In addition, the EverArc Founder Entity has the right to appoint up to six directors for election to the Board.

Effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination through December 31, 2027, the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount will be equal to that number of shares of Common Stock equal to 1.5% of the Founder Advisory Agreement Calculation Number. Each Advisory Amount, as applicable, will be paid on the relevant Payment Date in shares of Common Stock or partly in cash, at the election of the EverArc Founder Entity provided that at least 50% of such Advisory Amount payable is paid in shares of Common Stock. The amounts used for the purposes of calculating the Advisory Amounts and the relevant numbers of shares of Common Stock are subject to adjustment to reflect any split or reverse split of the outstanding shares of Common Stock after the date of the closing of the Business Combination. The Advisory Agreement will remain in effect through December 31, 2031 unless terminated earlier in accordance with its terms. The Advisory Agreement may be terminated by the Issuer at any time if the EverArc Founder Entity engages in any criminal conduct or in willful misconduct which is harmful to the Issuer (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in the State of New York). In addition, the Advisory Agreement can be terminated at any time following consummation of the Business Combination (i) by the EverArc Founder Entity if the Issuer ceases to be traded on the London Stock Exchange, New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq; or (ii) by the EverArc Founder Entity or the Issuer if there is (A) a Sale of the Company (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) or (B) a liquidation of the Issuer.

In each case the Payment Price in the year of termination will be calculated on the basis of the Payment Year (as defined in the Advisory Agreement) ending on the trading day immediately prior to the date of termination, save that in the event of a sale of the Issuer, the Payment Price will be calculated on the basis of the amount paid by the relevant third party (or cash equivalent if such amount is not paid in cash). For each remaining year of the term of the agreement the Payment Price in each case will increase by 15% each year. No account will be taken of any Payment Price in any year preceding the termination when calculating amounts due on termination. Payment will be immediately due and payable on the date of termination of the Advisory Agreement. On the entry into liquidation of the Issuer, an Advisory Amount will be payable in respect of a shortened year which will end on the trading day immediately prior to the date of commencement of liquidation.
