(b) Each Stockholder Party or any of its Permitted Transferees may Transfer any Lock-up Shares it holds during the Lock-up Period (a) to other Stockholder Parties or any direct or indirect partners, members or equity holders of such Stockholder Party, any Affiliates of such Stockholder Party or any related investment funds or vehicles controlled or managed by such Persons or their respective Affiliates; (b) by gift to a charitable organization; or, in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of the individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the primary beneficiaries of which are one or more members of the individual’s immediate family or an Affiliate of such Person; (c) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (d) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (e) in connection with any bona fide mortgage, encumbrance or pledge to a financial institution in connection with any bona fide loan or debt transaction or enforcement thereunder, including foreclosure thereof; or (f) to the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a definitive agreement that contemplates a Change of Control is entered into after the Closing, the Lock-up Period for any Lock-up Shares shall automatically terminate immediately prior to such Change of Control.

For the avoidance of doubt, Lock-Up Shares shall include any shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by a Stockholder Party pursuant to ownership of shares of capital stock of Joby Holdings, Inc. (f/k/a Joby Aviation, Inc.)

(d) Each Stockholder Party shall be permitted to enter into a trading plan established in accordance with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act during the applicable Lock-up Period so long as no Transfers of such Stockholder Party’s shares of Common Stock in contravention of this Section 2.1 are effected prior to the expiration of the applicable Lock-up Period.
(e) Each Stockholder Party also agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent and registrar against the transfer of any Lock-up Shares except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions and to the addition of a legend to such Stockholder Party’s Lock-up Shares describing the foregoing restrictions.
