Pursuant to the BCA, the reporting person is also entitled to receive up to 9,094 shares of common stock of the Issuer subject to the following conditions: (i) 50% of such shares vest if, during the period (the "Earnout Period") beginning on the first anniversary of the Business Combination (3/13/2026) and ending on the sixth anniversary of the Business Combination (3/13/2031), the closing sale price of one share as reported on NASDAQ is greater than or equal to $15.00 for a period of at least 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days and (ii) the remaining 50% of such shares vest if, during the Earnout Period, the closing sale price of one share as reported on NASDAQ is greater than or equal to $20.00 for a period of at least 20 out of 30 consecutive trading days.
