(“Holdings”), a newly-incorporated Delaware corporation, AIRO Group, Inc. a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Holdings (“AIRO Group”), and Aspen Merger Sub, Inc., a newly-incorporated Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub” and together with Target Company, Target Representative and Holdings, each a “Party” and collectively the “Parties”).

WHEREAS, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Parties desire to enter into a transaction in which Holdings will acquire all of Target Company’s equity in exchange for Holdings Common Stock and the assumption of the Indebtedness Assumed through a reverse subsidiary merger (the “Merger”) of Merger Sub with and into Target Company, whereby Target Company will be the Surviving Entity thereof, and Holdings shall be the sole owner of the Surviving Entity after the Merger;

WHEREAS, the Target Company Board has (a) determined that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including, as applicable, the Merger and the other transactions described in this Agreement, are in the best interests of the Target Company and the Target Company Stockholders, (b) approved and declared advisable this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including, as applicable, the Merger and the other transactions described in this Agreement, and (c) resolved to recommend adoption of this Agreement by the Target Company Stockholders in accordance with the Act and all other applicable Laws;

WHEREAS, following the execution of this Agreement, Target Company shall seek to obtain, in accordance with the Act, a written consent of its stockholders approving this Agreement, including, as applicable, the Merger and the other transactions described in this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby in accordance with the Act;

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Merger, Indebtedness Assumed shall continue to be issued and outstanding obligations of the Surviving Entity, which obligations shall be paid in full at the closing of the SPAC Merger;

WHEREAS, immediately prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Target Company had certain Indebtedness Unassumed;

WHEREAS, prior to the Closing, (i) all of the Indebtedness Unassumed with respect to the Target Company’s outstanding secured convertible promissory notes (“Indebtedness Unassumed (Secured)”) shall be contributed to Target Company in exchange for a newly-issued senior preferred equity interest in Target Company (the “Indebtedness Unassumed Conversion (Secured)”); and (ii) all of the other Indebtedness Unassumed including, without limitation, with respect to the Target Company’s outstanding unsecured convertible promissory notes (“Indebtedness Unassumed (Unsecured)” and, together with the Indebtedness Unassumed (Secured), the “Indebtedness Unassumed”) shall be contributed to Target Company in exchange for a newly-issued preferred equity interest in Target Company that is junior to the senior preferred equity interest issued in the Indebtedness Unassumed Conversion (Secured) but senior to all other equity interests in the Company (the “Indebtedness Unassumed Conversion (Unsecured)” and, together with the Indebtedness Unassumed Conversion (Secured), the “Indebtedness Unassumed Conversion”);

WHEREAS, the respective boards of directors of Holdings, AIRO Group and Merger Sub have unanimously (a) determined that this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger, are in the best interests of Holdings, AIRO Group, Merger Sub and their respective stockholders, and (b) approved and declared advisable this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Merger; and

WHEREAS, substantially concurrent with the execution and delivery of this Agreement (unless a different execution timeframe is specifically noted in Annex D), Holdings will be executing and delivering agreements and plans of merger or stock purchase agreements (or any other business combination permitted by such other agreements (collectively, the “Other Business Combination Agreements”)), with other target companies listed on Annex D (the “Other Business Combination Parties”) in the base consideration amounts listed on Annex E (subject to closing adjustments and offsets as set forth in the applicable Other Business Combination Agreements), effecting business combination transactions (each an “Other Business Combination”) on terms and conditions substantially similar to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (except for the aggregate amount of the merger consideration to be paid to the equity owners of such Other Business Combination Parties).

2.4 Effective Time. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement, at the Closing, Target Company, on one hand, and Holdings and Merger Sub, on the other hand, shall cause a certificate of merger or similar document effecting the Merger with respect to Target Company and Merger Sub (the “Certificate of Merger”) to be executed, acknowledged and filed with the applicable offices set forth in Annex C (attached hereto and incorporated herein fully by this reference) in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Act and shall make all other filings or recordings required under the Act. The Merger shall become effective at such time as the Certificate of Merger (or similar document) has been duly filed with the applicable offices set forth in Annex C, or at such later date or time as may be agreed by such Target Company and Holdings in writing and specified in the Certificate of Merger in accordance with the Act (the effective time of the Merger being hereinafter referred to as the “Effective Time”).

2.5 Effects of the Merger. The Merger shall have the effects set forth herein and in the applicable provisions of the Act. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject thereto, from and after the Effective Time, all property, rights, privileges, immunities, powers, franchises, licenses and authority of the Target Company and Merger Sub shall vest in the Surviving Entity, and all debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions and duties of each of the Target Company and Merger Sub shall become the debts, liabilities, obligations, restrictions and duties of the Surviving Entity.

2.6 Certificate of Incorporation; By-laws. At the Effective Time, (a) the certificate of incorporation or certificate of formation, as applicable, of the Target Company as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the certificate of incorporation or certificate of formation, as applicable of the Surviving Entity until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof or as provided by applicable Law, and (b) the by-laws of the Target Company as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be the by-laws of the Surviving Entity until thereafter amended in accordance with the terms thereof, the certificate of incorporation or certificate of formation, as applicable, of such Surviving Entity or as provided by applicable Law. Additionally, in each case, that the name of the corporation or company set forth therein shall be changed to the name of the Target Company.

2.7 Directors, Managers and Officers. The directors, managers and officers of the Target Company, in each case, as appropriate, immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, from and after the Effective Time, be the directors, managers and officers, respectively, of the Surviving Entity until their successors have been duly elected or appointed and qualified or until their earlier death, resignation or removal in accordance with the articles of incorporation and by-laws of the Surviving Entity.

2.8 Effect of the Merger on Common Stock. At the Effective Time, as a result of the Merger and without any action on the part of Holdings, Merger Sub, the Target Company or any Target Company Stockholder:

(a) Shares of Target Company common stock or such other equity security that are issued and outstanding in respect of Target Company (the “Shares”) that are owned by the Target Company (as treasury stock or otherwise) shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

(b) Each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than (i) Shares to be cancelled and retired in accordance with Section 2.8(a), and (ii) Dissenting Shares) shall be converted into the right to receive its Pro Rata Share of the Merger Consideration at the time and subject to the contingencies specified herein.

(c) Each share of common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of Merger Sub issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be converted into and become one newly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock of the Surviving Entity.

2.9 Dissenting Shares. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, including Section 2.8, Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares cancelled in accordance with Section 2.8(a)) and held by a holder who has not voted in favor of adoption of this Agreement or consented thereto in writing and who has properly exercised appraisal rights in accordance with Act (such Shares being referred to collectively as the “Dissenting Shares” until such time as such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or otherwise loses such holder’s appraisal rights under the Act with respect to such Shares) shall not be converted into a right to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration, but instead shall be entitled to only such rights as are granted by the Act; provided, however, that if, after the Effective Time, such holder fails to perfect, withdraws or loses such holder’s right to dissent pursuant to the Act or if a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that such holder is not entitled to the relief provided by the Act, such Shares shall be treated as if they had been converted as of the Effective Time into the right to receive the portion of the Merger Consideration, if any, to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.8(b), without interest thereon. The Target Company shall provide Holdings prompt written notice of any demands received by the Target Company for appraisal of Shares, any withdrawal of any such demand and any other demand, notice or instrument delivered to the Target Company prior to the Effective Time pursuant to the Act that relates to such demand, and Holdings shall have the opportunity and right to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands. The Target Company shall give notice to Target Company Stockholders of their right to dissent and such notice shall comply with the Act. Except with the prior written consent of Holdings, the Target Company shall not make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demands.

2.10 Surrender and Payment.

(a) At the Effective Time, all Shares outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall cease to exist, and, subject to Section 2.9, either (i) each holder of a certificate formerly representing any Shares (each, a “Certificate”) shall cease to have any rights as a stockholder of the Target Company; or (ii) in the case of uncertificated shares, such holder shall cease to have any rights as a stockholder of the Target Company without any further action.

(b) Holdings, or a transfer agent appointed by Holdings, shall act as the exchange agent in the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”).

(c) As promptly as practicable following the date hereof and in any event not later than five (5) Business Days thereafter, Holdings shall mail to each holder of Shares a letter of transmittal in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the parties (a “Letter of Transmittal”) and instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Certificates in exchange for the applicable portion of Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.8(b). Holdings shall, no later than the later of (i) the Closing Date or (ii) five (5) Business Days after receipt of a Certificate, together with a Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and any other customary documents that Holdings may reasonably require in connection therewith, deliver to the holder of such Certificate such holder’s portion of the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.8(b) with respect to such Certificate so surrendered and the Certificate shall forthwith be cancelled. Until so surrendered, each outstanding Certificate that prior to the Effective Time represented Shares (other than Dissenting Shares) shall be deemed from and after the Effective Time, for all purposes, to evidence the right to receive the portion of the Merger Consideration as provided in Section 2.8(b). If after the Effective Time, any Certificate is presented to Holdings, it shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this Section 2.10.

(d) Each Target Company Stockholder shall also be entitled to any amounts that may be payable in the future in respect of the Shares formerly represented by such Certificate as provided in this Agreement, at the respective time and subject to the contingencies specified herein and therein.

(e) If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be delivered to a Person other than the Person in whose name the surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition to such delivery that (i) such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer, and (ii) the Person requesting such payment or delivery shall pay to Holdings any transfer or other Tax required as a result of such payment to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of Holdings that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(f) Any portion of the Merger Consideration that remains unclaimed by the Target Company Stockholders ninety (90) days after the Effective Time shall be returned to Holdings, upon demand, and any such Target Company Stockholder who has not exchanged Certificates for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 2.10 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Holdings for delivery of the Merger Consideration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holdings shall not be liable to any holder of Certificates for any amounts paid to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws. Any amounts remaining unclaimed by Target Company Stockholders two years after the Effective Time (or such earlier date, immediately prior to such time when the amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Entity) shall become, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, the property of Holdings free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g) Any portion of the Merger Consideration made available to the Exchange Agent in respect of any Dissenting Shares shall be returned to Holdings, upon demand.

2.11 No Further Ownership Rights in Shares. All Merger Consideration delivered or deliverable upon the surrender of Certificates in accordance with the terms hereof shall be deemed to have been delivered or deliverable in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the Shares formerly represented by such Certificate, and from and after the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of Shares on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Entity. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Entity, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the Merger Consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article II and elsewhere in this Agreement.

2.12 Adjustments. Without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, if at any time during the period between the date of this Agreement and the Effective Time, any change in the outstanding shares of capital stock or equity securities of the Target Company shall occur, including by reason of any reclassification, recapitalization, stock split (including reverse stock split) or combination, exchange or readjustment of shares, or any stock dividend or distribution paid in stock, the Merger Consideration and any other amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect such change.

2.13 Withholding Rights. Each of the Exchange Agent, Holdings, Merger Sub and the Surviving Entity shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Article II such amounts as may be required to be deducted and withheld with respect to the making of such payment under any provision of Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted and withheld by the Exchange Agent, Holdings, Merger Sub or the Surviving Entity, as the case may be, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which the Exchange Agent, Holdings, Merger Sub or the Surviving Entity, as the case may be, made such deduction and withholding.

2.14 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, 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 Holdings, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as Holdings may direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent shall issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration to be delivered in respect of the Shares formerly represented by such Certificate as contemplated under this Article II.

2.15 Closing Adjustments.

(a) No later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Target Company will deliver to Holdings the Target Company’s calculation of the Merger Consideration, including the Company’s good-faith estimate of each of: (i) the Closing Working Capital and the resulting Working Capital Adjustment, (ii) the amount of outstanding Indebtedness as of the Closing and the resulting Indebtedness Adjustment, and (iii) the total amount of Transaction Expenses that are incurred and unpaid by the Target Company as of the Closing, in reasonable detail (the “Closing Statement”). Such estimates will be based on the Target Company’s books and records, the best estimate of the management of the Target Company and other information then available and will be prepared in accordance with GAAP. Holdings will have the right to review the Closing Statement and such supporting documentation or data of the Target Company as Holdings may reasonably request. If Holdings does not agree with the Closing Statement, the Target Company and Holdings will negotiate in good faith to mutually agree on an acceptable Closing Statement no later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, and the Target Company will consider in good faith any proposed comments or changes that Holdings may reasonably suggest; provided, however, that the failure to include in the Closing Statement any changes proposed by Holdings, or the acceptance by Holdings of the Closing Statement, or the consummation of the Closing, will not limit or otherwise affect Holdings’ remedies under this Agreement, including Holdings’ right to include such changes or other changes in the Closing Statement, or constitute an acknowledgment by Holdings of the accuracy of the Closing Statement; provided, further, that the failure of Holdings and the Target Company to reach such mutual agreement will not give any Party the right to terminate this Agreement or otherwise fail to close the transactions contemplated hereunder.

(b) The “Working Capital Adjustment” shall be an amount equal to: (i) in the event the Closing Working Capital is less than seventy-five percent (75%) of Target Working Capital the amount by which the Closing Working Capital is less than the Target Working Capital; (ii) in the event the Closing Working Capital is greater than one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of the Target Working Capital, the amount by which the Closing Working Capital is greater than the Target Working Capital; or (iii) in the event the Closing Working Capital is within seventy-five percent (75%) and one hundred twenty-five percent (125%) of Target Working Capital, zero Dollars ($0.00).

( ) The “Indebtedness Adjustment” shall be an amount equal to: (i) in the event the amount of Indebtedness at Closing is greater than the Adjusted Indebtedness Target, the amount by which the Indebtedness at Closing exceeds the Adjusted Indebtedness Target; or (ii) in the event Indebtedness at Closing is less than or equal to the Adjusted Indebtedness Target, zero dollars ($0.00).

(a) The Working Capital Adjustment and Indebtedness Adjustment shall be applied to (deducted from) the Base Holdings Equity Value, which will in turn reduce the Holdings Equity due to Target Company Stockholders as set forth in the respective definitions set forth on Annex A.

2.16 Consideration Spreadsheet.

(a) Annex B to this Agreement describes the Holdings Equity deliverable in connection with the Merger, subject to any applicable adjustments contained herein. In addition, it sets forth the aggregate amount of Indebtedness Assumed issued and outstanding at the Closing and paid in full in connection with the SPAC Merger closing or the IPO closing, as the case may be.

(b) At least ten (10) Business Days before the Closing and concurrently with the delivery of the Closing Statement, Target Company shall prepare and deliver to Holdings a spreadsheet (the “Consideration Spreadsheet”), certified by the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer (or their functional equivalent) of Target Company, which shall set forth, as of the Closing Date and immediately prior to the Effective Date, the following:

(i) the names and addresses of all Target Company Stockholders and the number of Shares held by such Persons including all holders of the Series F Preferred and Series G Preferred;

(ii) detailed calculations of the Fully Diluted Share Number; and

(iii) each Target Company Stockholder’s Pro Rata Share (as a percentage interest and the interest in dollar terms) of the Holdings Equity portion of the Merger Consideration.

(c) The parties agree that Holdings and Merger Sub shall be entitled to rely on the Consideration Spreadsheet in making payments under Article II and Holdings and Merger Sub shall not be responsible for the calculations or the determinations regarding such calculations in such Consideration Spreadsheet.

2.17 PPP Escrow Amount. Holdings and the Target Representative hereby agree that the PPP Escrow Amount shall be held by the PPP Escrow Agent in the PPP Escrow Account, in accordance with the PPP Escrow Agreement; provided, however, Holdings and the Target Representative shall promptly (and in any event within three (3) Business Days thereafter) deliver a joint written instruction to the PPP Escrow Agent, pursuant to the PPP Escrow Agreement, instructing the PPP Escrow Agent to release the PPP Escrow Amount to the Target Representative (which shall thereafter pay such funds to the Target Company Stockholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share) upon the date on which the Target Company receives an SBA Determination; provided further, however, that if such SBA Determination indicates that less than 100% of the PPP Loan has been forgiven, then such joint written instruction shall instruct the Escrow Agent to release (a) only a portion of the PPP Escrow Amount that is equal to the amount of the PPP Loan that has been forgiven (if any) to the Target Representative (which shall thereafter pay such funds to the Target Company Stockholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share), and (b) the remainder to Holdings.

Article III

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE TARGET COMPANY

Article VI

TAX MATTERS

6.1 Tax Covenants.

(a) Without the prior written consent of Holdings, prior to the Closing, the Target Company, its Representatives and the Target Company Stockholders shall not make, change or rescind any Tax election, amend any Tax Return or take any position on any Tax Return, take any action, omit to take any action or enter into any other transaction that would have the effect of increasing the Tax liability or reducing any Tax asset of Holdings or the Surviving Entity in respect of any Post-Closing Tax Period. The Target Company agrees that Holdings is to have no liability for any Tax resulting from any action of the Target Company, any of its Representatives or the Target Company Stockholders. The Target Company Stockholders shall, severally and not jointly (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares), indemnify and hold harmless Holdings against any such Tax or reduction of any Tax asset.

(b) All transfer, documentary, sales, use, stamp, registration, value added and other such Taxes and fees (including any penalties and interest) incurred in connection with this Agreement and the Ancillary Documents (including any real property transfer Tax and any other similar Tax) shall be borne and paid by the Target Company Stockholders when due. Target Representative shall timely file any Tax Return or other document with respect to such Taxes or fees (and Holdings shall cooperate with respect thereto as necessary).

6.2 Termination of Existing Tax Sharing Agreements. Any and all existing Tax sharing agreements (whether written or not) binding upon the Target Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be terminated as of the Closing Date. After such date neither the Target Company nor any of its Subsidiaries or Representatives shall have any further rights or liabilities thereunder.

6.3 Tax Indemnification. Except to the extent treated as a liability in the calculation of Closing Working Capital, the Target Company Stockholders shall, severally and not jointly (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares), and without duplication, indemnify the Target Company, its Subsidiaries, Holdings, and each Holdings Indemnitee and hold them harmless from and against (a) any Loss attributable to any breach of or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty made in Section 3.21; (b) any Loss attributable to any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation in Article VI; (c) all Taxes of the Target Company and its Subsidiaries or relating to the business of the Target Company and its Subsidiaries for all Pre-Closing Tax Periods; (d) all Taxes of any member of an affiliated, consolidated, combined or unitary group of which the Target Company or any of its Subsidiaries (or any predecessor of the Target Company) is or was a member on or prior to the Closing Date by reason of a liability under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1502-6 or any comparable provisions of foreign, state or local Law; and (e) any and all Taxes of any person imposed on the Target Company or any of its Subsidiaries arising under the principles of transferee or successor liability or by contract, relating to an event or transaction occurring before the Closing Date. In each of the above cases, together with any out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees) incurred in connection therewith, the Target Company Stockholders shall, severally and not jointly (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares), reimburse Holdings for any Taxes of the Target Company and its Subsidiaries that are the responsibility of the Target Company Stockholders pursuant to this Section 6.3 within ten Business Days after payment of such Taxes by Holdings or the Target Company and its Subsidiaries.

6.4 Tax Returns.

(a) The Target Company and its Subsidiaries shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns required to be filed by it that are due on or before the Closing Date (taking into account any extensions), and shall timely pay all Taxes that are due and payable on or before the Closing Date (taking into account any extensions), and shall timely pay all Taxes that are due and payable on or before the Closing Date. Any such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless otherwise required by Law).

(b) Holdings shall prepare and timely file, or cause to be prepared and timely filed, all Tax Returns required to be filed by the Target Company and its Subsidiaries after the Closing Date with respect to a Pre-Closing Tax Period and for any Straddle Period. Any such Tax Return shall be prepared in a manner consistent with past practice (unless otherwise required by Law) and, if it is an income or other material Tax Return, shall be submitted by Holdings to Target Representative (together with schedules, statements and, to the extent requested by Target Representative, supporting documentation) at least 45 days prior to the due date (including extensions) of such Tax Return. If Target Representative objects to any item on any such Tax Return that relates to a Pre-Closing Tax Period, it shall, within 10 days after delivery of such Tax Return, notify Holdings in writing that it so objects, specifying with particularity any such item and stating the specific factual or legal basis for any such objection. If a notice of objection shall be duly delivered, Holdings and Target Representative shall negotiate in good faith and use their reasonable best efforts to resolve such items. If Holdings and Target Representative are unable to reach such agreement within ten (10) days after receipt by Holdings of such notice, the disputed items shall be resolved by the Independent Accountant and any determination by the Independent Accountant shall be final. The Independent Accountant shall resolve any disputed items within 20 days of having the item referred to it pursuant to such procedures as it may require. If the Independent Accountant is unable to resolve any disputed items before the due date for such Tax Return, the Tax Return shall be filed as prepared by Holdings and then amended to reflect the Independent Accountant’s resolution. The costs, fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by Holdings and Target Representative. The preparation and filing of any Tax Return of the Target Company and its Subsidiaries that does not relate to a Pre-Closing Tax Period or Straddle Period shall be exclusively within the control of Holdings.

(c) In addition to any rights pursuant to applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, Holdings is hereby authorized to set off Taxes due with respect to any such Tax Return that relate to Pre-Closing Tax Periods and Taxes due with respect to any such Tax Return that relate to Straddle Periods that are attributable under Section 6.5 to the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the Closing Date, but only to the extent such Taxes due were not taken into account as liabilities in computing the Closing Working Capital, against any amounts outstanding under any obligation at any time held or owing by Holdings or any Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Target Company Stockholders.

6.5 Straddle Period. In the case of Taxes that are payable with respect to a taxable period that begins before and ends after the Closing Date (each such period, a “Straddle Period”), the portion of any such Taxes that are treated as Pre-Closing Taxes for purposes of this Agreement shall be:

(a) in the case of Taxes (i) based upon, or related to, income, receipts, profits, wages, capital or net worth, (ii) imposed in connection with the sale, transfer or assignment of property, or (iii) required to be withheld, deemed equal to the amount which would be payable if the taxable year ended with the Closing Date; and

(b) in the case of other Taxes, deemed to be the amount of such Taxes for the entire period multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days in the period ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of which is the number of days in the entire period.

6.6 Contests. Holdings agrees to give written notice to Target Representative of the receipt of any written notice by the Target Company, Holdings or any of Holdings’ Affiliates which involves the assertion of any claim, or the commencement of any Action, in respect of which an indemnity may be sought by Holdings pursuant to this Article VI (a “Tax Claim”); provided, that failure to comply with this provision shall not affect Holdings’ right to indemnification hereunder. Holdings shall control the contest or resolution of any Tax Claim; provided, however, that Holdings shall obtain the prior written consent of Target Representative (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) before entering into any settlement of a claim or ceasing to defend such claim; and, provided further, that Target Representative shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose, the fees and expenses of which separate counsel shall be borne solely by Target Representative.

6.7 Cooperation and Exchange of Information. The Target Representative, the Target Company and Holdings shall provide each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably may request of the others in filing any Tax Return pursuant to this Article VI or in connection with any audit or other proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Target Company and its Subsidiaries. Such cooperation and information shall include providing copies of relevant Tax Returns or portions thereof, together with accompanying schedules, related work papers and documents relating to rulings or other determinations by tax authorities. Each of Target Representative, the Target Company and Holdings shall retain all Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Target Company and its Subsidiaries for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date until the expiration of the statute of limitations of the taxable periods to which such Tax Returns and other documents relate, without regard to extensions except to the extent notified by any of the other parties in writing of such extensions for the respective Tax periods. Prior to transferring, destroying or discarding any Tax Returns, schedules and work papers, records and other documents in its possession relating to Tax matters of the Target Company and its Subsidiaries for any taxable period beginning before the Closing Date, Target Representative, the Target Company or Holdings (as the case may be) shall provide the other parties with reasonable written notice and offer the other parties the opportunity to take custody of such materials.

6.8 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. Any indemnification payments pursuant to this Article VI shall be treated as an adjustment to the amount of the Merger Consideration by the parties for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

6.9 Payments to Holdings. Any amounts payable to Holdings pursuant to this Article VI shall be satisfied from the Target Company Stockholders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares pursuant to Section 8.6.

6.10 FIRPTA Statement. On the Closing Date, Target Company shall deliver to Buyer a certificate, dated as of the Closing Date, certifying to the effect that no interest in the Target Company is a U.S. real property interest (such certificate in the form required by Treasury Regulation Section 1.897-2(h) and 1.1445-3(c)) (the “FIRPTA Statement”).

6.11 Tax Treatment of Transaction. The parties intend that the Shares exchanged for Holdings Equity pursuant to the Merger are tax-deferred contributions of capital by the Target Company Stockholders in exchange for stock in Holdings under Section 351 of the Code. The parties agree to report the transactions consistent with the treatment described in this Section 6.11 for all Tax purposes.

6.12 Survival. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of Section 3.21 and this Article VI shall survive for the full period of all applicable statutes of limitations (giving effect to any waiver, mitigation or extension thereof) plus sixty (60) days.

6.13 Overlap. To the extent that any obligation or responsibility pursuant to Article VIII may overlap with an obligation or responsibility pursuant to this Article VI, the provisions of this Article VI shall govern.

All covenants and agreements of the parties contained herein (other than any covenants or agreements contained in Article VI which are subject to Article VI) shall survive the Closing indefinitely or for the period explicitly specified therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any claims asserted in good faith with reasonable specificity (to the extent known at such time) and in writing by notice from the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party prior to the expiration date of the applicable survival period shall not thereafter be barred by the expiration of the relevant representation or warranty and such claims shall survive until finally resolved.

8.2 Indemnification by Target Company Stockholders. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VIII, the Target Company Stockholders, severally and not jointly (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares), shall indemnify and defend each of Holdings and its Affiliates (including the Target Company) (collectively, the “Holdings Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Holdings Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Target Company contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of such Target Company pursuant to this Agreement (other than in respect of Section 3.21, it being understood that the sole remedy for any such inaccuracy in or breach thereof shall be pursuant to Article VI), as of the date such representation or warranty was made or as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specified date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such specified date); provided, that (g) claims for indemnification under this Section 8.2(a) of $25,000 or less, made as a single claim or an aggregated claim with respect to Target Company shall be barred, but if the claim for indemnification ultimately is determined to exceed $25,000, the full amount shall be recoverable, and (ii) if a claim for indemnification under this Section 8.2(a) made prior to Closing exceeds ten percent (10%) of the value of the consideration of paid or payable to the Target Company Stockholders, pursuant to this Agreement, the Target Company Stockholders representing at least fifty-one percent (51%) of the voting rights of Target Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement with respect to Target Company and its Target Company Stockholders;

(b) any breach or non-fulfillment of any covenant, agreement or obligation to be performed by the Sellers or, prior to the Closing, the Target Company pursuant to this Agreement (other than any breach or violation of, or failure to fully perform, any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation in Article VI, it being understood that the sole remedy for any such breach, violation or failure shall be pursuant to Article VI);

8.3 Indemnification by Holdings and AIRO Group. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Article VIII, Holdings and AIRO Group shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and defend the Target Company Stockholders, and shall cause its owners to do the same, and their Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “Target Company Stockholder Indemnitees”) against, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against, and shall pay and reimburse each of them for, any and all Losses incurred or sustained by, or imposed upon, the Target Company Stockholder Indemnitees based upon, arising out of, with respect to or by reason of:

(a) any inaccuracy in or breach of any of the representations or warranties of Holdings and Merger Sub contained in this Agreement or in any certificate or instrument delivered by or on behalf of Holdings or Merger Sub pursuant to this Agreement, as of the date such representation or warranty was made or as if such representation or warranty was made on and as of the Closing Date (except for representations and warranties that expressly relate to a specified date, the inaccuracy in or breach of which will be determined with reference to such specified date); or

8.5 Indemnification Procedures. The party making a claim under this Article VIII is referred to as the “Indemnified Party”, and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VIII is referred to as the “Indemnifying Party”. For purposes of this Article VIII, (i) if Holdings (or any other Holdings Indemnitee) comprises the Indemnified Party, any references to Indemnifying Party (except provisions relating to an obligation to make payments) shall be deemed to refer to Target Representative, and (ii) if Holdings comprises the Indemnifying Party, any references to the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to refer to Target Representative. Any payment received by Target Representative as the Indemnified Party shall be distributed to the Target Company Stockholders in accordance with this Agreement.

(a) Third Party Claims. If any Indemnified Party receives notice of the assertion or commencement of any Action made or brought by any Person who is not a Party to this Agreement or an Affiliate of a Party to this Agreement or a Representative of the foregoing (a “Third Party Claim”) against such Indemnified Party with respect to which the Indemnifying Party is obligated to provide indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 calendar days after receipt of such notice of such Third Party Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Third Party Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have the right to participate in, or by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party, to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s expense and by the Indemnifying Party’s own counsel, and the Indemnified Party shall cooperate in good faith in such defense; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party is a Target Company Stockholder, such Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to defend or direct the defense of any such Third Party Claim that (x) is asserted directly by or on behalf of a Person that is a supplier or customer of the Target Company, or (y) seeks an injunction or other equitable relief against the Indemnified Parties. In the event that the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any Third Party Claim, subject to Section 8.5(b), it shall have the right to take such action as it deems necessary to avoid, dispute, defend, appeal or make counterclaims pertaining to any such Third Party Claim in the name and on behalf of the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the defense of any Third Party Claim with counsel selected by it subject to the Indemnifying Party’s right to control the defense thereof. The fees and disbursements of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party, provided, that if in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, (a) there are legal defenses available to an Indemnified Party that are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party; or (b) there exists a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party that cannot be waived, the Indemnifying Party shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the Indemnified Party in each jurisdiction for which the Indemnified Party determines counsel is required. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to compromise or defend such Third Party Claim, fails to promptly notify the Indemnified Party in writing of its election to defend as provided in this Agreement, or fails to diligently prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may, subject to Section 8.5(b), pay, compromise, defend such Third Party Claim and seek indemnification for any and all Losses based upon, arising from or relating to such Third Party Claim. Target Representative and Holdings shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense (other than reimbursement of actual out-of-pocket expenses) to the defending party, management employees of the non- defending party as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(b) Settlement of Third Party Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall not enter into settlement of any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, except as provided in this Section 8.5(b). If a firm offer is made to settle a Third Party Claim without leading to liability or the creation of a financial or other obligation on the part of the Indemnified Party and provides, in customary form, for the unconditional release of each Indemnified Party from all liabilities and obligations in connection with such Third Party Claim and the Indemnifying Party desires to accept and agree to such offer, the Indemnifying Party shall give written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer within 10 days after its receipt of such notice, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest or defend such Third Party Claim and, in such event, the maximum liability of the Indemnifying Party as to such Third Party Claim shall not exceed the amount of such settlement offer. If the Indemnified Party fails to consent to such firm offer and also fails to assume defense of such Third Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party may settle the Third Party Claim upon the terms set forth in such firm offer to settle such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 8.5(a), it shall not agree to any settlement without the written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(c) Direct Claims. Any Action by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third Party Claim (a “Direct Claim”) shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party reasonably prompt written notice thereof, but in any event not later than 30 days after the Indemnified Party becomes aware of such Direct Claim. The failure to give such prompt written notice shall not, however, relieve the Indemnifying Party of its indemnification obligations, except and only to the extent that the Indemnifying Party forfeits rights or defenses by reason of such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all material written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been or may be sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have 30 days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. The Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its professional advisors to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party’s investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to the Target Company’s premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its professional advisors may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such 30 day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

(d) Tax Claims. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the control of any claim, assertion, event or proceeding in respect of Taxes of the Target Company (including, but not limited to, any such claim in respect of a breach of the representations and warranties in Section 3.21 hereof or any breach or violation of or failure to fully perform any covenant, agreement, undertaking or obligation in Article VI) shall be governed exclusively by Article VI hereof.

8.6 Payments; Setoff. Except for fraud, the sole remedy available to the Holdings Indemnitees is to set off any amounts owing or owed to the Holdings Indemnitees in respect of any Loss against (a) any amounts outstanding under any obligation at any time held or owing by the Holdings Indemnitees or any Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Target Company Stockholders, (b) any equity interests of Holdings held by the Target Company Stockholders (including, without limitation, the Holdings Equity), in whole or in part, by cancelling all or any part of such equity interests, or (c) both.

8.7 Tax Treatment of Indemnification Payments. All indemnification payments or offsets made under this Agreement shall be treated by the parties as an adjustment to the Merger Consideration for Tax purposes, unless otherwise required by Law.

8.8 Effect of Investigation. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Indemnifying Party, and the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification with respect thereto, shall not be affected or deemed waived by reason of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party (including by any of its Representatives) or by reason of the fact that the Indemnified Party or any of its Representatives knew or should have known that any such representation or warranty is, was or might be inaccurate or by reason of the Indemnified Party’s waiver of any condition set forth in Sections 7.2 or 7.3, as the case may be.

8.9 Exclusive Remedies. Subject to Section 10.13, the Parties acknowledge and agree that their sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any and all claims (other than claims arising from fraud, criminal activity or intentional misconduct on the part of a Party hereto in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement) for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, shall be pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Article VI and this Article VIII. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Party hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted under Law, any and all rights, claims and causes of action for any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or obligation set forth herein or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement it may have against the other Parties hereto and their Affiliates and each of their respective Representatives arising under or based upon any Law, except pursuant to the indemnification provisions set forth in Article VI and this Article VIII.

The Target Representative will act as such Person’s representative and attorney-in-fact to act on behalf of such Person with respect to this Agreement and to take any and all actions and make any decisions required or permitted to be taken by Target Representative pursuant to this Agreement, including the exercise of the power to:

(i) give and receive notices and communications;

(ii) agree to, negotiate, enter into settlements and compromises of, and comply with orders or otherwise handle any other matters described in Section 2.15;

(vii) engage, employ or appoint any agents or representatives (including attorneys, accountants and consultants) to assist Target Representative in complying with its duties and obligations; and

(viii) take all actions necessary or appropriate in the good faith judgment of Target Representative for the accomplishment of the foregoing.

Holdings shall be entitled to deal exclusively with Target Representative on all matters relating to this Agreement (including Article VIII) and shall be entitled to rely conclusively (without further evidence of any kind whatsoever) on any document executed or purported to be executed on behalf of any Target Company Stockholder by Target Representative, and on any other action taken or purported to be taken on behalf of any Target Company Stockholder by Target Representative, as being fully binding upon such Person. Notices or communications to or from Target Representative shall constitute notice to or from each of the Target Company Stockholders. Any decision or action by Target Representative hereunder, including any agreement between Target Representative and Holdings relating to the defense, payment or settlement of any claims for indemnification hereunder, shall constitute a decision or action of all Target Company Stockholders and shall be final, binding and conclusive upon each such Person. No Target Company Stockholder shall have the right to object to, dissent from, protest or otherwise contest the same. The provisions of this Section, including the power of attorney granted hereby, are independent and severable, are irrevocable and coupled with an interest and shall not be terminated by any act of any one or Target Company Stockholders, or by operation of Law, whether by death or other event.

(b) The Target Representative may be removed, etc. as provided in this Section 10.1(b).

(i) The Target Representative may resign at any time.

(ii) The Target Representative may be removed for any reason or no reason by the vote or written consent of a majority in interest of the Target Company Stockholders according to each Target Company Stockholder’s Pro Rata Share (the “Majority Holders”); provided, however, in no event shall Target Representative resign or be removed without the Majority Holders having first appointed a new Target Representative who shall assume such duties immediately upon the resignation or removal of Target Representative.

(iii) In the event of the death, incapacity, resignation or removal of Target Representative, a new Target Representative shall be appointed by the vote or written consent of the Majority Holders.

(iv) Notice of such vote or a copy of the written consent appointing such new Target Representative shall be sent to Holdings, such appointment to be effective upon the later of the date indicated in such consent or the date such notice is received by Holdings; provided, that until such notice is received, Holdings, Merger Sub and the Surviving Entity shall be entitled to rely on the decisions and actions of the prior Target Representative as described in Section 10.1(a) above.

(c) The Target Representative shall act as a fiduciary with fiduciary duties to the Target Company Stockholders. If the Target Representative has a personal conflict of interest with respect to any action, decision or determination to be made by the Target Representative, the Target Representative must notify the Target Company Stockholders.

(d) The Target Representative shall not be liable to the Target Company Stockholders for actions taken pursuant to this Agreement, except to the extent such actions shall have been determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have constituted gross negligence or involved fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith (it being understood that any act done or omitted pursuant to the advice of counsel, accountants and other professionals and experts retained by Target Representative shall be conclusive evidence of good faith). The Target Company Stockholders shall severally and not jointly (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares), indemnify and hold harmless Target Representative from and against, compensate it for, reimburse it for and pay any and all losses, liabilities, claims, actions, damages and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, arising out of and in connection with its activities as Target Representative under this Agreement (the “Representative Losses”), in each case as such Representative Loss is suffered or incurred; provided, that in the event it is finally adjudicated that a Representative Loss or any portion thereof was primarily caused by the gross negligence, fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith of Target Representative, Target Representative shall reimburse the Target Company Stockholders the amount of such indemnified Representative Loss attributable to such gross negligence, fraud, intentional misconduct or bad faith. The Representative Losses shall be satisfied by the Target Company Stockholders, severally and not jointly (in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares).

10.2 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the Party incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have occurred; provided, however, Holdings shall be responsible for reimbursing Target Company for all filing and other similar fees payable in connection with any filings or submissions under the HSR Act.

10.3 Notices. All notices, requests, consents, claims, demands, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been given (a) when delivered by hand (with written confirmation of receipt); (b) when received by the addressee if sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier (receipt requested); (c) on the date sent by facsimile or e-mail of a PDF document (with confirmation of transmission) if sent during normal business hours of the recipient, and on the next Business Day if sent after normal business hours of the recipient or (d) on the third day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid.

10.5 Headings. The headings in this Agreement are for reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

10.6 Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction.

In the event of any assignment, transfer or other disposition by Holdings and its subsidiaries, including the Surviving Entity, of all or any material portion of their respective assets, the assignee, transferee or recipient of such assets shall be and become automatically bound by this Agreement as a successor to Holdings, and Holdings shall cause such assignee, transferee or recipient expressly to assume this Agreement. No Party may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the express prior written consent of the other parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably conditioned, withheld or delayed; provided, that the surviving entity of any merger or consolidation involving Holdings shall succeed to this Agreement without any necessary consent of the other parties. No assignment shall relieve the assigning Party of any of its obligations hereunder.

Any failure of Holdings, AIRO Group or Merger Sub, on the one hand, or Target Company, on the other hand, to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived by Target Company (with respect to any failure by Holdings, AIRO Group or Merger Sub) or by Holdings, AIRO Group or Merger Sub (with respect to any failure by such Target Company), respectively, only by a written instrument signed by the Party granting such waiver, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

10.11 Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction).

(b) ANY LEGAL SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE ANCILLARY DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY MAY BE INSTITUTED IN THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA OR THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS IN EACH CASE LOCATED IN THE CITY OF CHICAGO AND COOK COUNTY OF, AND EACH PARTY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF SUCH COURTS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. SERVICE OF PROCESS, SUMMONS, NOTICE OR OTHER DOCUMENT BY MAIL TO SUCH PARTY’S ADDRESS SET FORTH HEREIN SHALL BE EFFECTIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS FOR ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT. THE PARTIES IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR ANY PROCEEDING IN SUCH COURTS AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVE AND AGREE NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

(c) EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR THE ANCILLARY DOCUMENTS IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES AND, THEREFORE, EACH SUCH PARTY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE ANCILLARY DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (a) NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER IN THE EVENT OF A LEGAL ACTION, (b) SUCH PARTY HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER, (c) SUCH PARTY MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY, AND (d) SUCH PARTY HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.11(c).

10.12 Arbitration Procedure.

(a) Except as expressly provided elsewhere in this Agreement, any dispute, controversy, or claim arising under or relating to this Agreement or any breach or threatened breach hereof (“Arbitrable Dispute”) shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the International Court of Arbitration of the International Chamber of Commerce (the “ICA”); provided that nothing in this Section 10.12(a) shall prohibit a Party from instituting litigation to enforce any Final Determination. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 10.12(a) or in the rules and procedures of ICA as in effect from time to time, the arbitration procedures and any Final Determination hereunder shall be governed by and shall be enforced pursuant to the Uniform Arbitration Act and applicable provisions of Delaware law.

(b) In the event that any Party asserts that there exists an Arbitrable Dispute, such Party shall deliver a written notice to each other Party involved therein specifying the nature of the asserted Arbitrable Dispute and requesting a meeting to attempt to resolve the same. If no such resolution is reached within thirty (30) days after such delivery of such notice, the Party delivering such notice of Arbitrable Dispute (the “Disputing Person”) may, within forty-five (45) days after delivery of such notice, commence arbitration hereunder by delivering to each other Party involved therein a notice of arbitration (“Notice of Arbitration”) and by filing a copy of such Notice of Arbitration with the ICA. Such Notice of Arbitration shall specify the matters as to which arbitration is sought, the nature of any Arbitrable Dispute and the claims of each Party to the arbitration and shall specify the amount and nature of any damages, if any, sought to be recovered as a result of any alleged claim, and any other matters required by the rules and procedures of ICA as in effect from time to time to be included therein, if any.

(c) Within twenty (20) days after receipt of the Notice of Arbitration, the parties shall use their best efforts to agree on an independent arbitrator expert in the subject matters of the Arbitrable Dispute (the “Arbitrator”). If the parties cannot agree on the identity of the Arbitrator, each of Holdings and the Target Representative shall select one independent arbitrator expert in the subject matter of the Arbitrable Dispute (the arbitrators so selected shall be referred to herein as the “Holdings Arbitrator” and the “Target Company Stockholder Arbitrator,” respectively). In the event that either Holdings or the Target Representative fails to select an independent arbitrator as set forth herein within twenty (20) days after delivery of a Notice of Arbitration, then the matter shall be resolved by the arbitrator selected by the other Party. Target Company Stockholder Arbitrator and Holdings Arbitrator shall select the Arbitrator, and the Arbitrator shall resolve the matter according to the procedures set forth in this Section 10.12. If Target Company Stockholder Arbitrator and Holdings Arbitrator are unable to agree on the Arbitrator within twenty (20) days after their selection, Target Company Stockholder Arbitrator and Holdings Arbitrator shall each prepare a list of three independent arbitrators. Target Company Stockholder Arbitrator and Holdings Arbitrator shall each have the opportunity to designate as objectionable and eliminate one arbitrator from the other arbitrator’s list within seven (7) days after submission thereof, and the Arbitrator shall then be selected by lot from the arbitrators remaining on the lists submitted by Target Company Stockholder Arbitrator and Holdings Arbitrator.

(d) The Arbitrator selected pursuant to Section 10.12(c) will determine the allocation of the costs and expenses of arbitration based upon the percentage which the portion of the contested amount not awarded to each Party bears to the amount actually contested by such Party. For example, if Holdings submits a claim for $1,000, and if the Target Representative contests only $500 of the amount claimed by Holdings, and if the Arbitrator ultimately resolves the Arbitrable Dispute by awarding Holdings $300 of the $500 contested, then the costs and expenses of arbitration will be allocated 60% (i.e., 300 ÷ 500) to the Target Company Stockholders and 40% (i.e., 200 ÷ 500) to Holdings.

(e) The arbitration shall be conducted under the rules and procedures of ICA as in effect from time to time, except as otherwise set forth herein or as modified by the agreement of all of the Parties. The arbitration shall be conducted in Chicago, Illinois. The Arbitrator shall conduct the arbitration so that a final result, determination, finding, judgment and/or award (the “Final Determination”) is made or rendered as soon as practicable, but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the delivery of the Notice of Arbitration nor later than ten (10) days following completion of the arbitration. The Final Determination must be agreed upon and signed by the Arbitrator. The Final Determination shall be final and binding on all parties hereto and there shall be no appeal from or reexamination of the Final Determination, except for fraud, perjury, evident partiality or misconduct by an arbitrator to correct manifest clerical errors.

(f) Holdings, on the one hand, and the Target Company Stockholders, on the other hand, may enforce any Final Determination first in any court in the state of Illinois or federal court in the state of Illinois or, if such courts do not have jurisdiction over the Arbitrable dispute, then any other state or federal court having jurisdiction over the Arbitrable Dispute, where applicable. For the purpose of any action or proceeding instituted with respect to any Final Determination, each Party hereby irrevocably submits to the jurisdiction of such courts, irrevocably consents to the service of process by registered mail or personal service and hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection which it may have or hereafter have as to personal jurisdiction, the laying of the venue of any such action or proceeding brought in any such court and any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

(g) If any Party shall fail to pay the amount of any damages, if any, assessed against it within five (5) days after the delivery to such Party of such Final Determination, the unpaid amount shall bear interest from the date of such delivery at the lesser of (i) twelve percent (12%) and (ii) the maximum rate permitted by applicable Laws. Interest on any such unpaid amount shall be compounded monthly, computed on the basis of a 365-day year and shall be payable on demand. In addition, such Party shall promptly reimburse the other Party for any and all costs or expenses of any nature or kind whatsoever (including but not limited to all attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in seeking to collect such damages or to enforce any Final Determination.

10.13 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any provision of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the parties shall be entitled to specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

10.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement

10.15 Representation Disclosure. This Agreement has been drafted by Husch Blackwell LLP, counsel for Holdings. By execution of this Agreement, the Parties acknowledge that it has been advised that a conflict of interest may exist between their interests and those of Holdings and further acknowledge that they have had the opportunity to seek the advice of independent legal counsel in connection with this Agreement.

10.16 Certain Acknowledgments. Upon execution and delivery of a counterpart to this Agreement, each Party shall be deemed to acknowledge to Holdings as follows: (a) the determination of such Party to exchange Shares pursuant to a Merger in connection with this Agreement or any other agreement has been made by such Party independent of any Party and independent of any statements or opinions as to the advisability of such purchase or as to the properties, business, prospects or condition (financial or otherwise) of the Parties which may have been made or given by any Party or by any agent or employee of any Party, (b) no Party has acted as an agent of such Party in connection with making its investment hereunder and no Party shall be acting as an agent of such Party in connection with monitoring such Party’s investment hereunder, (c) Holdings has retained Husch Blackwell LLP in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and expects to retain Husch Blackwell LLP as legal counsel in connection with the management and operation of the investment in the Surviving Entity, (d) Husch Blackwell LLP is not representing and will not represent any Party or any affiliated principal in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or any dispute which may arise between Holdings, on the one hand, and any Party or any affiliated principal, on the other hand, and such Party or affiliated principal will, if such Person wishes counsel on the transactions contemplated hereby, retain such Person’s own independent counsel and (f) Husch Blackwell LLP may represent Holdings or any of its Affiliates in connection with any and all matters contemplated hereby (including any dispute between Holdings, on the one hand, and any Party or any affiliated principal, on the other hand) and such Party or affiliated principal waives any conflict of interest in connection with such representation by Husch Blackwell LLP.

10.17 Unwind. The Parties acknowledge that but for the anticipated SPAC Merger or IPO, the Parties would not have executed and delivered this Agreement or contemplated completing the Merger. As a consequence, in the event the Merger closes but the effective time of the SPAC Merger or IPO does not occur by December 15, 2021, the Parties intend, for all legal and Tax purposes, to rescind the Merger (the “Rescission”) and to put the Parties to where they would have been had they not executed and delivered this Agreement and consummated the Merger. To allow for the Rescission, the Parties agree that the Surviving Entity will operate independently to the extent reasonably possible from the date hereof until the SPAC Merger or IPO occurs. In the event the closing of a SPAC Merger or IPO does not occur by December 15, 2021, or Holdings learns prior to that time that the SPAC Merger or IPO will not occur, Holdings will give prompt written notice to the Surviving Entity’s board of directors. Upon receipt of such notice, the Parties agree to execute all documents and take all necessary actions and consummate all necessary transactions to accomplish the Rescission for legal and Tax purposes by restoring the Parties to the position, or as close as possible to the position, they would have been in had the Merger not been consummated; which may include the return of cash payments, repurchase of assets and re-issuance of stock. The Parties further agree that in the event the Rescission occurs, for Tax purposes, they will take (and will use their reasonable best efforts to cause the former Target Company Stockholders to take) the position that the Merger and the Rescission had not occurred. Each Party (and each of the former Target Company Stockholders) shall be solely responsible for all costs incurred by such Party (or such the former Target Company Stockholder) as part of the Rescission process.

10.18 Post-Merger Attorney-Client Issues

(a) Each party acknowledges that (i) the Target Company has retained Kutak Rock LLP (“Law Firm”) to act as its counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents (the “Merger Engagement”), (ii) Law Firm has not acted as counsel for any other Person in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Transaction Documents and (iii) no Person other than the Target Company has the status of a Law Firm client for conflict of interest or any other purpose as a result thereof. AIRO Group and Holdings (x) waive and will not assert, and will cause its Affiliates (including, after the Closing Date, the Surviving Entity) to waive and not assert, any conflict of interest arising out of the Merger Engagement in connection with Law Firm’s representation after the Closing Date of the Target Company, any Affiliate of the Target Company in any matter involving the Transaction Documents (including any litigation, arbitration, mediation or other Action) and (y) consents to, and will cause its Affiliates (including, after the Closing Date, the Surviving Entity) to consent to, any such representation by Law Firm of the Target Company, any Affiliate of the Target Company following the Closing in any matter involving the Transaction Documents, even though, in each case, the interests of the Target Company or any Affiliate of the Target Company may be directly adverse to AIRO Group or Holdings.

(b) Holdings and AIRO Group agree that, after the Closing Date, neither Holdings nor AIRO Group will have any right to access or control any of Law Firm’s attorney-client privileged records relating exclusively to the Merger Engagement, which will be the property of (and controlled by) the Target Company. In addition, Holdings and AIRO Group agree that it would be impractical for the Target Company to remove all attorney-client privileged communications (including e-mails and other electronic files) between Law Firm, on one hand, and the Target Company, on the other hand, relating to the Merger Engagement. Accordingly, Holdings and AIRO Group agree that it will not, and will cause the Surviving Entity not to, use any such attorney-client privileged communications remaining in the records of the Target Company after the Closing Date in a manner that is adverse to the Target Company.

(c) Holdings and AIRO Group agree, on their own behalf and on behalf of their Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing Date, the Surviving Entity), that from and after the Closing Date, (i) the attorney-client privilege, all other evidentiary privileges and the expectation of client confidence as to all attorney-client privileged communications between Law Firm, on one hand, and the Target Company, on the other hand, relating exclusively to the Merger Engagement (the “Merger Engagement Privileged Materials”), belong to the Target Company and will not pass to or be claimed by Holdings or AIRO Group, and (ii) as between Holdings, AIRO Group and their Affiliates, on one hand, and the Target Company, on the other hand, the Target Company will have the exclusive right to control, assert or waive the attorney-client privilege, any other evidentiary privilege and the expectation of client confidence with respect to the Merger Engagement Privileged Materials. Accordingly, Holdings and AIRO Group will not and will cause its Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing Date, the Surviving Entity) not to (x) assert any attorney-client privilege, other evidentiary privilege or expectation of client confidence with respect to the Merger Engagement Privileged Materials in any Action involving the Target Company or its Affiliates or (y) knowingly take any action which could reasonably be expected to cause any the Merger Engagement Privileged Materials to cease being a confidential communication or to otherwise lose protection under the attorney-client privilege or any other evidentiary privilege, including waiving such protection in any dispute with a Person not involving the Target Company without the prior written consent of the Target Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in any Action between Purchaser, or its Affiliates, on one hand, and any third party, on the other hand, Purchaser, and its Affiliates may assert the attorney-client privilege to prevent the disclosure of the Merger Engagement Privileged Materials to such third party; provided, however, that neither Purchaser nor its Affiliates may waive such privilege without the prior written consent of the Seller Parties. Furthermore, Holdings and AIRO Group agree, on their behalf and on behalf of each of its Subsidiaries (including, after the Closing Date, the Surviving Entity), that in the event of a dispute between the Target Company or an Affiliate of the Target Company, on the one hand, and the Surviving Entity, on the other hand, arising out of or relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, neither the attorney-client privilege, the expectation of client confidence, nor any right to any other evidentiary privilege will protect from disclosure to the Target Company or its Affiliates any Merger Engagement Privileged Materials.
