b.

Conversion. Concurrent with the closing of the Business Combination, any amounts outstanding under this Note (or any portion thereof) will automatically convert into ordinary shares at a conversion price (the “Conversion Price”) equal to $1.00 per share (“Conversion Shares”). The conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of the surrender of this Note and the person or persons entitled to receive the Conversion Shares upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such Conversion Shares as of such date. Each such newly issued Conversion Share shall include a restricted legend that contemplates the same restrictions as the private placement warrants under the Amended and Restated Letter Agreement. For each Conversion Share issued, Perception shall instruct RCF VII SPONSOR LLC to surrender to Maker a corresponding number of ordinary shares. Maker agrees to amend its Registration Rights Agreement dated November 9, 2021 to provide that the Conversion Shares shall be Registrable Securities as defined therein.

 

18.

Transfer of this Note or Securities Issuable on Conversion. With respect to any sale or other disposition of this Note, except as provided in Section 16, or securities into which this Note may be converted, Payee shall give written notice to Maker prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with (i) except for a Permitted Transfer (as defined in the Amended and Restated Letter Agreement), in which case the requirements in this clause (i) shall not apply, a written opinion reasonably satisfactory to Maker in form and substance from counsel reasonably satisfactory to Maker to the effect that such sale or other distribution may be effected without registration or qualification under any federal or state law then in effect and (ii) a written undertaking executed by the desired transferee reasonably satisfactory to Maker in form and substance agreeing to be bound by the restrictions on transfer contained herein. Upon receiving such written notice, reasonably satisfactory opinion, or other evidence, and such written acknowledgement, Maker, as promptly as practicable, shall notify Payee that Payee may sell or otherwise dispose of this Note or such securities, all in accordance with the terms of the note delivered to Maker. If a determination has been made pursuant to this Section 18 that the opinion of counsel for Payee, or other evidence, or the written acknowledgment from the desired transferee, is not reasonably satisfactory to Maker, Maker shall so notify Payee promptly after such determination has been made. Each Note thus transferred shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act, unless in the opinion of counsel for Maker such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance with the Securities Act. Maker may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions. Subject to the foregoing, transfers of this Note shall be registered upon registration on the books maintained for such purpose by or on behalf of Maker. Prior to presentation of this Note for registration of transfer, Maker shall treat the registered holder hereof as the owner and holder of this Note for the purpose of receiving all payments of principal hereon and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not this Note shall be overdue and Maker shall not be affected by notice to the contrary. For purposes hereof “Permitted Transfer” shall have the same meaning as any transfer that would be permitted with respect to the Founder Shares under the Amended and Restated Letter Agreement.

 

 

19.

Covenants and Other Agreements.

 

a.

Maker shall seek Payee’s approval for any expenditure that exceeds the transaction budget provided to Payee from Maker by more than 10% by line item, or in the aggregate, which such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

 

b.

Maker shall use commercially reasonable efforts to inform Payee of its cumulative expenditures within 15 calendar days of the end of each calendar month and provide the Payee with any other information it reasonably requests with respect to the expenditures and operation of the Maker.
