holders participating in an Underwritten Offering may, at their option, require that any or all of the representations and warranties by, and the other agreements on the part of, the Company to and for the benefit of the Underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Holders and that any or all of the conditions precedent to the obligations of such Underwriters shall also be made to and for the benefit of such Holders; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to make any representations or warranties with respect to written information specifically provided by a Holder in writing for inclusion in the Registration Statement.

3.3.3 The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that no Underwriter shall require any Holder to make any representations or warranties to or agreements with the Company or the Underwriters other than representations, warranties or agreements regarding such Holder and such Holder’s intended method of distribution and any other representation required by law, and if, despite the Company’s commercially reasonable efforts, an Underwriter requires any Holder to make additional representation or warranties to or agreements with such Underwriter, such Holder may elect not to participate in such Underwritten Offering (but shall not have any claims against the Company as a result of such election). Any liability of such Holder to any Underwriter or other person under such underwriting agreement shall be limited to an amount equal to the proceeds (net of expenses and underwriting discounts and commissions) that it derives from such registration.

3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, or in the opinion of counsel for the Company it is necessary to supplement or amend such Prospectus to comply with law, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement or including the information counsel for the Company believes to be necessary to comply with law (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice such that the Registration Statement or Prospectus, as so amended or supplemented, as applicable, will not include a Misstatement and complies with applicable law), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than forty-five (45) days, determined in good faith by the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or the Board to be necessary for such purpose; provided, that each day of any such

suspension pursuant to this Section 3.4 shall correspondingly decrease the Aggregate Blocking Period available to the Company during any twelve (12)-month period pursuant to Section 2.4 hereof. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.4.

3.5 Market Stand-off. In connection with any Underwritten Offering or Shelf Underwritten Offering of equity securities of the Company (other than a Block Trade), if requested by the managing Underwriter(s), each participating Holder other than Xxxx with respect to the Xxxx PIPE Shares will agree that it shall not Transfer any shares of Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company (other than those included in such offering pursuant to this Agreement), without the prior written consent of the managing Underwriter(s), during a period the ninety (90)-day period beginning on the date of pricing of such offering or such shorter period during which the Company agrees not to conduct an underwritten primary offering of Common Stock, except in the event the Underwriters managing the offering otherwise agree by written consent. Each Holder other than Xxxx with respect to the Xxxx PIPE Shares agrees to execute a customary lock-up agreement in favor of the Underwriters to such effect (in each case on substantially the same terms and conditions as all such participating Holders). In addition to the foregoing, each of the Footprint Holders acknowledges that such Footprint Holder is subject to the lockup provisions set forth in the Amended and Restated Bylaws of the Company, dated as of [●], 2022.

3.6 Covenants of the Company. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company hereby covenants and agrees:

3.6.1 the Company will not file any Registration Statement or Prospectus included therein or any other filing or document (other than this Agreement) with the Commission which refers to any Holder of Registrable Securities by name or otherwise without the prior written approval of such Holder, which may not be unreasonably withheld, unless required by applicable law or the Commission Guidance;

3.6.2 at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings, provided that any documents publicly filed or furnished with the Commission pursuant to the Electronic Data Gathering Analysis and Retrieval System (or any successor thereto) shall be deemed to have been furnished to the Holders pursuant to this subsection 3.5.2. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell shares of Common Stock held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission). Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements; and

3.6.3 upon request of a Holder, the Company shall (i) authorize the Company’s transfer agent to remove any legend on share certificates of such Holder’s Common Stock or Private Placement Warrants restricting further transfer (or any similar restriction in book entry positions of such Holder) if such restrictions are no longer required by the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws or any agreement with the Company to which such Holder is a party, including if such shares subject to such a restriction have been sold pursuant to a Registration Statement, (ii) request the Company’s transfer agent to issue in lieu thereof shares of Common Stock or Private Placement Warrants without such restrictions to the Holder upon, as applicable, surrender of any stock certificates evidencing such shares of Common Stock, or warrant certificates evidencing such Private Placement Warrants or to update the applicable book entry position of such Holder so that it no longer is subject to such a restriction, and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with such Holder to have such Xxxxxx’s shares of Common Stock or Private Placement Warrants, as the case may be, transferred into a book-entry position at The Depository Trust Company, in each case, subject to delivery of customary documentation, including any documentation required by such restrictive legend or book-entry notation.

ARTICLE IV

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

4.1 Indemnification.

4.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors, partners, stockholders, members, employees, investment advisors and agents and each Person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (or actions or proceedings, whether commenced or threatened, in respect thereof) (collectively, “Claims”), resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; except insofar as the Claim arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such filing in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such Xxxxxx expressly for use therein.

4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, the Company may require that, as a condition to including any Registrable Securities in any Registration Statement the Company shall have received an undertaking reasonably satisfactory to it from such Holder, to indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) from and against Claims resulting from any untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each Person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company. If any Underwriter shall require any Holder of Registrable Securities to provide any indemnification other than that provided hereinabove in this subsection 4.1.2, such Holder may elect not to participate in such Underwritten Offering (but shall not have any claim against the Company as a result of such election).

4.1.3 Any Person entitled to indemnification herein shall (a) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any Claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (b) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such Claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a Claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one (1) counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such Claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such Claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) and which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault or culpability on the part of such indemnified party or does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

4.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director, partners, stockholders, members, employees, agents, investment advisors or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the Transfer of Registrable Securities. The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in a Registration also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Xxxxxx’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Claims, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Claims (a) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the indemnifying party or parties on the one hand and the indemnified party or parties on the other hand from the offering of the Registrable Securities or (b) if the allocation provided by clause (a) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (a) above but also to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party or parties on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Claims, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or related to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder or any director, officer, employee, investment advisor, agent or controlling Person thereof under this subsection 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in subsections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

ARTICLE V

5.2.3 Subject to subsection 5.2.2, a Holder may assign or delegate such Holder’s rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any Person to whom it Transfers Registrable Securities, provided that such Registrable Securities remain Registrable Securities following such Transfer and such Person agreed to become bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement in accordance with subsection 5.2.6.

Any Transfer or assignment made other than as provided in this Section 5.2 shall be null and void.

5.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts (including facsimile or PDF counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute the same instrument, but only one of which need be produced.

5.4 Governing Law; Venue. NOTWITHSTANDING THE PLACE WHERE THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE EXECUTED BY ANY OF THE PARTIES HERETO, THE PARTIES EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO PRINCIPLES OR RULES OF CONFLICT OF LAWS TO THE EXTENT SUCH PRINCIPLES OR RULES WOULD REQUIRE OR PERMIT THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANOTHER JURISDICTION.

5.5 Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. Any action based upon, arising out of or related to this Agreement, or the transactions contemplated hereby, shall be brought in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court declines to exercise jurisdiction, any federal or state court located in New York County, New York, and each of the parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such action, waives any objection it may now or hereafter have to personal jurisdiction, venue or to convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect of the action shall be heard and determined only in any such court, and agrees not to bring any action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any other court. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to affect the right of any party to serve process in any manner permitted by law, or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce judgments obtained in any action brought pursuant to this Section 5.5.

5.6 Amendments and Modifications. Upon the written consent of the Company and the Holders of at least a majority in interest of the Registrable Securities at the time in question, compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this Agreement may be waived, or any of such provisions, covenants or conditions may be amended or modified; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) any amendment hereto or waiver hereof that would materially and adversely affect a Holder of at least five percent (5%) of the Registrable Securities, solely in its capacity as a holder of the shares of capital stock of the Company, in a manner that is adverse and different from the other Holders (solely in their capacities as holders of the shares of capital stock of the Company) shall require the consent of the Holder so affected, (b) any amendment hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects any of the material rights of the Gores Holders, Footprint Holders or 222 Holders, as applicable, solely in their respective capacities as Gores Holders, Footprint Holders or 222 Holders, as applicable, in a manner that is adverse and different from the other Holders, shall require the consent of the Gores Holders, Footprint Holders or 222 Holders, as applicable, representing a majority-in-interest of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities held by the Gores Holders, Footprint Holders or 222 Holders, as applicable, and (c) any amendment or waiver of Sections 3.5 or 5.10, as such amendments apply to Xxxx, shall require the prior written consent of Xxxx. No course of dealing between any Holder or the Company and any other party hereto or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or the Company in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or the Company. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such party.

5.7 Other Registration Rights. Other than pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreements, the Company represents and warrants that no person, other than a Holder of Registrable Securities, has any right to require the Company to register any securities of the Company for sale or to include such securities of the Company in any Registration filed by the Company for the sale of securities for its own account or for the account of any other Person. Further, the Company and each of the Holders agree that this Agreement supersedes any other registration rights agreement or agreement with similar terms and conditions among the parties hereto and in the event of a conflict between any such agreement or agreements and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

5.8 Term. This Agreement shall terminate (a) as to all Holders and the Company, upon the earlier of the date as of which all of the Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to a Registration Statement (but in no event prior to the applicable period referred to in Section 4(a)(3) of the Securities Act and Rule 174 thereunder (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission)) or (b) as to any Holder individually, the date on which such Holder no longer holds any Registrable Securities or is permitted to sell all of such Holder’s Registrable Securities under Rule 144 (or any similar provision) under the Securities Act without limitation on the amount of securities sold or the manner of sale and because the reporting requirements of Rule 144(i)(2) are not applicable. The provisions of Section 3.5 and Article IV shall survive any termination.

5.9 Holder Information. Each Holder agrees, if requested in writing, to represent to the Company the total number of Registrable Securities held by such Xxxxxx in order for the Company to make determinations hereunder.

5.10 PIPE Securities. The Company’s Class A common stock (the “Xxxx PIPE Shares”) purchased by KSP Footprint Investments, LLC (“Xxxx”) pursuant to the Subscription Agreement, dated as of December 13, 2021, by and between the Company and Xxxx, shall not be deemed to be Registrable Securities for purposes of this agreement and Xxxx shall only be party to this Agreement in its capacity as a Footprint Holder.
