WHEREAS, the Holders currently collectively hold 1,150,000 units of TDAC, which were purchased in a private placement simultaneously with the consummation of TDAC’s initial public offering, each of which consists of one share of Trident Common Stock and one warrant (the “Private Warrants”) to purchase one share of Trident Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50;
WHEREAS, the Founder Shares are currently held in escrow pursuant to the terms of that certain Stock Escrow Agreement, dated May 29, 2018, by and between TDAC, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, a New York corporation (the “Escrow Agent”), and the Holders;
WHEREAS, on February 21, 2021, TDAC, Trident Merger Sub II Corp., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of TDAC, and the Company entered into that certain Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”); and
WHEREAS, the Holders and TDAC are entering into this Agreement as a material inducement for the Company to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
1. | In connection with and effective immediately prior to the Closing, the number of Founder Shares (the “Forfeited Founder Shares”) set forth next to each Holder’s name on the signature page hereto shall be automatically (and with no further action by the Holders or TDAC) forfeited by such Holder and cancelled for no consideration (the “Share Forfeiture”) and the Forfeited Founder Shares shall no longer be outstanding at such time and any certificates representing the Forfeited Founder Shares shall be cancelled at such time. The aggregate number of Forfeited Founder Shares shall be determined in accordance with Schedule A hereto. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the aggregate number of Forfeited Founder Shares be less than 561,932 or greater than 3,090,625. |
2. | In connection with and effective immediately prior to the Closing, all of the Private Warrants shall be automatically (and with no further action by the Holders or TDAC) forfeited by the Holders and cancelled for no consideration (the “Warrant Forfeiture”) and all of the Private Warrants shall no longer be outstanding at such time and any certificates representing the Private Warrants shall be cancelled at such time. |
3. | To effect the Share Forfeiture and the Warrant Forfeiture, in connection with and immediately prior to the Closing: |
(a) | the Holders shall be automatically deemed to have irrevocably transferred and surrender the Forfeited Founder Shares and the Private Warrants to TDAC for cancellation and in exchange for no consideration; |
(b) | TDAC shall immediately retire, extinguish and cancel all of the Forfeited Founder Shares and the Private Warrants and any certificates representing such Forfeited Founder Shares and Private Warrants (and shall direct the Escrow Agent and TDAC’s transfer agent (or such other intermediaries as appropriate) to take any and all such actions incident thereto); and |
(c) | each Holder and TDAC shall take such actions as are necessary or desirable to cause the Forfeited Founder Shares and the Private Warrants to be retired and cancelled, after which the Forfeited Founder Shares and the Private Warrants shall no longer be issued, outstanding, convertible, or exercisable, and the Holders and TDAC shall provide the Company with evidence that such retirement and cancellation has occurred. |
4. | The Holders hereby represent and warrant to the Company, as of the date hereof and as of the Closing, that the Holders own, and hold of record, all of the Forfeited Founder Shares and the Private Warrants, free and clear of all Liens and other obligations in respect of the Forfeited Founder Shares and Private Warrants. |
5. | No party hereto may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each of the other parties hereto. Any purported assignment in violation of this paragraph shall be void and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee. This Agreement shall be binding on TDAC, the Holders, the Company, and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns. |
6. | Each Holder that is not a natural person hereby represents and warrants that it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, formed, organized or constituted, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby are within such Holder’s corporate, limited liability company or organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company or organizational actions on the part of such Holder. Each Holder that is an individual hereby represents and warrants that such Holder has full legal capacity, right and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform his or her obligations hereunder. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Holder and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties to this Agreement, this Agreement constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of such Holder, enforceable against such Holder in accordance with the terms hereof. |
6. | Any notice, consent, or request to be given in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed given: (a) on the date established by the sender as having been delivered personally; (b) one Business Day after being sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier guaranteeing overnight delivery; (c) on the date delivered, if delivered by email, with confirmation of transmission; or (d) on the fifth Business Day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid.
