Promptly following the earlier of (i) the date on which the entire Exchange Fund has been disbursed and (ii) the date which is one (1) year after the Effective Time, the Purchaser shall instruct Continental to deliver to the Purchaser any remaining portion of the Exchange Fund and other documents in its possession related to the Transaction, and Continental’s duties shall terminate. Thereafter, each Company Stockholder may look only to the Purchaser (subject to applicable abandoned property, escheat or other similar Laws), as general creditors thereof, for satisfaction of such Company Stockholder’s claim for Per Share Base Consideration that such Company Stockholder may have the right to receive pursuant to Section 2.02 without any interest thereon. None of the Company, the Purchaser, the Surviving Company or Continental shall be liable to any Person for any portion of the aggregate Per Share Base Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any portion of the aggregate Per Share Base Consideration that remains undistributed to Company Stockholders as of immediately prior to the date on which such portion of the aggregate Per Share Base Consideration would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Purchaser, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

2.05 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary and to the extent available under the DGCL, shares of Company Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than shares of Company Common Stock, if any, cancelled in accordance with Section 2.03(a)(i)) that are held by stockholders who have neither voted in favor of the Merger nor consented thereto in writing and who have demanded properly in writing appraisal or dissenters’ rights for such shares of Company Common Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”) and otherwise complied with all of the provisions of the DGCL relevant to the exercise and perfection of appraisal rights, shall not be converted into, and the holders of such Dissenting Shares shall have no right to receive, the applicable portion of the Aggregate Common Stock Base Consideration, the Aggregate Preferred Stock Consideration and the Aggregate Earn-out Consideration unless and until such holder fails to perfect or withdraws or otherwise loses his, her or its right to appraisal and payment under the DGCL. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such holder fails to perfect or otherwise waives, withdraws or loses the right to dissent under Section 262 of the DGCL, or if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 262 of the DGCL, such Dissenting Shares shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the portion of the Aggregate Common Stock Base Consideration, the Aggregate Preferred Stock Consideration and the Aggregate Earn-out Consideration to which such holder is entitled pursuant to the applicable subsections of Section 2.02, without interest thereon, upon surrender of the certificate or certificates representing such Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section 2.04.

2.06 No Fractional Shares. No fractional shares of Domesticated Purchaser Common Stock, or certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Domesticated Purchaser Common Stock, will be issued upon the conversion of the Company Securities pursuant to the Merger, and any such fractional shares or interests therein will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a stockholder of Purchaser. Any fractional shares of Domesticated Purchaser Common Stock will be rounded down to the nearest whole number.

2.07 Lost or Destroyed Certificates. Notwithstanding any other provision to this Agreement, if any certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon the making of a customary affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company, Continental shall issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificate, the portion of the aggregate Per Share Base Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such certificate(s) as contemplated under this Agreement.

2.08 Withholding. Notwithstanding any other provision to this Agreement, the Purchaser, Merger Sub, the Company, and the Surviving Company (and their respective Representatives) shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amount payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such Taxes that are required to be deducted or withheld with respect to such amounts under the Code, or under any provision of U.S. state or local or non-U.S. tax law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld and paid over to the appropriate Governmental Authorities, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes under this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Purchaser, Merger Sub, the Company and the Surviving Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide recipients of consideration with a reasonable opportunity to provide documentation establishing exemptions from or reductions of such withholdings. In the case of any such payment payable to employees of the Company in connection with the Merger treated as compensation, the Parties shall reasonably cooperate to pay such amounts through the Company’s payroll to facilitate applicable withholding; provided, however that with respect to any Earnout Shares issued pursuant to Section 2.09, any withholding obligation arising in connection with such issuance may be satisfied by withholding from issuance or disposing of, or causing the disposition of, a portion of the Earnout Shares otherwise issuable to such recipient having a fair market value, as determined by the Purchaser in good faith, sufficient to enable the Purchaser to satisfy in full any such withholding obligation.

2.09 Earnout.

(a) Earn-out Consideration. In addition to the issuance of the Per Share Base Consideration pursuant to Section 2.02, as promptly as reasonably practicable (but in any event, within five (5) Business Days) after the occurrence of a Triggering Event, the Purchaser shall issue or cause to be issued to the Eligible Stockholders (based on their respective Pro Rata Shares), the following shares of Domesticated Purchaser Common Stock (which shall be equitably adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change or transaction with respect to shares of Domesticated Purchaser Common Stock occurring after the Closing, the “Aggregate Earn-out Consideration”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents:

(i) Upon the occurrence of Triggering Event I, a one-time issuance of 3,000,000 Earnout Shares;

(ii) Upon the occurrence of Triggering Event II, a one-time issuance of 3,000,000 Earnout Shares; and

(b) If, during the Earnout Period, there is a Change of Control pursuant to which the Purchaser or its shareholders have the right to receive consideration implying a value per share of Domesticated Purchaser Common Stock (as determined in good faith by the Post-Closing Purchaser Board) of:

(i) less than $15.00 per share, then Section 2.09(a) and this Section 2.09(b) shall terminate and no further shares of Domesticated Purchaser Common Stock shall be issuable thereunder or hereunder;

(ii) greater than or equal to $15.00 per share but less than $20.00 per share, then, (A) immediately prior to such Change of Control, the Purchaser shall issue 2,500,000 shares of Domesticated Purchaser Common Stock to the Eligible Stockholders (based on their respective Pro Rata Shares) (less any Earnout Shares issued prior to such Change of Control pursuant to Section 2.09(a)(i) or (ii); provided, that such reduction shall not reduce the number of shares required to be issued to a number that is below zero) and (B) thereafter, Section 2.09(a) and this Section 2.09(b) shall terminate and no further Earnout Shares shall be issuable thereunder or hereunder;

(iii) greater than or equal to $20.00 per share, then (A) immediately prior to such Change of Control, the Company shall issue 5,000,000 shares of Domesticated Purchaser Common Stock to the Eligible Stockholders (based on their respective Pro Rata Shares) (less any Earnout Shares issued prior to such Change of Control pursuant to Section 2.09(a)(i) or (ii); provided, that such reduction shall not reduce the number of shares required to be issued to a number that is below zero) and (B) thereafter, Section 2.09(a) and this Section 2.09(b), shall terminate and no further Earnout Shares shall be issuable thereunder or hereunder;

(c) The Common Stock Price targets set forth in the definitions of Triggering Event I and Triggering Event II, and in Sections 2.09(a)(i) and (ii), shall be equitably adjusted for any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change or transaction with respect to shares of Domesticated Purchaser Common Stock occurring after the Closing.

(d) No certificates or scrip or shares representing fractional Earnout Shares shall be issued pursuant to this Section 2.09 and such fractional share interests will not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to have any rights of shareholder. In lieu of any fractional Earnout Shares to which any Eligible Stockholder would otherwise be entitled, the Company shall round down to the nearest whole Earnout Share. No cash settlements shall be made with respect to fractional shares eliminated by rounding.

(b) The Purchaser SEC Reports were, and the Additional Purchaser SEC Reports will be, prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations thereunder. The Purchaser SEC Reports did not, and the Additional Purchaser SEC Reports will not, at the time they were or are filed (or if amended or superseded by a filing prior to the date of this Agreement or the Closing Date, then on the date of such filing), as the case may be, with the SEC contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Each director and executive officer of Purchaser has filed with the SEC on a timely basis all statements required with respect to Purchaser by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. The Public Certifications are, or will be, each true and correct as of their respective dates of filing.

There are no separate Contracts, side letters or other arrangements or understandings (whether written or unwritten, express or implied) that would cause the description of the Trust Agreement in the Purchaser SEC Reports to be inaccurate or that would entitle any Person (other than Purchaser Shareholders who shall have properly elected to redeem their Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to Purchaser’s Organizational Documents and the underwriters of the IPO with respect to deferred underwriting commissions) to any portion of the proceeds in the Trust Account. Prior to the Closing, none of the funds held in the Trust Account may be released other than to pay Taxes and payments: (a) to the Purchaser’s public shareholders with respect to the redemption of Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote on a proposed Business Combination but only in the event that the applicable Business Combination is approved and consummated and subject to the limitations contained in the Purchaser’s Organizational Documents; (b) to the Purchaser’s public shareholders who elect to have their Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares repurchased by means of a tender offer subject to the provisions contained in the Purchaser’s Organizational Documents; (c) to the Purchaser’s public shareholders if any amendments are made to the Purchaser’s Organizational Documents to (i) modify the substance or timing of Purchaser’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with its initial business combination or to redeem 100% of its Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares if it has not consummated an initial business combination within the prescribed window or (ii) with respect to any other material provisions related to: (A) the rights of holders of Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares, or (B) pre-initial business combination activity, upon effectiveness of any such amendment; or (d) to the Purchaser’s public shareholders if Purchaser fails to consummate a Business Combination by the deadline set forth in the Purchaser’s Organizational Documents, and subject to extension by amendment to Purchaser’s Organizational Documents, including interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account (which interest shall be net of any taxes payable and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), and (e) to Purchaser after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination.

During the Interim Period, each Party shall give prompt notice to the other Parties if such Party or its Affiliates: (a) receives any notice or other communication in writing from any third party (including any Governmental Authority) alleging: (i) that the Consent of such third party is or may be required in connection with the Transactions or (ii) any non-compliance with any Law by such Party or its Affiliates; (b) receives any notice or other communication from any Governmental Authority in connection with the Transactions; or (c) becomes aware of the commencement or threat, in writing, of any Legal Proceeding against such Party or any of its Affiliates, or any of their respective properties or assets, or, to the Knowledge of such Party, any officer, director, partner, member or manager, in his, her or its capacity as such, of such Party or of its Affiliates, in each case, with respect to the consummation of the Transactions. No such notice shall constitute an acknowledgement or admission by the Party providing the notice regarding whether or not any of the conditions to the Closing have been satisfied or in determining whether or not any of the representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement have been breached. In the event that any litigation related to this Agreement, any Ancillary Documents or the Transactions is brought, or, to the Knowledge of the Parties, respectively, threatened, against such Party, or the board of directors (or similar governing body) of such Party or its Subsidiaries, respectively, by a third party prior to the Closing, such Party shall promptly notify the other Party of any such litigation and keep the other Party reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof. Each Party shall provide the other Party the opportunity to participate in (subject to a customary joint defense agreement), but not control, the defense of any such litigation, shall give due consideration to the other Party’s advice with respect to such litigation and shall not settle or agree to settle any such litigation without the prior written consent of the other Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

6.09  Efforts.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Party shall use its reasonable best efforts, and shall cooperate fully with the other Parties, to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Laws and regulations to consummate the Transactions (including the receipt of all applicable Consents of Governmental Authorities) and to comply as promptly as practicable with all requirements of Governmental Authorities applicable to the Transactions.

(b) In furtherance and not in limitation of Section 6.09(a), to the extent required under any Laws that are designed to prohibit, restrict or regulate actions having the purpose or effect of monopolization or restraint of trade or lessening of competition through merger or acquisition (“Antitrust Laws”), each Party hereto agrees to make any required filing or application under Antitrust Laws, as applicable, at such Party’s sole cost and expense (except that any fees or other amounts charged by any Governmental Authorities relating to such filings or applications will be split equally between the Purchaser, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand), with respect to the Transactions as promptly as practicable, to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable any additional information and documentary material that may be reasonably requested pursuant to Antitrust Laws and to take all other actions reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods under Antitrust Laws as soon as practicable, including by requesting early termination of the waiting period provided for under the Antitrust Laws. Each Party shall, in connection with its efforts to obtain all requisite approvals and authorizations for the Transactions under any Antitrust Law, use its commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) cooperate in all respects with each other Party or its Affiliates in connection with any filing or submission and in connection with any investigation or other inquiry, including any proceeding initiated by a private Person; (ii) keep the other Parties reasonably informed of any communication received by such Party or its Representatives from, or given by such Party or its Representatives to, any Governmental Authority and of any communication received or given in connection with any proceeding by a private Person, in each case regarding any of the Transactions; (iii) permit a Representative of the other Parties and their respective outside counsel to review any communication given by it to, and consult with each other in advance of any meeting or conference with, any Governmental Authority or, in connection with any proceeding by a private Person, with any other Person, and to the extent permitted by such Governmental Authority or other Person, give a Representative or Representatives of the other Parties the opportunity to attend and participate in such meetings and conferences; (iv) in the event a Party’s Representative is prohibited from participating in or attending any meetings or conferences, the other Parties shall keep such Party promptly and reasonably apprised with respect thereto; and (v) use reasonable best efforts to cooperate in the filing of any memoranda, white papers, filings, correspondence or other written communications explaining or defending the Transactions, articulating any regulatory or competitive argument, and/or responding to requests or objections made by any Governmental Authority.

(c) As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, the Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other and use (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to use) their respective reasonable best efforts to prepare and file with Governmental Authorities any requests for approval, to the extent required, of the Transactions and shall use their reasonable best efforts to have such Governmental Authorities approve the Transactions. Each Party shall give prompt written notice to the other Parties if such Party or any of its Representatives receives any notice from such Governmental Authorities in connection with the Transactions, and shall promptly furnish the other Parties with a copy of such Governmental Authority notice. If any Governmental Authority requires that a hearing or meeting be held in connection with its approval of the Transactions, whether prior to the Closing or after the Closing, each Party shall arrange for Representatives of such Party to be present for such hearing or meeting. If any objections are asserted with respect to the Transactions under any applicable Law or if any Legal Proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by any applicable Governmental Authority or any private Person challenging any of the Transactions or any Ancillary Document as violative of any applicable Law or which would otherwise prevent, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions, the Parties shall use their reasonable best efforts to resolve any such objections or Legal Proceedings so as to timely permit consummation of the Transactions, including in order to resolve such objections or Legal Proceedings which, in any case if not resolved, could reasonably be expected to prevent, materially impede or materially delay the consummation of the Transactions. In the event any Legal Proceeding is instituted (or threatened to be instituted) by a Governmental Authority or private Person challenging the Transactions, the Parties shall, and shall cause their respective Representatives to, reasonably cooperate with each other and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to contest and resist any such Legal Proceeding and to have vacated, lifted, reversed or overturned any Order, whether temporary, preliminary or permanent, that is in effect and that prohibits, prevents or restricts consummation of the Transactions.

(d) Prior to the Closing, each Party shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain any Consents of Governmental Authorities or other third Persons as may be necessary for the consummation by such Party or its Affiliates of the Transactions or required as a result of the execution or performance of, or consummation of the Transactions by such Party or its Affiliates, and the other Parties shall provide reasonable cooperation in connection with such efforts.

No Party shall knowingly take or knowingly cause to be taken, or knowingly fail to take or knowingly cause to be failed to be taken, any action, if such action or failure to act, as the case may be, would reasonably be expected to prevent or impede the relevant portions of the Transactions from qualifying for their respective Intended Tax Treatments. The Parties hereby agree to file all Tax Returns on a basis consistent with the Intended Tax Treatments unless otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code or a change in applicable Law.

(c) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, excise, recording, registration, value added and other such similar Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) (“Transfer Taxes”) that become payable in connection with or by reason of the Transactions shall be borne and paid by the Company.

(e) Following the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall reasonably cooperate with the shareholders of the Purchaser prior to the Closing Date to make available to any such shareholder who so requests information reasonably necessary for such shareholder (or its direct or indirect owners) to compute any income or gain arising (i) if applicable, as a result of the Purchaser’s status as a “passive foreign investment company” within the meaning of Section 1297(a) of the Code or a “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Section 957(a) of the Code for any taxable period ending on or prior to the Closing Date, including timely (A) publicly posting a PFIC Annual Information Statement to enable such holders to make a "Qualifying Electing Fund" election under Section 1295 of the Code for such taxable period, and (B) providing information to enable applicable holders to report their allocable share of “subpart F” income under Section 951 of the Code for such taxable period, and (ii) under Section 367(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder as a result of the Transactions.

The Purchaser also agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary state securities law or “blue sky” permits and approvals required to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Company shall furnish all information concerning the Company and any of its stockholders as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action. Each of the Purchaser and the Company agrees to furnish to the other party all information concerning itself, its Subsidiaries, if applicable, officers, directors, managers, stockholders, and other equityholders and information regarding such other matters as may be reasonably necessary or advisable or as may be reasonably requested in connection with the Proxy Statement/Registration Statement, a Current Report on Form 8-K pursuant to the Exchange Act in connection with the Transactions, or any other statement, filing, notice or application made by or on behalf of the Purchaser or the Company to any regulatory authority (including Nasdaq) in connection with the Transactions (the “Offer Documents”).

The board of directors of Purchaser shall not, except as required by applicable Law, withdraw, amend, qualify or modify its recommendation to the Purchaser Shareholders that they vote in favor of the Transaction Proposals (together with any withdrawal, amendment, qualification or modification of its recommendation to the Purchaser Shareholders described in the Recitals hereto, a “Modification in Recommendation”).

6.18  Post-Closing Board of Directors and Executive Officers.

(a) The Parties shall take all necessary action, including the Purchaser causing the directors of the Purchaser to resign, so that effective as of the Closing, the Purchaser’s board of directors (the “Post-Closing Purchaser Board”) will consist of seven individuals (appointed in accordance and such that, as of the Closing, the Post-Closing Purchaser Board shall comply with Nasdaq rules). Immediately after the Closing, the Parties shall take all necessary action to designate and appoint to the Post-Closing Purchaser Board (i) the one (1) Person that is designated by the Purchaser prior to the Closing (the “Designated Director”), and (ii) the remaining Persons, all of whom will be designated by the Company prior to the Closing. To the extent Designated Director declines to serve, is unable to serve, or is anticipated to fail to meet the applicable independence and other requirements of Nasdaq and SEC rules (as determined by Purchaser), Purchaser shall have the right to designate a replacement individual to serve as a director on the Post-Closing Purchaser Board. At or prior to the Closing, the Company, if requested, and the Purchaser shall provide each initial director with a customary director indemnification agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to such director, the Company and the Purchaser.

(b) The composition of the Post-Closing Purchaser Board shall satisfy the independence requirements under applicable Law and the relevant rules and regulations of Nasdaq such that a majority of the members of the Post-Closing Purchaser Board will be independent under applicable Law and the relevant rules and regulations of Nasdaq and other requirements of Nasdaq or any other applicable U.S. national securities exchange on which the Purchaser’s securities are listed.

6.19  Indemnification of Directors and Officers; Tail Insurance.

(a) The Parties agree that for a period of six (6) years from the Closing Date, the Parties shall, and shall cause the Purchaser, Merger Sub, and Company to, maintain in effect and honor the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions in favor of any individual who, at or prior to the Closing, is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Purchaser, Merger Sub and Company, as the case may be, or who, at the request of the Parties, as the case may be, served as a director, officer, member, manager, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise (collectively, with such individual’s heirs, executors or administrator, (each, together with such Person’s heirs, executors or administrators, a “D&O Indemnified Party”)), of the Purchaser’s, Merger Sub’s and Company’s Organizational Documents as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date or in any indemnification agreements of the Purchaser, Merger Sub, and Company, on the one hand, with any D&O Indemnified Party, on the other hand, as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, and the Parties shall, and shall cause the Purchaser, Merger Sub and the Company to, not amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any D&O Indemnified Party; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses in respect of any Legal Proceedings pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such Legal Proceeding or resolution of such claim. From and after the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall cause the Company to honor, in accordance with their respective terms, each of the covenants contained in this Section 6.19 without limit as to time.

(b) At or prior to the Closing, the Purchaser shall purchase a non-cancellable “tail” directors’ and officers’ liability, employment practices liability, and fiduciary liability insurance policy (the “D&O Tail”) in respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the Closing covering each such Person that is currently covered by a directors’ and officers’ liability, employment practices liability, or fiduciary liability insurance policy of the Purchaser and Company, on terms and conditions with respect to coverage, deductibles and amounts no less favorable than those of such applicable policies in effect on the date of this Agreement for the six (6) year period following the Closing. The Purchaser and the Company shall maintain the D&O Tail in full force and effect for its full term and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by the Company, as applicable, and no other party shall have any further obligation to purchase or pay for such insurance pursuant to this Section 6.19.

(c) The rights of each D&O Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such Person may have under the Organizational Documents of the Purchaser and/or Company, any other indemnification arrangement, any Law or otherwise. The obligations of the Purchaser and the Company under this Section 6.19(c) shall not be terminated or modified after the Closing in such a manner as to materially and adversely affect any D&O Indemnified Party without the prior written consent of such D&O Indemnified Party. The provisions of this Section 6.19 shall survive the Closing and expressly are intended to benefit, and are enforceable by, each of the D&O Indemnified Parties and his or her successors, heirs and permitted assigns, each of whom is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 6.19.

(d) If the Purchaser or, after the Closing, the Company, or any of its successors or assigns: (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving entity of such consolidation or merger; or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of the Purchaser or the Company, as applicable, honor and assume the indemnification and obligations set forth in this Section 6.19.

6.20 PIPE Investment. The Purchaser shall use its reasonable best efforts to satisfy the conditions of the closing obligations contained in the subscription agreements relating to the PIPE Investment and consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.

6.21 Redemption. In connection with the Purchaser Shareholders’ Meeting, the Purchaser agrees that it shall provide the holders of shares of Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares the opportunity to elect redemption of such shares of Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares, as required by the Purchaser’s Organizational Documents in the Redemption. Subject to receipt of the Purchaser Shareholder Approval, and at least one (1) day prior to the Domestication, the Purchaser shall carry out the Redemption and use the proceeds held in the Trust Account to redeem the Purchaser Class A Ordinary Shares of holders who properly exercise their right to redemption in accordance with the Purchaser’s Organizational Documents.

6.22 Domestication. Subject to receipt of the Purchaser Shareholder Approval, at least one (1) day prior to the Closing, the Purchaser shall, in accordance with applicable Law, any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, the Nasdaq and the Purchaser’s Organizational Documents, as applicable, cause the Domestication to become effective, including by (a) filing with the Delaware Secretary of State a certificate of domestication with respect to the Domestication, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser and the Company, together with the Purchaser Charter upon Domestication, in each case, in accordance with the provisions thereof and applicable Law, and (b) completing and making and procuring all those filings required to be made with the Cayman Registrar in connection with the Domestication.

6.23 Adoption of Proxy Statement/Registration Statement. Within one (1) Business Day of the Closing Date, the post-Domestication Purchaser, as the successor to the pre-Domestication Purchaser, shall file a post-effective amendment to the Proxy Statement/Registration Statement pursuant to Rule 414(d) of the Securities Act.

6.24 Compliance. Within a reasonable period following the Closing, and to the extent not already in place, the Company will implement risk-based compliance measures, taking into account the Company’s business, operations and risk profile and having regard to applicable U.S. governmental guidance,, including the adoption and implementation of adequate risk-based policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with (a) applicable Anti-Bribery Laws, including the internal-controls provisions imposed on issuers by the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended; and (b) applicable Sanctions Laws and International Trade Laws. The compliance program shall be proportionate to the Company’s actual regulatory exposure as an aviation OEM and shall not require the Company to implement controls designed for defense contractors holding facility security clearances or classified access absent the Company’s future acquisition of such clearances or access.

6.25  U.S. Citizenship. The Purchaser acknowledges that, as of the date hereof, the Company operates solely as an aircraft designer and manufacturer and does not hold economic authority from the Department of Transportation requiring U.S. citizenship under 49 U.S.C. § 40102(a)(15). If, at any time following the Closing, the Company applies for or is required to hold economic authority or other authorization from the Department of Transportation that requires U.S. citizenship, the Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the post-closing corporate structure satisfies the U.S. citizenship requirements of 49 U.S.C. § 40102(a)(15), including with respect to voting control and beneficial ownership limitations applicable to U.S. air carriers and their affiliates. This Section 6.26 is a forward-looking covenant only and shall not be construed as a present-tense representation regarding the citizenship status of the Purchaser or any of its stockholders.

6.26  Name Change.

(a) At or prior to the Effective Time, but following the Purchaser Shareholders’ Meeting, the Surviving Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take all necessary corporate actions, including amending its certificate of incorporation and making all required filings with the Secretary of State of Delaware, to change its name to “Elroy Air Operating Company Inc.”, and the Parties shall cooperate in good faith in connection therewith.

(b) The Purchaser shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take all necessary corporate actions, including amending its certificate of incorporation and making all required filings with the Secretary of State of Delaware, to change its name to “Elroy Air, Inc.”, effective as soon as practicable following the Effective Time.

6.27 Type Certification Covenant. During the Interim Period, the Company shall diligently prosecute the Type Certification Application, including by engaging with the FAA regarding the establishment of the certification basis, continuing design and compliance activities, conducting required testing, and responding to FAA requests for information or meetings, in each case, in a manner consistent with internationally recognized aerospace engineering practices and applicable FAA policies and guidance. The Purchaser acknowledges that type certification timelines are subject to FAA processes, resource allocation, and requirements that are not within the sole control of the Company. Nothing in this Section 6.27 shall require the Company to accept onerous or commercially unreasonable conditions, special conditions, or equivalent levels of safety findings as a condition to advancing the Type Certification Application, provided that the Company shall consult in good faith with the Purchaser before rejecting any material FAA position on the certification basis. For the avoidance of doubt, the certification strategy being pursued by the Company targets a Restricted Category Type Certificate under 14 C.F.R. §21.25, using special-class criteria under §21.17(b), and no representation or covenant in this Agreement shall be construed to require the Company to alter its certification strategy or pursue any alternative category or pathway except as may be determined by the Company in its reasonable business judgment. The Company's obligations under this Section 6.27 are limited to actions within the Company's reasonable control, and the Company shall not be deemed in breach of this Section 6.27 by reason of any delay, inaction, or decision by the FAA or any other Aviation Authority. In addition, any good-faith disagreement between the Company and the FAA regarding the certification basis, compliance methods, or technical requirements shall not constitute a breach of this Section 6.27.

Upon the filing of the Certificate of Domestication and this Certificate of Incorporation, each issued and outstanding ordinary share of Columbus Circle shall convert automatically, on a one-for-one basis, into one (1) share of Common Stock, without any action required on the part of the Corporation or the holders thereof.

Unless the Corporation consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, (a) the Court of Chancery (the “Chancery Court”) of the State of Delaware (or, in the event that the Chancery Court does not have jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware or other state courts of the State of Delaware) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action, suit or proceeding brought on behalf of the Corporation, (ii) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or stockholder of the Corporation to the Corporation or to the Corporation’s stockholders, (iii) any action, suit or proceeding arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the bylaws of the Corporation or this Restated Certificate (as either may be amended from time to time) or (iv) any action, suit or proceeding asserting a claim against the Corporation governed by the internal affairs doctrine; and (b) subject to the preceding provisions of this Article XI, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause or causes of action arising under the Securities Act, including all causes of action asserted against any defendant to such complaint. If any action the subject matter of which is within the scope of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence is filed in a court other than the courts in the State of Delaware (a “Foreign Action”) in the name of any stockholder, such stockholder shall be deemed to have consented to (x) the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the State of Delaware in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the provisions of clause (a) of the immediately preceding sentence and (y) having service of process made upon such stockholder in any such action by service upon such stockholder’s counsel in the Foreign Action as agent for such stockholder.

Any Person purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest in any security of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and consented to this Article XI. This Article XI is intended to benefit and may be enforced by the Corporation, its officers and directors, the underwriters to any offering giving rise to such complaint, and any other professional or entity whose profession gives authority to a statement made by that Person and who has prepared or certified any part of the documents underlying the offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this Article XI shall not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the federal courts of the United States have exclusive jurisdiction.

If any provision or provisions of this Article XI shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any circumstance for any reason whatsoever, (a) the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Article XI (including, without limitation, each portion of any paragraph of this Article XI containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the application of such provision to other Persons and circumstances shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

ARTICLE XII.

If any provision or provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable as applied to any circumstance for any reason whatsoever: (i) the validity, legality and enforceability of such provisions in any other circumstance and of the remaining provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation (including, without limitation, each portion of any paragraph of this Certificate of Incorporation containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable that is not itself held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and (ii) to the fullest extent possible and without limiting any other provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation (or any other provision of the Bylaws of the Corporation or any agreement entered into by the Corporation), the provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation (including, without limitation, each such portion of any paragraph of this Certificate of Incorporation containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to permit the Corporation to protect its directors, officers, employees and agents from personal liability in respect of their good faith service to, or for the benefit of, the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by law.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, each and every Person purchasing or otherwise acquiring any interest (of any nature whatsoever) in any shares of the capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed, by reason of and from and after the time of such purchase or other acquisition, to have notice of and to have consented to all of the provisions of (a) this Certificate of Incorporation, (b) the Bylaws of the Corporation and (c) any amendment to this Certificate of Incorporation or the Bylaws of the Corporation enacted or adopted in accordance with this Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws of the Corporation and applicable law.

ARTICLE XIII.

Section 13.1 In recognition and anticipation that members of the Board of Directors who are not employees of the Corporation or a majority owned subsidiary thereof (“Non-Employee Directors”) and their respective Affiliates may now engage and may continue to engage in the same or similar activities or related lines of business as those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage and/or other business activities that overlap with or compete with those in which the Corporation, directly or indirectly, may engage, the provisions of this Article XIII are set forth to regulate and define the conduct of certain affairs of the Corporation with respect to certain classes or categories of business opportunities as they may involve any of the Non-Employee Directors or their respective Affiliates and the powers, rights, duties and liabilities of the Corporation and its directors, officers and stockholders in connection therewith.

Section 13.2 No Non-Employee Director (including any Non-Employee Director who serves as an officer of the Corporation in both his or her director and officer capacities) or his or her Affiliates (collectively, “Identified Persons” and, each individually, an “Identified Person”) shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have any duty to refrain from directly or indirectly (1) engaging in the same or similar business activities or lines of business in which the Corporation or any of its Affiliates now engages or proposes to engage or (2) otherwise competing with the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, no Identified Person shall be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders or to any Affiliate of the Corporation for breach of any fiduciary duty solely by reason of the fact that such Identified Person engages in any such activities. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Corporation hereby renounces any interest or expectancy in, or right to be offered an opportunity to participate in, any business opportunity which may be a corporate opportunity for an Identified Person and the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, except as provided in Section 13.3. Subject to Section 13.3, in the event that any Identified Person acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or other business opportunity which may be a corporate opportunity for itself, herself or himself and the Corporation or any of its Affiliates, such Identified Person shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, have no duty to communicate or offer such transaction or other business opportunity to the Corporation or any of its Affiliates and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, shall not be liable to the Corporation or its stockholders or to any Affiliate of the Corporation for breach of any fiduciary duty as a stockholder, director or officer of the Corporation solely by reason of the fact that such Identified Person pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself, herself or himself, offers or directs such corporate opportunity to another Person, or does not communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Corporation or any Affiliate of the Corporation.

Section 13.3 The Corporation does not renounce its interest in any corporate opportunity offered to any Non-Employee Director (including any Non-Employee Director who serves as an officer of the Corporation in both his or her director and officer capacities) if such opportunity is expressly offered to such Person solely in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Corporation, and the provisions of Section 13.2 shall not apply to any such corporate opportunity.

Section 13.4 In addition to and notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article XIII, a corporate opportunity shall not be deemed to be a potential corporate opportunity for the Corporation if it is a business opportunity that (i) the Corporation is neither financially or legally able, nor contractually permitted, to undertake, (ii) from its nature, is not in the line of the Corporation’s business or is of no practical advantage to the Corporation or (iii) is one in which the Corporation has no interest or reasonable expectancy.

Section 13.5 Solely for purposes of this Article XIII, “Affiliate” shall mean (a) in respect of any stockholder, any Person that, directly or indirectly, is controlled by such stockholder, controls such stockholder or is under common control with such stockholder and shall include (i) any principal, member, director, manager, partner, stockholder, officer, employee or other representative of any of the foregoing (other than the Corporation and any entity that is controlled by the Corporation) and (ii) any funds or vehicles advised by Affiliates of such stockholder, (b) in respect of a Non-Employee Director, any Person that, directly or indirectly, is controlled by such Non-Employee Director (other than the Corporation and any entity that is controlled by the Corporation) and (c) in respect of the Corporation, any Person that, directly or indirectly, is controlled by the Corporation.

Section 13.6 To the fullest extent permitted by law, any Person purchasing or otherwise acquiring or holding any interest in any shares of capital stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to have notice of and to have consented to the provisions of this Article XIII.

ARTICLE XIV.

(a) “Affiliate” means a Person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, another Person;

(b) “Control,” including the terms “controlling,” “controlled by” and “under common control with,” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise. A Person who is the owner of ten percent (10%) or more of the outstanding voting stock of any corporation, partnership, unincorporated association or other entity shall be presumed to have control of such entity, in the absence of proof by a preponderance of the evidence to the contrary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a presumption of control shall not apply where such Person holds voting stock, in good faith and not for the purpose of circumventing this section, as an agent, bank, broker, nominee, custodian or trustee for one or more owners who do not individually or as a group have control of such entity.

(c) “Exchange Act” means the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and any applicable rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and any successor to such statute, rules or regulations.

(i) beneficially owns such stock, directly or indirectly; or

(ii) has (a) the right to acquire such stock (whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time) pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding, or upon the exercise of conversion rights, exchange rights, warrants or options, or otherwise; provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed the owner of stock tendered pursuant to a tender or exchange offer made by such Person or any of such Person’s Affiliates until such tendered stock is accepted for purchase or exchange; or (b) the right to vote such stock pursuant to any agreement, arrangement or understanding; provided, however, that a Person shall not be deemed the owner of any stock because of such Person’s right to vote such stock if the agreement, arrangement or understanding to vote such stock arises solely from a revocable proxy or consent given in response to a proxy or consent solicitation made to ten or more Persons; or

(iii) has any agreement, arrangement or understanding, for the purpose of acquiring, holding, voting (except voting pursuant to a revocable proxy or consent as described in item (b) of subsection (ii) above), or disposing such stock, with any other Person that beneficially owns, or whose Affiliates beneficially own, directly or indirectly, such stock.

(e) “Person” means any individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, unincorporated association or other entity.

(h) “voting stock” means stock of any class or series entitled to vote generally in the election of directors and, with respect to any entity that is not a corporation, any equity interest entitled to vote generally in the election of the governing body of such entity.
