Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the terms and conditions specified therein, (i) Wejo will transfer all of its Merger Sub 1 shares to Holdco, (ii) Merger Sub 1 will merge with and into TKB, with TKB continuing as the surviving company ("TKB Merger"), and (iii) Merger Sub 2 will merge with Wejo, with Wejo continuing as the surviving company (the "Wejo Merger" and, together with the TKB Merger, the "Business Combination"), so that, immediately following completion of the Business Combination (the "Closing"), each of Wejo and TKB will be a wholly owned subsidiary of Holdco. The Closing is expected to occur in the second quarter of 2023.

Wejo is a software and technology solutions provider to various multiple market verticals in combination with services that utilize ingested and standardized connected vehicle and other high volume, high value datasets, through its proprietary cloud software and analytics platform.

Each warrant of Wejo issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Wejo Merger will be assumed by Holdco and automatically represent a warrant to acquire a Holdco Common Share.

Each stock option of Wejo that is outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Wejo Merger, whether vested or unvested, shall automatically and without any action on the part of the holder or beneficiary thereof be assumed by Holdco and converted into an option to purchase a number of Holdco Common Shares equal to the total number of Wejo Common Shares subject to the stock option immediately prior to the effective time of the Wejo Merger, and shall otherwise be subject to the same terms and conditions (including vesting schedule) as applicable to the corresponding stock option of Wejo.

The exchange ratio will be determined by dividing $11.25 by Wejo's volume weighted price per share for the 15 consecutive trading days immediately preceding the second trading day prior to the TKB shareholders meeting to be held in connection with the Business Combination, subject to a minimum exchange ratio of 3.75 and a maximum exchange ratio of 22.50. Each TKB warrant issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the TKB Merger will be assumed by Holdco and automatically represent a warrant to acquire a Holdco Common Share and each TKB unit issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the TKB Merger will be automatically detached and the holder of each unit will be deemed to hold one TKB Class A ordinary share and one-half of a TKB public warrant, which underlying Class A ordinary share and public warrant will be converted in accordance with the terms explained above.
