EXPLANATORY NOTE

Shift Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-Q/A (the “Amendment”) to the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended June 30, 2022, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 9, 2022 (the “Original Report”), to file copies of Exhibits 2.2, 10.4, 10.9, and 10.10 which were included in the exhibit index to the Original Report but not previously filed with the Original Report due to an administrative delay, and to file copies of Exhibits 10.11, 10.12, and 10.13, which were not included in the original exhibit index due to the same administrative delay.

In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), new certifications by the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are filed herewith as exhibits to this Amendment, under Item 6 hereof, pursuant to Rule 13a-14(a) or 15d-14(a) of the Exchange Act. Since no financial statements have been included in this Amendment and this Amendment does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of the certifications have been omitted. The Company is also not including the certifications required under Section 1350 of Chapter 63 of Title 18 of the United States Code (18 U.S.C. 1350) (Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002), as no financial statements are being filed with this Amendment.

Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the Original Report and this Amendment does not modify or update disclosures in the Original Report and does not reflect subsequent events occurring after the date of the Original Report. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Report, which continues to speak as of the date of the Original Report, and the Company’s other filings with the SEC. The filing of this Amendment is not an admission that the Original Report, when filed, included any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary to make a statement not misleading.

(C)If the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, constitute an “Acceleration Event” (as such term is defined in the SPAC Merger Agreement), (1) Parent agrees that the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3.10(f) of the SPAC Merger Agreement will apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, (2) the Company Common Stock in respect of the Company Earnout Shares will be issued in accordance with Section 3.10(f) of the SPAC Merger Agreement as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (3) as of the Effective Time, each such share of Company Common Stock will be converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 1.7 of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, such shares of Company Common Stock issued in respect of the Company Earnout Shares, when issued, will be subject to the same exchange procedures as all other shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.7 of this Agreement.

(D)If the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, do not constitute an “Acceleration Event” (as such term is defined in the


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

SPAC Merger Agreement), each Company Earnout Share that is subject to issuance as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, an “Assumed Company Earnout Share”) shall, as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to represent a right to acquire shares of Company Common Stock and shall be assumed by Parent and converted automatically into a right to receive Parent Common Stock (each, a “Parent Earnout Share”) on the same terms and conditions as applied to such Assumed Company Earnout Share immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (1) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each Assumed Company Earnout Share shall be equal to the product of (x) the number of whole shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Assumed Company Earnout Share immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) the Exchange Ratio, and rounding such product down to the nearest whole share; and (2) the threshold closing share prices of the Company Common Stock applicable to such Assumed Company Earnout Shares shall be adjusted to threshold closing share prices of Parent Common Stock determined by dividing (x) the threshold closing share prices of the Company Common Stock applicable to such Assumed Company Earnout Shares as of immediately prior to the Effective Time by (y) the Exchange Ratio, and rounding such quotient up to the nearest whole cent.

(v)Company Earnout Acquiror RSUs.

(C)If the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, constitute an “Acceleration Event” (as such term is defined in the SPAC Merger Agreement), (1) Parent agrees that the terms and conditions set forth in Section 3.04(e) of the SPAC Merger Agreement will apply to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, and (2) as of the Effective Time, each Company Earnout Acquiror RSU shall immediately vest, be cancelled and be converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Parent Common Stock equal to the product of (1) the number of vested shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Earnout Acquiror RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time and (2) the Exchange Ratio, less applicable Tax withholding, payable promptly following the Effective Time; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any payment pursuant to this Section 1.5(b)(v)(A) in respect of any such Company Earnout Acquiror RSU which constitutes “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A shall be made on the earliest possible date that such payment would not trigger a tax or penalty under Section 409A.

(D)If the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, do not constitute an “Acceleration Event” (as such term is defined in the SPAC Merger Agreement), each Company Earnout Acquiror RSU that is issued and outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, an “Assumed Company Earnout Acquiror RSU”) shall, as of the Effective Time, automatically and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to represent a right to acquire shares of Company Common Stock and shall be assumed by Parent and converted automatically into a right to receive Parent Common Stock (each, a “Parent Earnout Acquiror RSU”) on the same terms and conditions (including applicable vesting provisions) as applied to such Assumed Company Earnout Acquiror RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (1) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each Assumed Company Earnout Acquiror RSU shall be equal to the product of (x) the number of whole shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Assumed Company Earnout Acquiror RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time and (y) the Exchange Ratio, and rounding such product down to the nearest whole share; and (2) the threshold closing share prices of the Company Common Stock applicable to such Assumed Company Earnout Acquiror RSU shall be adjusted to threshold closing share prices of Parent Common Stock determined by dividing (x) the threshold closing share prices of the Company Common Stock applicable to such Assumed Company Earnout Acquiror RSU as of immediately prior to the Effective Time by (y) the Exchange Ratio, and rounding such quotient up to the nearest whole cent.


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

(vi)Company Warrants. At the Effective Time, each Company Warrant shall, automatically and without any required action on the part of the holder thereof, cease to represent a Company Warrant in respect of Company Common Stock and shall be assumed by Parent and converted into a warrant denominated in shares of Parent Common Stock (each, a “Parent Warrant”). The number of shares of Parent Common Stock subject to each such Parent Warrant shall be equal to the product (rounded to the nearest whole number) of (x) the number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (y) the Exchange Ratio, and the exercise price of each such Parent Warrant shall be equal to the quotient of (1) the per share exercise price of such Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time divided by (2) the Exchange Ratio, which quotient shall be rounded to the nearest whole cent. Except as expressly provided above, following the Effective Time, each such Parent Warrant shall continue to be governed by the same terms and conditions (including vesting terms) as were applicable to the applicable Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(vii)At the Effective Time, Parent shall assume the Company Equity Plans (under which the Parent RSU Awards and Parent Stock Options contemplated by this Section 1.5(b) shall be issued), and the shares of Company Common Stock reserved for issuance thereunder shall be converted to that number of shares of Parent Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Company Common Stock available for issuance as of immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Exchange Ratio. Prior to the Effective Time, the Board of Directors of the Company or the appropriate committee thereof shall adopt resolutions providing for the treatment of the Company RSU Awards, the Company PSU Awards and the Company Stock Options (collectively, the “Company Equity Awards”) as contemplated by this Section 1.5(b).

(a)No Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, no certificates or scrip representing a fractional share of Parent Common Stock will be issued pursuant to this Section 1.5 in connection with payment of the Merger Consideration, and to the extent a fractional share of Parent Common Stock is issuable as part of the Merger Consideration after aggregating all fractional shares of Parent Common Stock that otherwise would be received by such Person pursuant to this Section 1.5, such fraction shall be rounded up to one whole share of Parent Common Stock.

(b)Certain Adjustments. If, during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and ending at the Effective Time, the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock or Parent Common Stock are changed into a different number or class of shares by reason of any stock split, division or subdivision of shares, stock dividend, reverse stock split, consolidation of shares, reclassification, recapitalization or other similar transaction, or if a stock dividend is declared by the Company or Parent, as applicable during such period, or a record date with respect to any such event shall occur during such period, then the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted to the extent appropriate. Nothing in this Section 1.5(d) shall be construed to permit any Party to take any action that is otherwise prohibited or restricted by any other provision of this Agreement.

1.1Closing of the Company’s Transfer Books. At the Effective Time: (a) all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and all holders of certificates representing shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each such certificate, a “Company Stock Certificate”) or uncertificated shares of Company Common Stock represented by book entry (each such share, an “Uncertificated Share”) shall cease to have any rights as stockholders of the Company; and (b) the stock transfer books of the Company shall be closed with respect to all shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. No further transfer of any such shares of Company


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

Common Stock shall be made on such stock transfer books after the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, a valid Company Stock Certificate or Uncertificated Share is presented to the Exchange Agent or to the Surviving Corporation or Parent, such Company Stock Certificate or Uncertificated Share shall be canceled and shall be exchanged as provided in Section 1.7.

1.2Exchange of Certificates.

(c)Exchange Agent; Exchange Fund. Prior to the Closing, Parent shall enter into an exchange agreement (which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Company) with the transfer agent of Parent (or, at Parent’s election, such other nationally recognized financial institution or trust company designated by Parent and reasonably acceptable to the Company) (the “Exchange Agent”) for the payment of the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 1.5. Prior to or substantially concurrently with the Effective time, Parent shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Exchange Agent, for exchange in accordance with this Section 1 through the Exchange Agent, book-entry shares representing the full number of whole shares of Parent Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 1.5 in exchange for outstanding shares of Company Common Stock, and Parent shall, after the Effective Time on the appropriate payment date, if applicable, provide or cause to be provided to the Exchange Agent any dividends or other distributions payable on such shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 1.7(c) (such shares of Parent Common Stock provided to the Exchange Agent, together with any such dividends or other distributions with respect thereto, the “Exchange Fund”).

(d)Exchange Procedures.

(i)Company Stock Certificates. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver to each holder of record of a Company Stock Certificate (i) a notice advising such holder of the effectiveness of the Merger, (ii) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery of Company Stock Certificates shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Company Stock Certificates shall pass only upon proper delivery of the Company Stock Certificates (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) to the Exchange Agent, and which shall be in the form and have such other provisions as are reasonably acceptable to Parent) and (iii) instructions (which instructions shall be in the form and have such other provisions as are reasonably acceptable to Parent) for use in effecting the surrender of the Company Stock Certificates in exchange for (A) the number of shares of Parent Common Stock (which shall be in book-entry form) representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares that such holder has the right to receive in respect of such Company Stock Certificates pursuant to Section 1.5 and (B) any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 1.7(c).

(ii)Non-DTC Uncertificated Shares. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the Exchange Agent to deliver to each holder of Uncertificated Shares not held through DTC (i) a notice advising such holders of the effectiveness of the Merger, (ii) a statement reflecting the number of shares of Parent Common Stock (which shall be in book-entry form) representing, in the aggregate, the whole number of shares that such holder has the right to receive in respect of such Uncertificated Shares pursuant to Section 1.5 and (B) to the extent any dividends or other distributions are payable pursuant to Section 1.7(c), a check for such amount.

(iii)DTC Uncertificated Shares. With respect to Uncertificated Shares held through DTC, Parent and the Company shall cooperate to establish procedures with the Exchange Agent and DTC to ensure that the Exchange Agent will transmit to DTC or its nominees as soon as reasonably practicable on or after the Closing Date, upon surrender of Uncertificated Shares held of record by DTC or its nominees in accordance with DTC’s


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

customary surrender procedures, the Merger Consideration and, to the extent any dividends or other distributions are payable pursuant to Section 1.7(c), cash for such amount.

(iv)Certain Transfers of Ownership. With respect to Company Stock Certificates, if payment of the Merger Consideration and any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 1.7(c) is to be made to a Person other than the record holder of such Company Stock Certificate, it shall be a condition of payment that shares so surrendered shall be properly endorsed or shall be otherwise in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such payment shall have paid any transfer and other Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of such shares surrendered or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Taxes either have been paid or are not applicable. With respect to Uncertificated Shares, payment of the Merger Consideration and any dividends or other distributions pursuant to Section 1.7(c) shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Uncertificated Shares are registered in the stock transfer books of the Company as of the Effective Time. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 1.7(b)(iv), each Company Stock Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such surrender the Merger Consideration payable in respect of such shares of Company Common Stock and any dividends or other distributions to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 1.7(c).

(e)Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. Subject to Applicable Law, there shall be paid to the holders of the Parent Common Stock issued in exchange for Company Stock Certificates or Uncertificated Shares pursuant to Section 1.7(b), without interest, (i) at the time of delivery of such Parent Common Stock by the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 1.7(b), the amount of dividends or other distributions, if any, with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions, if any, with a record date after the Effective Time, but prior to such delivery of such Parent Common Stock by the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 1.7(b), and a payment date subsequent to such delivery of such Parent Common Stock by the Exchange Agent pursuant to Section 1.7(b), payable with respect to such shares of Parent Common Stock.

(f)Lost Certificates. If any Company Stock Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, then upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or the Exchange Agent, the posting by such person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as Parent may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Company Stock Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Company Stock Certificate the Merger Consideration to which the holder thereof is entitled pursuant to this Section 1.

(g)Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund which remains undistributed to the holders of the Company Stock Certificates or Uncertificated Shares for one (1) year after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent or its designee upon demand, and any such holders prior to the Merger who have not theretofore complied with this Section 1 shall thereafter look only to Parent as general creditor thereof for payment of their claims for Merger Consideration and any dividends or distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock as contemplated by Section 1.7(c).

(h)No Liability. None of Parent, Merger Sub, the Company or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any shares of Parent Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash held in the Exchange Fund delivered to a Governmental Authority pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Company Stock Certificate shall not have been surrendered or Uncertificated Share not


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

paid, in each case, in accordance with Section 1.7(b), immediately prior to the date on which any Merger Consideration in respect of such Company Stock Certificate or Uncertificated Share would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority, any such Merger Consideration in respect of such Company Stock Certificate or Uncertificated Share shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, become the property of Parent free and clear of all claims or interest of any person previously entitled thereto.

(i)Withholding Rights. Each of Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any amounts otherwise payable pursuant to this Agreement to any person such amounts as are required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under the Code or any provision of Applicable Law. Any amounts so withheld shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

1.3Further Action. If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is determined by Parent or the Surviving Corporation to be necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession of and to all rights and property of Merger Sub and the Company, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall be fully authorized (in the name of Merger Sub, in the name of the Company and otherwise) to take such action.

1.4No Dissenters’ Rights. In accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, no appraisal rights shall be available with respect to the Merger or other Contemplated Transactions.

1.5Tax Treatment. The Company, Parent, the Surviving Corporation and Merger Sub intend that the Merger be a reorganization described in section 368(a) of the Code occurring pursuant to a plan of reorganization within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 1.368-1 and each of the Company, Parent, the Surviving Corporation and Merger Sub shall not take and position on any Tax Return inconsistent with this characterization.

1.6Closing Statements.

(j)No later than the close of business of the fifth (5th) Business Day preceding the day on which Closing shall occur pursuant to Section 1.3, the Company shall provide to Parent a written statement, signed by an executive officer of the Company (the “Company Closing Statement”), setting forth the Company’s good faith estimate, together with related supporting calculations and work papers and back-up materials relating thereto, of the Company Cash Amount. The Company shall provide Parent and its Representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the relevant books, records and finance personnel of the Company to enable Parent and its Representatives to review and analyze the Company Closing Statement and the components thereof. If requested by Parent, the Parties shall meet and confer regarding the Company Closing Statement and the components thereof no later than the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the day on which Closing shall occur pursuant to Section 1.3, and shall make such changes thereto as the Parties may mutually and in good faith agree, and the Company Cash Amount as so mutually agreed in writing shall be final and binding on the Parties for all purposes of this Agreement. If there is a dispute between the Parties regarding the Company Closing Statement or the Company Cash Amount that is not resolved as of such date of meeting, and the resolution of such dispute is required to determine whether the Company Cash Amount is less than the Company Minimum Cash Amount, then any such disputed items shall be referred to Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited, or in the event that such firm declines to serve in such capacity, an independent auditor of recognized national standing jointly selected by Parent and the Company (the “Accounting Firm”), each Party acting reasonably and as quickly as possible, time being of the essence. The Parties shall promptly


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

deliver to the Accounting Firm the work papers and back-up materials used in preparing the relevant Company Closing Statement and any remaining disputes with respect thereto, and the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to make its determination as soon as possible and within seven (7) calendar days of accepting its selection at the latest. The Parties shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accounting Firm any material related to the unresolved disputes and to discuss the issues with the Accounting Firm; provided, however, that no such presentation or discussion shall occur without the presence of a representative of the other Party. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be limited to the items in dispute submitted to the Accounting Firm and limited to applying the definition of Company Cash Amount as set forth herein. Any determination of the Company Cash Amount made by the Accounting Firm shall be made in writing, delivered to each of the Parties, and shall be final and binding on the Parties hereto and shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent the Company Cash Amount and Company Closing Statement, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement.

(k)No later than the close of business of the fifth (5th) Business Day preceding the day on which Closing shall occur pursuant to Section 1.3, Parent shall provide to the Company a written statement, signed by an executive officer of Parent (the “Parent Closing Statement”), setting forth Parent’s good faith estimate, together with related supporting calculations and work papers and back-up materials relating thereto, of the Parent Cash Amount. Parent shall provide the Company and its Representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the relevant books, records and finance personnel of Parent to enable the Company and its Representatives to review and analyze the Parent Closing Statement and the components thereof. If requested by the Company, the Parties shall meet and confer regarding the Parent Closing Statement and the components thereof no later than the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the day on which Closing shall occur pursuant to Section 1.3, and shall make such changes thereto as the Parties may mutually and in good faith agree, and the Parent Cash Amount as so mutually agreed in writing shall be final and binding on the Parties for all purposes of this Agreement. If there is a dispute between the Parties regarding the Parent Closing Statement or the Parent Cash Amount that is not resolved as of such date of meeting, and the resolution of such dispute is required to determine whether the Parent Cash Amount is less than the Parent Minimum Cash Amount, then any such disputed items shall be referred to the Accounting Firm, each Party acting reasonably and as quickly as possible, time being of the essence. The Parties shall promptly deliver to the Accounting Firm the work papers and back-up materials used in preparing the relevant Parent Closing Statement and any remaining disputes with respect thereto, and the Parties shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Accounting Firm to make its determination as soon as possible and within seven (7) calendar days of accepting its selection at the latest. The Parties shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Accounting Firm any material related to the unresolved disputes and to discuss the issues with the Accounting Firm; provided, however, that no such presentation or discussion shall occur without the presence of a representative of the other Party. The determination of the Accounting Firm shall be limited to the items in dispute submitted to the Accounting Firm and limited to applying the definition of Parent Cash Amount as set forth herein. Any determination of the Parent Cash Amount made by the Accounting Firm shall be made in writing, delivered to each of the Parties, and shall be final and binding on the Parties hereto and shall be deemed to have been finally determined for purposes of this Agreement and to represent the Parent Cash Amount and Parent Closing Statement, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement.

(l)The parties shall delay the Closing until the final and binding determination of the Company Cash Amount and the Parent Cash Amount in accordance with the provisions of this Section 1.11 and Closing shall occur promptly thereafter in accordance with Section 1.3. The fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be allocated between the Parties in the same proportion that the disputed amount of the Company Cash Amount or Parent Cash Amount, as applicable, that was unsuccessfully disputed by such Party (as finally


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

determined by the Accounting Firm) bears to the total disputed amount of the Company Cash Amount or Parent Cash Amount, as applicable. If the dispute resolution procedures involving the Accounting Firm pursuant to this Section 1.11 apply, upon resolution of the matter in accordance with this Section 1.11, the Parties shall not be required to determine the Company Cash Amount or Parent Cash Amount again even though the Closing Date may occur later than the originally contemplated Closing Date.

(iv)if: (A) there shall arise after the date of this Agreement a material event, material development or change in circumstances that relates to and is material to Parent and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole (but does not relate to any Acquisition Proposal) that was not known, and would not reasonably be expected to have been known or foreseen, by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries on the date of this Agreement (or if known, the consequences of which were not known, and would not reasonably be expected to have been known or foreseen, by Parent or any of its Subsidiaries as of the date of this Agreement), which event, development or change in circumstance, or any material consequence thereof, becomes known to Parent or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the approval of the Parent Common Stock Issuance by the Required Parent Stockholder Vote and did not result from or arise out of the announcement or pendency of, or any action required to be taken (or to be refrained from being taken) pursuant to, this Agreement (any such material event, material development or material change in circumstances being referred to as a “Parent Change in Circumstances”);; (B) Parent’s board of directors determines in good faith, after having taken into account the advice of an independent financial advisor and the advice of Parent’s outside legal counsel, that, in light of such Parent Change in Circumstances, the failure to withdraw or modify the Parent Board Recommendation would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Parent’s board of director’s fiduciary obligations under Applicable Law; (C) no less than four (4) Business Days prior to withdrawing or modifying the Parent Board Recommendation, Parent’s board of directors delivers to the Company a written notice describing in reasonable detail the Parent Change in Circumstances, stating that it intends to withdraw or modify the Parent Board Recommendation in light of such Parent Change in Circumstances and describing any intended modification of the Parent Board Recommendation; (D) throughout such four (4) Business Day period, Parent engages (to the extent requested by the Company) in good faith negotiations with the Company to amend this Agreement in such a manner that the failure to withdraw or modify the Parent Board Recommendation would not reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Parent’s board of director’s fiduciary obligations under Applicable Law in light of such Parent Change in Circumstances; and (E) at the time of withdrawing or modifying the Parent Board Recommendation, Parent’s board of directors determines in good faith, after taking into account the advice of an independent financial advisor and the advice of Parent’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to withdraw or modify the Parent Board Recommendation would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with Parent’s board of director’s fiduciary obligations under Applicable Law; provided, however, that when making such determination, Parent’s board of directors shall be obligated to consider any changes to the terms of this Agreement proposed by the Company as a result of the negotiations required by clause (D) above or otherwise.

For purposes of clause (i) of the first sentence of this Section 5.3(d), any change in the form or amount of the consideration payable (including any modification in any proposed dividend payable in connection therewith) in connection with a Parent Superior Offer, and any other


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

material change to any of the terms of a Parent Superior Offer, will be deemed to be a new Parent Superior Offer, requiring a new Parent Recommendation Change Notice and a new advance notice period; provided, however, that, in each case, the advance notice and negotiation period applicable to any such change to a Parent Superior Offer pursuant to clauses (i)(C) and (i)(D) of the first sentence of this Section 5.3(d) shall be two (2) Business Days rather than four (4) Business Days.

(l)Subject to Parent’s right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.1(k), Parent’s obligation to call, give notice of and hold the Parent Stockholders Meeting in accordance with Section 5.3(a) shall not be limited or otherwise affected by the making, commencement, disclosure, announcement or submission of any Parent Superior Offer or other Acquisition Proposal, by any Change in Circumstances or by any withdrawal or modification of the Parent Board Recommendation. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent agrees that unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 8.1, Parent shall not submit any Acquisition Proposal to a vote of its stockholders.

Nothing contained in this Section 5.3 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall prohibit Parent from (i) taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14d-9 or Rule 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or (ii) making any disclosure to its stockholders if Parent’s board of directors determines in good faith, after having taken into account the advice of Parent’s outside legal counsel, that the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with the Parent’s board of director’s fiduciary obligations under Applicable Law; provided, however, that this Section 5.3 shall not be deemed to permit Parent’s board of directors to withdraw or modify the Parent Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to the Company or take any of the actions referred to in Section 5.3(c) except, in the case of a withdrawal or modification of the Parent Board Recommendation, to the extent permitted by Section 5.3(d); provided, further, that in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, any such disclosure, other than a “stop, look and listen” communication or similar communication of the type contemplated by Section 14d-9(f) of the Exchange Act, shall be deemed to be a withdrawal or modification of the Parent Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to the Company unless Parent’s board of directors publicly and unanimously reaffirms the Parent Board Recommendation in such disclosure.

1.10Employee Benefits.

(m)If requested by Parent in writing at least five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall take (or cause to be taken) all actions necessary or appropriate to terminate, effective no later than the day prior to the date on which the Merger becomes effective, any Company Employee Plan that contains a cash or deferred arrangement intended to qualify under Section 401(k) of the Code (a “Company 401(k) Plan”). If the Company is required to terminate any Company 401(k) Plan, then the Company shall provide to Parent prior to the Closing Date written evidence of the adoption by the Company’s board of directors of resolutions authorizing the termination of such Company 401(k) Plan (the form and substance of which shall be subject to the prior review and comment of Parent, which comments shall be considered in good faith), effective no later than the day prior to the date on which the Merger becomes effective. The Company shall also consider in good faith taking such other actions in furtherance of terminating such Company 401(k) Plan as Parent may reasonably request. If the distributions of assets from the trust of any Company 401(k) Plan that is terminated pursuant to this Section 5.4(a) are reasonably anticipated to cause or result in liquidation charges, surrender charges or other fees to be imposed upon the account of any participant or beneficiary of such Company 401(k) Plan or upon the Company or any participating employer, then the Company shall take such actions as are necessary to estimate the amount of such charges or other fees and provide its estimate of that amount in writing to Parent at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date. Parent may request in writing at least


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date that any other Company Employee Plan that is a health or welfare benefit plan be terminated prior to the Effective Time, and if Parent makes such request to the Company, the Company shall take such actions described in this Section 5.4(a) with respect to such Company Employee Plan, other than those described in the immediately preceding sentence. Parent shall take all commercially reasonable steps necessary to permit each eligible Continuing Employee who has received an eligible rollover distribution (as defined in Section 402(c)(4) of the Code) from the Company 401(k) Plan, if any, to roll such eligible rollover distribution (including any associated plan loans) into an account under a defined contribution plan sponsored by Parent or any of its Affiliates (the “Parent 401(k) Plan”), in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Parent 401(k) Plan and the Code.

(n)To the extent any employee notification or consultation requirements are imposed by Applicable Laws with respect to the Contemplated Transactions, the Company shall consult with Parent and shall ensure that such notification or consultation requirements are complied with prior to the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, none of the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Affiliates shall communicate with continuing employees regarding post-Closing employment matters, including post-Closing employee benefits and compensation or other compensation or benefits matters related to or impacted by any of the Contemplated Transactions (whether alone or in combination with additional events), including the matters described in this Section 5.4, without the prior written approval of Parent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Prior to the Effective Time, neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall communicate with continuing employees regarding post-Closing employment matters, including post-Closing employee benefits and compensation or other compensation or benefits matters related to or impacted by any of the Contemplated Transactions (whether alone or in combination with additional events), including the matters described in this Section 5.4, without the prior written approval of Company, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent retains the right, in its sole and absolute discretion after discussions with the Company, to approve or reject any tentative agreements reached in connection with notification or consultation requirements.

(o)For a period of twelve (12) months following the Closing Date (the “Continuation Period”), Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, provide each individual who is an employee of any Acquired Company immediately prior to the Closing (each, a “Continuing Employee”) for so long as they continue to be employed by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or their Subsidiaries during such twelve (12) month period with annual base salary or wages, bonus opportunities, equity-based incentive compensation opportunities and other employee benefits that are, in the aggregate, substantially equivalent to those provided to similarly situated employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries (other than the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries) under the applicable benefit plans, programs, policies, agreements and arrangements of Parent and its Subsidiaries (other than the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries). Without limiting the foregoing, Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, provide severance benefits to Continuing Employees whose employment is terminated in the Continuation Period that are no less favorable than the severance benefits that would provided to similarly situated employees of Parent and its Subsidiaries (other than the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries).

(p)Each Continuing Employee shall receive service credit for service accrued or deemed accrued or deemed accrued on or prior to the Effective Time for purposes of each Parent Employee Plan providing severance and vacation/paid-time off benefits under which each Continuing Employee may be eligible to participate on or after the Effective Time to the same extent recognized by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under comparable Company Employee Plans immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that such crediting of service shall not operate to duplicate any benefit or the funding of any such benefit for the same period of service.


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

(q)Nothing in this Section 5.4 or elsewhere in this Agreement shall: (i) be construed to create a right in any employee of the Acquired Companies to employment with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other Subsidiary of Parent; (ii) be deemed to establish, amend, modify or cause to be adopted any Company Employee Plan or any other benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement maintained or sponsored by Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates; or (iii) limit the ability of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Affiliates from establishing, amending, modifying or terminating any benefit plan, program, agreement or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them, in each case, following the Effective Time.

1.10Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

(r)For a period of not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation or any applicable Subsidiary thereof (collectively, the “D&O Indemnifying Parties”), to the fullest extent each such D&O Indemnifying Party is authorized or permitted by Applicable Law, to: (i) indemnify and hold harmless each person who is at the date of this Agreement, was previously, or during the period from the date of this Agreement through the date of the Effective Time will be, serving as a director or officer of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or, at the request or for the benefit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as a director, trustee or officer of any other entity or any benefit plan maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “D&O Indemnified Parties”), as now or hereafter in effect, in connection with any D&O Claim and any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, Claim Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any thereof) relating to or resulting from such D&O Claim; and (ii) promptly advance to such D&O Indemnified Party any Claim Expenses incurred in defending, serving as a witness with respect to or otherwise participating with respect to any D&O Claim in advance of the final disposition of such D&O Claim, including payment on behalf of or advancement to the D&O Indemnified Party of any Claim Expenses incurred by such D&O Indemnified Party in connection with enforcing any rights with respect to such indemnification and/or advancement, in each case without the requirement of any bond or other security, but subject to the D&O Indemnifying Party’s receipt of a written undertaking by or on behalf of such D&O Indemnified Party to repay such Claim Expenses if it is ultimately determined under Applicable Law that such D&O Indemnified Party is not entitled to be indemnified. All rights to indemnification and advancement conferred hereunder shall continue as to a Person who has ceased to be a director, officer or employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries after the date of this Agreement and shall inure to the benefit of such Person’s heirs, successors, executors and personal and legal representatives. As used in this Section 5.5: (x) the term “D&O Claim” means any threatened, asserted, pending or completed claim, action, suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation, whether instituted by any party hereto, any Governmental Authority or any other Person, whether civil, criminal, administrative, investigative or other, including any arbitration or other alternative dispute resolution mechanism, arising out of or pertaining to matters that relate to such D&O Indemnified Party’s duties or service (A) as a director, officer or employee of the Company or the applicable Subsidiary thereof at or prior to the Effective Time (including with respect to any acts, facts, events or omissions occurring in connection with the approval of this Agreement, the Merger or the consummation of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the consideration and approval thereof and the process undertaken in connection therewith and any D&O Claim relating thereto) or (B) as a director, trustee, officer or employee of any other entity or any benefit plan maintained by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (for which such D&O Indemnified Party is or was serving at the request or for the benefit of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) at or prior to the Effective Time; and (y) the term “Claim Expenses” means reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses and obligations (including


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

experts’ fees, travel expenses, court costs, retainers, transcript fees, legal research, duplicating, printing and binding costs, as well as telecommunications, postage and courier charges) paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending, being a witness in or participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to investigate, defend, be a witness in or participate in (including on appeal) any D&O Claim for which indemnification is authorized pursuant to this Section 5.5(a), including any action relating to a claim for indemnification or advancement brought by a D&O Indemnified Party. No D&O Indemnifying Party shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any actual or threatened D&O Claim in respect of which indemnification has been sought by such D&O Indemnified Party hereunder unless such settlement, compromise or judgment includes an unconditional release of such D&O Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such D&O Claim, or such D&O Indemnified Party consents thereto.

(s)Without limiting the foregoing, Parent agrees that all rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and exculpation from liabilities for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing in favor of the current or former directors, officers or employees of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries as provided in the Company organizational documents, similar organizational documents of the Company’s Subsidiaries and indemnification agreements of the Company and its Subsidiaries shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms to the extent they are enforceable under Applicable Law. For a period of not less than six (6) years from the Effective Time, Parent shall cause the organizational documents of the Surviving Corporation to contain provisions no less favorable with respect to indemnification, advancement of expenses and limitations on liability of directors and officers than are set forth in the Company organizational documents, which provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of at least six (6) years from the Effective Time in any manner that would affect adversely the rights thereunder of individuals who, at or prior to the Effective Time, were directors, officers or employees of the Company. The Company may purchase (and pay in full the aggregate premium for) a six-year prepaid “tail” insurance policy (which policy by its express terms shall survive the Merger) of at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions that are no less favorable to the covered individuals as the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policy or policies with a claims period of six (6) years from the Effective Time for D&O Claims arising from facts, acts, events or omissions that occurred on or prior to the Effective Time; provided that in the event the aggregate costs, premium and expenses of such tail insurance policy are in excess of $3,600,000.00, the Company shall not purchase such policy absent the consent of Parent. If the Company fails to obtain such tail policy prior to the Effective Time, Parent or the Surviving Corporation shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such a tail policy; provided that Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall in no event be obligated to purchase such policy if the aggregate costs, premium and expenses of such tail insurance policy are in excess of $3,600,000.00. Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall cause any such policy (whether obtained by Parent, the Company or the Surviving Corporation) to be maintained in full force and effect, for its full term, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to honor all its obligations thereunder.

(t)If any of Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges with or into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving company, partnership or other Person of such consolidation or merger or (ii) liquidates, dissolves or winds-up, or transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision shall be made so that the successors and assigns of Parent or the Surviving Corporation, as applicable, assume the obligations set forth in this Section 5.5.

3089529.v7

1.13Reasonable Best Efforts; Consultation and Notice.

(v)In the event that the aggregate Merger Consideration exceeds an HSR Act threshold set forth in either 15 USC §§ 18a(a)(2)(A) or (B), as determined by 16 C.F.R. § 801.10(c)(1)(ii), and subject to the terms and conditions herein provided and without limiting the foregoing, the Company and Parent shall (i) promptly, and in any event no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after a determination has been made that such threshold has been exceeded, make all required filings of Notification and Report Forms pursuant to the HSR Act, including cooperating with each other and sharing information as needed to make those filings (ii) as promptly as practicable make any required filings under the Antitrust Laws of any other jurisdiction, where such filings may be in draft form in jurisdictions in which that is the customary practice, (iii) use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with each other in (A) determining whether any filings are required to be made with, or actions or nonactions, waivers, authorizations, expirations or terminations of waiting periods, clearances, consents or approvals are required to be obtained from, any other Governmental Authorities (including any foreign jurisdiction in which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries are operating any business) or third parties in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions and (B) timely making all such filings and timely seeking all such actions or nonactions, waivers, authorizations, expirations or terminations of waiting periods, clearances, consents and approvals, (iv) supply as promptly as practicable such information or documentation that may be requested pursuant to any Antitrust Law by any Governmental Authority, and (v) use reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all other actions and do, or cause to be done, all other things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective the Contemplated Transactions.

The Parties may, as they deem advisable and necessary, designate any competitively sensitive materials provided to the other Parties under this Section 5.6(b) as “outside counsel only.” Such materials and the information contained therein shall be given only to outside counsel and outside economic consultants of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel or outside economic consultants to employees, officers, or directors of the recipient without the advance written consent of the Party providing such materials.


US-LEGAL-11446530/6 174293-0017

3089529.v7

(x)The Company and Parent may jointly determine that the taking of such action would enhance the likelihood of obtaining any necessary clearance under the Antitrust Laws by the Outside Date, extend any waiting period or agree to refile under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law.

(y)The Company and Parent shall respond as promptly as practicable under the circumstances to any inquiries received from any Governmental Authority or any other authority enforcing applicable Antitrust Laws for additional information or documentation in connection with that review.

Parent and the Company (a) shall consult with each other before making, and give each other a reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon, any press release or other public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Merger or any of the other Contemplated Transactions, and (b) shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement that is inconsistent with the initial press release or other communication that has previously been agreed between the Parties without the other Party’s concurrence, except as may be required by Applicable Laws, court process or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange and except as permitted by Sections 4.4 or 4.5.

1.12Resignation of Officers and Directors. Unless otherwise directed by Parent, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and deliver to Parent at or prior to the Effective Time (or, at the option of Parent, at a later date) the resignation of each officer and director of each of the Acquired Companies, effective as of the Effective Time (it being understood that such resignation shall not constitute a voluntary termination of employment under any Company Employee Agreement or Company Employee Plan applicable to such individual’s status as an officer or director of an Acquired Company).

1.13Delisting. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall cooperate with Parent and use its reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and do or cause to be done all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable on its part under Applicable Laws to enable the de-listing by the Surviving Corporation of the Company Common Stock and Company Warrants from Nasdaq and the deregistration of the Company Common Stock and Company Warrants under the Exchange Act as promptly as practicable after the Effective Time, and in any event no more than two (2) Business Days after the Closing Date.

Re: Amended and Restated Sponsor Letter Agreement

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter (this “Sponsor Letter Agreement”) is being delivered to you in accordance with that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of the date hereof (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Shift Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Shift Remarketing Operations, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), and CarLotz, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and hereby amends and restates in its entirety that certain letter dated October 21, 2020 (the “Prior Letter Agreement”), from Acamar Partners Sponsor I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”) to the Company and CarLotz Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“CarLotz OpCo”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 9 hereof. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement (and subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein), Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company surviving the merger (the “Merger”).

The Sponsor is currently, and as of immediately prior to the Closing will be, the record and beneficial owner of 3,819,665 shares of Company Common Stock that are subject to restrictions on Transfer set forth in the Prior Letter Agreement (the “Restricted Founder Shares”), which Restricted Founder Shares shall be exchanged for shares of Parent Common Stock issued as Merger Consideration in connection with the Closing of the Merger (any shares of Parent Common Stock issued in respect of the Restricted Founder Shares, and any shares issued in respect thereof including by means of or as a result of a stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization, combination, reclassification, exchange or change of such shares, or upon exercise or conversion of any such securities, the “Restricted Parent Shares”).

In accordance with paragraph 2 and paragraph 20 of the Prior Letter Agreement, the Parties hereto intend to amend and restate the Prior Letter Agreement to give effect to the Merger, and, intending to be legally bound, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Sponsor hereby agrees with the Company, Parent, Merger Sub and CarLotz OpCo as follows:

1. The Sponsor hereby agrees and acknowledges that (i) the Company, Parent and Merger Sub would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by the Sponsor of its obligations under paragraphs 2 and 4 of this Sponsor Letter Agreement, (ii) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (iii) the non-breaching party shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of such breach.

C-1

2. The Sponsor agrees that it shall not Transfer any Restricted Parent Shares until (collectively, the “Lock-up Period”):

Section 1.with respect to 50% of such Restricted Parent Shares, the date on which the closing trading price of the Parent Common Stock has been greater than a per-share amount equal to $12.50, divided by the Exchange Ratio (in each case, as equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, special cash dividends, reorganizations, combinations, recapitalizations and similar transactions affecting the Parent Common Stock) over any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) Trading Day period from the Closing of the Merger; and

Section 2.with respect to 50% of such Restricted Parent Shares, the date on which the closing trading price of the Parent Common Stock has been greater than a per-share amount equal to $15.00, divided by the Exchange Ratio (in each case, as equitably adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, special cash dividends, reorganizations, combinations, recapitalizations and similar transactions affecting the Parent Common Stock) over any twenty (20) Trading Days within any thirty (30) Trading Day period from the Closing of the Merger(the date on which such condition is satisfied the “Final Release Date”).

3. The certificates evidencing the Restricted Parent Shares shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED HEREIN ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AND CERTAIN OTHER AGREEMENTS, SET FORTH IN THE AMENDED AND RESTATED SPONSOR LETTER AGREEMENT DATED AS OF AUGUST 9, 2022, BY AND AMONG THE HOLDER HEREOF AND THE OTHER PARTIES THERETO.

4. Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in paragraph 2, Transfers of the Restricted Parent Shares that are held by the Sponsor or any of its permitted transferees (that have complied with this paragraph 4) are permitted (a) to Parent’s officers or directors, any affiliates and its employees or family member of any of Parent’s officers or directors, (b) to any members of the Sponsor or any affiliates of the Sponsor; (c) in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of the individual’s immediate family, to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of the individual’s immediate family or an affiliate of such person, or to a charitable organization; (d) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (e) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (f) by private sales transfer made in connection with the consummation of the Merger; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (f) these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement with Parent agreeing to be bound by the transfer restrictions in and other provisions contained in this Agreement.

6. Forfeiture of Restricted Parent Shares. In the event of the failure to achieve the trading price threshold set forth in Section 2(a) on or prior to January 21, 2026 (the first Business Day following the end of such period, the “Forfeiture Date”), or the failure to achieve the trading price threshold set forth in Section 2(b) on or prior to the Forfeiture Date, the portion of the Restricted Parent Shares, the release of the lockup of which is subject to the achievement of the applicable threshold, shall be forfeited and transferred to Parent by the holder that Beneficially Owns such Restricted Parent Shares without any consideration for such Transfer. For the avoidance of doubt, prior to the Forfeiture Date, all of the holders of Restricted Parent Shares shall have the right to vote such shares and to receive dividends with respect to such shares.

8. The Sponsor has full right and power, without violating any agreement to which it is bound (including, without limitation, any non-competition or non-solicitation agreement with any employer or former employer), to enter into this Sponsor Letter Agreement.

In the event of any valid termination of the Merger Agreement, this Sponsor Letter Agreement shall be null and void and of no further force or effect in accordance with Section 16.

B-4
