(a) The Sponsor has the requisite limited liability company or other similar power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all necessary limited liability company action on the part of the Sponsor. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by the Sponsor and constitutes a valid, legal and binding agreement of the Sponsor, enforceable against the Sponsor in accordance with its terms.

Immediately prior to the Closing, all of the Forfeited Shares (as defined herein) will be owned of record by the Sponsor, and all of the Equity Reduction Warrants (as defined herein) will be owned of record by the Sponsor, and all other Sponsor Shares and Sponsor Warrants will be owned of record by Sponsor or its direct or indirect equityholders, which Forfeited Shares and Equity Reduction Warrants, and such other Sponsor Shares and Sponsor Warrants owned of record by the Sponsor and any other equity securities of Legacy acquired by the Sponsor in accordance with Section 4(c) hereof will constitute all of the equity securities in Legacy held by Sponsor as of immediately prior to the Closing.

Except as provided in this Agreement, or the Business Combination Agreement, the Sponsor is not a party to any voting trust, proxy or other agreement or understanding with respect to the voting of the Sponsor Shares or the Sponsor Warrants. Neither the Sponsor, nor any transferees of any equity securities of Legacy initially held by the Sponsor, has asserted or perfected any rights to adjustment or other anti-dilution protections with respect to any equity securities of Legacy (including the Sponsor Shares and the Sponsor Warrants) (whether in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement or otherwise).
(c) The execution, delivery and performance by it of this Agreement and the consummation by the Sponsor of the transactions contemplated hereby do not: (i) conflict with or result in any breach of any provision of the certificate of formation or limited liability company agreement of the Sponsor, (ii) result in a violation or breach of, or constitute (with or without due notice or lapse of time or both) a default or give rise to any right of termination, cancellation or acceleration under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease, license, contract, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which the Sponsor is a party or by which its properties or assets may be bound, (iii) violate any Applicable Law or Order applicable to the Sponsor or its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective properties or assets (including the Sponsor Shares and the Sponsor Warrants), as applicable, or (iv) result in the creation of any Encumbrance (other than Encumbrances pursuant to this Agreement to which it is subject or bound and transfer restrictions under Applicable Law or under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of Legacy) upon its assets (including the Sponsor Shares and the Sponsor Warrants), except in the case of clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above, for violations which would not reasonably be expected to impair, delay or prevent the ability of the Sponsor to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or to otherwise perform its obligations hereunder.
