(a)            Domestication of JAWS. On the Closing Date prior to the Effective Time, JAWS shall cause the Domestication to occur in accordance with Section 388 of the DGCL and the Cayman Islands Companies Act (As Revised). In connection with the Domestication, (i) each JAWS Class A Share and each JAWS Class B Share that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Domestication shall become one share of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of JAWS (collectively, the “New JAWS Shares”), (ii) each JAWS Warrant that is outstanding immediately prior to the Domestication shall, from and after the Domestication, represent the right to purchase one New JAWS Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per share on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Warrant Agreement (collectively, the “New JAWS Warrants”), (iii) the Governing Documents of JAWS shall become the certificate of incorporation, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit D (the “New JAWS Certificate of Incorporation”), and the bylaws, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E (the “New JAWS Bylaws”), of New JAWS, and (iv) JAWS’s name shall be changed to “Velo3D, Inc.”; provided, however, that in connection with clause (i) and clause (ii), each issued and outstanding unit of JAWS that has not been previously separated into the underlying JAWS Class A Shares and underlying JAWS Warrants prior to the Domestication shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be cancelled and will entitle the holder thereof to one New JAWS Share and one-fourth of one New JAWS Warrant on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Warrant Agreement, as applicable.

(b)           The Merger.

(i)        On the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and in accordance with the DGCL, on the Closing Date promptly following the consummation of the Domestication, Merger Sub shall merge with and into the Company at the Effective Time. Following the Effective Time, the separate existence of Merger Sub shall cease and the Company shall continue as the surviving company of the Merger (the “Surviving Company”).

(ii)       At the Closing, the Parties shall cause a certificate of merger, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and JAWS (the “Certificate of Merger”), to be executed and filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Merger shall become effective on the date and time at which the Certificate of Merger is accepted for filing by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later date or time as is agreed by JAWS and the Company and specified in the Certificate of Merger (the time the Merger becomes effective being referred to herein as the “Effective Time”).

(iii)       The Merger shall have the effects set forth in Section 251 of the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, at the Effective Time, all of the assets, properties, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Company and all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions, disabilities and duties of each of the Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations and duties of the Surviving Company, in each case, in accordance with the DGCL.

(iv)      At the Effective Time, the Governing Documents of Merger Sub shall be the Governing Documents of the Surviving Company, in each case, until thereafter changed or amended as provided therein or by applicable Law.

(v)       At the Effective Time, the directors and officers of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the initial directors and officers of the Surviving Company, each to hold office in accordance with the Governing Documents of the Surviving Company until such director’s or officer’s successor is duly elected or appointed and qualified, or until the earlier of their death, resignation or removal.

(vi)      At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or any other Person, each share of capital stock of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically cancelled and extinguished and converted into one share of common stock, par value $0.0001, of the Surviving Company (each such share, a “Surviving Company Share”).

(vii)     At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or any other Person, each Company Share (including Company Preferred Shares converted to Company Shares in connection with the Preferred Stock Conversion, but excluding the Excluded Shares and Dissenting Shares, if any) issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically canceled and extinguished and converted into the right to receive the Per Share Consideration. From and after the Effective Time, each Company Shareholder’s certificates (the “Certificates”), evidencing ownership of the Company Shares and the Company Shares held in book-entry form issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall each cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Shares except as otherwise expressly provided for herein or under applicable Law.

(viii)    At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or any other Person, each Company Share held immediately prior to the Effective Time by the Company as treasury stock (each, an “Excluded Share”) shall be automatically canceled and extinguished, and no consideration shall be paid with respect thereto.

Section 2.2            Earnout.

(a)            Issuance of Earnout Shares. Subject to Section 2.2(c), as additional consideration for the Merger, within ten (10) Business Days after the occurrence of a Triggering Event, New JAWS shall issue or cause to be issued to each Earnout Pre-Closing Company Securityholder (other than holders of Dissenting Shares, if any) the number of New JAWS Shares equal to the product of (i) the number of Company Shares and the net number of Company Shares that would be issuable in respect of Company Options, Company Warrants or Company Convertible Note in the event such Company Options, Company Warrants or Company Convertible Note were exercised or converted, as applicable (on a net exercise basis with respect to only the applicable exercise price, immediately prior to the Effective Time and settled in the applicable number of shares of Company Shares, rounded down to the nearest whole share), held by such Earnout Pre-Closing Company Securityholder as of immediately prior to the Effective Time; and (ii) the Earnout Exchange Ratio (such issued New JAWS Shares, collectively, the “Earnout Shares”); provided, however, such shares shall not be issued to any Earnout Pre-Closing Company Securityholder who is required to file notification pursuant to the HSR Act until any applicable waiting period pursuant to the HSR Act has expired or been terminated (provided that any such Earnout Pre-Closing Company Securityholder has notified New JAWS of such required filing pursuant to the HSR Act following reasonable advance notice from New JAWS of the reasonably anticipated issuance of Earnout Shares); provided, further, that New JAWS shall make any required HSR filing promptly upon notice by any such Earnout Pre-Closing Company Securityholder that a filing is required. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall New JAWS be required to issue an aggregate number of Earnout Shares in excess of a number of New JAWS Shares equal to ten percent (10%) of the aggregate number of New JAWS Shares (calculated on a fully-diluted basis, including all New JAWS Shares issuable upon the exercise of outstanding stock options and warrants) issued and outstanding as of immediately following the Effective Time and, for the avoidance of doubt, after giving effect to the Domestication, PIPE Financing and the Merger.

(b)           Acceleration Event. If, during the Earnout Period, there is a New JAWS Change of Control that will result in the holders of New JAWS Shares receiving a per share price equal to or in excess of the applicable Stock Price Level required in connection with a given Triggering Event (an “Acceleration Event”), then immediately prior to the consummation of such New JAWS Change of Control: (i) any such Triggering Event that has not previously occurred shall be deemed to have occurred; and (ii) New JAWS shall issue the applicable Earnout Shares to the Earnout Pre-Closing Company Securityholders in accordance with Section 2.2(a).

(i)         Notwithstanding anything in Section 2.2(a) to the contrary, a holder of a Company Option exchanged for a Rollover Option must be in service with New JAWS or an Affiliate as of the applicable Triggering Event and the applicable grant date of the Earnout Shares or Unvested Earnout RSUs, as applicable, to receive the portion of the Earnout Shares or Unvested Earnout RSUs, as applicable, that would otherwise be issued with respect to the Rollover Option (each, an “Eligible Holder”).

(ii)        With respect to each Rollover Option that is vested as of the applicable Triggering Event (each such Rollover Option, a “Vested Rollover Option”), then New JAWS shall issue to the Eligible Holder, as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of such Triggering Event, such portion of the Earnout Shares issuable with respect to such Vested Rollover Option in accordance with Section 2.2(a).

(iii)       With respect to each Rollover Option that remains unvested as of the applicable Triggering Event (each such Rollover Option, an “Unvested Rollover Option”), then in lieu of issuing the applicable Earnout Shares, New JAWS shall instead issue to the Eligible Holder, as soon as reasonably practicable following the later of (A) the occurrence of such Triggering Event and (B) New JAWS’s filing of a Form S-8 Registration Statement, an award of restricted stock units for a number of New JAWS Shares equal to such portion of the Earnout Shares issuable with respect to such Unvested Rollover Option (the “Unvested Earnout RSUs”). Such Unvested Earnout RSUs shall vest over the remaining vesting schedule of the Unvested Rollover Option with respect to which it was granted in approximately equal quarterly installments in the same calendar year as the corresponding portion of the Unvested Rollover Option would have vested and shall be subject to the same vesting conditions as applied to such Unvested Rollover Option. The Eligible Holder shall forfeit any Unvested Earnout RSUs in the event such Eligible Holder’s continuous service to New JAWS or one of its Affiliates terminates prior to such Unvested Earnout RSUs becoming vested.

(iv)      All Unvested Earnout RSUs to be issued hereunder shall be issued under and pursuant to the terms and conditions of the New JAWS Equity Incentive Plan and shall cover a number of shares in addition to the share reserve approved for all other awards under such New JAWS Equity Incentive Plan. Nothing contained in this Section 2.2 or elsewhere in this Agreement, express or implied, (A) is intended to confer upon any holder of Company Option any right to continued employment for any period or (B) is intended to confer upon any holder of Company Options any right as a third party beneficiary of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, any such Earnout Shares and Unvested Earnout RSUs issued to Eligible Holders shall be granted in addition to, and not in lieu of, any Rollover Options, in a manner intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

(d)           Tax Treatment of Earnout Shares. Any issuance of Earnout Shares shall be treated as an adjustment to the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration for all Tax purposes, except to the extent otherwise required by applicable Law (including, for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any amounts required to be treated as interest pursuant to Section 483 of the Code).

(e)            Contractual Right. The right of the Earnout Pre-Closing Company Securityholders to receive the Earnout Shares (i) is solely a contractual right, will not be evidenced by a certificate or other instrument and does not constitute a security, (ii) may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, encumbered or in any other manner transferred or disposed of, in whole or in part, other than upon written notice to New JAWS pursuant to a Permitted Transfer, and (iii) does not give the Earnout Pre-Closing Company Securityholders any right to receive interest payments (except for the right to receive Earnout Shares that will be treated as interest as described in Section 2.2(b)). For purposes of this Agreement, “Permitted Transfer” means: (A) a transfer on death by will or intestacy; (B) a transfer by instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary trust for beneficiaries upon the death of the trustee; (C) a transfer made pursuant to a court order of a court of competent jurisdiction (such as in connection with divorce, bankruptcy or liquidation); (D) a transfer by a partnership or limited liability company through a distribution to its partners or members, as applicable, in each case without consideration; (E) a transfer made by operation of law (including a consolidation or merger) or as pursuant to the dissolution, liquidation or termination of any corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other entity or (F) a transfer by an Earnout Pre-Closing Company Securityholder that is a venture capital or investment fund to an Affiliate.

(f)            No Obligation. There is no guaranty or other assurance of any kind that any Earnout Shares will be payable hereunder (regardless of any projections, models forecasts or any other financial data generated by, or provided to, the Company, JAWS or their respective Affiliates or Representatives). New JAWS shall have sole discretion with regard to all matters relating to the operation of the Business, and shall have no express or implied obligation to take any action, or omit to take any action, to seek to maximize the Earnout or cause the Triggering Events to be satisfied.

Section 2.3            Closing of the Transactions Contemplated by this Agreement. The closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (the “Closing”) shall take place electronically by exchange of the closing deliverables on the third (3rd) Business Day, following the satisfaction (or, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, waiver) of the conditions set forth in Article 6 (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to satisfaction or waiver of such conditions) (the “Closing Date”) or at such other place, date or time as JAWS and the Company may agree in writing.

Section 2.4            Allocation Schedule. No later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to JAWS an allocation schedule (the “Allocation Schedule”) setting forth (a) the number of Company Shares held by each Company Shareholder, the number of Company Shares subject to each Company Equity Award held by each holder thereof, as well as whether each such Company Equity Award will be a Vested Company Option or an Unvested Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, and, in the case of the Company Options, the exercise price thereof, (b) the number of New JAWS Shares that will be subject to each Rollover Option and, in the case of each Rollover Option, the exercise price thereof at the Effective Time, as well as the calculation of the Option Exchange Ratio, (c) a calculation of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration and its components (including the Adjusted Equity Value, the Aggregate Exercise Price and the Equity Value) and the Per Share Consideration, (d) the portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration allocated to each Company Shareholder, and (e) a certification, duly executed by an authorized officer of the Company, that (i) the information delivered pursuant to clause (a), clause (b), clause (c) and clause (d) is, and will be as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, true and correct in all respects and in accordance with the last sentence of this Section 2.4 and (ii) the Company has performed, or otherwise complied with, as applicable, its covenants and agreements set forth in Section 2.5(a)(iv). The Company will review any comments to the Allocation Schedule provided by JAWS or any of its Representatives and consider in good faith any reasonable comments proposed by JAWS or any of its Representatives. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, (A) the aggregate number of New JAWS Shares that each Company Shareholder will have a right to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(vii) will be rounded down to the nearest whole share, (B) in no event shall the aggregate number of New JAWS Shares set forth on the Allocation Schedule that are allocated in respect of Company Shares and Vested Company Options exceed the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration and (C) the Allocation Schedule (or the calculations or determinations therein) shall be prepared in accordance with, as applicable, applicable Law, the Governing Documents of the Company, the Company Equity Plan and any other Contract to which the Company is a party or bound (taking into account, for the avoidance of doubt, any actions taken by the Company pursuant to Section 2.5(a)(iv)).

Section 2.5            Treatment of Company Equity Awards, Company Warrants and Convertible Notes.

(a)            Treatment of Company Equity Awards.

(i)         At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action of any Party or any other Person (but subject to, in the case of the Company, Section 2.5(a)(iii)), each Company Option (whether a Vested Company Option or an Unvested Company Option) shall cease to represent the right to purchase Company Shares and shall be canceled in exchange for an option to purchase a number of New JAWS Shares under the New JAWS Equity Incentive Plan (each, a “Rollover Option”) equal to the product (rounded down to the nearest whole share) of (A) the number of Company Shares subject to such Company Option as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (B) the Option Exchange Ratio applicable to such Company Option, at an exercise price per share (rounded up to the nearest whole cent) equal to (x) the exercise price per share of such Company Option in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, divided by (y) the Option Exchange Ratio applicable to such Company Option (the exercise price per share, as so determined, being rounded up to the nearest full cent).

(ii)        Each Rollover Option shall be subject to the same terms and conditions (including applicable vesting, vesting acceleration, expiration and forfeiture provisions) that applied to the corresponding Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, except for (A) terms (x) rendered inoperative by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any anti-dilution or other similar provisions that adjust the number of underlying shares that could become exercisable subject to the options) or (y) to the extent they conflict with the New JAWS Equity Incentive Plan and (B) such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the New JAWS Board (or the compensation committee of the New JAWS Board) may determine in good faith are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Rollover Options. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such conversion, including the exercise price, the number of New Jaws Shares subject to any such Rollover Option and the terms and conditions of the exercise of any Rollover Option, will be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

(iii)       At the Effective Time, all Company Equity Plans shall terminate and all Company Equity Awards (whether vested or unvested) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and each holder thereof shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto or under the Company Equity Plans, except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Section 2.4.

(iv)       Prior to the Closing, the Company shall take, or cause to be taken, all necessary or appropriate actions under the Company Equity Plans (and the underlying grant, award or similar agreements) or otherwise to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.5.

(b)           Treatment of Company Warrants. At the Effective Time, each Company Warrant that is issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and not terminated pursuant to its terms, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of JAWS, the Company or the holder of any such Company Warrant, shall be converted into a warrant exercisable on the terms and conditions set forth therein for the Total Consideration which such holder would have received if it had exercised such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time (assuming such Company Warrants were then fully vested).

(c)            Treatment of Company Convertible Note. At the Effective Time, if not optionally converted by its holder immediately prior to the Effective Time, the Company Convertible Note will remain outstanding and convertible into New JAWS Shares in accordance with the terms of such Company Convertible Note.

Section 2.6            Closing Deliverables.

(a)            As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, JAWS shall appoint Continental (or its applicable Affiliate) as an exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) and enter into an exchange agent agreement with the Exchange Agent for the purpose of exchanging Certificates, if any, representing the Company Shares and each Company Share held in book-entry form on the stock transfer books of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time, in either case, for the portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration issuable in respect of such Company Shares pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(vii) and on the terms and subject to the other conditions set forth in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, in the event that Continental is unable or unwilling to serve as the Exchange Agent, then JAWS and the Company shall, as promptly as reasonably practicable thereafter, but in no event later than the Closing Date, mutually agree upon an exchange agent (in either case, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), JAWS shall appoint and enter into an exchange agent agreement with such exchange agent, who shall for all purposes under this Agreement constitute the Exchange Agent and each of JAWS and the Company shall mutually agree to any changes to the Letter of Transmittal in order to satisfy any requirements of such exchange agent (in either case, such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

(b)           At least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall mail or otherwise deliver, or shall cause to be mailed or otherwise delivered, to the Company Shareholders a Letter of Transmittal.

(c)           At the Effective Time, JAWS shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the Company Shareholders and for exchange in accordance with this Section 2.6 through the Exchange Agent, evidence of New JAWS Shares in book-entry form representing the portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(vii) in exchange for the Company Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. All shares in book-entry form representing the portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(vii) deposited with the Exchange Agent shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Exchange Fund”.

(d)           Each Company Shareholder whose Company Shares have been converted into the right to receive a portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(vii) shall be entitled to receive the portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration to which he, she or it is entitled on the date provided in Section 2.6(c) upon (i) surrender of a Certificate (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof in the form required by the Letter of Transmittal), together with the delivery of a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any documents or agreements required by the Letter of Transmittal), to the Exchange Agent or (ii) in the case of Company Shares held in book-entry form, a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any documents or agreements required by the Letter of Transmittal), to the Exchange Agent.

(e)            If a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal, together with any Certificates (or affidavit of loss in lieu thereof in the form required by the Letter of Transmittal), if any, is delivered to the Exchange Agent in accordance with Section 2.6(d) (i) at least one Business Day prior to the Closing Date, then JAWS and the Company shall take all necessary actions to cause the applicable portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration to be issued to the applicable Company Shareholder in book-entry form on the Closing Date, or (ii) less than one Business Day prior to the Closing Date, then JAWS and the Company (or the Surviving Company) shall take all necessary actions to cause the applicable portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration to be issued to the Company Shareholder in book-entry form within two (2) Business Days after such delivery.

(f)            If any portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration is to be issued to a Person other than the Company Shareholder in whose name the surrendered Certificate or the transferred Company Share in book-entry form is registered, it shall be a condition to the issuance of the applicable portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration that (i) either such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer or such Company Share in book-entry form shall be properly transferred and (ii) the Person requesting such consideration pay to the Exchange Agent any transfer Taxes required as a result of such consideration being issued to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or Company Share in book-entry form or establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such transfer Taxes have been paid or are not payable.

(g)           No interest will be paid or accrued on the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration (or any portion thereof). From and after the Effective Time, until surrendered or transferred, as applicable, in accordance with this Section 2.6, each Company Share (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, the Company Shares cancelled and extinguished pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(viii)) shall solely represent the right to receive a portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration to which such Company Share is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(b)(vii).

(h)           At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed and there shall be no transfers of Company Shares that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(i)             Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the Company Shareholders twelve (12) months following the Closing Date shall be delivered to New JAWS or as otherwise instructed by New JAWS, and any Company Shareholder who has not exchanged his, her or its Company Shares for the applicable portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.6 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to New JAWS for the issuance of the applicable portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration, without any interest thereon. None of New JAWS, the Surviving Company or any of their respective Affiliates shall be liable to any Person in respect of any consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, unclaimed property, escheat, or similar Law. Any portion of the Adjusted Transaction Share Consideration remaining unclaimed by the Company Shareholders immediately prior to such time when the amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the property of New JAWS free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

Section 2.7            Withholding. JAWS, Merger Sub, the Company and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold (or cause to be deducted and withheld) from any consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld under applicable Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld and timely remitted to the applicable Governmental Entity, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to eliminate or reduce any such deduction or withholding (including through the request and provision of any statements, forms or other documents to reduce or eliminate any such deduction or withholding).

(a)            Section 3.2(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedules sets forth a true and complete statement as of the date of this Agreement of (i) the number and class or series (as applicable) of all of the Equity Securities of the Company issued and outstanding, (ii) the identity of the Persons that are the record and beneficial owners thereof and (iii) with respect to each Company Equity Award, (A) the date of grant, (B) any applicable exercise (or similar) price, (C) the expiration date, and (D) any applicable vesting schedule (including acceleration provisions).

TAX MATTERS

Section 6.1          Tax Matters.

(a)          Tax Treatment.

(i)          The Parties intend that the Domestication will constitute a transaction treated as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code and JAWS shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, use reasonable best efforts to cause it to so qualify. The Parties intend that the Merger will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code, and each Party shall, and shall cause its respective Affiliates to, use reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger to so qualify. The Parties shall file all Tax Returns consistent with, and take no position inconsistent with (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise), the treatment described in this Section 6.1(a) unless required to do so pursuant to a “determination” that is final within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code.

(ii)          JAWS and the Company hereby adopt this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.368-2(g) and 1.368-3(a). From the date hereof through the Closing, and following the Closing, the Parties shall not, and shall not permit or cause their respective Affiliates to, take any action, or knowingly fail to take any action, which action or failure to act prevents or impedes, or would reasonably be expected to prevent or impede, (A) the Merger qualifying for the Intended Tax Treatment, and (B) in the case of JAWS, the Domestication qualifying for the Intended Tax Treatment.

(iii)          Each Party shall use reasonable best efforts to promptly notify the other Party in writing if, before the Closing Date, such Party knows or has reason to believe that the Merger may not qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment (and whether the terms of this Agreement could be reasonably amended in order to facilitate the Merger qualifying for the Intended Tax Treatment).

(iv)          If, in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement / Proxy Statement, the SEC requests or requires that tax opinions be prepared and submitted in such connection, JAWS and the Company shall deliver to Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx and Xxxxxxx & West LLP, respectively, customary Tax representation letters satisfactory to its counsel, dated and executed as of the date the Registration Statement / Proxy Statement shall have been declared effective by the SEC and such other date(s) as determined reasonably necessary by such counsel in connection with the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement / Proxy Statement. If required, JAWS shall cause Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP to furnish an opinion, subject to customary assumptions and limitations, to the effect that the Intended Tax Treatment should apply to the Domestication and, if required, the Company shall cause Fenwick & West LLP to furnish an opinion, subject to customary assumptions and limitations, to the effect that the Intended Tax Treatment should apply to the Merger.

Section 9.16          Submission to Jurisdiction. Each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware (or, if the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction, any state or federal court within State of New York, New York County), for the purposes of any Proceeding, claim, demand, action or cause of action (a) arising under this Agreement or under any Ancillary Document or (b) in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the Parties in respect of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any of the transactions contemplated thereby, and irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the laying of venue of any such Proceeding in any such court, and further irrevocably and unconditionally waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such Proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion or as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any Proceeding claim, demand, action or cause of action against such Party (i) arising under this Agreement or under any Ancillary Document or (ii) in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the Parties in respect of this Agreement or any Ancillary Document or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any of the transactions contemplated thereby, (A) any claim that such Party is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the courts as described in this Section 9.16 for any reason, (B) that such Party or such Party’s property is exempt or immune from the jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (C) that (x) the Proceeding, claim, demand, action or cause of action in any such court is brought against such Party in an inconvenient forum, (y) the venue of such Proceeding, claim, demand, action or cause of action against such Party is improper or (z) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced against such Party in or by such courts. Each Party agrees that service of any process, summons, notice or document by registered mail to such party’s respective address set forth in Section 9.4 shall be effective service of process for any such Proceeding, claim, demand, action or cause of action.

Section 9.17          Remedies. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any and all remedies provided herein will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that the Parties do not perform their respective obligations under the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of them hereunder to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) in accordance with their specific terms or otherwise breach such provisions. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, in each case, without posting a bond or undertaking and without proof of damages and this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the other parties have an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity.

Section 9.18          Trust Account Waiver. Reference is made to the final prospectus of JAWS, filed with the SEC (File Nos. 333-250151 and 333-251085) on December 4, 2020 (the “Prospectus”). The Company acknowledges and agrees and understands that JAWS has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”) and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of JAWS’s public shareholders (including overallotment shares acquired by JAWS’s underwriters, the “Public Shareholders”), and JAWS may disburse monies from the Trust Account only in the express circumstances described in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of JAWS entering into this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its Representatives that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Company nor any of it Representatives does now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between JAWS or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and, the Company or any of its Representatives, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “Trust Account Released Claims”). The Company, on its own behalf and on behalf of its Representatives, hereby irrevocably waives any Trust Account Released Claims that it or any of its Representatives may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, or Contracts with JAWS or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of any agreement with JAWS or its Affiliates).

Section 9.19          Conflicts and Privilege.

(a)          JAWS and the Company, on behalf of their respective successors and assigns (including, after the Closing, the Surviving Company), hereby agree that, in the event a dispute with respect to this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby arises after the Closing between or among (x) the Sponsor, the shareholders or holders of other equity interests of JAWS or the Sponsor and/or any of their respective directors, members, partners, officers, employees or Affiliates (other than the Surviving Company) (collectively, the “JAWS Group”), on the one hand, and (y) the Surviving Company and/or any member of the Company Group, on the other hand, any legal counsel, including Xxxxxxxx & Xxxxx LLP (“K&E”), that represented JAWS and/or the Sponsor prior to the Closing may represent the Sponsor and/or any other member of the JAWS Group, in such dispute even though the interests of such Persons may be directly adverse to the Surviving Company, and even though such counsel may have represented JAWS in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for the Surviving Company and/or the Sponsor.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any privileged communications or information shared by the Company prior to the Closing with JAWS or the Sponsor under a common interest agreement shall remain the privileged communications or information of the Surviving Company.

(b)          JAWS and the Company, on behalf of their respective successors and assigns (including, after the Closing, the Surviving Company), hereby agree that, in the event a dispute with respect to this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby arises after the Closing between or among (x) the shareholders or holders of other equity interests of the Company and/or any of their respective directors, members, partners, officers, employees or Affiliates (other than the Surviving Company) (collectively, the “Company Group”), on the one hand, and (y) the Surviving Company and/or any member of the JAWS Group, on the other hand, any legal counsel, including Fenwick & West LLP (“F&W”) that represented the Company prior to the Closing may represent any member of the Company Group in such dispute even though the interests of such Persons may be directly adverse to the Surviving Company, and even though such counsel may have represented JAWS and/or the Company in a matter substantially related to such dispute, or may be handling ongoing matters for the Surviving Company, further agree that, as to all legally privileged communications prior to the Closing (made in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance under, or any dispute or action arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, any Ancillary Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby) between or among the Company and/or any member of the Company Group, on the one hand, and F&W, on the other hand, the attorney/client privilege and the expectation of client confidence shall survive the Merger and belong to the Company Group after the Closing, and shall not pass to or be claimed or controlled by the Surviving Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any privileged communications or information shared by JAWS prior to the Closing with the Company under a common interest agreement shall remain the privileged communications or information of the Surviving Company.
