The Sponsor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that, at the GigCapital2 Stockholders’ Meeting, at any other meeting of the stockholders of GigCapital2 (whether annual or special and whether or not an adjourned or postponed meeting, however called and including any adjournment or postponement thereof) and in connection with any written consent of the stockholders of GigCapital2, the Sponsor shall:
a. when such meeting is held, appear at such meeting or otherwise cause all shares of GigCapital2 Common Stock or any other voting securities of GigCapital2 which it holds, owns or is entitled to vote, whether as shares or as a constituent part of a unit of securities and whether owned as of the date of or later acquired (the “Sponsor Shares”), to be counted as present thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum;
b. vote (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause to be voted at such meeting (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), all of the Sponsor Shares in favor of (i) the approval and adoption of the BCA and approval of the Merger and all other transactions contemplated by the BCA and (ii) against any action, agreement or transaction or proposal that would result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of GigCapital2 under the BCA or that would reasonably be expected to result in the failure of the Merger from being consummated and (iii) each of the proposals and any other matters necessary or reasonably requested by GigCapital2 for consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the BCA, including the UpHealth Combination; and
c. vote (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause to be voted at such meeting (or validly execute and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to), all of the Sponsor Shares against (i) any Alternative Transaction (which, for the avoidance of doubt, excludes the UpHealth Combination) other than with the Company and (ii) any other action that would reasonably be expected to (x) materially impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by the BCA, or (y) result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or other obligation or agreement of the Sponsor contained in this Agreement.
2. Transfer of Shares. Except as otherwise contemplated by the BCA or this Agreement, the Sponsor agrees that it shall not, directly or indirectly, (a) offer for sale, sell, assign, transfer (including by operation of law), create any lien or pledge, dispose of or otherwise encumber any of the Sponsor Shares or otherwise agree to do any of the foregoing, (b) deposit any Sponsor Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement or grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect thereto that is inconsistent with this Agreement or (c) enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or undertaking requiring the direct acquisition or sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of any Sponsor Shares.
3. No Solicitation of Transactions. The Sponsor agrees not to directly or indirectly, through any officer, director, representative, agent or otherwise, (a) solicit, initiate or knowingly encourage (including by furnishing information) the submission of, or participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, any transaction in violation of the BCA or UpHealth BCA or (b) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person or other entity or “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act, any information with the intent to, or otherwise cooperate in any way with respect to, or knowingly assist, participate in, facilitate or encourage, any unsolicited proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably be expected to lead to, an Alternative Transaction or other transaction in violation of the BCA or UpHealth BCA. Sponsor shall, and shall cause its affiliates and Representatives to, immediately cease any and all existing discussions or negotiations with any person (other than with the Company, UpHealth, its and their stockholders and their respective affiliates and Representatives) conducted prior to the date hereof with respect to, or which is reasonably likely to give rise to or result in, an Alternative Transaction. If the Sponsor receives any inquiry or proposal with respect to an Alternative Transaction, then Sponsor shall promptly (and in no event later than twenty-four (24) hours after the Sponsor becomes aware of such inquiry or proposal) notify such person in writing that GigCapital2 is subject to an exclusivity agreement with respect to the Merger that prohibits Sponsor from considering such inquiry or proposal.
4. Representations and Warranties of the Sponsor. The Sponsor hereby represents and warrants to GigCapital2 and the Company as follows:
