Reference is made to that certain Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA”), dated as of the date hereof, by and among Wag Labs, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), CHW Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“SPAC”), and CHW Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned direct subsidiary of SPAC (“Merger Sub”). This letter agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) is being entered into and delivered by SPAC, the Company and each of CHW Acquisition Sponsor LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), Xxxxx Xxxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxxxxx (together with the Sponsor, the “Founder Shareholders”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by the BCA. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the BCA.
In consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, SPAC, the Company and each Founder Shareholder hereby agree as follows:
1. | Each Founder Shareholder represents and warrants that such Founder Shareholder holds the number of Founders Shares and Founders Warrants set forth opposite such Founder Shareholder’s name on Exhibit A under the heading “Total Shares” and “Total Warrants.” As used herein, “Founders Shares” means, (i) for all periods prior to the completion of the Domestication, ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of SPAC and, (ii) for all periods after the completion of the Domestication, common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Domesticated SPAC. As used herein, “Founders Warrants” means, prior to the Domestication, warrants to purchase ordinary shares of SPAC, with each whole warrant exercisable for one ordinary share of SPAC at an exercise price of $11.50. “Founders Equity” means, collectively, the Founders Shares and the Founders Warrants held by all Founder Shareholders. |
2. | With respect to 360,750 Founders Shares (which shall be equitably adjusted for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combination, exchange of shares or other like change or transaction with respect to Domesticated SPAC Common Stock occurring after the Acquisition Closing) (the “Sponsor Forfeiture Shares”), during the period commencing on the date hereof and ending on the earlier of (A) the date that is three years after the Acquisition Closing, (B) the date on which such Sponsor Forfeiture Share(s) is no longer subject to forfeiture in accordance with Section 3 or Section 4 below, (C) subsequent to the Acquisition Closing, the consummation of a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Domesticated SPAC’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares for cash, securities or other property, and (D) the valid termination of the BCA pursuant to Article IX thereof, the Sponsor agrees that it shall not: (a) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase, or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder with respect to, any Sponsor Forfeiture Shares, (b) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Sponsor Forfeiture Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise or (c) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clauses (a) or (b); provided, that (i) the Sponsor may transfer Sponsor Forfeiture Shares as contemplated by clauses (1) through (8) of Section 7(c) of the Prior Letter Agreement (as defined below), if and only if, the transferee of such Sponsor Forfeiture Shares evidences in writing reasonably satisfactory to SPAC such transferee’s agreement to be bound by and subject to the terms and provisions hereof to the same effect as the Sponsor and (ii) if SPAC waives any of the lockup provisions of the Lockup Agreement, then the lockup provisions contained in this Letter Agreement shall be so waived to the extent of such waiver of the Lockup Agreement, with respect to the same percentage of Domesticated SPAC Common Stock as to which the lockup provisions of the Lockup Agreement are released. |
3. | The number of Sponsor Forfeiture Shares subject to potential forfeiture shall be determined as follows: |
(a) | Upon the date on which the daily volume-weighted average sale price of one share of Domesticated SPAC Common Stock quoted on the Nasdaq (or the exchange on which the shares of Domesticated SPAC Common Stock are then listed) is greater than or equal to $12.50 for any twenty (20) Trading Days (which may or may not be consecutive) within any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period within the time period beginning on the Acquisition Closing Date and ending on the three-year anniversary of the Acquisition Closing Date, then 120,250 Sponsor Forfeiture Shares will no longer be subject to forfeiture and shall no longer be subject to Section 2. |
(b) | Upon the date on which the daily volume-weighted average sale price of one share of Domesticated SPAC Common Stock quoted on the Nasdaq (or the exchange on which the shares of Domesticated SPAC Common Stock are then listed) is greater than or equal to $15.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days (which may or may not be consecutive) within any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period within the time period beginning on the Acquisition Closing Date and ending on the three-year anniversary of the Acquisition Closing Date, then an additional 120,250 Sponsor Forfeiture Shares will no longer be subject to forfeiture and shall no longer be subject to Section 2. |
(c) | Upon the date on which the daily volume-weighted average sale price of one share of Domesticated SPAC Common Stock quoted on the Nasdaq (or the exchange on which the shares of Domesticated SPAC Common Stock are then listed) is greater than or equal to $18.00 for any twenty (20) Trading Days (which may or may not be consecutive) within any thirty (30) consecutive Trading Day period within the time period beginning on the Acquisition Closing Date and ending on the three-year anniversary of the Acquisition Closing Date, then an additional 120,250 will no longer be subject to forfeiture. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that the conditions in this Section 3(c) are satisfied, no Sponsor Forfeiture Shares will be subject to forfeiture and the obligations of the Sponsor in Section 2 shall terminate. |
(d) | On the date that is the three-year anniversary of the Acquisition Closing Date, the Sponsor shall forfeit all Sponsor Forfeitures Shares which remain subject to forfeiture, if any. |
The price targets set forth above shall be equitably adjusted for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combination, exchange of shares or other like change or transaction with respect to Domesticated SPAC Common Stock occurring after the Acquisition Closing.

4. | If, during the three-year period beginning on the first day after the Acquisition Closing, there is a Change of Control pursuant to which the Domesticated SPAC or its stockholders have the right to receive consideration implying a value per share of Domesticated SPAC Common Stock (as agreed in good faith by the Sponsor and the board of directors of the Domesticated SPAC) of: |
(a) | less than $12.50, then immediately prior to such Change of Control, the Sponsor shall forfeit 360,750 Sponsor Forfeiture Shares; |
(b) | greater than or equal to $12.50 but less than $15.00, then (A) immediately prior to such Change of Control, the Sponsor shall forfeit 240,500 Sponsor Forfeiture Shares, and (B) thereafter, the Sponsor Forfeiture Shares shall no longer be subject to forfeiture; |
(c) | greater than or equal to $15.00 but less than $18.00, then (A) immediately prior to such Change of Control, the Sponsor shall forfeit 120,250 Sponsor Forfeiture Shares, and (B) thereafter, the Sponsor Forfeiture Shares shall no longer be subject to forfeiture; or |
(d) | greater than or equal to $18.00, then (A) the Sponsor shall forfeit zero Sponsor Forfeiture Shares, and (B) thereafter, the Sponsor Forfeiture Shares shall no longer be subject to forfeiture. |
The price targets set forth above shall be equitably adjusted for stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combination, exchange of shares or other like change or transaction with respect to Domesticated SPAC Common Stock occurring after the Acquisition Closing.
5. | The Founder Shareholders hereby agree that, in the event that the aggregate amount of cash proceeds made available from the Trust Account to the Domesticated SPAC at the Acquisition Merger Closing, after giving effect to the payment of any cash proceeds required to satisfy exercises of the Redemption Rights (but, for the avoidance of doubt, prior to the payment of any unpaid Company Transaction Expenses or unpaid SPAC Transaction Expenses) is less than 10% of the funds contained in the Trust Account as of the date hereof (without including any funds in the Trust Account with respect to any shares of Domesticated SPAC Common Stock acquired by the PIPE Investors pursuant to the Subscription Agreements), the Founder Shareholders shall irrevocably transfer, surrender and forfeit to SPAC for cancellation (and the Sponsor and SPAC shall take all actions necessary to effect such transfer, surrender and forfeiture for cancellation) for no consideration, fifteen percent (15%) of the Founders Equity indirectly owned as of the date hereof by Xxxxx Xxxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxxxxx as set forth in Section A of the SPAC Disclosure Schedule; provided, that the composition of such fifteen percent (15%) of the Founders Equity (i.e., the number of Founders Shares and the number of Founders Warrants) shall be in the Founder Shareholders’ sole discretion. |
6. | The Founder Shareholders hereby agree that, in the event that the Company Community Shares are issued in accordance with the BCA in an amount equal to the Company Community Share Amount, the Founder Shareholders shall irrevocably transfer, surrender and forfeit to SPAC for cancellation (and the Sponsor and SPAC shall take all actions necessary to effect such transfer, surrender and forfeiture for cancellation) for no consideration 20,000 shares of the Founders Equity indirectly owned as of the date hereof by Xxxxx Xxxxxx and Xxxx Xxxxxxxx. |

The parties acknowledge and agree that the Prior Letter Agreement shall survive the consummation of the Transactions in accordance with its terms, and each Founder Shareholder shall comply with, and fully perform all of such Founder Shareholder’s obligations, covenants and agreements set forth in, the Prior Letter Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the lock-up provisions in Section 7 thereof). |

10. | SPAC acknowledges and agrees that, from and after the date hereof, any Insider (as defined in the Prior Letter Agreement) may participate in the formation of, or become an officer or director of, any blank check company. Upon the prior written request of the Sponsor, SPAC agrees to assign to any Insider designated by the Sponsor all right, title and interest in and to the trademarks, trade names, service marks, logos, corporate names, domain names and other source identifiers held by SPAC as of the date hereof, including any and all goodwill related to the foregoing (the “SPAC Marks”), and from and after the Acquisition Closing, SPAC shall cease and discontinue all use of such SPAC Marks, including any xxxx or term confusingly similar thereto or derivative thereof. |

12. | Subject to the terms and conditions of this Letter Agreement, SPAC and each Founder Shareholder agrees to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by the BCA and this Letter Agreement. |
