Re: Amendment to the Letter Agreement
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This amendment to the Letter Agreement, dated as of July 8, 2021 (this “Letter Agreement Amendment”), is made and entered into by and among Far Peak LLC (the “Sponsor”) and each of the undersigned (each, an “Insider” and, collectively, the “Insiders”) in respect of and in reference to that certain Letter Agreement, dated as of December 4, 2020 (the “Letter Agreement”), by and among the Sponsor and the Insiders. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Letter Agreement Amendment shall have the meanings given to them in the Letter Agreement. The Sponsor and the Insiders acknowledge and agree that the effectiveness of this Letter Agreement Amendment shall be expressly subject to the consummation of the Initial Closing contemplated by that certain Business Combination Agreement (as may be amended, restated or supplemented from time to time, the “Business Combination Agreement”) to be entered into by and among Bullish, a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Pubco”), Bullish Global, a Cayman Islands exempted company, Far Peak Acquisition Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company, BMC 1, a Cayman Islands exempted company and BMC 2, a Cayman Islands exempted company and shall automatically be terminated and made null and void if the Business Combination Agreement is terminated pursuant to the terms therein. The transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement are referred to herein as the “Bullish Business Combination.” In order to induce Pubco to proceed with the Mergers (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Sponsor and the Insiders hereby agree with the Company and Pubco to amend the Letter Agreement as follows:
1. Paragraph 6 of the Letter Agreement is amended, restated and replaced, in its entirety, with the following:
“6. Lock-up; Transfer Restrictions.
(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Letter Agreement, for purpose of Paragraph 6, (i) “Founder Shares” shall mean the Class B ordinary shares of the Company, which will be converted into the Class A ordinary shares of Pubco pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (ii) “Ordinary Shares” shall mean the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, which will be converted into the Class A ordinary shares of Pubco pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (iii) “Private Placement Warrants” shall mean the warrants to purchase Class A ordinary shares of the Company, which will be converted into the Pubco Warrants (as defined in
the Business Combination Agreement) pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, (iv) references to the Company shall refer to Pubco following the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, and (v) references to “initial Business Combination” and “Business Combination” shall refer to the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement.
(b) The Sponsor.
(i) The Sponsor agrees that it shall not Transfer any Founder Shares (the “Sponsor Lock-up”) until the earliest of (A) one year after the completion of an initial Business Combination and (B) following the completion of an initial Business Combination, the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property (the “Sponsor Lock-up Period”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, but subject to Paragraph 6(b)(ii) below, if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the closing price of the Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, share consolidations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Company’s initial Business Combination, the Founder Shares shall be released from the Sponsor Lock-up; provided, however, that, if the Sponsor Lock-up Period would have otherwise expired prior to the date that is 180 days after the Company’s initial Business Combination, such expiration shall not be deemed effective until 180 days after the Company’s initial Business Combination.
(ii) In addition to the provisions of Paragraph 6(b)(i) above:
(1) if, in connection with the consummation of the Bullish Business Combination, more than 15,000,000 Class A ordinary shares are validly tendered for redemption and not withdrawn, the Sponsor shall, at the closing of the Bullish Business Combination, surrender to the Company for cancellation 1,950,000 Founder Shares (the “Forfeiture”);
(2) if, in connection with the consummation of the Bullish Business Combination there is no Forfeiture, then following the closing of such Bullish Business Combination, (i) the Sponsor shall not Transfer 780,000 Founder Shares (the “First Tier Locked-up Shares”) until such time as the closing price of the Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, share consolidations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period after the closing of the initial Business Combination, and (ii) the Sponsor shall not Transfer an additional 780,000 Founder Shares (the “Second-Tier Locked-up Shares”) until such time as the closing price of the Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $15.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, share consolidations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period after the closing of the initial Business Combination; and
(3) in connection with the consummation of the Bullish Business Combination, the Sponsor shall, at the closing of the Bullish Business Combination, surrender to the Company for cancellation 400,000 Private Placement Warrants.
(iii) The Sponsor agrees that it shall not effectuate any Transfer of Private Placement Warrants or Ordinary Shares underlying such warrants until 30 days after the completion of an initial Business Combination.

(c) The Insiders.

2. Paragraph 7 of the Letter Agreement is amended, restated and replaced, in its entirety, with the following:
“7. Remedies. The Sponsor and each of the Insiders hereby agree and acknowledge that (i) each of the Underwriters, the Company and Pubco would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by the Sponsor or such Insider of its, her or his obligations, as applicable under paragraphs 3, 4, 6, 8, and 11, (ii) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (iii) the non-breaching party shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of such breach.”
