Buyer shall provide the Company and its counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the Proxy Statement prior to its filing with the SEC or mailing to shareholders and Buyer shall consider any comments by the Company and its counsel in good faith. Buyer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to comply with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC and to comply with all state “blue sky” Laws applicable to carrying out the transactions contemplated hereby. The Proxy Statement shall include proxy materials for the purpose of soliciting proxies from Buyer stockholders to vote, at a special general meeting of Buyer’s stockholders to be called and held for such purpose (the “Buyer Special Meeting”), in favor of resolutions approving (i) the approval of the “Business Combination”, as such term is defined in Buyer’s Organizational Documents, and the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the Additional Agreements and the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby by the holders of Buyer Common Stock in accordance with Buyer’s Organizational Documents, Delaware Law and the rules and regulations of the SEC and Nasdaq, (ii) the approval, for purposes of complying with and to the extent required by applicable Nasdaq listing rules, of the issuance by PubCo, as successor to Buyer, of the PubCo Class A Common Stock and PubCo Class B Common Stock to be issued in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (iii) the adoption of the A&R Certificate of Incorporation and approval of each change to Buyer’s existing certificate of incorporation required to be separately approved effective as of the Closing, (iv) the election of directors effective as of the Closing, (v) the adoption and approval of the Equity Incentive Plan (as defined below), (vi) such other matters as the Company and Buyer shall hereafter mutually determine to be necessary or appropriate in order to effect the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, such determination by either party not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned, or the Additional Agreements (the approvals described in foregoing clauses (i) through (vi), collectively, the “Buyer Stockholder Approval Matters”), and (vii) the adjournment of the Buyer Special Meeting, if necessary, to permit further solicitation of proxies if there are not sufficient votes to approve and adopt any of the foregoing proposals.

(d) To the extent not prohibited by Law, Buyer will advise the Company, reasonably promptly after Buyer receives notice thereof, of the time when the Proxy Statement or any supplement or amendment has been filed, of the issuance of any stop Order or the suspension of the qualification of the Buyer Class A Common Stock for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, of the initiation or written threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, or of any request by the SEC for the amendment or supplement of the Proxy Statement or for additional information.

(b) Without the prior written consent of the Company and Sponsor, Buyer shall not permit any amendment or modification to be made to, or any waiver (in whole or in part) of any provision or remedy under, or any replacements of, any of the Subscription Agreements.
