combination (as defined in the Existing Memorandum and Articles) on a monthly basis, up to twelve (12) months (or until September

earlier date as shall be determined by the Board in its sole discretion, provided that the Company’s sponsors, officers, directors,
affiliates or designees (collectively, the “Insiders”) lend to the Company (each a “Contribution”) an aggregate

Proposal”); |
