REINCORPORATION MERGER

2.1 Reincorporation Merger. At the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, subject to and upon the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Cayman Companies Act, Parent shall be merged with and into Purchaser, the separate corporate existence of Parent shall cease and Purchaser shall continue as the surviving company. Purchaser as the surviving company after the Reincorporation Merger is hereinafter sometimes referred to as “Purchaser Surviving Corporation”.

2.2 Reincorporation Merger Effective Time. On a date no later than three (3) Business Days after the satisfaction or waiver of all the conditions set forth in ARTICLE XI that are required to be satisfied prior to the Closing Date, the parties shall cause the Reincorporation Merger to be consummated by filing the plan of merger (and any other documents required by the Cayman Companies Act) (collectively, the “CRPM”) with the Registrar of Companies of the Cayman Islands (the “Cayman Registrar”) in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Cayman Companies Act. The effective time of Reincorporation Merger shall be the date that the plan of merger is registered with, and the certificate of merger is issued by, the Cayman Registrar, or such later time as specified in or in accordance with the CRPM being the “Reincorporation Merger Effective Time”.

2.3 Effect of Reincorporation Merger. At the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, the effect of Reincorporation Merger shall be as provided in this Agreement, the CRPM and the applicable provisions of the Cayman Companies Act. At the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, all the property, rights, privileges, agreements, powers and franchises, debts, liabilities, duties and obligations of Parent and Purchaser prior to the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time shall become the property, rights, privileges, agreements, powers and franchises, debts, liabilities, duties and obligations of Purchaser Surviving Corporation, which shall include the assumption by Purchaser Surviving Corporation of any and all agreements, covenants, duties and obligations of Parent set forth in this Agreement or any other outstanding agreement to which Parent is a party to be performed after the Closing, and all securities of Purchaser Surviving Corporation issued and outstanding as a result of the conversion under Section 2.6 shall be listed on Nasdaq or OTC, as applicable.

2.4 Charter Documents. At the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, the memorandum and articles of association of Purchaser shall be amended and restated to a form acceptable to Holdings and Parent which shall become the memorandum and articles of association of Purchaser Surviving Corporation (“Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Purchaser Surviving Corporation”). The new name of Purchaser Surviving Corporation will be “Forekast Group” or such other name as provided by Purchaser and stated in the CRPM.

2.5 Directors and Officers of Purchaser Surviving Corporation. As of the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, the Persons constituting the officers and directors of Parent prior to the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time shall continue to be the officers and directors of Purchaser Surviving Corporation (holding the same title as held at Parent) until the Effective Time.

2.6 Effect on Issued Securities of Parent.

(a) With respect to Parent Ordinary Shares:

(i) At the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, (A) each issued and outstanding Class A Parent Ordinary Share (other than the Parent Excluded Shares, the Parent Dissenting Shares and Parent Ordinary Shares redeemed pursuant to the Offer) shall automatically be converted into one Purchaser Class A Ordinary Share and (B) each issued and outstanding Class B Parent Ordinary Share (other than the Parent Excluded Shares, the Parent Dissenting Shares and Parent Ordinary Shares redeemed pursuant to the Offer) shall automatically be converted into one Purchaser Class B Ordinary Share. At the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, all Parent Shares shall cease to be outstanding, shall be canceled and shall cease to exist. The holders of issued Parent Ordinary Shares immediately prior to the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, as evidenced by the register of members of Parent (the “Parent ROM”), shall cease to have any rights with respect to such Parent Ordinary Shares, except the right to receive the same number of Purchaser Surviving Corporation Ordinary Shares or as otherwise required by Law. Each certificate (if any) previously evidencing Parent Ordinary Shares (other than the Parent Excluded Shares, the Parent Dissenting Shares and Parent Ordinary Shares redeemed pursuant to the Offer) shall be exchanged for a certificate representing the same number of Purchaser Ordinary Shares upon the surrender of such certificate in accordance with Section 2.7.

(ii) At the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, each issued and outstanding Parent Preferred Share shall be converted automatically into one Purchaser Surviving Corporation Preferred Share.

(b) Each Parent Dissenting Share issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled by virtue of the Reincorporation Merger, and each former holder of Parent Dissenting Shares shall thereafter cease to have any rights with respect to such securities, except the right to be paid the fair value of such Parent Dissenting Shares and such other rights as are granted by the Cayman Companies Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such holder shall have failed to perfect or prosecute or shall have otherwise waived, effectively withdrawn or lost its rights under Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Act or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Act, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Parent Dissenting Shares under Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Act shall cease and such former Parent Ordinary Shares shall no longer be considered Parent Dissenting Shares for purposes hereof and shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted as of the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time into the right to receive the applicable Purchaser Surviving Corporation Ordinary Shares pursuant to Section 2.6(a), without any interest thereon.

(c) At the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, (i) all Parent Units will separate into their individual components of Class A Parent Ordinary Shares and Parent Warrants, and will cease separate existence and trading and (ii) each issued and outstanding Parent Warrant shall cease to be a warrant with respect to Parent Ordinary Shares, shall be assumed by Purchaser Surviving Corporation and be converted into one Purchaser Surviving Corporation Warrant and shall cease separate existence and trading. Each Purchaser Surviving Corporation Warrant shall have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable agreements governing the Parent Warrants that are outstanding immediately prior to the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time. At or prior to the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, Purchaser shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve for future issuance, and shall maintain such reservation for so long as any of Purchaser Surviving Corporation Warrants remain outstanding, a sufficient number of Purchaser Surviving Corporation Ordinary Shares for delivery upon the exercise of Purchaser Surviving Corporation Warrants after the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time.

(d) At the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, any Parent Ordinary Shares owned by Parent as treasury shares or owned by any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Parent immediately prior to the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time (the “Parent Excluded Shares”), shall be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof or payment therefor. In addition, as of the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, the one (1) Ordinary share of Purchaser owned by Parent immediately prior to the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time shall be automatically cancelled and extinguished without any conversion or consideration delivered in exchange therefor.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.6, none of Purchaser Surviving Corporation, Parent or any other Party hereto shall be liable to any person for any amount properly paid to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law.

2.7 Surrender of Parent Ordinary Shares. All securities issued upon the surrender of the Parent Ordinary Shares in accordance with the terms hereof, shall be deemed to have been issued in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such securities, provided that any restrictions on the sale and transfer of the Parent Ordinary Shares shall also apply to Purchaser Surviving Corporation Ordinary Shares so issued in conversion.

2.8 Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any certificates representing securities shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, Purchaser shall, upon the affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates such securities as would be issuable under Section 2.6; provided, however, that Purchaser Surviving Corporation may, in its discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed certificates to execute and deliver a deed of indemnity with respect thereto in the form required by Purchaser Surviving Corporation as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to the certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

2.9 Reincorporation Intended Tax Treatment. For U.S. federal income Tax purposes, Parent and Purchaser intend that the Reincorporation Merger will constitute a transaction that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder to which each of Parent and the Purchaser is a party under Section 368(b) of the Code (the “Reincorporation Intended Tax Treatment”). Parent and Purchaser hereby (a) adopt, and Parent, Purchaser and the Company each acknowledges, this Agreement as a “plan of reorganization” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-2(g), (b) agree to file and retain such information as shall be required under Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-3 and (c) agree to file all Tax and other informational returns on a basis consistent with the Reincorporation Intended Tax Treatment. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that no party is making any representation or warranty as to the qualification of Reincorporation Merger for the Reincorporation Intended Tax Treatment or as to the effect, if any, that any transaction consummated on, after or prior to the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time has or may have on any such reorganization status. Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that each (i) has had the opportunity to obtain independent legal and tax advice with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and (ii) is responsible for paying its own Taxes, including any adverse Tax consequences that may result if the Reincorporation Merger is determined not to qualify for the Reincorporation Intended Tax Treatment.

2.10 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. If, at any time after the Reincorporation Merger Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest Purchaser Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of Parent and Purchaser, the officers and directors of Parent and Purchaser are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

2.11 Dissenter’s Rights. No Person who has validly exercised their dissenters’ rights in respect of the Reincorporation Merger pursuant to Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Act (each, a “Parent Dissenting Shareholder”) shall be entitled to receive the securities of Purchaser Surviving Corporation in accordance with this Section 2.11, with respect to the shares of Parent owned by such Person (“Parent Dissenting Shares”) unless and until such Person shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such Person’s dissenters’ rights under the Cayman Companies Act. Each Parent Dissenting Shareholder shall be entitled to receive only the payment resulting from the procedure in Section 238 of the Cayman Companies Act with respect to the Parent Dissenting Shares owned by such Parent Dissenting Shareholder. If any Parent Shareholder gives to Parent, before the vote on the Reincorporation Merger, written objection to the Reincorporation Merger (each, an “RC Written Objection”) in accordance with Section 238(2) of the Cayman Companies Act:

(a) Parent shall, in accordance with Section 238(4) of the Cayman Companies Act, within twenty (20) days after the date on which the vote of members giving authorization of the Reincorporation Merger is made, give a written notice of the authorization (the “RC Authorization Notice”) to each such Parent Shareholder who has made an RC Written Objection, and

(b) No party shall be obligated to commence the Reincorporation Merger, and the CRPM shall not be filed with the Cayman Registrar, until at least twenty (20) days shall have elapsed since the date on which the RC Authorization Notice is given (being the period allowed for written notice of an election to dissent under Section 238(5) of the Cayman Companies Act, as referred to in Section 239(1) of the Cayman Companies Act), but in any event subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all of the conditions set forth in ARTICLE XI.

4.2 Conversion of Holdings Ordinary Shares.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of any holder of Holdings Ordinary Shares, each Holdings Ordinary Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) any Holdings Ordinary Shares held in the treasury of Holdings, which treasury shares shall be canceled as part of the Merger and shall not constitute “Holdings Ordinary Shares” hereunder, and (ii) any Holding Dissenting Shares), shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive a number of Purchaser Surviving Corporation Ordinary Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the Per Share Merger Consideration by (b) Ten Dollars ($10.00); and each Holdings Shareholder will cease to have any rights with respect to the Holdings Ordinary Shares, except the right to receive the Per Share Merger Consideration as provided herein or by Law.

(b) Two (2) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date (by 8:00 p.m. Eastern Time), the Company shall deliver to Purchaser Surviving Corporation a schedule setting forth the name of each Holdings Shareholder as of the Closing and its Pro Rata Share of the Merger Consideration (the “Equityholder Allocation Schedule”). If there is any change to the Equityholder Allocation Schedule between the time of such delivery and the Closing, the Company shall promptly deliver an updated Equityholder Allocation Schedule to Purchaser Surviving Corporation. Schedule 4.2 sets forth a non-binding example of the Equityholder Allocation Schedule assuming the inputs set forth therein.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any further action on the part of Purchaser Surviving Corporation, Merger Sub, Holdings or the Company, any Holdings Ordinary Shares then held by Holdings (or held in Holdings’ treasury) shall be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b) Each Holdings Dissenting Share issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled by virtue of the Merger and each former holder of Holdings Dissenting Shares shall cease to have any rights with respect to such securities, except the right to be paid the fair value of such Holdings Dissenting Shares and such other rights as are granted by the BVI BCA. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any such holder shall have failed to perfect or prosecute or shall have otherwise waived, effectively withdrawn or lost its rights under Section 179 of the BVI BCA or a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by Section 179 of the BVI BCA, then the right of such holder to be paid the fair value of such holder’s Holdings Dissenting Shares under Section 179 of the BVI BCA shall cease and such former Holdings Ordinary Shares shall no longer be considered Holdings Dissenting Shares for purposes hereof and shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted as of the Merger Effective Time into the right to receive the Merger Consideration, without any interest thereon.

4.4 Share Capital of Merger Sub. Each share in Merger Sub that is issued immediately prior to the Effective Time will, by virtue of the Merger and without further action on the part of Purchaser Surviving Corporation, continue to be part of the issued shares of Holdings Surviving Corporation (and such shares shall be the only issued shares of Holdings Surviving Corporation immediately after the Effective Time). Each certificate evidencing ownership of ordinary shares of Merger Sub will, as of the Effective Time, evidence ownership of such ordinary shares of Holdings Surviving Corporation.

4.5 Issuance of the Merger Consideration.

(a) No certificates or scrip representing fractional Purchaser Surviving Corporation Ordinary Shares will be issued pursuant to the Merger, and instead any such fractional share that would otherwise be issued will be rounded to the nearest whole share, with a Holdings Shareholder’s portion of the Merger Consideration that would result in a fractional share of 0.50 or greater rounding up and a Holdings Shareholder’s portion of the Merger Consideration that would result in a fractional share of less than 0.50 rounding down.

(b) On the Closing Date, Purchaser Surviving Corporation shall deposit, or shall cause to be deposited, with Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Continental”) for the benefit of the Holdings Shareholders, for exchange in accordance with this ARTICLE IV, the number of Purchaser Surviving Corporation Ordinary Shares sufficient to deliver the aggregate Merger Consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement (such Purchaser Surviving Corporation Ordinary Shares, the “Exchange Fund”). Purchaser Surviving Corporation shall cause Continental, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, to pay the Merger Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in accordance with the Equityholder Allocation Schedule and the other applicable provisions contained in this Agreement. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose other than as contemplated by this Agreement.

(c) As soon as practicable following the Effective Time, and in any event within two (2) Business Days following the Effective Time (but in no event prior to the Effective Time), Purchaser Surviving Corporation shall cause Continental to deliver to each Holdings Shareholder as of immediately prior to the Effective Time a letter of transmittal and instructions for use in exchanging such Holdings Shareholder’s Holdings Ordinary Shares for such Holdings Shareholder’s applicable portion of the Merger Consideration from the Exchange Fund (a “Letter of Transmittal”), and, promptly following receipt of a Holdings Shareholder’s properly executed Letter of Transmittal, deliver to such Holdings Shareholder its applicable portion of the Merger Consideration.

(d) The Merger Consideration shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any share split, reverse share split, share dividend, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Purchaser Surviving Corporation Ordinary Shares occurring prior to the date the Merger Consideration is issued.

(e) Any portion of the Exchange Fund relating to the Merger Consideration that remains undistributed to the Holdings Shareholders for one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Purchaser Surviving Corporation, upon demand, and any Holdings Shareholders who have not theretofore complied with this Section 4.5 shall thereafter look only to Purchaser Surviving Corporation for their portion of the Merger Consideration. Any portion of the Exchange Fund remaining unclaimed by Holdings Shareholders as of a date which is immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of Purchaser Surviving Corporation free and clear of any claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

4.6 No Liability. The Parties agree that Purchaser Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to rely conclusively on information set forth in the Equityholder Allocation Schedule and any amounts delivered by Purchaser Surviving Corporation to an applicable Holdings Shareholder in accordance with the Equityholder Allocation Schedule shall be deemed for all purposes to have been delivered to the applicable Holdings Shareholder in full satisfaction of the obligations of Purchaser Surviving Corporation under this Agreement and Purchaser Surviving Corporation shall not be responsible or liable for the calculations or the determinations regarding such calculations set forth therein.

As used in this Section 6.14, the term “file” shall be broadly construed to include any manner in which a document or information is furnished, supplied or otherwise made available to the SEC.

Such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting Parent’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer to material information required to be included in Parent’s periodic reports required under the Exchange Act.

(e) Parent maintains a standard system of accounting established and administered in accordance with GAAP. Parent has designed and maintains a system of internal controls over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act, sufficient to provide reasonable assurances regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with GAAP.

TAX COVENANTS

9.1 Tax Matters.

(a) Parent and Purchaser shall use their reasonable best efforts to cause the Reincorporation Merger to qualify for the Reincorporation Intended Tax Treatment, and none of Parent, Purchaser, the Company or their respective Affiliates has taken or will take any action (or fail to take any action), if such action (or failure to act), whether before or after the Effective Time, would reasonably be expected to prevent or impede the Reincorporation Merger from qualifying for such intended Tax treatment.

(b) Each of Parent, Purchaser, the Company, and their respective Affiliates shall file all Tax Returns consistent with the Reincorporation Intended Tax Treatment (including attaching the statement described in Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-(a) on or with its Tax Return for the taxable year of the Reincorporation Merger), and shall take no position inconsistent with the Reincorporation Intended Tax Treatment (whether in audits, Tax Returns or otherwise), unless otherwise required by a Taxing Authority as a result of a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code.

(c) Any and all Transfer Taxes shall be paid by Purchaser, unless the Transfer Taxes are imposed in connection with the Merger and are an obligation of Holdings’ shareholders under applicable Law, in which case such Transfer Taxes shall be borne by the applicable Holdings’ shareholders. The party required by Law to do so shall file all necessary Tax Returns and other documentation with respect to all such Transfer Taxes, and, if required by applicable Law, the parties shall, and shall cause their respective Affiliates to, join in the execution of any such Tax Returns and other document. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the parties shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) cooperate in good faith to minimize, to the extent permissible under applicable Law, the amount of any such Transfer Taxes.

(d) Within one hundred twenty (120) days after the end of Purchaser’s current taxable year and each subsequent taxable year of Purchaser for which Purchaser reasonably believes that it may be a “passive foreign investment company” within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code (“PFIC”), Purchaser shall (i) determine its status as a PFIC, (ii) determine the PFIC status of each of its Subsidiaries that at any time during such taxable year was a foreign corporation within the meaning of Section 7701(a) of the Code (the “Non-U.S. Subsidiaries”) and (iii) make such PFIC status determinations available to the shareholders of Purchaser as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

10.3 Cooperation with Proxy Statement; Other Filings.

(a) The Company shall promptly provide to Parent such information concerning Holdings, the Company and the Holdings Shareholders as is either required by the federal securities Laws or reasonably requested by Parent for inclusion in the Offer. As promptly as practicable after the receipt by Parent from the Company of all such information relating to the Company, Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC, and with all other applicable regulatory bodies, a proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) for the purpose of soliciting proxies from holders of Parent Ordinary Shares to, among other things, vote in favor of the adoption Parent Proposals at Parent Shareholders’ Meeting.

(c) As soon as practicable after the Proxy Statement is “cleared” by the SEC, Parent shall distribute the Proxy Statement to the holders of Parent Ordinary Shares and, pursuant thereto, shall call a Parent Shareholders’ Meeting in accordance with its Organizational Documents and the Cayman Companies Act to (i) solicit proxies from such holders to vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement, the Reincorporation Merger and the Merger and the approval of the other matters presented to Parent Shareholders for approval or adoption at Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, including the Parent Proposals, and (ii) provide its shareholders the opportunity to elect to effect a redemption as contemplated in Section 10.3(f).

Without limiting the foregoing, Parent shall ensure that the Proxy Statement, as of the date on which it is first distributed to Parent Shareholders and as of the date of Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided that Parent shall not be responsible for the accuracy or completeness of any information relating to Holdings, the Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries or any other information furnished by the Company for inclusion in the Proxy Statement. If at any time prior to Closing, a change in the information relating to Parent or any other information furnished by Parent for inclusion in the Proxy Statement, which would make the preceding sentence incorrect, should be discovered by Parent, it shall promptly notify the Company of such change. If at any time prior to Closing, a change in the information relating to Holdings, the Company, the Company’s Subsidiaries or any other information furnished by the Company for inclusion in the Proxy Statement, which would make such preceding sentence incorrect, should be discovered by the Company, it shall promptly notify Parent of such change. In connection therewith, the Company shall instruct the employees, counsel, financial advisors, auditors and other authorized representatives of the Company to reasonably cooperate with Parent as relevant if required to achieve the foregoing.

(e) In the Proxy Statement, Parent shall seek, in accordance with Parent’s Organizational Documents and applicable securities Laws, including the Cayman Companies Act and rules and regulations of Nasdaq, from the holders of Parent Ordinary Shares, approval of certain proposals, including (i) the approval and adoption of the Business Combination (as defined in Parent’s Organizational Documents), this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, the Merger and the other Transactions; (ii) the approval and adoption of the Reincorporation Merger and the entry into the CRPM; (iii) adoption and approval of the Second Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of Parent, with effect from the Closing, increasing the number of authorized Parent Ordinary Shares for issuance, and changing Parent’s name to “Forekast Group” (including any separate or unbundled proposals as may be required to implement the foregoing); (iv) approval of the issuance of more than 20% of the issued and outstanding Parent Ordinary Shares to the Holdings Shareholders in connection with the Merger as well as any other approval that may be required under the Nasdaq rules; (v) approval of the appointment of the director nominees to the Post-Closing Board of Directors as contemplated by Section 3.6; (vi) approval to adjourn Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, if necessary, to permit further solicitation of proxies because there are not sufficient votes to approve and adopt any of the foregoing; and (vii) approval to obtain any and all other mutually agreed upon approvals necessary or advisable to effect the consummation of the Merger (the proposals set forth in the forgoing clauses (i) through (vii) are referred to as the “Parent Proposals”).

(f) Parent, with the assistance of the Company, shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Proxy Statement to “clear” comments from the SEC as promptly as reasonably practicable. Concurrently with the dissemination of the Proxy Statement, Parent shall commence (within the meaning of Rule 14d-2 under the Exchange Act) an offer (the “Offer”) to Parent Public Shareholders to redeem all or a portion of their Parent Public Shares, all in accordance with and as required by Parent’s Organizational Documents, applicable Law, and any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC.

(g) Parent shall extend the Offer for any minimum period required by any rule, regulation, interpretation or position of the SEC, Nasdaq, OTC or the respective staff thereof that is applicable to the Offer, and pursuant to Parent’s Organizational Documents.

(h) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement or any Transaction Document, Parent may make any public filing with respect to the Reincorporation Merger or the Merger to the extent required by applicable Law; provided, however, that Parent (i) shall permit the Company and its counsel to review and comment on any such filing and all exhibits, amendments or supplements thereto (or other related documents); (ii) shall consider any such comments in good faith and shall accept all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested by the Company and its counsel in connection therewith; and (iii) shall not file any such filing or any exhibit, amendment or supplement thereto without the prior written consent of the Company, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

Parent shall take all action necessary under applicable Law, in consultation with the Company, to establish a record date for, call, give notice of and hold a meeting of the holders of Parent Ordinary Shares to consider and vote on Parent Proposals at Parent Shareholders’ Meeting. Parent Shareholders’ Meeting shall be held as promptly as practicable, in accordance with applicable Law and Parent’s Organizational Documents, after the Proxy Statement is “cleared” by the SEC, but in no event later than 30 days following the date the Proxy Statement is “cleared” by the SEC. Parent shall take reasonable measures to ensure that all proxies solicited in connection with Parent Shareholders’ Meeting are solicited in compliance with all applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if on the date of Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, or a date preceding the date on which Parent Shareholders’ Meeting is scheduled, Parent (after consultation with the Company) reasonably believes that (i) it will not receive proxies sufficient to obtain Parent Required Vote for each Parent Proposal, whether or not a quorum would be present or (ii) it will not have sufficient Parent Ordinary Shares represented (whether in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of Parent Shareholders’ Meeting, Parent may adjourn, or make one or more successive adjournments of, Parent Shareholders’ Meeting in compliance with the Laws of the Cayman Islands and Parent’s Organizational Documents, as long as the date of Parent Shareholders’ Meeting is not adjourned more than an aggregate of twenty (20) clear days in connection with any adjournments.

13.8 Specific Enforcement.

(a) The parties hereby agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any provision of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate the Reincorporation Merger, the Merger or the other Transactions) is not performed in accordance with its specific terms or is otherwise breached. Accordingly, the parties agree that each party shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with Section 13.6, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under the terms of this Agreement at Law or in equity (and each party hereby waives any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy).

(b) 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. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with this Agreement when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such Order or injunction.

13.10 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law or public policy, all other terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law in an acceptable manner to the end that the Transactions are fulfilled to the extent possible.
