Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Business Combination Agreement

This section describes the material provisions of the Business Combination Agreement (as defined below) but does not purport to describe all of the terms thereof. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Business Combination Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1. Unless otherwise defined herein, the capitalized terms used below are defined in the Business Combination Agreement.

The Business Combination

On August 15, 2023, Pono Capital Three, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“Pono”), entered into a Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”), by and among Pono, Pono Three Merger Acquisitions Corp., a British Columbia company and wholly-owned subsidiary of Pono (“Merger Sub”) and Robinson Aircraft Ltd., d/b/a Horizon Aircraft (“Horizon”).

Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, prior to the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement (the “Closing”), Pono will redomesticate as a British Columbia company (the “SPAC Continuance”), and at the Closing, Merger Sub will amalgamate (the “Amalgamation,” together with the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the “Business Combination”) with Horizon (the resulting company, “Amalco”), with Amalco being the wholly-owned subsidiary of Pono.

Exchange Consideration

As consideration for the Amalgamation, the holders of Horizon common shares collectively will be entitled to receive from Pono, in the aggregate, a number of Pono Class A ordinary shares equal to (the “Exchange Consideration”) the quotient derived from dividing (a) the difference of (i) Ninety-six Million Dollars ($96,000,000) minus (ii) the Closing Net Indebtedness, by (b) the Redemption Price (as defined below), with each Horizon shareholder receiving, for each Horizon share held, a number of Pono Class A ordinary shares equal to such shareholder’s pro rata portion of the Exchange Consideration. Each outstanding option to purchase Horizon common stock shall be cancelled or exercised prior to the Closing.

The Exchange Consideration otherwise payable to Horizon shareholders is subject to the withholding of a number of Pono ordinary shares equal to (i) three percent (3.0%) of the Exchange Consideration to be placed in escrow for post-closing adjustments (if any) to the Exchange Consideration, and (ii) such number of additional number of Pono ordinary shares equal a maximum of the quotient derived from dividing (i) Eight Million Dollars ($8,000,000) by (ii) the redemption price per share (the “Redemption Price”) as defined in Pono’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Incentive Shares”), provided such Incentive Shares are allotted and issued on or prior to the Closing Date to such third parties as Horizon and Pono may agree (A) in connection with post-closing financing structures in the form of a PIPE, convertible debt, forward purchase agreement, backstop, or equity line of credit; or (B) to one or more existing holders of Pono ordinary shares as an inducement for them not to proceed with a redemption, subject to certain restrictions.

The Exchange Consideration is subject to adjustment after the Closing based on confirmed amounts of the Closing Net Indebtedness as of the Closing Date. If the adjustment is a negative adjustment in favor of Pono, the escrow agent shall distribute to Pono a number of Pono Class A ordinary shares with a value equal to the absolute value of the adjustment amount. If the adjustment is a positive adjustment in favor of Horizon, Pono will issue to the Horizon shareholders an additional number Pono Class A ordinary shares with a value equal to the adjustment amount.

Representations and Warranties

The Business Combination Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by each of Pono, Merger Sub and Horizon. Certain of the representations are subject to specified exceptions and qualifications contained in the Business Combination Agreement or in information provided pursuant to certain disclosure schedules to the Business Combination Agreement.

Covenants of the Parties

Under the Business Combination Agreement, each party agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the Closing. The Business Combination Agreement also contains certain customary covenants by the parties during the period between the signing of the Business Combination Agreement and the earlier of the Closing or the termination of the Business Combination Agreement in accordance with its terms, including covenants regarding the conduct of their respective businesses, efforts, access, confidentiality and public announcements, the Pono proxy statement for the transaction (which includes the adoption of a new equity incentive plan for Pono with a number of awards thereunder equal to 10% of the issued and outstanding shares of Pono immediately after the Closing), notice of breaches, no insider trading, indemnification of directors and officers, and other customary covenants. The parties also have agreed to the following covenants:

●	Each party is subject to a “no-shop” obligation between signing of the Business Combination Agreement and Closing and will not be allowed to solicit or discuss competing transactions with other potential parties during such time period.

●	The Pono board of directors after the Closing will consist of at least five directors, including: (i) three (3) persons designated prior to the Closing by Horizon, two of whom must qualify as independent directors; (ii) one (1) person designated prior to the Closing by Pono; and (iii) one (1) person mutually agreed upon and designated prior to the Closing by Pono and Horizon, who must qualify as an independent director.

Indemnification

The representations and warranties of Horizon and Pono contained in the Business Combination Agreement will not survive the Closing, and from and after the Closing, Horizon and Pono will not have any further obligations, nor shall any claim be asserted or action be brought against Horizon and Pono or their respective representatives with respect thereto. The covenants and agreements made by Horizon and Pono in the Business Combination Agreement, including any rights arising out of any breach of such covenants or agreements, shall not survive the Closing, except for those covenants and agreements contained therein that by their terms apply or are to be performed in whole or in part after the Closing (which such covenants shall survive the Closing and continue until fully performed in accordance with their terms).

●	by Horizon if there has been an event after the signing of the Business Combination Agreement that has had a Material Adverse Effect on Pono that is continuing and uncured;

●	by Pono or Horizon if the Pono stockholders vote and do not approve the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement; and

●	by Pono if a fairness opinion or third-party valuation is required by SEC rules or regulations, and Pono is unable to obtain such opinion or valuation supporting the terms contemplated hereunder after commercially reasonable best efforts to obtain such opinion or valuation.

Trust Account Waiver

Horizon agrees that it and its affiliates will not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in Pono’s trust account held for its public shareholders, and agrees not to, and waives any right to, make any claim against the trust account (including any distributions therefrom).

The foregoing description of the Business Combination Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Business Combination Agreement, which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The representations, warranties and covenants of each party set forth in the Business Combination Agreement have been made only for purposes of, and were and are solely for the benefit of the parties to, the Business Combination Agreement, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk between the parties to the Business Combination Agreement instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, the representations and warranties may not describe the actual state of affairs at the date they were made or at any other time, and investors should not rely on them as statements of fact. In addition, such representations and warranties (i) have certain limited exceptions, will not survive consummation of the Amalgamation indefinitely unless otherwise stated in the Business Combination Agreement, and (ii) were made only as of the date of the Business Combination Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Business Combination Agreement. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may change after the date of the Business Combination Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the parties’ public disclosures. Accordingly, the Business Combination Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding Pono, its respective affiliates or their respective businesses. The Business Combination Agreement should not be read alone but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding Pono or Horizon, their respective affiliates and their respective businesses included in the filings they make with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Related Agreements

This section describes the material provisions of certain additional agreements entered into or to be entered into pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Related Agreements”) but does not purport to describe all of the terms thereof.

Stockholders and other interested parties are urged to read such Related Agreements in their entirety.

The foregoing description of the Voting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Voting Agreement, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.4 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

Forward Purchase Agreements

In connection with the Business Combination, Pono and Horizon entered into an agreement with (i) Meteora Capital Partners, LP (“MCP”), (ii) Meteora Select Trading Opportunities Master, LP (“MSTO”) and (iii) Meteora Strategic Capital, LLC (“MSC”) (with MCP, MSTO and MSC collectively referred to as the “Seller” or “Meteora”) (the “Forward Purchase Agreement” or “Confirmation”) for OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transactions. For purposes of the Forward Purchase Agreement, Pono is referred to as the “Counterparty” prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, then to Pubco (as defined below), following the Business Combination. In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, Pono will change its corporate name to “Horizon Aircraft Ltd.,” or such other name as may be determined by Horizon (“Pubco”), following the Business Combination. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Forward Purchase Agreement.

Pursuant to the terms of the Forward Purchase Agreement, the Seller intends, but is not obligated, to purchase up to 9.9% (the “Maximum Amount”) of the total Pono Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of Pono (the “Pono Common Shares”) outstanding following the closing of the Business Combination concurrently with the Closing pursuant to the Seller’s FPA Funding Amount PIPE Subscription Agreement (as defined below), less the number of Pono Common Shares purchased by the Seller separately from third parties through a broker in the open market (“Recycled Shares”). The Seller shall not be required to purchase an amount of Pono Common Shares such that following such purchase, that Seller’s ownership would exceed 9.9% of the total Pono Common Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such purchase, unless the Seller, at its sole discretion, waives such 9.9% ownership limitation. The Number of Shares subject to the Forward Purchase Agreement is subject to reduction following a termination of the Forward Purchase Agreements with respect to such shares as described under “Optional Early Termination” in the respective Forward Purchase Agreements.

The Forward Purchase Agreement provides that an amount in U.S. dollars equal to 10.0% of the product of the Recycled Shares subject to the Forward Purchase Agreement and the Initial Price (as defined below) (the “Prepayment Shortfall”) will be paid by Seller to Counterparty; provided that Seller shall pay one half (1/2) of the Prepayment Shortfall to Counterparty on the Prepayment Date (which amount shall be netted from the Prepayment Amount (as defined below)) and, at the request of Counterparty, the other one half (1/2) of the Prepayment Shortfall (the “Future Shortfall”) on the earlier of (a) the date that the SEC declares a registration statement covering sales by Seller effective (the “Registration Statement Effective Date”) and (b) the OET Date, provided the VWAP Price is greater than $5.00 for any 45 trading days during the prior 90 consecutive trading day period and average daily trading volume over such period equals at least four times the Future Shortfall. Seller in its sole discretion may sell Shares at any time following the Trade Date and at any sales price, without payment by Seller of any Early Termination Obligation until the earlier of such time as the proceeds from such sales equal 100% of the Prepayment Shortfall (such sales, “Shortfall Sales,” and such Shares, “Shortfall Sale Shares”). A sale of Shares is only (a) a “Shortfall Sale,” subject to the terms and conditions herein applicable to Shortfall Sale Shares, when a Shortfall Sale Notice is delivered under the Forward Purchase Agreement, and (b) an Optional Early Termination, subject to the terms and conditions in the Forward Purchase Agreement applicable to Terminated Shares, when an OET Notice (as defined below) is delivered under the Forward Purchase Agreement, in each case the delivery of such notice in the sole discretion of the Seller.

The Forward Purchase Agreement provides that the Seller will be paid directly an aggregate cash amount (the “Prepayment Amount”) equal to (x) the product of (i) the Number of Shares as set forth in each Pricing Date Notice and (ii) the redemption price per share as defined in Pono’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (the “Initial Price”), less (y) the Prepayment Shortfall.

The Counterparty will pay to the Seller the Prepayment Amount required under the Forward Purchase Agreement directly from the Counterparty’s Trust Account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company holding the net proceeds of the sale of the units in the Counterparty’s initial public offering and the sale of private placement units (the “Trust Account”) no later than the earlier of (a) one local business day after the Closing Date and (b) the date any assets from the Trust Account are disbursed in connection with the Business Combination, except that to the extent the Prepayment Amount payable to the Seller is to be paid from the purchase of Additional Shares by the Seller pursuant to the terms of its FPA Funding Amount PIPE Subscription Agreement, such amount will be netted against such proceeds, with the Seller being able to reduce the purchase price for the Additional Shares by the Prepayment Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, any Additional Shares purchased by the Seller will be included in the Number of Shares for its respective Forward Purchase Agreement for all purposes, including for determining the Prepayment Amount.

Following the Closing, the reset price (the “Reset Price”) will initially be the Initial Price. The Reset Price will be subject to reset on a bi-weekly basis commencing the first week following the thirtieth day after the closing of the Business Combination to be the lowest of (a) the then-current Reset Price, (b) the Initial Price and (c) the VWAP Price of the Shares of the prior two weeks; provided the Reset Price shall not be less than $6.00, pursuant to reduction upon a Dilutive Offering Reset immediately upon the occurrence of such Dilutive Offering.

From time to time and on any date following the Business Combination (any such date, an “OET Date”), the Seller may, in its absolute discretion, terminate its Forward Purchase Agreement in whole or in part by providing written notice to the Counterparty (the “OET Notice”), no later than the next Payment Date following the OET Date (which shall specify the quantity by which the Number of Shares shall be reduced (such quantity, the “Terminated Shares”)). The effect of an OET Notice shall be to reduce the Number of Shares by the number of Terminated Shares specified in such OET Notice with effect as of the related OET Date. As of each OET Date, the Counterparty shall be entitled to an amount from the Seller, and the Seller shall pay to the Counterparty an amount, equal to the product of (x) the number of Terminated Shares and (y) the Reset Price in respect of such OET Date. The payment date may be changed within a quarter at the mutual agreement of the parties.

The valuation date will be the earliest to occur of (a) the date that is three years following the Closing Date, (b) the date specified by Seller in a written notice to be delivered to Counterparty at Seller’s discretion (which Valuation Date shall not be earlier than the day such notice is effective) after the occurrence of any of (w) a VWAP Trigger Event, (x) a Delisting Event, (y) a Registration Failure or (z) unless otherwise specified therein, upon any Additional Termination Event, and (c) the date specified by Seller in a written notice to be delivered to Counterparty at Seller’s sole discretion (which Valuation Date shall not be earlier than the day such notice is effective). The Valuation Date notice will become effective immediately upon its delivery from Seller to Counterparty in accordance with this Confirmation.

On the Cash Settlement Payment Date, which is the tenth local business day following the last day of the valuation period commencing on the Valuation Date, in the event the Valuation Date is determined by clause (c) of the paragraph above, Seller shall pay Counterparty a cash amount equal to (1) the Number of Shares as of the Valuation Date multiplied by (2) the closing price of the Shares on the immediately preceding trading day.

In all other cases, Seller shall pay the Counterparty a cash amount equal to (1) (A) the Number of Shares as of the Valuation Date less the number of Unregistered Shares, multiplied by (B) the volume-weighted daily VWAP Price over the Valuation Period less (2) if the Settlement Amount Adjustment is less than the cash amount to be paid, the Settlement Amount Adjustment. The Settlement Amount Adjustment is equal to (1) the Maximum Number of Shares as of the Valuation Date multiplied by (2) $3.00 per share, and the Settlement Amount Adjustment will be automatically netted from the Settlement Amount. If at the Valuation Date, the estimated Settlement Amount Adjustment exceeds the Settlement Amount, the Counterparty will pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment to the Seller in Pono Common Shares unless the Counterparty has previously elected to pay it in cash, in which case at the Cash Settlement Payment Date the Settlement Amount Adjustment will be automatically netted from the Settlement Amount if the Settlement Amount exceeds the Settlement Amount Adjustment, and if it does not, then neither the Seller nor the Counterparty shall be liable to the other party for any payment.

The Seller has agreed to waive any redemption rights with respect to any Recycled Shares in connection with the Business Combination, as well as any redemption rights under Pono’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that would require redemption by Pono of the Shares. Such waiver may reduce the number of Pono Common Shares redeemed in connection with the Business Combination, and such reduction could alter the perception of the potential strength of the Business Combination. The Forward Purchase Agreement has been structured, and all activity in connection with such agreement has been undertaken, to comply with the requirements of all tender offer regulations applicable to the Business Combination, including Rule 14e-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

In addition to the Prepayment Amount, Counterparty will instruct its transfer agent to deliver to Seller, on the Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the product of (x) 300,000 and (y) the Initial Price, which will be used for the purchase of Shares (the “Share Consideration Shares”). Such Share Consideration Shares will not be included in the Number of Shares, and the Seller and the Share Consideration Shares will be free and clear of all obligations with respect to the Seller and such Share Consideration Shares in connection with the Confirmation.

The foregoing description of the Forward Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Forward Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.5 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

FPA Funding Amount PIPE Subscription Agreements

On August 15, 2023, Pono entered into a subscription agreement (the “FPA Funding Amount Subscription Agreement”) with Seller.

Pursuant to the FPA Funding Subscription Agreement, Seller agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and Pono agreed to issue and sell to Seller, on the Closing Date at a price of $10.00 per share, an aggregate of up to the Maximum Amount, less the Recycled Shares in connection with the Forward Purchase Agreements.

The foregoing description of the FPA Funding Amount Subscription Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the FPA Funding Amount Subscription Agreement, the form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.6 hereto and incorporated by reference herein.

Forward Looking Statements

The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 with respect to the proposed Business Combination. These forward-looking statements generally are identified by the words “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “aim,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result” and similar expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to risks and uncertainties. Actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this report, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the Business Combination may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Pono’s securities; (ii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination, including the approval of the definitive Business Combination agreement by the stockholders of Pono; (iii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the definitive Business Combination agreement; (iv) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against any of the parties to the business combination agreement following the announcement of the entry into the Business Combination Agreement and proposed Business Combination; (v) redemptions exceeding anticipated levels or the failure to meet The Nasdaq Market’s initial listing standards in connection with the consummation of the proposed Business Combination; (vi) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the proposed Business Combination on Horizon’s business relationships, operating results and business generally; (vii) risks that the proposed Business Combination disrupts the current plans of Horizon; (viii) changes in the markets in which Horizon competes, including with respect to its competitive landscape, technology evolution or regulatory changes; (ix) the risk that Pono and Horizon will need to raise additional capital to execute its business plans, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all; (x) the ability of the parties to recognize the benefits of the Business Combination Agreement and the Business Combination; (xi) the lack of useful financial information for an accurate estimate of future capital expenditures and future revenue; (xii) statements regarding Horizon’s industry and market size; (xiii) financial condition and performance of Horizon and Pono, including the anticipated benefits, the implied enterprise value, the expected financial impacts of the Business Combination, potential level of redemptions of Pono’s public stockholders, the financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, the products, the expected future performance and market opportunities of Horizon; and (xiv) those factors discussed in Pono’s filings with the SEC and that that will be contained in the registration statement on Form F-4 and the related proxy statement relating to the Business Combination. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that will be described in the “Risk Factors” section of the registration statement on Form F-4 and the related proxy statement and other documents to be filed by Pono from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward- looking statements, and while Horizon and Pono may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, they assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, subject to applicable law.

The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense.

(c) The Company shall, subject to the terms of this Agreement, ensure that the Company Information Circular includes a statement that the board of directors of the Company has unanimously (i) determined that the Amalgamation is in the best interests of the Company and fair to the Company Shareholders and (ii) recommended that the Company Common Shareholders vote in favor of the Company Amalgamation Resolution.

(d) The SPAC shall assist the Company in the preparation of the Company Information Circular, including obtaining and furnishing to the Company any information with respect to the SPAC required to be included under applicable Laws in the Company Information Circular (the “SPAC Information”), and ensuring that the SPAC Information does not contain any Misrepresentation. The Company shall give the SPAC and its legal counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on drafts of the Company Information Circular and other related documents, and shall accept the reasonable comments made by the SPAC and its counsel, and agrees that all information relating to the SPAC included in the Company Information Circular must be in a form and content reasonably satisfactory to the SPAC.

(e) Each Party shall promptly notify the other Parties if it becomes aware that the Company Information Circular contains a Misrepresentation, or otherwise requires an amendment or supplement. The Parties shall cooperate in the preparation of any such amendment or supplement as required or appropriate, and the Company shall promptly deliver or otherwise disseminate any such amendment or supplement to the Company Shareholders as required by the Court or applicable Law.

(f) If the Company Information Circular requires the inclusion of, or the Company otherwise desires to include, any tax disclosure regarding the anticipated consequences of the transactions contemplated hereby to any Company shareholders, each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver a “Tax Representation Letter,” containing customary representations of the applicable Party as shall be reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable outside legal counsel to prepare such disclosure, subject to customary assumptions and limitations, regarding the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, (A) the aggregate number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares that each Company Shareholder will have a right to receive pursuant to the Amalgamation will be rounded down to the nearest whole share, (B) in no event shall the aggregate number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares set forth on the Allocation Schedule that are allocated in respect of Company Shares exceed the Exchange Consideration, and (C) the Allocation Schedule (and the calculations or determinations therein) shall be prepared in accordance with any applicable Law, the Company Governing Documents, the Company Shareholders Agreement, the Company Equity Plan and any other Contract to which the Company is a party or bound to the extent applicable thereto.

(b) The SPAC, the Exchange Agent and their respective Affiliates and Representatives shall be entitled to rely, without any independent investigation or inquiry, on the names, amounts, and other information set forth in the Allocation Schedule. None of the SPAC, the Exchange Agent and their respective Affiliates or Representatives shall have any liability to any Company Shareholder or any of its Affiliates for relying on the Allocation Schedule.

The SPAC, the Exchange Agent and their respective Affiliates and Representatives shall be entitled to rely, without any independent investigation or inquiry, on such modified Allocation Schedule.

1.16 Exchange Agent.

(a) As promptly as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement, but in no event later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the SPAC shall appoint an exchange agent reasonably acceptable (such acceptance, not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to the Company (the “Exchange Agent”) and enter into an exchange agent agreement with the Exchange Agent for the purpose of exchanging certificates, if any, representing the Company Shares (“Company Certificates”) and each Company Share held in book-entry form on the stock transfer books of the Company immediately prior to the Closing, in either case, for the portion of the Exchange Consideration issuable in respect of such Company Shares pursuant to the Amalgamation and on the terms and subject to the other conditions set forth in this Agreement (less the Escrow Shares, which will be deposited in the Escrow Account in accordance with Section 1.21).

(b) At least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall mail or otherwise deliver, or shall cause to be mailed or otherwise delivered, a Letter of Transmittal to the Company Shareholders.

(c) In accordance with the Amalgamation, the SPAC shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, with the Exchange Agent, for the benefit of the Company Shareholders and for exchange in accordance with this Section 1.16 through the Exchange Agent, evidence of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares in book-entry form representing the portion of the Exchange Consideration issuable pursuant to the Amalgamation (less the Escrow Shares, which will be deposited in the Escrow Account in accordance with Section 1.21).

1.17 Withholding. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the SPAC, Amalco, the Company and the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to take such actions as are reasonably necessary to deduct or withhold (or cause to be deducted or withheld) from any amounts payable or otherwise deliverable to any Person pursuant to the Amalgamation or this Agreement such Taxes, source deductions and other amounts as are required to be deducted or withheld under applicable Tax Law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely remitted to the applicable Governmental Authority, such amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction or withholding was made. Each of the SPAC, Amalco, the Company and the Exchange Agent, as applicable, is hereby authorized to sell or otherwise dispose of, on behalf of such Person, such portion of any share or other security deliverable to such Person as is necessary to provide sufficient funds to the SPAC, Amalco, the Company or the Exchange Agent, as the case may be, to enable it to comply with such deduction or withholding requirement and the SPAC, Amalco, the Company or the Exchange Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to notify such Person thereof and remit the applicable portion of the net proceeds of such sale to the appropriate Governmental Authority and, if applicable, any portion of such net proceeds that is not required to be so remitted shall be paid to such Person. The Parties shall cooperate in good faith to eliminate or reduce any such deduction or withholding (including through the request and provision of any statements, forms or other documents to reduce or eliminate any such deduction or withholding) to the extent permitted under applicable Tax Law.

1.18 Exchange Consideration. As consideration for the Amalgamation, the Company Shareholders collectively shall be entitled to receive from the SPAC, in the aggregate, a number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (the “Exchange Consideration”) equal to the quotient derived from dividing (a) the difference of (i) Ninety-six Million U.S. Dollars ($96,000,000) minus (ii) the Closing Net Indebtedness by (b) the Redemption Price, provided, that the Exchange Consideration otherwise issuable to Company Shareholders is subject to:

(a) the withholding of the Escrow Shares deposited in the Escrow Account in accordance with Section 1.21, and after the Closing is subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 1.20; and

(b) reduction by such number of additional number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares equal a maximum of the quotient derived from dividing (i) Eight Million U.S. Dollars ($8,000,000) by (ii) the Redemption Price (the “Incentive Shares”), provided such Incentive Shares are allotted and issued on or prior to the Closing Date to such third parties as the Company and the SPAC may agree (A) in connection with the Equity Financing; or (B) to one or more existing holders of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares as an inducement for them not to proceed with a Redemption, all subject to compliance with applicable Law and any applicable stock exchange policies.

1.19 Closing Calculations. At least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall deliver to the SPAC a statement certified by the Company’s chief executive officer (the “Estimated Closing Statement”) setting forth a good faith calculation of the Company’s estimate of the Closing Net Indebtedness as of the Reference Time, and the resulting Exchange Consideration based on such estimates, in reasonable detail including for each component thereof, along with the amount owed to each creditor of the Company, and bank statements and other evidence reasonably necessary to confirm such calculations. Promptly upon delivering the Estimated Closing Statement to the SPAC, if requested by the SPAC, the Company will meet with the SPAC to review and discuss the Estimated Closing Statement and the Company will consider in good faith the SPAC’s comments to the Estimated Closing Statement and make any appropriate adjustments to the Estimated Closing Statement prior to the Closing, which adjusted Estimated Closing Statement, as mutually approved by the Company and the SPAC both acting reasonably and in good faith, shall thereafter become the Estimated Closing Statement for all purposes of this Agreement. The Estimated Closing Statement and the determinations contained therein shall be prepared in accordance with the Accounting Principles and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement.

1.20 Exchange Consideration Adjustment.

(a) Within ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, the SPAC’s Chief Financial Officer shall deliver to the Sponsor a statement (the “Closing Statement”) setting forth (i) a consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of the Reference Time and (ii) a good faith calculation of Closing Net Indebtedness as of the Reference Time, and the resulting Exchange Consideration using the formula in Section 1.18. The Closing Statement shall be prepared, and the Closing Net Indebtedness and the resulting Exchange Consideration and shares shall be determined in accordance with the Accounting Principles and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement.

(b) After delivery of the Closing Statement, the Sponsor, the Company and their respective Representatives on their behalves, shall be permitted reasonable access to the books, records, working papers, files, facilities and personnel of the Company relating to the preparation of the Closing Statement. The Sponsor, the Company, and their respective Representatives on their behalves, may make inquiries of the Chief Financial Officer and related personnel and advisors of the SPAC and the Company regarding questions concerning or disagreements with the Closing Statement arising in the course of their review thereof, and the SPAC and the Company shall provide reasonable cooperation in connection therewith. If either the Sponsor or the Company (each, a “Representative Party”) has any objections to the Closing Statement, such Representative Party shall deliver to the Chief Financial Officer of the SPAC and the other Representative Party a statement setting forth its objections thereto (in reasonable detail) (an “Objection Statement”). If an Objection Statement is not delivered by a Representative Party within thirty (30) days following the date of delivery of the Closing Statement, then such Representative Party will have waived its right to contest the Closing Statement, all determinations and calculations set forth therein, and the resulting Exchange Consideration set forth therein. If an Objection Statement is delivered within such thirty (30) day period, then the Sponsor and the Company shall negotiate in good faith to resolve any such objections for a period of twenty (20) days thereafter. If the Sponsor and the Company do not reach a final resolution within such twenty (20) day period, then upon the written request of either Representative Party (the date of receipt of such notice by the other Party, the “Independent Expert Notice Date”), the Representative Parties will refer the dispute to the Independent Expert for final resolution of the dispute in accordance with Section 1.20(c). For purposes hereof, the “Independent Expert” shall mean a mutually acceptable independent (i.e., no prior material business relationship with any party for the prior two (2) years) accounting firm appointed by the Sponsor and the Company, which appointment will be made no later than ten (10) days after the Independent Expert Notice Date); provided, that

if the Independent Expert does not accept its appointment or if the Sponsor and the Company cannot agree on the Independent Expert, in either case within twenty (20) days after the Independent Expert Notice Date, either Representative Party may require, by written notice to the other Representative Party, that the Independent Expert be selected by the New York City Regional Office of the AAA in accordance with the AAA’s procedures. The parties agree that the Independent Expert will be deemed to be independent even though a Party or its Affiliates may, in the future, designate the Independent Expert to resolve disputes of the types described in this Section 1.20. The Parties acknowledge that any information provided pursuant to this Section 1.20 will be subject to the confidentiality obligations of Section 6.16.

(c) If a dispute with respect to the Closing Statement is submitted in accordance with this Section 1.20 to the Independent Expert for final resolution, the Parties will follow the procedures set forth in this Section 1.20(c). Each of the Sponsor and the Company agrees to execute, if requested by the Independent Expert, a reasonable engagement letter with respect to the determination to be made by the Independent Expert. All fees and expenses of the Independent Expert will be borne by the SPAC. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, all other costs and expenses incurred by the Sponsor in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Independent Expert will be borne by the Company Shareholders, and all other costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with resolving any dispute hereunder before the Independent Expert will be borne by the Sponsor. The Independent Expert will determine only those issues still in dispute as of the Independent Expert Notice Date and the Independent Expert’s determination will be based solely upon and consistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The determination by the Independent Expert will be based solely on presentations with respect to such disputed items by the Sponsor and the Company to the Independent Expert and not on the Independent Expert’s independent review; provided, that such presentations will be deemed to include any work papers, records, accounts or similar materials delivered to the Independent Expert by a Representative Party in connection with such presentations and any materials delivered to the Independent Expert in response to requests by the Independent Expert. Each of the Sponsor and the Company will use their reasonable efforts to make their respective presentations as promptly as practicable following submission to the Independent Expert of the disputed items, and each such Representative Party will be entitled, as part of its presentation, to respond to the presentation of the other Representative Party and any questions and requests of the Independent Expert. In deciding any matter, the Independent Expert will be bound by the provisions of this Agreement, including this this Section 1.20. It is the intent of the parties hereto that the activities of the Independent Expert in connection herewith are not (and should not be considered to be or treated as) an arbitration proceeding or similar arbitral process and that no formal arbitration rules should be followed (including rules with respect to procedures and discovery). The Sponsor and the Company will request that the Independent Expert’s determination be made within forty- five (45) days after its engagement, or as soon thereafter as possible, will be set forth in a written statement delivered to the Sponsor and the Company and will be final, conclusive, non-appealable and binding for all purposes hereunder (other than for fraud or manifest error).

(d) For purposes hereof, the term “Adjustment Amount” shall mean (x) the Exchange Consideration as finally determined in accordance with this Section 1.20, less (y) the Exchange Consideration that was issued at the Closing pursuant to the Estimated Closing Statement.

(i) If the Adjustment Amount is a positive number, then the SPAC shall, within ten (10) Business Days after such final determination of the Exchange Consideration, issue to the Company Shareholders an additional number of shares of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the Adjustment Amount, with each Company Shareholder receiving its Pro Rata Share of such additional shares of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares. Such additional shares of the SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares shall be considered additional Exchange Consideration under this Agreement and, with respect to Significant Company Holders, “Restricted Securities” under the Lock-Up Agreements.

(ii) If the Adjustment Amount is a negative number, then the Sponsor and the Company shall, within three (3) Business Days after such final determination, provide joint written instructions to the Escrow Agent to distribute to the SPAC a number of Escrow Shares (and, after distribution of all Escrow Shares, other Escrow Property) equal to the Adjustment Amount (with each Escrow Share valued at the Redemption Price). The SPAC will promptly cancel any Escrow Shares distributed to it by the Escrow Agent promptly after its receipt thereof. The Escrow Account shall be the sole source of recovery for any payments by the Company Shareholders under this Section 1.20(d), and the Company Shareholders shall not be required under this Section 1.20(d) to pay any amounts in excess of the Escrow Property in the Escrow Account at such time.

1.21 Escrow. At or prior to the Closing, the SPAC, the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (or such other escrow agent mutually acceptable to the Purchaser and the Company), as escrow agent (the “Escrow Agent”), shall enter into an escrow agreement, effective as of the Effective Time, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the SPAC and the Company (the “Escrow Agreement”), pursuant to which the SPAC shall issue to the Escrow Agent a number of SPAC Class A Ordinary Shares (with each share valued at the Redemption Price) equal to three percent (3%) of the Exchange Consideration (the “Escrow Amount”) (together with any equity securities paid as dividends or distributions with respect to such shares or into which such shares are exchanged or converted, the “Escrow Shares”) to be held, along with any other dividends, distributions or other income on the Escrow Shares (together with the Escrow Shares, the “Escrow Property”), in a segregated escrow account (the “Escrow Account”) and disbursed therefrom in accordance with the terms of Section 1.20 and the Escrow Agreement. The Escrow Property shall be allocated among and transferred to the Company Shareholders pro-rata based on their respective pro-rata share of the Exchange Consideration. The Escrow Property shall serve as the sole source of payment for the obligations of the Company Shareholders under Section 1.20. Unless otherwise required by Law, all distributions made from the Escrow Account shall be treated by the Parties as an adjustment to the number of shares of Exchange Consideration received by the Company Shareholders pursuant to Article I hereof.

1.22 Intended Tax Treatment. The Parties hereto intend that: (i) the SPAC Continuance be treated as a tax-deferred reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code and (ii) the SPAC be treated as a U.S. domestic corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 7874(b) of the Code (the foregoing, collectively, the “Intended Tax Treatment”). Each Party agrees to treat each of the SPAC Continuance as a tax-deferred reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code and the SPAC as a U.S. domestic corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes pursuant to Section 7874(b) of the Code, and to not take any position on any Tax return or otherwise take any Tax reporting position inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, unless otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Code that such treatment is not correct, provided that no representation is made with respect to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the transaction to any individual shareholder of any Party hereto. Each Party hereto shall act in a manner that is consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, and shall not take any action, or knowingly fail to take any action, if such action or failure to act would reasonably be expected to prevent the Intended Tax Treatment. The Parties hereto shall cooperate with each other and their respective legal counsel to document and support the Intended Tax Treatment of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including providing factual support letters and customary tax representations to legal counsel.

The SPAC holds all material Permits and Contracts necessary to lawfully conduct its business as presently conducted, and to own, lease and operate its assets and properties, all of which are in full force and effect, except where the failure to hold such Permit or Consent or for such Permit or Consent to be in full force and effect would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on the SPAC.

WAIVERS AND RELEASES

The Company and the Seller Representative each hereby represents and warrants that it has read the IPO Prospectus and understands that the SPAC has established the Trust Account containing the proceeds of the IPO and the overallotment shares acquired by the SPAC’s underwriters and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of the SPAC’s public stockholders (including overallotment shares acquired by the SPAC’s underwriters) (the “Public Shareholders”) and that, except as otherwise described in the IPO Prospectus, the SPAC may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Shareholders in the event they elect to redeem their SPAC Ordinary Shares in connection with the consummation of its initial business combination (as such term is used in the IPO Prospectus) (“Business Combination”) or in connection with an amendment to the SPAC’s Organizational Documents to extend the SPAC’s deadline to consummate a Business Combination, (b) to the Public Shareholders if the SPAC fails to consummate a Business Combination within twelve (12) months after the closing of the IPO, subject to extension, (c) with respect to any interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any Taxes, and (d) to the SPAC after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. For and in consideration of the SPAC entering into this Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, each of the Company and the Seller Representative hereby agrees on behalf of itself and its Affiliates that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, none of the Company or the Seller Representative nor any of their respective Affiliates do now or shall at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom), regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Agreement or any proposed or actual business relationship between the SPAC or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the Company, the Seller Representative or any of their respective Representatives, on the other hand, or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (collectively, the “Released Claims”). Each of the Company and the Seller Representative on behalf of itself and its Affiliates hereby irrevocably waives any Released Claims that any such Party or any of its Affiliates may have against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with the SPAC or its Representatives and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including for an alleged breach of this Agreement or any other agreement with the SPAC or its Affiliates). The Company and the Seller Representative each agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by the SPAC and its Affiliates to induce the SPAC to enter in this Agreement, and each of the Company and the Seller Representative further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable against such Party and each of its Affiliates under applicable Law. To the extent that the Company or the Seller Representative or any of their respective Affiliates commences any Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to the SPAC or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against the SPAC or its Representatives, each of the Company and the Seller Representative hereby acknowledges and agrees that its and its Affiliates’ sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit such Party or any of its Affiliates (or any Person claiming on any of their behalf or in lieu of them) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. In the event that the Company or the Seller Representative or any of their respective Affiliates commences Action based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to the SPAC or its Representatives which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, relief against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or the Public Shareholders, whether in the form of money damages or injunctive relief, the SPAC and its Representatives, as applicable, shall be entitled to recover from the Company, the Seller Representative (on behalf of the Company Shareholders) and their respective Affiliates, as applicable, the associated legal fees and costs in connection with any such Action, in the event the SPAC or its Representatives, as applicable, prevails in such Action. This Section 10.1 shall survive termination of this Agreement for any reason and continue indefinitely.

To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each of the Parties:

(a) irrevocably waives any objection, including any claim of inconvenient forum, that it may now or in the future have to the venue of any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this agreement in the courts of that Province, or that the subject matter of this agreement may not be enforced in those courts;

(b) irrevocably agrees not to seek, and waives any right to, judicial review by any court that may be called upon to enforce the judgment of the courts referred to in this section 5(g), of the substantive merits of any suit, action or proceeding; and

(c) If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

(d) This Agreement, the BCA and the Ancillary Documents constitute the entire agreement among the Parties and the other parties thereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and supersede all prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the Parties and the other parties thereto, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. This Agreement shall not be assigned (whether pursuant to a merger, by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of each of the Parties, and any attempt to do so without such consent shall be void ab initio.

(e) This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each Party, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person any right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

(f) The Parties agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event any provision of this Agreement is not performed in accordance with the terms hereof and that the Parties shall be entitled to seek specific performance of the terms hereof, in addition to any other remedy at law or in equity. Each of the Parties agrees that it shall not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement on the basis that the other Parties have an adequate remedy at law or that an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. Any Party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, this Agreement, when expressly available pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such Order.

(g) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance with, the Laws of the Province of British Columbia applicable in that Province. Without prejudice to the ability of any Party to enforce this Agreement in any other proper jurisdiction, each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally submits and attorns to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of British Columbia to determine all issues, whether at law or in equity, arising from this Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each of the Parties:

(i) irrevocably waives any objection, including any claim of inconvenient forum, that it may now or in the future have to the venue of any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this agreement in the courts of that Province, or that the subject matter of this agreement may not be enforced in those courts;

(ii) irrevocably agrees not to seek, and waives any right to, judicial review by any court that may be called upon to enforce the judgment of the courts referred to in this section 5(g), of the substantive merits of any suit, action or proceeding; and

(iii) to the extent that party has or may acquire any immunity from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process, whether through service or notice, attachment before judgment, attachment in aid of execution, execution or otherwise, with respect to itself or its property, irrevocably waives that immunity in connection with its obligations under this agreement.

(h) This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission) in one or more counterparts, and by the different Parties in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

(i) Without further consideration, each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered such additional documents and instruments and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(j) This Agreement shall not be effective or binding upon any Company Shareholder until such time as the BCA is executed by each of the parties thereto.

(k) If, and as often as, there are any changes in the Company or the Company Shareholder’s Securities by way of equity split, dividend, combination or reclassification, or through merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or business combination, or by any other means, equitable adjustment shall be made to the provisions of this Agreement as may be required so that the rights, privileges, duties and obligations hereunder shall continue with respect to the Company Shareholder and its Securities as so changed.

(l) Each of the Parties hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law any right it may have to a trial by jury with respect to any litigation directly or indirectly arising out of, under or in connection with this Agreement. Each of the Parties hereto (i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any other Party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other Party would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce that foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other Parties have been induced to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications in this Paragraph 5(l).

This SPONSOR SUPPORT AGREEMENT, dated as of August 15, 2023 (this “Agreement”), by and among MEHANA CAPITAL LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Supporter”), Pono Capital Three, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“SPAC”), and Robinson Aircraft Ltd. d/b/a Horizon Aircraft (the “Company”). Terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the BCA (as defined below).

WHEREAS, contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, SPAC, the Company, Pono Three Merger Acquisitions Corp., a British Columbia company and a wholly- owned subsidiary of the SPAC (“Merger Sub”), and certain other persons are entering into that certain Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA”), a copy of which has been made available to Supporter and pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, SPAC will redomesticate and continue as a British Columbia company, and Merger Sub will amalgamate with the Company, with the amalgamated company a wholly-owned subsidiary of the SPAC (the “Amalgamation”), and with the Company’s shareholders receiving shares of the post-redomestication SPAC’s common stock;

WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, Supporter owns 5,500,997 ordinary shares of SPAC (all such SPAC ordinary shares and any shares of SPAC ordinary shares of which ownership of record or the power to vote is hereafter acquired by Supporter prior to the termination of this Agreement being referred to herein as the “Shares”); and

WHEREAS, in order to induce the Company and SPAC to enter into the BCA, Supporter is executing and delivering this Agreement to the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, Supporter, the Company, and SPAC hereby agree as follows:

1. Agreement to Vote. Supporter, with respect to the Shares, hereby agrees (and agrees to execute such documents or certificates evidencing such agreement as SPAC and/or the Company may reasonably request in connection therewith) to vote at any meeting of the stockholders of SPAC, and in any action by written consent of the stockholders of SPAC, to approve the BCA, all of the Shares (a) in favor of the approval and adoption of the BCA, the transactions contemplated by the BCA and this Agreement, (b) in favor of any other matter reasonably necessary to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the BCA and considered and voted upon by the stockholders of SPAC (including the SPAC Shareholder Approval Matters), (c) in favor of the approval and adoption of the new equity incentive plan, (d) for the appointment, and designation of classes, of the members of the Post-Closing Board and (e) against any action, agreement or transaction (other than the BCA or the transactions contemplated thereby) or proposal that would result in a breach of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of SPAC under the BCA or that would reasonably be expected to result in the failure of the transactions contemplated by the BCA from being consummated. Supporter acknowledges receipt and review of a copy of the BCA.

2. Transfer of Shares. Supporter agrees that it shall not, directly or indirectly, except as otherwise contemplated pursuant to the BCA, (a) sell, assign, transfer (including by operation of law), redeem, lien, pledge, distribute, dispose of or otherwise encumber any of the Shares or otherwise agree to do any of the foregoing (unless the transferee agrees to be bound by this Agreement), (b) deposit any Shares into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement or grant any proxy or power of attorney with respect thereto that is inconsistent with this Agreement, (c) enter into any contract, option or other arrangement or undertaking with respect to the direct or indirect acquisition or sale, assignment, transfer (including by operation of law), redemption or other disposition of any Shares (unless the transferee agrees to be bound by this Agreement) or (d) take any action that would have the effect of preventing or disabling Supporter from performing its obligations hereunder.

3. Waiver. Supporter hereby waives (and agrees to execute such documents or certificates evidencing such waiver as SPAC and/or the Company may reasonably request) any adjustment to the conversion ratio set forth in the SPAC Memorandum and Articles of Association or any other anti-dilution or similar protection with respect to the Shares (whether resulting from the transactions contemplated hereby, by the BCA or any Ancillary Document or by any other transaction consummated in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby).

4. Representations and Warranties. Supporter represents and warrants for and on behalf of itself to SPAC and the Company as follows:

(a) The execution, delivery and performance by Supporter of this Agreement and the consummation by Supporter of the transactions contemplated hereby do not and will not (i) conflict with or violate any Law or Order applicable to Supporter, (ii) require any consent, approval or authorization of, declaration, filing or registration with, or notice to, any person or entity, (iii) result in the creation of any Lien on any Shares (other than pursuant to this Agreement or transfer restrictions under applicable securities laws or the Organizational Documents of Supporter) or (iv) conflict with or result in a breach of or constitute a default under any provision of Supporter’s Organizational Documents.

(b) Supporter owns of record and has good, valid and marketable title to the Shares free and clear of any Lien (other than pursuant to this Agreement or transfer restrictions under applicable securities Laws or the Organizational Documents of Supporter) and has the sole power (as currently in effect) to vote and has the full right, power and authority to sell, transfer and deliver such Shares, and Supporter does not own, directly or indirectly, any other Shares.

(c) Supporter has the power, authority and capacity to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and that this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Supporter.

5. Termination. This Agreement and the obligations of Supporter under this Agreement shall automatically terminate upon the earliest of: (a) the Effective Time; (b) the termination of the BCA in accordance with its terms; and (c) the mutual agreement of the Company and SPAC. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, no party shall have any further obligations or liabilities under this Agreement; provided, however, such termination or expiration shall not relieve any party from liability for any willful breach of this Agreement occurring prior to its termination.

Form of Lock-Up Agreement

(Attached)

FORM OF LOCK-UP AGREEMENT

THIS LOCK-UP AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of August 15, 2023, by and between (i) Pono Capital Three, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), (ii) Mehana Capital LLC (the “Sponsor”), and (iii) the undersigned (“Holder”). Any capitalized term used but not defined in this Agreement will have the meaning ascribed to such term in the BCA (as defined herein). Company, Sponsor and Holder may be referred to herein individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”

WHEREAS, contemporaneously with the execution of this Agreement, the Company, Robinson Aircraft Ltd. d/b/a Horizon Aircraft (“Horizon”), Pono Three Merger Acquisitions Corp., a British Columbia company and a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), and certain other persons are entering into that certain Business Combination Agreement (the “BCA”), pursuant to which, subject to the terms and conditions thereof, the Company will redomesticate and continue as a British Columbia company, and Merger Sub will amalgamate with Horizon, with the amalgamated company a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Amalgamation”), and with Horizon’s shareholders receiving shares of the post-redomestication Company’s common stock (the “Company Class A Ordinary Shares”);

WHEREAS, immediately prior to the Closing, Holder is a holder of Horizon Shares and upon the Closing, Holder will be a holder of Company Class A Ordinary Shares; and

WHEREAS, pursuant to the BCA, and in view of the valuable consideration to be received by Holder thereunder, the Parties desire to enter into this Agreement, pursuant to which the Company Class A Ordinary Shares (all such securities, together with any securities paid as dividends or distributions with respect to such securities or into which such securities are exchanged or converted, the “Restricted Securities”) shall become subject to limitations on disposition as set forth herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above, which are incorporated in this Agreement as if fully set forth below, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

1. Lock-Up Provisions.

(a) Holder hereby agrees not to, during the period commencing from the Closing and ending on the earlier of (x) the six month anniversary of the date of the Closing, (y) if the reported last sale price of the Company Class A Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds US $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, right issuances, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any twenty (20) trading days within any thirty (30) trading day period commencing at least one-hundred and fifty (150) days after the Closing, and (z) the date after the Closing on which the Company consummates a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction with an unaffiliated third party that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their common stock of the Company for cash, securities or other property (the “Lock-Up Period”): (i) lend, offer, pledge, hypothecate, encumber, donate, assign, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Restricted Securities, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Restricted Securities, or (iii) publicly disclose the intention to do any of the foregoing, whether any such transaction described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above is to be settled by delivery of Restricted Securities or other securities, in cash or otherwise (any of the foregoing described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii), a “Prohibited Transfer”). The foregoing restrictions shall not apply to the transfer of any or all of the Restricted Securities owned by Holder (I) by gift, will or intestate succession upon the death of Holder, (II) to any Permitted Transferee (as defined below) or (III) pursuant to a court order or settlement agreement related to the distribution of assets in connection with the dissolution of marriage or civil union; provided, however, that in any of cases (I), (II) or (III) it shall be a condition to such transfer that the transferee executes and delivers to the Company an agreement stating that the transferee is receiving and holding the Restricted Securities subject to the provisions of this Agreement applicable to Holder, and there shall be no further transfer of such Restricted Securities except in accordance with this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, the term “Permitted Transferee” shall mean: (1) the members of Holder’s immediate family (for purposes of this Agreement, “immediate family” shall mean with respect to any natural person, any of the following: such person’s spouse or domestic partner, the siblings of such person and his or her spouse or domestic partner, and the direct descendants and ascendants (including adopted and step children and parents) of such person and his or her spouses or domestic partners and siblings), (2) any trust for the direct or indirect benefit of Holder or the immediate family of Holder, (3) if Holder is a trust, to the trustor or beneficiary of such trust or to the estate of a beneficiary of such trust, (4) in the case of an entity, partners, members, managers, investment managers or stockholders of such entity that receive such transfer as a distribution, (5) to any affiliate of Holder, (6) any charitable foundation controlled by the undersigned, its members or stockholders or any of their respective immediate family, (7) any transferee to satisfy any U.S. federal, state, or local income tax obligations of a Holder (or its direct or indirect owners) arising from such Holder’s ownership (including prior to and after the Business Combination) of the Restricted Securities or any interests in the Company, in each case solely and to the extent necessary to cover any tax liability as a direct result of such ownership of the Restricted Securities or any interests in the Company, and (8) any transferee whereby there is no change in beneficial ownership. Holder further agrees to execute such agreements as may be reasonably requested by the Company that are consistent with the foregoing or that are necessary to give further effect thereto.

(b) If any Prohibited Transfer is made or attempted contrary to the provisions of this Agreement, such purported Prohibited Transfer shall be null and void ab initio, and the Company shall refuse to recognize any such purported transferee of the Restricted Securities as one of its equity holders for any purpose. In order to enforce this Section 1, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Restricted Securities of Holder (and Permitted Transferees and assigns thereof) until the end of the Lock-Up Period except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

(c) During the Lock-Up Period, each certificate evidencing any Restricted Securities shall be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form, in addition to any other applicable legends:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER SET FORTH IN A LOCK-UP AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF AUGUST 15, 2023, BY AND AMONG THE ISSUER OF SUCH SECURITIES (THE “ISSUER”) AND THE ISSUER’S SECURITY HOLDER NAMED THEREIN, AS AMENDED. A COPY OF SUCH LOCK-UP AGREEMENT WILL BE FURNISHED WITHOUT CHARGE BY THE ISSUER TO THE HOLDER HEREOF UPON WRITTEN REQUEST.”

(d) For the avoidance of any doubt, Holder shall retain all of its rights as a stockholder of the Company during the Lock-Up Period, including the right to vote any Restricted Securities.

2. Miscellaneous.

(a) Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns. This Agreement and all obligations of Holder are personal to Holder and may not be transferred or delegated by Holder at any time. The Company may freely assign any or all of its rights under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any successor entity (whether by merger, consolidation, equity sale, asset sale or otherwise) without obtaining the consent or approval of Holder.

If to Holder, to: the address set forth below Holder’s name on the signature page to this Agreement.

(g) Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written consent of the Company, Sponsor and Holder. No failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition, or provision of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition, or provision.

(h) Authorization on Behalf of the Company. The Parties acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any and all determinations, actions or other authorizations under this Agreement on behalf of the Company, including enforcing the Company’s rights and remedies under this Agreement, or providing any waivers with respect to the provisions hereof, shall solely be made, taken and authorized by the majority of the Company’s disinterested directors (the “Disinterested Directors”). In the event that the Company at any time does not have any Disinterested Directors, so long as Holder has any remaining obligations under this Agreement, the Company will promptly appoint one in connection with this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, in the event that Holder or Holder’s Affiliate serves as a director, officer, employee or other authorized agent of the Company or any of its current or future Affiliates, Holder and/or Holder’s Affiliate shall have no authority, express or implied, to act or make any determination on behalf of the Company or any of its current or future Affiliates in connection with this Agreement or any dispute or Action with respect hereto.

(i) Severability. In case any provision in this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in a jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified or deleted, as to the jurisdiction involved, only to the extent necessary to render the same valid, legal and enforceable, and the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby nor shall the validity, legality or enforceability of such provision be affected thereby in any other jurisdiction. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the Parties will substitute for any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision a suitable and equitable provision that carries out, so far as may be valid, legal and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision.

(j) Specific Performance. Holder acknowledges that its obligations under this Agreement are unique, recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by Holder, money damages will be inadequate and Company will have no adequate remedy at law, and agrees that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by Holder in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly, the Company shall be entitled to an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Agreement by Holder and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, without the requirement to post any bond or other security or to prove that money damages would be inadequate, this being in addition to any other right or remedy to which the Company may be entitled under this Agreement, at law or in equity.

(k) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the full and entire understanding and agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and any other written or oral agreement relating to the subject matter hereof existing between the Parties is expressly canceled; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not affect the rights and obligations of the Parties under the BCA or any Ancillary Document or under the Insider Letter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall limit any of the rights or remedies of the Company or any of the obligations of Holder under any other agreement between Holder and the Company or any certificate or instrument executed by Holder in favor of the Company, and nothing in any other agreement, certificate or instrument shall limit any of the rights or remedies of the Company or any of the obligations of Holder under this Agreement.

(l) Further Assurances. From time to time, at another Party’s request and without further consideration (but at the requesting Party’s reasonable cost and expense), each Party shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(m) Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may also be executed and delivered by facsimile signature or by email in portable document format in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

(n) Effectiveness. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Holder upon the Holder’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, but this Agreement shall only become effective upon the consummation of the Amalgamation. In the event that the BCA is validly terminated in accordance with its terms prior to the consummation of the Amalgamation, this Agreement shall automatically terminate and become null and void, and the Parties shall have no obligations hereunder.

2.1 Demand Registration.

Subject to this Section 2.1.1 and Section 2.4, at any time and from time to time after the Closing, Sponsor or Investors holding a majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities then issued and outstanding may make a written demand for registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their Registrable Securities (a “Demand Registration”). Any demand for a Demand Registration shall specify the number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. Within thirty (30) days following receipt of any request for a Demand Registration, the Company will notify all other Investors holding Registrable Securities of the demand, and each Investor holding Registrable Securities who wishes to include all or a portion of such Investor’s Registrable Securities in the Demand Registration (each such Investor including shares of Registrable Securities in such registration, a “Demanding Holder”) shall so notify the Company within fifteen (15) days after the receipt by the Investor of the notice from the Company. Upon any such request, the Demanding Holders shall be entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in the Demand Registration, subject to Section 2.1.4 and the provisos set forth in Section 3.1.1. The Company shall not be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of three (3) Demand Registrations under this Section 2.1.1 in respect of all Registrable Securities.

2.1.2 Effective Registration. A Registration will not count as a Demand Registration until the Registration Statement filed with the SEC with respect to such Demand Registration has been declared effective and the Company has complied in all material respects with its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, the offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration is interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the SEC or any other governmental agency or court, the Registration Statement with respect to such Demand Registration will be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders thereafter elect to continue with such Registration and accordingly notify the Company in writing, but in no event later than five (5) days, of such election; provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated to file a second Registration Statement until a Registration Statement that has been filed is counted as a Demand Registration or is terminated.

2.1.3 Underwritten Offering. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders so elect and advise the Company as part of their written demand for a Demand Registration, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an underwritten offering. In such event, the right of any Demanding Holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall be conditioned upon such Demanding Holder’s participation in such underwritten offering and the inclusion of such Demanding Holder’s Registrable Securities in the underwritten offering to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such underwritten offering shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such underwritten offering by a majority-in-interest of the Investors initiating the Demand Registration and reasonably acceptable to the Company.

2.1.4 Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to be an underwritten offering, in good faith, advises the Company and the Demanding Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities which the Demanding Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other Company Common Shares or other securities which the Company desires to sell and the Company Common Shares or other securities, if any, as to which Registration by the Company has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by other security holders of the Company who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the Company shall include in such Registration: (i) first, the Registrable Securities as to which Demand Registration has been requested by the Demanding Holders and the Founder Securities for the account of any Persons who have exercised demand registration rights pursuant to the Founder Registration Rights Agreement during the period under which the Demand Registration hereunder is ongoing (all pro rata in accordance with the number of securities that each applicable Person has requested be included in such registration, regardless of the number of securities held by each such Person, as long as they do not request to include more securities than they own (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i) the Registrable Securities of Investors as to which registration has been requested pursuant to Section 2.2 and the Founder Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the applicable written contractual piggy-back registration rights of the Founder Registration Rights Agreement, Pro Rata among the holders thereof based on the number of securities requested by such holders to be included in such registration, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Company Common Shares or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the Company Common Shares or other securities for the account of other Persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such Persons that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities. In the event that Company securities that are convertible into Company Common Shares are included in the offering, the calculations under this Section 2.1.4 shall include such Company securities on an as-converted to Company Common Shares basis.

2.1.5 Withdrawal. A Demanding Holder may withdraw all or any portion of their Registrable Securities included in a Demand Registration from such Demand Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of the Demand Registration Statement. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the terms of any underwritten offering or are not entitled to include all of their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to withdraw from such offering by giving written notice to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the SEC with respect to such Demand Registration. If the majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration in such event, then such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration provided for in Section 2.1.

2.2 Piggy-Back Registration.

2.2.1 Piggy-Back Rights. Subject to Section 2.4, if at any time after the Closing the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Registration of or an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, by the Company for its own account or for security holders of the Company for their account (or by the Company and by security holders of the Company including pursuant to Section 2.1), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee share option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing security holders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company, or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Company shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to Investors holding Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date or confidential submission date, which notice shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such Registration or offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to Investors holding Registrable Securities in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Investors may request in writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice (a “Piggy-Back Registration”). To the extent permitted by applicable securities laws with respect to such registration by the Company or another demanding security holder, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause (i) such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and (ii) the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All Investors holding Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such Piggy-Back Registration.

2.2.2 Reduction of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back Registration that is to be an underwritten offering, in good faith, advises the Company and Investors holding Registrable Securities proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such Piggy-Back Registration in writing that the dollar amount or number of Company Common Shares or other Company securities which the Company desires to sell, taken together with the Company Common Shares or other Company securities, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to written contractual arrangements with Persons other than the Investors holding Registrable Securities hereunder, the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested under this Section 2.2, and the Company Common Shares or other Company securities, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other security holders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then the Company shall include in any such registration:

In the event that Company securities that are convertible into Company Common Shares are included in the offering, the calculations under this Section 2.2.2 shall include such Company securities on an as-converted to Company Common Shares basis.

2.2.3 Withdrawal. Any Investor holding Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such Investor’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to the Company of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement. The Company (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by Persons making a demand pursuant to written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement without any liability to the applicable Investor, subject to the next sentence and the provisions of Section 4. Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred in connection with such Piggy-Back Registration as provided in Section 3.3 (subject to the limitations set forth therein) by Investors holding Registrable Securities that requested to have their Registrable Securities included in such Piggy-Back Registration.

2.3 Short Form Registrations. After the Closing, subject to Section 2.4, Investors holding Registrable Securities may at any time and from time to time, request in writing that the Company register the resale of any or all of such Registrable Securities on Form F-3 or any similar short-form registration which may be available at such time and applicable to such Investor’s Registrable Securities (“Short Form Registration”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect such request through an underwritten offering. Upon receipt of such written request, the Company will promptly give written notice of the proposed registration to all other Investors holding Registrable Securities, and, as soon as practicable thereafter, effect the registration of all or such portion of such Investors’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with all or such portion of the Registrable Securities, if any, of any other Investors joining in such request as are specified in a written request given within fifteen (15) days after receipt of such written notice from the Company; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section 2.3: (i) if Short Form Registration is not available to the Company for such offering; or (ii) if Investors holding Registrable Securities, together with the holders of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other securities (if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $250,000. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.1.

2.4 Restriction of Offerings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Investors shall not be entitled to request, and the Company shall not be obligated to effect, or to take any action to effect, any registration (including any Demand Registration but not including Piggy-Back Registration) pursuant to this Section 2 with respect to any Registrable Securities that are subject to the transfer restrictions under the Lock-Up Agreement.

3. REGISTRATION PROCEDURES.

3.1 Filings; Information. Whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof as expeditiously as practicable, and in connection with any such request:

3.1.1 Filing Registration Statement. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to, as expeditiously as possible after receipt of a request for a Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement on any form for which the Company then qualifies or which counsel for the Company shall deem appropriate and which form shall be available for the sale of all Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof, and shall use its reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and use its reasonable efforts to keep it effective for the period required by Section 3.1.3; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to defer any Demand Registration for up to sixty (60) days, and any Piggy-Back Registration for such period as may be applicable to deferment of any demand registration to which such Piggy-Back Registration relates, in each case if the Company shall furnish to Investors requesting to include their Registrable Securities in such registration a certificate signed by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or Chairman of the Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be materially detrimental to the Company and its shareholders for such Registration Statement to be effected at such time or the filing would require premature disclosure of material information which is not in the interests of the Company to disclose at such time; provided further, however, that the Company shall not have the right to exercise the right set forth in the immediately preceding proviso more than twice in any 365-day period in respect of a Demand Registration hereunder.

3.1.2 Copies. The Company shall, prior to filing a Registration Statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to Investors holding Registrable Securities included in such registration, and such Investors’ legal counsel, copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus), and such other documents as Investors holding Registrable Securities included in such registration or legal counsel for any such Investors may request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Investors.

3.1.3 Amendments and Supplements. The Company shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements to such Registration Statement and the prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep such Registration Statement effective and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until all Registrable Securities and other securities covered by such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or such securities have been withdrawn or until such time as the Registrable Securities cease to be Registrable Securities as defined by this Agreement.

3.1.4 Reporting Obligations. As long as any Investors shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Investors with true and complete copies of all such filings; provided that any documents publicly filed or furnished with the SEC pursuant to the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System shall be deemed to have been furnished or delivered to the Investors pursuant to this Section 3.1.4.

3.1.5 Other Obligations. In connection with a sale or transfer of Registrable Securities exempt from Section 5 of the Securities Act or through any broker-dealer transactions described in the plan of distribution set forth within the prospectus included in the Registration Statement, the Company shall, subject to the receipt of the any customary documentation reasonably required from the applicable Investors in connection therewith, (a) promptly instruct its transfer agent to remove any restrictive legends applicable to the Registrable Securities being sold or transferred and (b) cause its legal counsel to deliver the necessary legal opinions, if any, to the transfer agent in connection with the instruction under subclause (a). In addition, the Company shall cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Investors, in connection with the aforementioned sales or transfers.

3.1.4 Notification. After the filing of a Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly, and in no event more than five (5) Business Days after such filing, notify Investors holding Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement of such filing, and shall further notify such Investors promptly and confirm such advice in writing in all events within five (5) Business Days after the occurrence of any of the following: (i) when such Registration Statement becomes effective; (ii) when any post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement becomes effective; (iii) the issuance or threatened issuance by the SEC of any stop order (and the Company shall take all actions required to prevent the entry of such stop order or to remove it if entered); and (iv) any request by the SEC for any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement or any prospectus relating thereto or for additional information or of the occurrence of an event requiring the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the securities covered by such Registration Statement, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and promptly make available to Investors holding Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement any such supplement or amendment; except that before filing with the SEC a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, the Company shall furnish to Investors holding Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement and to the legal counsel for any such Investors, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed sufficiently in advance of filing to provide such Investors and legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comment thereon; provided that such Investors and their legal counsel must provide any comments promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days) after receipt of such documents.

3.1.5 State Securities Laws Compliance. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as Investors holding Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may reasonably request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable Investors holding Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this paragraph or take any action to which it would be subject to general service of process or to taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then otherwise subject.

3.1.6 Agreements for Disposition. To the extent required by the underwriting agreement or similar agreements, the Company shall enter into reasonable customary agreements (including, if applicable, an underwriting agreement in customary form) and take such other actions as are reasonably required in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. The representations, warranties and covenants of the Company in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the benefit of any Underwriters, to the extent applicable, shall also be made to and for the benefit of Investors holding Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement. No Investor holding Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement shall be required to make any representations or warranties in the underwriting agreement except, if applicable, with respect to such Investor’s organization, good standing, authority, title to Registrable Securities, lack of conflict of such sale with such Investor’s material agreements and organizational documents, and with respect to written information relating to such Investor that such Investor has furnished in writing expressly for inclusion in such Registration Statement.

3.1.7 Cooperation. The principal executive officer of the Company, the principal financial officer of the Company, the principal accounting officer of the Company and all other officers and members of the management of the Company shall reasonably cooperate in any offering of Registrable Securities hereunder, which cooperation shall include the preparation of the Registration Statement with respect to such offering and all other offering materials and related documents, and participation in meetings with Underwriters, attorneys, accountants and potential investors.

3.1.8 Records. The Company shall make available for inspection by Investors holding Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement, any Underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such Registration Statement and any attorney, accountant or other professional retained by any Investor holding Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement or any Underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, as shall be reasonably necessary to enable them to exercise their due diligence responsibility, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any of them in connection with such Registration Statement; provided that the Company may require execution of a reasonable confidentiality agreement prior to sharing any such information.

3.1.9 Opinions and Comfort Letters. The Company shall obtain from its counsel and accountants to provide customary legal opinions and customary comfort letters, to the extent so reasonably required by any underwriting agreement.

3.1.10 Earnings Statement. The Company shall comply with all applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the Securities Act, and make available to its shareholders if reasonably required, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering a period of twelve (12) months, which earnings statement shall satisfy the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.

3.1.11 Listing. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause all Registrable Securities that are Company Common Shares included in any registration to be listed on such national security exchange as similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or, if no such similar securities are then listed, in a manner satisfactory to Investors holding a majority-in- interest of the Registrable Securities included in such registration.

3.1.12 Road Show. If the registration involves the registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $5,000,000, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Company to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in any underwritten offering.

3.2 Obligation to Suspend Distribution. Upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section 3.1.4(iv), or in the event that the financial statements contained in the Registration Statement become stale, or in the event that the Registration Statement or prospectus included therein contains a misstatement of material fact or omits to state a material fact due to a bona fide business purpose, or, in the case of a resale registration on Short Form Registration pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof, upon any suspension by the Company, pursuant to a written insider trading compliance program adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors, of the ability of all “insiders” covered by such program to transact in the Company’s securities because of the existence of material non-public information, each Investor holding Registrable Securities included in any registration shall immediately discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such Investor receives the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by Section 3.1.4(iv) or the Registration Statement is updated so that the financial statements are no longer stale, or the restriction on the ability of “insiders” to transact in the Company’s securities is removed, as applicable, and, if so directed by the Company, each such Investor will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Investor’s possession, of the most recent prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice.

3.3 Registration Expenses. Subject to Section 4, the Company shall bear all reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with any Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, any Piggy-Back Registration pursuant to Section 2.2, and any registration on Short Form Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.3, and all reasonable expenses incurred in performing or complying with its other obligations under this Agreement, whether or not the Registration Statement becomes effective, including: (i) all registration and filing fees; (ii) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or “blue sky” laws (including fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky qualifications of the Registrable Securities); (iii) printing expenses; (iv) the Company’s internal expenses (including all salaries and expenses of its officers and employees); (v) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the Registrable Securities as required by Section 3.1.11; (vi) Financial Industry Regulatory Authority fees; (vii) fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and fees and expenses for independent certified public accountants retained by the Company (including the expenses or costs associated with the delivery of any opinions or comfort letters requested pursuant to Section 3.1.9); (viii) the reasonable fees and expenses of any special experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration; and (ix) the reasonable fees and expenses of one legal counsel selected by Investors holding a majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities included in such registration for such legal counsel’s review, comment and finalization of the proposed Registration Statement and other relevant documents. The Company shall have no obligation to pay any underwriting discounts or selling commissions attributable to the Registrable Securities being sold by the holders thereof, which underwriting discounts or selling commissions shall be borne by such holders. Additionally, in an underwritten offering, only if the Underwriters require the selling security holders and/or the Company to bear the expenses of the Underwriter following good faith negotiations, all selling security holders and the Company shall bear the expenses of the Underwriter pro rata in proportion to the respective amount of securities each is selling in such offering.

3.4 Information. Investors holding Registrable Securities included in any Registration Statement shall provide such information as may reasonably be requested by the Company, or the managing Underwriter, if any, in connection with the preparation of such Registration Statement, including amendments and supplements thereto, in order to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Section 2 and in connection with the obligation to comply with federal and applicable state securities laws. Investors selling Registrable Securities in any offering must provide all questionnaires, powers of attorney, custody agreements, stock powers, and other documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the managing Underwriter.

4. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.

4.1 Indemnification by the Company. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.1, the Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Investor, and each Investor’s officers, employees, affiliates, directors, partners, members, attorneys and agents, and each Person, if any, who controls an Investor (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) (each, an “Investor Indemnified Party”), from and against any expenses, losses, judgments, claims, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by the Company of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration (provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.1 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned); and the Company shall promptly reimburse the Investor Indemnified Party for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Investor Indemnified Party in connection with investigating and defending any such expense, loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such expense, loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or summary prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company, in writing, by such selling holder or Investor Indemnified Party expressly for use therein. The Company also shall indemnify any Underwriter of the Registrable Securities, their officers, affiliates, directors, partners, members and agents and each Person who controls such Underwriter on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification provided above in this Section 4.1.

4.2 Indemnification by Holders of Registrable Securities. Subject to the provisions of this Section 4.2, each Investor selling Registrable Securities will, in the event that any registration is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable Securities held by such selling Investor, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers and each Underwriter (if any), and each other selling holder and each other Person, if any, who controls another selling holder or such Underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, insofar as such losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, if the statement or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such selling Investor expressly for use therein (provided, however, that the indemnity agreement contained in this Section 4.2 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any such claim, loss, damage, liability or action if such settlement is effected without the consent of the indemnifying Investor, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), and shall reimburse the Company, its directors and officers, each Underwriter and each other selling holder or controlling Person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. Each selling Investor’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited to the amount of any net proceeds actually received by such selling Investor in the applicable offering.

4.3 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any Person of any notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability or any action in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.1 or Section 4.2, such Person (the “Indemnified Party”) shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other Person for indemnification hereunder, notify such other Person (the “Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the loss, claim, judgment, damage, liability or action; provided, however, that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which the Indemnifying Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or action brought against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or action, and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Party if the Indemnifying Party provides notice of such to the Indemnified Party within thirty (30) days of the Indemnifying Party’s receipt of notice of such claim. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense of such claim or action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that in any action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling Persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party against the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written opinion of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (acting reasonably), consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding.

4.4 Contribution.

4.4.1 If the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, and 4.2 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties in connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.

4.4.2 The Parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding Section 4.4.1.

4.4.3 The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4, no Investor holding Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds (after payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such Investor from the sale of Registrable Securities which gave rise to such contribution obligation. Any contributions obligation of the Investors shall be several and not joint. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

5. RULE 144 AND 145.

5.1 Rule 144 and 145. The Company covenants that it shall file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and shall take such further action as Investors holding Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Investors to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 and 145 under the Securities Act, as such Rule 144 and 145 may be amended from time to time, or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC.

6. MISCELLANEOUS.

6.1 Other Registration Rights. The Company represents and warrants that as of the date of this Agreement, no Person, other than the holders of (i) Registrable Securities and (ii) Founder Securities, has any right to require the Company to register any of the Company’s share capital for sale or to include the Company’s share capital in any registration filed by the Company for the sale of share capital for its own account or for the account of any other Person.

6.2 Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the Company hereunder may not be assigned or delegated by the Company in whole or in part, unless the Company first provides Investors holding Registrable Securities at least ten (10) Business Days prior written notice; provided that no assignment or delegation by the Company will relieve the Company of its obligations under this Agreement unless Investors holding a majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities provide their prior written consent, which consent must not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of Investors holding Registrable Securities hereunder may be freely assigned or delegated by such Investor in conjunction with and to the extent of any transfer of Registrable Securities by such Investor which is permitted by the Lock-Up Agreement; provided that no assignment by any Investor of its rights, duties and obligations hereunder shall be binding upon or obligate the Company unless and until the Company shall have received (i) written notice of such assignment and (ii) the written agreement of the assignee, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to be bound by the terms and provisions of this Agreement (which may be accomplished by an addendum or certificate of joinder to this Agreement). This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the Parties, to the permitted assigns of the Investors or of any assignee of the Investors. This Agreement is not intended to confer any rights or benefits on any Persons that are not party hereto other than as expressly set forth in Section 4 and this Section 6.2.

6.3 Notices. All notices, consents, waivers and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when delivered (i) in person, (ii) by facsimile or other electronic means, with affirmative confirmation of receipt, (iii) one Business Day after being sent, if sent by reputable, nationally recognized overnight courier service or (iv) three (3) Business Days after being mailed, if sent by registered or certified mail, pre-paid and return receipt requested, in each case to the applicable Party at the following addresses (or at such other address for a Party as shall be specified by like notice):

6.4 Severability.

Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the Parties intend that there shall be added as a part of this Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible that is valid and enforceable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that any prospective Investor fails to deliver to the Company a duly executed copy of this Agreement, such failure shall not affect the rights and obligations of the other Parties to this Agreement as amongst such other Parties.

6.5 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (together with the BCA, Ancillary Documents, and the Lock-Up Agreement to the extent incorporated herein, and including all agreements entered into pursuant hereto or thereto or referenced herein or therein and all certificates and instruments delivered pursuant hereto and thereto) constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, understandings, negotiations and discussions between the Parties, whether oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing shall not affect the rights and obligations of the Parties under the BCA or any other Ancillary Document or the rights or obligations of the Parties under the Founder Registration Rights Agreement.

6.6 Interpretation. Titles and headings of sections of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of any provision of this Agreement. In this Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires: (i) any pronoun used in this Agreement shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine or neuter forms, and the singular form of nouns, pronouns and verbs shall include the plural and vice versa; (ii) “including” (and with correlative meaning “include”) means including without limiting the generality of any description preceding or succeeding such term and shall be deemed in each case to be followed by the words “without limitation”; (iii) the words “herein,” “hereto,” and “hereby” and other words of similar import in this Agreement shall be deemed in each case to refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section or other subdivision of this Agreement; and (iv) the term “or” means “and/or”. The Parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. Consequently, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the Parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any Party by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.

6.7 Amendments; Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance, and either retroactively or prospectively) only with the written agreement or consent of the Company (after the Closing, following approval of such amendment by a majority of the directors of the Company who are deemed to be “independent” directors pursuant to the applicable rules of Nasdaq and the SEC) and Investors holding a majority-in-interest of the Registrable Securities; provided, that any amendment or waiver of this Agreement which affects an Investor in a manner materially and adversely disproportionate to other Investors will also require the consent of such Investor. No failure or delay by a Party in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof. No waivers of or exceptions to any term, condition, or provision of this Agreement, in any one or more instances, shall be deemed to be or construed as a further or continuing waiver of any such term, condition, or provision.

6.8 Remedies Cumulative. In the event a Party fails to observe or perform any covenant or agreement to be observed or performed under this Agreement, the other Parties may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by suit in equity or action at law, whether for specific performance of any term contained in this Agreement or for an injunction against the breach of any such term or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Agreement or to enforce any other legal or equitable right, or to take any one or more of such actions, without being required to post a bond. None of the rights, powers or remedies conferred under this Agreement shall be mutually exclusive, and each such right, power or remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right, power or remedy, whether conferred by this Agreement or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.

6.9 Governing Law; Jurisdiction. Sections 11.4 and 11.5 of the BCA shall apply to this Agreement mutatis mutandis, with any reference therein to the “Agreement” being a reference to this Agreement and any reference to a “Party” therein being a reference to any “Party” to this Agreement.

6.10 Termination of Merger Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon each Party upon such Party’s execution and delivery of this Agreement at the Closing, and this Agreement shall only become effective upon the Closing.

6.11 Counterparts.

2.	SHARES AND SHARE CERTIFICATES

2.1	Authorized Share Structure

The authorized share structure of the Company consists of shares of the class or classes and series, if any, described in the Notice of Articles of the Company.

2.2	Form of Share Certificate

Each share certificate issued by the Company must comply with, and be signed as required by, the Business Corporations Act.

2.3	Shareholder Entitled to Certificate or Acknowledgment

Unless the shares of which the shareholder is the registered owner are uncertificated shares, each shareholder is entitled, without charge, to (a) one share certificate representing the shares of each class or series of shares registered in the shareholder’s name or (b) a non-transferable written acknowledgment of the shareholder’s right to obtain a share certificate. For a share held jointly by several persons, the Company is not bound to issue more than one share certificate or acknowledgment. Delivery of a share certificate or an acknowledgment to one of several joint shareholders or to a duly authorized agent of one of the joint shareholders will be sufficient delivery to all.

2.4	Delivery by Mail

Any share certificate or non-transferable written acknowledgment of a shareholder’s right to obtain a share certificate may be sent to the shareholder by mail at the shareholder’s registered address and neither the Company nor any director, officer or agent of the Company is liable for any loss to the shareholder because the share certificate or acknowledgement is lost in the mail or stolen.

2.5	Replacement of Worn Out or Defaced Certificate or Acknowledgement

If the directors are satisfied that a share certificate or a non-transferable written acknowledgment of the shareholder’s right to obtain a share certificate is worn out or defaced, they must, on production to them of the share certificate or acknowledgment, as the case may be, and on any other terms that they think fit:

(1)	order the share certificate or acknowledgment, as the case may be, to be cancelled; and

(2)	issue a replacement share certificate or acknowledgment, as the case may be.

2.6	Replacement of Lost, Destroyed or Wrongfully Taken Certificate

(1)

so requests before the Company has notice that the share certificate has been acquired by a protected purchaser;

-4-

(2)	provides the Company with an indemnity bond sufficient in the Company’s judgment to protect the Company from any loss that the Company may suffer by issuing a new certificate; and

(3)	satisfies any other reasonable requirements imposed by the directors.

A person entitled to a share certificate may not assert against the Company a claim for a new share certificate where a share certificate has been lost, apparently destroyed or wrongfully taken if that person fails to notify the Company of that fact within a reasonable time after that person has notice of it and the Company registers a transfer of the shares represented by the certificate before receiving a notice of the loss, apparent destruction or wrongful taking of the share certificate.

2.7	Recovery of New Share Certificate

If, after the issue of a new share certificate, a protected purchaser of the original share certificate presents the original share certificate for the registration of transfer, then in addition to any rights on the indemnity bond, the Company may recover the new share certificate from a person to whom it was issued or any person taking under that person other than a protected purchaser.

2.8	Splitting Share Certificates

If a shareholder surrenders a share certificate to the Company with a written request that the Company issue in the shareholder’s name two or more share certificates, each representing a specified number of shares and in the aggregate representing the same number of shares as represented by the share certificate so surrendered, the Company must cancel the surrendered share certificate and issue replacement share certificates in accordance with that request.

2.9	Certificate Fee

There must be paid to the Company, in relation to the issue of any share certificate under Articles 2.5, 2.6 or 2.8, the amount, if any and which must not exceed the amount prescribed under the Business Corporations Act, determined by the directors.

2.10	Recognition of Trusts

Except as required by law or statute or these Articles, no person will be recognized by the Company as holding any share on any trust, and the Company is not bound by or compelled in any way to recognize (even when having notice thereof) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any share or fraction of a share or (except as required by law or statute or these Articles or as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction) any other rights in respect of any share except an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the shareholder.

3.	ISSUE OF SHARES

3.1	Directors Authorized

Subject to the Business Corporations Act and the rights, if any, of the holders of issued shares of the Company, the Company may issue, allot, sell or otherwise dispose of the unissued shares, and issued shares held by the Company, at the times, to the persons, including directors, in the manner, on the terms and conditions and for the issue prices (including any premium at which shares with par value may be issued) that the directors may determine. The issue price for a share with par value must be equal to or greater than the par value of the share.

-5-

3.2	Commissions and Discounts

The Company may at any time pay a reasonable commission or allow a reasonable discount to any person in consideration of that person purchasing or agreeing to purchase shares of the Company from the Company or any other person or procuring or agreeing to procure purchasers for shares of the Company.

3.3

Brokerage

The Company may pay any brokerage fee or other consideration as may be lawful for or in connection with the sale or placement of its securities.

3.4	Conditions of Issue

Except as provided for by the Business Corporations Act, no share may be issued until it is fully paid. A share is fully paid when:

(1)	consideration is provided to the Company for the issue of the share by one or more of the following:

	(a)	past services performed for the Company;

	(b)	property;

	(c)	money; and

(2)	the value of the consideration received by the Company equals or exceeds the issue price set for the share under Article 3.1.

3.5	Share Purchase Warrants and Rights

Subject to the Business Corporations Act, the Company may issue share purchase warrants, options and rights on any terms and conditions that the directors determine, which share purchase warrants, options and rights may be issued alone or in conjunction with debentures, debenture stock, bonds, shares or any other securities issued or created by the Company from time to time.

4.	SHARE REGISTERS

4.1	Central Securities Register

As required by and subject to the Business Corporations Act, the Company must maintain a central securities register. The directors may, subject to the Business Corporations Act, appoint an agent to maintain the central securities register. The directors may also appoint one or more agents, including the agent which keeps the central securities register, as transfer agent for its shares or any class or series of its shares, as the case may be, and the same or another agent as registrar for its shares or any class or series of its shares, as the case may be. The directors may terminate the appointment of any agent at any time and may appoint another agent in its place.

-6-

4.2	Closing Register

The Company must not at any time close its central securities register.

5.	SHARE TRANSFERS

5.1	Registering Transfers

Subject to the Business Corporations Act, a transfer of a share of the Company must not be registered unless the Company or the transfer agent or registrar for the class or series of share to be transferred has received:

in the case of a share certificate that has been issued by the Company in respect of the share to be transferred, that share certificate and a written instrument of transfer (which may be on a separate document or endorsed on the share certificate) made by the shareholder or other appropriate person or by an agent who has actual authority to act on behalf of that person;

(2)

in the case of a non-transferable written acknowledgment of the shareholder’s right to obtain a share certificate that has been issued by the Company in respect of the share to be transferred, a written instrument of transfer that directs that the transfer of the shares be registered, made by the shareholder or other appropriate person or by an agent who has actual authority to act on behalf of that person;

(3)	in the case of a share that is an uncertificated share, a written instrument of transfer that directs that the transfer of the share be registered, made by the shareholder or other appropriate person or by an agent who has actual authority to act on behalf of that person; and

(4)

any other evidence that the Company or the transfer agent or registrar for the class or series of share to be transferred may require to prove the title of the transferor or the transferor’s right to transfer the share, that the written instrument of transfer is genuine and authorized and that the transfer is rightful or to a protected purchaser.

5.2	Form of Instrument of Transfer

The instrument of transfer in respect of any share of the Company must be either in the form, if any, on the back of the Company’s share certificates or in any other form that may be approved by the directors or the transfer agent for the class or series of shares to be transferred.

5.3	Transferor Remains Shareholder

Except to the extent that the Business Corporations Act otherwise provides, the transferor of shares is deemed to remain the holder of the shares until the name of the transferee is entered in a securities register of the Company in respect of the transfer.

-7-

5.4	Signing of Instrument of Transfer

If a shareholder, or the shareholder’s duly authorized attorney, signs an instrument of transfer in respect of shares registered in the name of the shareholder, the signed instrument of transfer constitutes a complete and sufficient authority to the Company and its directors, officers and agents to register the number of shares specified in the instrument of transfer or specified in any other manner, or, if no number is specified, all the shares represented by the share certificates or set out in the written acknowledgments deposited with the instrument of transfer:

(2)	if no person is named as transferee in that instrument of transfer, in the name of the person on whose behalf the instrument is deposited for the purpose of having the transfer registered.

5.5	Enquiry as to Title Not Required

Neither the Company nor any director, officer or agent of the Company is bound to inquire into the title of the person named in the instrument of transfer as transferee or, if no person is named as transferee in the instrument of transfer, of the person on whose behalf the instrument is deposited for the purpose of having the transfer registered, or is liable for any claim related to registering the transfer by the shareholder or by any intermediate owner or holder of the shares, of any interest in the shares, of any share certificate representing the shares or of any written acknowledgment of a right to obtain a share certificate for the shares.

5.6	Transfer Fee

There must be paid to the Company, in relation to the registration of any transfer, the amount, if any, determined by the directors.

6.	TRANSMISSION OF SHARES

6.1	Legal Personal Representative Recognized on Death

In the case of the death of a shareholder, the legal personal representative of the shareholder, or in the case of shares registered in the shareholder’s name and the name of another person in joint tenancy, the surviving joint holder, will be the only person recognized by the Company as having any title to the shareholder’s interest in the shares. Before recognizing a person as a legal personal representative of a shareholder, the directors may require the original grant of probate or letters of administration or a court certified copy of them or the original or a court certified or authenticated copy of the grant of representation, will, order or other instrument or other evidence of the death under which title to the shares or securities is claimed to vest.

6.2	Rights of Legal Personal Representative

The legal personal representative of a shareholder has the same rights, privileges and obligations that attach to the shares held by the shareholder, including the right to transfer the shares in accordance with these Articles, if appropriate evidence of appointment or incumbency within the meaning of s.87 of the Securities Transfer Act has been deposited with the Company. This Article 6.2 does not apply in the case of the death of a shareholder with respect to shares registered in the shareholder’s name and the name of another person in joint tenancy.

10.

MEETINGS OF SHAREHOLDERS

10.1	Annual General Meetings

Unless an annual general meeting is deferred or waived in accordance with the Business Corporations Act, the Company must hold its first annual general meeting within 18 months after the date on which it was incorporated or otherwise recognized, and after that must hold an annual general meeting at least once in each calendar year and not more than 15 months after the last annual reference date at the time and place as determined by the directors.

10.2	Resolution Instead of Annual General Meeting

If all the shareholders who are entitled to vote at an annual general meeting consent by a unanimous resolution to all of the business that is required to be transacted at that annual general meeting, the annual general meeting is deemed to have been held on the date of the unanimous resolution. The shareholders must, in any unanimous resolution passed under this Article 10.2, select as the Company’s annual reference date a date that would be appropriate for the holding of the applicable annual general meeting.

10.3	Calling of Meetings of Shareholders

The directors may, at any time, call a meeting of shareholders to be held at the time and place as determined by the directors.

10.4	Notice for Meetings of Shareholders

The Company must send notice of the date, time and location of any meeting of shareholders (including, without limitation, any notice specifying the intention to propose a resolution as an exceptional resolution, a special resolution or a special separate resolution and any notice to consider approving an amalgamation into a foreign jurisdiction, an arrangement or the adoption of an amalgamation agreement, and any notice of a general meeting, class meeting or series meeting), in the manner provided in these Articles, or in any other manner as may be prescribed by ordinary resolution (whether previous notice of the resolution has been given or not), to each shareholder entitled to attend the meeting, to each director and to the auditor of the Company, unless these Articles otherwise provide, at least the following number of days before the meeting:

(1)	if and for so long as the Company is a public company, 21 days;

(2)	otherwise, 10 days.

10.5	Notice of Resolution to Which Shareholders May Dissent

The Company must send to each of its shareholders, whether or not their shares carry the right to vote, a notice of any meeting of shareholders at which a resolution entitling shareholders to dissent is to be considered specifying the date of the meeting and containing a statement advising of the right to send a notice of dissent together with a copy of the proposed resolution at least the following number of days before the meeting;

(1)	if and for so long as the Company is a public company, 21 days;

(2)	otherwise, 10 days.

-11-

10.6	Record Date for Notice

The directors may set a date as the record date for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to notice of any meeting of shareholders. The record date must not precede the date on which the meeting is to be held by more than two months or, in the case of a general meeting requisitioned by shareholders under the Business Corporations Act, by more than four months. The record date must not precede the date on which the meeting is held by fewer than:

(1)	if and for so long as the Company is a public company, 21 days;

(2)	otherwise, 10 days.

If no record date is set, the record date is 5 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the first date on which the notice is sent or, if no notice is sent, the beginning of the meeting.

10.7	Record Date for Voting

The directors may set a date as the record date for the purpose of determining shareholders entitled to vote at any meeting of shareholders. The record date must not precede the date on which the meeting is to be held by more than two months or, in the case of a general meeting requisitioned by shareholders under the Business Corporations Act, by more than four months. If no record date is set, the record date is 5 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the first date on which the notice is sent or, if no notice is sent, the beginning of the meeting.

10.8	Failure to Give Notice and Waiver of Notice

The accidental omission to send notice of any meeting of shareholders to, or the non-receipt of any notice by, any of the persons entitled to notice does not invalidate any proceedings at that meeting. Any person entitled to notice of a meeting of shareholders may, in writing or otherwise, waive that entitlement or agree to reduce the period of that notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting of shareholders is a waiver of entitlement to notice of the meeting unless that person attends the meeting for the express purpose of objecting to the transaction of any business on the grounds that the meeting is not lawfully called.

10.9	Notice of Special Business at Meetings of Shareholders

If a meeting of shareholders is to consider special business within the meaning of Article 11.1, the notice of meeting must:

(1)	state the general nature of the special business; and

(2)	if the special business includes considering, approving, ratifying, adopting or authorizing any document or the signing of or giving of effect to any document, have attached to it a copy of the document or state that a copy of the document will be available for inspection by shareholders:

at the Company’s records office, or at any other reasonably accessible location in British Columbia that is specified in the notice; and

-12-

(b)

during statutory business hours on any one or more specified days before the day set for the holding of the meeting.

No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (acting reasonably), consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding.

Execution Version

Date:		August 15, 2023

To:		Pono Capital Three, Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (“PTHR”) and Robinson Aircraft Ltd. d/b/a Horizon Aircraft, a British Columbia company (“Target”).

Address:		643 Ilalo Street, #102 Honolulu, Hawaii 96813

From:		(i) Meteora Capital Partners, LP (“MCP”), (ii) Meteora Select Trading Opportunities Master, LP (“MSTO”) and (iii) Meteora Strategic Capital, LLC (“MSC”) (with MCP, MSTO and MSC collectively as “Seller”)

Re:		OTC Equity Prepaid Forward Transaction

The purpose of this agreement (this “Confirmation”) is to confirm the terms and conditions of the transaction (the “Transaction”) entered into between Seller, PTHR and Target on the Trade Date specified below. The term “Counterparty” refers to PTHR until the Business Combination (as defined below), then to Pubco (as defined below), following the Business Combination. In connection with the transactions contemplated by the BCA (as defined below), Pono Three Merger Acquisitions Corp., a British Columbia company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of PTHR (“Merger Sub”), will amalgamate with Target (the “Amalgamation”). In connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, PTHR will change its corporate name to “Horizon Aircraft Ltd.” or such other name as may be determined by Target (“Pubco”) (the Amalgamation and the other transactions contemplated by the BCA, collectively, the “Business Combination”). Certain terms of the Transaction shall be as set forth in this Confirmation, with additional terms as set forth in a pricing date notice (the “Pricing Date Notice”) in the form of Schedule A hereto. This Confirmation, together with the Pricing Date Notice(s), constitutes a “Confirmation” and the Transaction constitutes a separate “Transaction” as referred to in the ISDA Form (as defined below).

This Confirmation, together with the Pricing Date Notices, evidences a complete binding agreement between Seller, PTHR and Target as to the subject matter and terms of the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates and shall supersede all prior or contemporaneous written or oral communications with respect thereto.

The 2006 ISDA Definitions (the “Swap Definitions”) and the 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions (the “Equity Definitions”, and with the Swap Definitions, the “Definitions”), each as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc., are incorporated into this Confirmation. If there is any inconsistency between the Definitions and this Confirmation, this Confirmation governs. If, in relation to the Transaction to which this Confirmation relates, there is any inconsistency between the ISDA Form, this Confirmation (including the Pricing Date Notice), the Swap Definitions and the Equity Definitions, the following will prevail for purposes of such Transaction in the order of precedence indicated: (i) this Confirmation (including the Pricing Date Notice(s)); (ii) the Equity Definitions; (iii) the Swap Definitions, and (iv) the ISDA Form.

This Confirmation, together with the Pricing Date Notice, shall supplement, form a part of, and be subject to an agreement in the form of the ISDA 2002 Master Agreement (the “ISDA Form”) as if Seller, Target and Counterparty had executed an agreement in such form (but without any Schedule except as set forth herein under “Schedule Provisions”) on the Trade Date of the Transaction.

The terms of the particular Transaction to which this Confirmation relates are as follows:

General Terms

Type of Transaction:		Share Forward Transaction

Trade Date:		August 15, 2023

Pricing Date:		As specified in a Pricing Date Notice.

Effective Date:		One (T+2) Settlement Cycle following the Pricing Date.

Valuation Date:		The earlier to occur of (a) the date that is three years following the closing of the transactions between Counterparty and Target pursuant to a Business Combination Agreement, as will be entered into after the date hereof (as may be further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “BCA”), to be reported on a Form 8-K filed by the Counterparty (the “Form 8-K”) (the “Business Combination”) and, (b) the date specified by Seller in a written notice to be delivered to Counterparty at Seller’s discretion (which Valuation Date shall not be earlier than the day such notice is effective) after the occurrence of any of (w) a VWAP Trigger Event, (x) a Delisting Event, (y) a Registration Failure or (z) unless otherwise specified therein, upon any Additional Termination Event, and (c) the date specified by Seller in a written notice to be delivered to Counterparty at Seller’s sole discretion (which Valuation Date shall not be earlier than the day such notice is effective). The Valuation Date notice will become effective immediately upon its delivery from Seller to Counterparty in accordance with this Confirmation.

VWAP Trigger Event:		An event that occurs if the VWAP Price, for any 10 trading days during a 30 consecutive trading day-period, is below $5.00 per Share.

VWAP Price:		For any scheduled trading day, the volume weighted average price per Share for such day as reported on the relevant Bloomberg Screen “PTHR <Equity> AQR SEC” (or any successor thereto), or if such price is not so reported on such trading day for any reason or is erroneous, the VWAP Price shall be as reasonably determined by the Calculation Agent.

Reset Price:		The Reset Price will initially be the Initial Price. The Reset Price will be subject to reset on a bi-weekly basis commencing the first week following the thirtieth day after the closing of the Business Combination to be the lowest of (a) the then-current Reset Price, (b) the Initial Price and (c) the VWAP Price of the Shares of the prior two weeks; provided the Reset Price shall not be less than $6.00, except pursuant to reduction upon a Dilutive Offering Reset immediately upon the occurrence of such Dilutive Offering.

Dilutive Offering Reset:		To the extent the Counterparty closes any agreement to sell or grants any right to reprice, or otherwise disposes of or issues (or announce any offer, sale, grant or any option to purchase or other disposition) any Shares or any securities of the Counterparty or any of its respective subsidiaries (but for the avoidance of doubt, excluding any secondary transfers), which would entitle the holder thereof to acquire or sell on behalf of the Counterparty at any time Shares or other securities, including, without limitation, any debt, preferred stock, preference shares, right, option, warrant or other instrument that is at any time convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for, or otherwise entitles the holder thereof to receive, Shares or other securities, at an effective price per share less than the then existing Reset Price (a “Dilutive Offering”), then the Reset Price shall be modified to equal such reduced price as of such date; provided that, without limiting the foregoing, a Dilutive Offering Reset (for the avoidance of doubt) (i) shall include any Equity Line of Credit or other similar financing, (ii) shall not include the grant, issuance or exercise of employee stock options or other equity awards under the Counterparty or Pubco’s equity compensation plans or Shares underlying warrants now outstanding or issued in connection with the Business Combination, (iii) shall not include Shares issued in connection with the Business Combination pursuant to the BCA, or (iv) shall not include any Shares or other securities convertible or exercisable for Shares issued pursuant to any other acquisition, merger or similar transaction by the Counterparty or Pubco.

Seller:		Seller.

Buyer:		Counterparty.

Shares:		Prior to the closing of the Business Combination, shares of the Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Pono Capital Three, Inc. (Ticker: “PTHR”) and, after the closing of the Business Combination, common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Pubco.

Number of Shares:		The sum of (i) the number of Recycled Shares plus (ii) the number of Additional Shares, but in no event more than the Maximum Number of Shares. The Number of Shares is subject to reduction only as described under “Optional Early Termination.”

Maximum Number of Shares:		Initially 9.9% of the total Shares outstanding following the closing of the Business Combination, as calculated by Seller (the “Purchased Amount”); upon the occurrence of a Dilutive Offering Reset, a number of Shares equal to the quotient of (i) the Purchased Amount divided by (ii) the quotient of (a) the price of such Dilutive Offering divided by (b) $10.00. For the avoidance of doubt, any adjustment pursuant to a Dilutive Offering Reset shall only result in an increase to the Maximum Number of Shares.

Initial Price:		Equals the Per-Share Redemption Price (the “Redemption Price”) as defined in the Amended and Restated Memorandum of Association, effective as of February 8, 2023, as amended from time to time (the “Memorandum of Association”).

Recycled Shares:		The number of Shares purchased by Seller from third parties (other than Counterparty) through a broker in the open market (other than through Counterparty); provided that Seller shall have irrevocably waived all redemption rights with respect to such Shares as provided below in the section captioned “Transactions by Seller in the Shares.” Seller shall specify the number of Recycled Shares (the “Number of Recycled Shares”) in the initial Pricing Date Notice.

PIPE Subscription Agreement:		The Counterparty and Seller have entered into a subscription agreement for the purchase by Seller of the Additional Shares (the “PIPE Subscription Agreement”), and to the extent that the Seller is unable to acquire all of the Additional Shares prior to the closing of the Business Combination, from time to time will enter into additional PIPE Subscription Agreement(s) for the purchase by Seller of the remaining Additional Shares. As of the date hereof, the PIPE Subscription Agreement is in full force and effect and is legal, valid and binding upon the Counterparty and, to the knowledge of the Counterparty, the Seller, enforceable in accordance with it terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity. Seller shall purchase pursuant to the PIPE Subscription Agreement, Additional Shares in an amount no less than the Maximum Number of Shares less the Recycled Shares; provided, however, that Seller shall not be required to purchase an amount of Additional Shares such that following the issuance of Additional Shares, its ownership would exceed 9.9% ownership of the total Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance unless Seller at its sole discretion waives such 9.9% ownership limitation.

Additional Shares:		The Seller will purchase Additional Shares from the Counterparty at any date prior to the Valuation Date at the Initial Price, with such number of Shares to be specified in a Pricing Date Notice as Additional Shares subject to 9.9% ownership limitations which may be waived by Seller at its sole discretion; provided that such number of Additional Shares that may be purchased from the Counterparty shall not exceed (x) the Maximum Number of Shares, minus (y) the Recycled Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, any Additional Shares purchased by Seller will be included in the Number of Shares for all purposes.

Prepayment Amount:		A cash amount equal to the product of (i) the Number of Shares as set forth in a Pricing Date Notice and (ii) the Initial Price less (y) the Prepayment Shortfall.

Prepayment:		Subject to Counterparty receiving a Pricing Date Notice, Counterparty will pay the Prepayment Amount by bank wire in immediately available funds to an account designated by Seller from (subject to the below exception) the Counterparty’s Trust Account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company holding the net proceeds of the sale of the units in Counterparty’s initial public offering and the sale of private placement warrants (the “Trust Account”), no later than the earlier of (a) one Local Business Day after the Closing Date and (b) the date any assets from the Trust Account are disbursed in connection with the Business Combination; except that to the extent that the Prepayment Amount is to be paid from the purchase of Additional Shares by Seller, such amount will be netted against such proceeds, with Seller being able to reduce the purchase price for the Additional Shares by the Prepayment Amount. Counterparty shall provide notice to (i) Counterparty’s trustee of the entrance into this Confirmation no later than one Local Business Day following the date hereof, with copy to Seller and Seller’s outside legal counsel, and (ii) Seller and Seller’s outside legal counsel a final draft of the flow of funds from the Trust Account one Local Business Day prior to the closing of the Business Combination itemizing the Prepayment Amount due to Seller; provided that Seller shall be invited and permitted to attend any closing call in connection with the Business Combination.

Prepayment Shortfall:		An amount in USD equal to 10.0% of the product of the Recycled Shares and the Initial Price; provided that Seller shall pay one half (1/2) of the Prepayment Shortfall to Counterparty on the Prepayment Date (which amount shall be netted from the Prepayment Amount) and, at the request of Counterparty, the other one half (1/2) of the Prepayment Shortfall (the “Future Shortfall”) on the earlier of (a) the date that the SEC declares the Registration Statement effective (the “Registration Statement Effective Date”) and (b) the OET Date, provided the VWAP Price is greater than $5.00 for any 45 trading days during the prior 90 consecutive trading day period and average daily trading volume over such period equals at least four times the Future Shortfall.

Prepayment Shortfall Consideration:		Seller in its sole discretion may sell Recycled Shares at any time following the Trade Date and at any sales price, without payment by Seller of any Early Termination Obligation (as defined below) until such time as the proceeds from such sales equal 100% of the Prepayment Shortfall (as set forth under Shortfall Sales below) (such sales, “Shortfall Sales,” and such Shares, “Shortfall Sale Shares”). A sale of Shares is only (a) a “Shortfall Sale,” subject to the terms and conditions herein applicable to Shortfall Sale Shares, when a Shortfall Sale Notice is delivered hereunder, and (b) an Optional Early Termination, subject to the terms and conditions herein applicable to Terminated Shares, when an OET Notice (as defined below) is delivered hereunder, in each case the delivery of such notice in the sole discretion of the Seller.

Variable Obligation:		Not applicable.

Exchanges:		Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, New York Stock Exchange LLC or NYSE American LLC

Related Exchange(s):		All Exchanges

Payment Dates:		Following the Business Combination, the last day of each calendar quarter or, if such date is not a Local Business Day, the next following Local Business Day, until the Valuation Date.

Reimbursement of Legal Fees and Other Expenses:		Together with the Prepayment Amount, Counterparty shall pay to Seller an amount equal to (a) the reasonable and documented attorney fees and other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses related thereto actually incurred by Seller or its affiliates in connection with this Transaction, not to exceed $75,000 in the aggregate and (b) expenses actually incurred in connection with the acquisition of the Recycled Shares in an amount not to exceed $0.06 per Recycled Share. Counterparty shall also pay to Seller, a quarterly fee of $5,000 (payable at the Closing Date, prorated to account for any days remaining in the quarter, and upon the first day of each subsequent quarter) in consideration of certain legal and administrative obligations in connection with this Transaction, including, without limitation, legal, structuring and documentation, entity maintenance, escrow management, account set-up, and ongoing audit fees.

Settlement Terms

Settlement Method Election:		Not Applicable.

Settlement Method:		Cash Settlement.

Settlement Amount:		In the event the Valuation Date is determined by clause (c) of the above section entitled Valuation Date, a cash amount equal to (1) the Number of Shares as of the Valuation Date, multiplied by (2) the closing price of the Shares on the Exchange Business Day immediately preceding the Valuation Date. In all other cases, a cash amount equal to the Number of Shares as of the Valuation Date less the number of Unregistered Shares (as defined below), multiplied by the volume weighted daily VWAP Price over the Valuation Period. Unless the Valuation Date is determined by clause (c) of the above section entitled “Valuation Date,” in the event that Seller has delivered a Registration Request at least 90 days prior to the Valuation Date (other than where the Valuation Date results from the occurrence of clause (a) in the definition of Registration Failure), Shares which are set forth in Pricing Date Notices that are neither registered for resale under an effective resale Registration Statement nor transferable without any restrictions pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of Section 5 of the Securities Act, including pursuant to Rule 144 (so long as not subject to the requirement for the Counterparty to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) the volume and manner of sale limitations under Rule 144(e), (f) and (g)) (in either event, “Unregistered Shares”) will not be included in the calculation of the Settlement Amount.

Settlement Amount Adjustment:

A cash amount equal to the product of (1) the Maximum Number of Shares as of the Valuation Date multiplied by (2) $3.00. The Settlement Amount Adjustment shall be paid (x) in the event that the expected Settlement Amount determined by the VWAP Price over the 15 scheduled trading days ending on but excluding the Valuation Date exceeds the Settlement Amount Adjustment, in cash (in which case the Settlement Amount Adjustment will be automatically netted from the Settlement Amount and any remaining amount paid in cash), or (y) otherwise, at the option of Counterparty, in cash or Shares (such Shares, the “Maturity Shares”) (other than in the case of a Delisting Event, in which case the Settlement Amount Adjustment must be paid in cash). In the event that Counterparty is eligible to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment using Maturity Shares, Counterparty will be deemed to have elected to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment in Maturity Shares unless Counterparty notifies Seller no later than ten Local Business Days prior to the Valuation Date that Counterparty elects to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment in cash. In the event the Settlement Amount Adjustment is paid in Maturity Shares then, on the Valuation Date, Counterparty shall deliver to Seller an initial calculation of the Maturity Shares equal to (a) the Settlement Amount Adjustment divided by (b) the volume weighted daily VWAP Price over the 15 scheduled trading days ending on but excluding the Valuation Date (the “Estimated Maturity Shares”). The total number of Maturity Shares to be delivered to Seller by Counterparty shall be based on the volume weighted daily VWAP Price over the Valuation Period (the “Final Maturity Shares”). On the Local Business Day following the end of the Valuation Period, (i) if the Final Maturity Shares exceeds the Estimated Maturity Shares, Counterparty shall deliver to Seller an additional number of Maturity Shares equal to such excess, and (ii) if the volume weighted daily VWAP Price over the Valuation Period multiplied by the Estimated Maturity Shares exceeds the Settlement Amount Adjustment, Seller shall deliver to Counterparty a cash amount equal to such excess. By no later than the start of the Valuation Period, all Maturity Shares shall be registered for resale by the Counterparty under an effective resale Registration Statement pursuant to the Securities Act under which Seller may sell or transfer the Shares and, subject to the receipt of Seller representation letters and such other customary supporting documentation as requested by (and in a form reasonably acceptable to) Counterparty and its counsel, bear no restrictive legend; provided, however, that Counterparty shall not be able to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment with Maturity Shares if following the issuance of the Maturity Shares, Seller’s ownership of Shares would exceed 9.9% ownership of the total Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance unless Seller at its sole discretion waives such 9.9% ownership limitation. To the extent that a Delisting Event occurs during the Valuation Period, the VWAP Price for the remainder of the Valuation Period shall be deemed to be zero and any election to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment with Maturity Shares will automatically revert to a requirement that the Settlement Amount Adjustment be paid in cash such that any further payment that is to be made of the Settlement Amount Adjustment as provided above shall be made by Seller in cash.

Valuation Period:		The period commencing on the Valuation Date (or if the Valuation Date is not an Exchange Business Day, the first Exchange Business Day thereafter) and ending at 4:00 pm on the Exchange Business Day on which 10% of the total volume traded in the Shares over the period, excluding any volumes traded during the opening and closing auctions, has reached an amount equal to the Number of Shares outstanding as of the Valuation Date plus the Estimated Maturity Shares, less the number of Shares owned by Seller that are neither registered for resale under an effective resale Registration Statement nor eligible for resale under Rule 144 without volume or manner of sale limitations (but only counting such Shares that are eligible for resale under Rule 144 to the extent the Counterparty is in compliance with the requirements of Rule 144(i)(2) for the entire period).

Settlement Currency:		USD.

Cash Settlement Payment Date:		The tenth Local Business Day immediately following the last day of the Valuation Period. For the avoidance of doubt, the Seller will remit to the Counterparty on the Cash Settlement Payment Date an amount equal to the Settlement Amount and will not otherwise be required to return to the Counterparty any of the Prepayment Amount and the Counterparty shall remit to the Seller the Settlement Amount Adjustment; provided, that if the Settlement Amount less the Settlement Amount Adjustment is a negative number and either clause (x) of Settlement Amount Adjustment applies or the Counterparty has elected pursuant to clause (y) of Settlement Amount Adjustment to pay the Settlement Amount Adjustment in cash, then neither the Seller nor the Counterparty shall be liable to the other party for any payment under this section.

Excess Dividend Amount:		Ex Amount.

Optional Early Termination:		From time to time and on any date following the Trade Date (any such date, an “OET Date”) and subject to the terms and conditions below, Seller may, in its absolute discretion, terminate the Transaction in whole or in part by providing written notice to Counterparty (the “OET Notice”), no later than the next Payment Date following the OET Date, (which shall specify the quantity by which the Number of Shares shall be reduced (such quantity, the “Terminated Shares”)); provided that “Terminated Shares” includes only such quantity of Shares by which the Number of Shares is to be reduced and included in an OET Notice and does not include any other Share sales, Shortfall Sale Shares or sales of Shares that are designated as Shortfall Sales (which designation can be made only up to the amount of Shortfall Sale Proceeds), any Share Consideration Shares sales or any other Shares, whether or not sold, which Shares will not be included in any OET Notice or included in the definition, or when calculating the number, of Terminated Shares. The effect of an OET Notice shall be to reduce the Number of Shares by the number of Terminated Shares specified in such OET Notice with effect as of the related OET Date. As of each OET Date, Counterparty shall be entitled to an amount from Seller, and the Seller shall pay to Counterparty an amount, equal to the product of (x) the number of Terminated Shares and (y) the Reset Price in respect of such OET Date (an “Early Termination Obligation”), except that no such amount will be due to Counterparty upon any Shortfall Sale; provided, that, Seller shall pay the Early Termination Obligation to the accounts and in the amounts as directed by Counterparty. The remainder of the Transaction, if any, shall continue in accordance with its terms. The Early Termination Obligation shall be payable by Seller on the first Local Business Day following the date of delivery by Seller of the OET Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, no other amounts as may be set forth in Sections 16.1 and 18.1 of the Swap Definitions shall be due to Counterparty upon an Optional Early Termination. The payment date may be changed within a quarter at the mutual agreement of the parties.

Shortfall Sales:		From time to time and on any date following the Trade Date (any such date, a “Shortfall Sale Date”) and subject to the terms and conditions below, Seller may, in its absolute discretion, at any sales price, sell Shortfall Sale Shares, and in connection with such sales, Seller shall provide written notice to Counterparty (the “Shortfall Sale Notice”) no later than the later of (a) the fifth Local Business Day following the Shortfall Sales Date and (b) the first Payment Date after the Shortfall Sales Date, specifying the quantity of the Shortfall Sale Shares and the allocation of the Shortfall Sale Proceeds. Seller shall not have any Early Termination Obligation in connection with any Shortfall Sales. The Counterparty covenants and agrees for a period of at least sixty (60) Local Business Days (commencing on the Prepayment Date or if an earlier Registration Request is submitted by Seller on the Registration Statement Effective Date) not to issue, sell or offer or agree to sell any Shares, or securities or debt that is convertible, exercisable or exchangeable into Shares, including under any existing or future equity line of credit, until the Shortfall Sales equal the Prepayment Shortfall.

Share Consideration:		In addition to the Prepayment Amount, Counterparty shall pay directly from the Trust Account, on the Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the product of (x) up to 300,000 (with such final amount to be determined by Seller in its sole discretion via written notice to Counterparty) and (y) the Initial Price. The Shares purchased with the Share Consideration (the “Share Consideration Shares”) shall be incremental to the Maximum Number of Shares, shall not be included in the Number of Shares in this Transaction, and the Seller and the Share Consideration Shares shall be free and clear of all obligations with respect to the Seller and such Share Consideration Shares in connection with this Confirmation.

Share Registration:		Within 30 days after receipt of a written request of Seller (the “Registration Request”), which request may be made no earlier than the Trade Date (as defined above) and no later than the Valuation Date, Counterparty shall file (at Counterparty’s sole cost and expense) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement registering the resale of all shares held by the Seller, including the Recycled Shares, Share Consideration Shares and any Additional Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earliest of (i) the 90th calendar day (or 120th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the Registration Statement) following the date of the Registration Request (provided, however, that in the event the Commission issues any written rules related to special purpose acquisition companies that would reasonably effect the timing of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and such rules become effective following the date hereof and prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, such number of calendar days in this subsection (i) shall be changed to the 120th calendar day (or 180th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the Registration Statement) and (ii) the 5th Local Business Day after the date the Counterparty is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (each respective date as described above, the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that (x) if such day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business and (y) if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of Business Days that the Commission remains closed for. Upon notification by the Commission that the Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission, within two Local Business Days thereafter, the Counterparty shall file the final prospectus under Rule 424 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended containing a “plan of distribution” reasonably agreeable to Seller.

		Counterparty shall not identify Seller as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the Commission. In the event that the SEC asks that Seller be identified as a statutory underwriter, Seller shall have the option, in its sole discretion and without any breach of this provision or without any Registration Failure deemed to have occur, to remove its shares from the Registration Statement. The Counterparty will use its reasonable best efforts to keep the Registration Statement covering the resale of the shares as described above continuously effective (except for customary blackout periods, up to three times per year and for a total of up to 90 calendar days (and not more than 45 calendar days in an occurrence), if and when the Counterparty is in possession of material non-public information the disclosure of which, in the good faith judgment of the Counterparty’s board of directors, would be prejudicial, and the Counterparty agrees to promptly notify Seller of any such blackout determination) until all such shares have been sold or may be transferred without any restrictions, including the requirement for the Counterparty to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (or Rule 144(i)(2), if applicable) or the volume and manner of sale limitations under Rule 144(e), (f) and (g) under the Securities Act; provided that Counterparty covenants and agrees to make all necessary filings, amendments, supplements and submissions in furtherance of the foregoing, including to register all of Seller’s Shares for resale; provided further, that it shall be a “Registration Failure” if (a) the Registration Statement covering all of the shares described above in this section is not declared effective after the 90th calendar day (or 120th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the Registration Statement) after the Trade Date (provided, however, that in the event the Commission issues any written rules related to special purpose acquisition companies that would reasonably effect the timing of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement and such rules become effective following the date hereof and prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, such number of calendar days in this subsection (i) shall be changed to the 120th calendar day (or 180th calendar day if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the Registration Statement) and or (b) the Registration Statement after it is declared effective ceases to be continuously effective (subject to the blackout periods as indicated above) as set forth in the preceding sentence for more than 120 consecutive calendar days; provided, that (x) if such day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business and (y) if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of Business Days that the Commission remains closed for. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Registration Failure will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Shares that may be transferred at such time under Rule 144 (without volume or manner of sale limitations), so long as the Counterparty is in compliance with the requirements of Rule 144 (c)(1) and (i)(2), if applicable.

		Seller will promptly deliver customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Counterparty, its counsel and/or its transfer agent in connection with the Registration Statement, including those related to selling stockholders, and to respond to SEC comments. If requested by Seller, the Counterparty shall remove or instruct its transfer agent to remove any restrictive legend with respect to transfers under the Securities Act from any and all Shares held by Seller if (1) the Registration Statement is and continues to be effective under the Securities Act, (2) such Shares are sold or transferred pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (subject to all applicable requirements of Rule 144 being met), or (3) such Shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144, without the requirement for the Counterparty to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) or the volume and manner of sale limitations under Rule 144(e), (f) and (g) under the Securities Act; provided in the case of (1), (2) or (3) that Seller shall have timely provided customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Counterparty, its counsel and/or its transfer agent in connection therewith. Any reasonable and documented fees (with respect to the transfer agent, Counterparty’s counsel or otherwise) associated with the issuance of any legal opinion required by the Counterparty’s transfer agent or the removal of such legend shall be borne by the Counterparty. If a legend is no longer required pursuant to the foregoing, the Counterparty will, no later than five Local Business Days following the delivery by Seller to the Counterparty or the transfer agent (with notice to the Counterparty) of customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Counterparty, its counsel and/or its transfer agent, remove the restrictive legend related to the book entry account holding the Shares and make a new, unlegended book entry for the Shares.

Notwithstanding the registration obligations set forth in this Share Registration section, in the event the Commission informs the Counterparty that all of the Shares cannot, as a result of the application of Rule 415, be registered for resale as a secondary offering on a single registration statement, the Counterparty agrees to promptly (i) inform Seller and use its commercially reasonable efforts to file amendments to the Registration Statement as required by the Commission and/or (ii) withdraw the Registration Statement and file a new registration statement (a “New Registration Statement”), on Form S-3, or if Form S-3 is not then available to the Counterparty for such registration statement, on such other form available to register for resale the Shares as a secondary offering; provided, however, that prior to filing such amendment or New Registration Statement, the Counterparty shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all of the Shares in accordance with any publicly-available written or oral guidance, comments, requirements or requests of the Commission staff (the “SEC Guidance”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any SEC Guidance sets forth a limitation of the number of securities permitted to be registered on a particular Registration Statement as a secondary offering (and notwithstanding that the Counterparty used commercially reasonable efforts to advocate with the Commission for the registration of all or a greater number of the Shares), unless otherwise directed in writing by a selling stockholder as to its securities to register fewer securities, the number of securities to be registered on such Registration Statement will be reduced on a pro rata basis among all selling stockholders named in such Registration Statement (except that such pro rata reduction shall not apply with respect to any securities the registration of which is necessary to satisfy applicable listing rules of a national securities exchange). In the event the Counterparty amends the Registration Statement or files a New Registration Statement, as the case may be, under clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Counterparty will use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission, as promptly as allowed by Commission or SEC Guidance provided to the Counterparty or to registrants of securities in general, one or more registration statements on Form S-3 or such other form available to register for resale that portion of Shares that were not registered for resale on the Registration Statement, as amended, or the New Registration Statement, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to seek effectiveness of the New Registration Statement, but in any event no later than thirty (30) calendar days after the filing of such Registration Statement (the “Additional Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to ninety (90) calendar days (or one hundred twenty (120) calendar days if the Commission notifies the Counterparty that it will “review” the New Registration Statement) if such New Registration Statement is reviewed by, and comments thereto are provided from, the Commission; provided, further, that the Counterparty shall have such Registration Statement declared effective within five (5) Business Days after the date the Counterparty is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the staff of the Commission that such New Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review; provided, further, that (x) if such day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business and (y) if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of Business Days that the Commission remains closed for. For the avoidance of doubt, any such amendments to or withdrawal of the Registration Statement or filing of the New Registration Statement shall not constitute a Registration Failure.

(c)	Tax Characterization. Seller shall treat the Transaction as a derivative financial contract for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and it shall not take any action or tax return filing position contrary to this characterization, except to the extent otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or any similar provision of state, local or foreign law.

(d)	Private Placement. Seller (i) is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Regulation D as promulgated under the Securities Act, (ii) is entering into the Transaction for its own account without a view to the distribution or resale thereof and (iii) understands that the assignment, transfer or other disposition of the Transaction has not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act.

Transactions by Seller in the Shares

Subject to any restrictions set forth in this Confirmation, Seller may sell or otherwise transfer, loan or dispose of any of the Shares or any other shares or securities of the Counterparty in one or more public or private transactions at any time.

Other Provisions.

(a)	Rule 10b-5.

	(i)	Counterparty represents and warrants to Seller that Counterparty is not entering into the Transaction to create actual or apparent trading activity in the Shares (or any security convertible into or exchangeable for the Shares) or to raise or depress or otherwise manipulate the price of the Shares (or any security convertible into or exchangeable for the Shares) for the purpose of inducing the purchase or sale of such securities or otherwise in violation of the Exchange Act, and Counterparty represents and warrants to Seller that Counterparty has not entered into or altered, and agrees that Counterparty will not enter into or alter, any corresponding or hedging transaction or position with respect to the Shares.

	(ii)	Counterparty agrees that it will not seek to control or influence Seller’s decision to make any “purchases or sales” under the Transaction, including, without limitation, Seller’s decision to enter into any hedging transactions. Counterparty represents and warrants that it has consulted with its own advisors as to the legal aspects of its adoption and implementation of this Confirmation and the Transaction under the federal securities laws, including without limitation, the prohibitions on manipulative and deceptive devices under the Exchange Act.

	(iii)	Counterparty acknowledges and agrees that any amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Confirmation must be effected in accordance with the requirements for the amendment or termination of a written trading plan for trading securities. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Counterparty acknowledges and agrees that any such amendment, modification, waiver or termination shall be made in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade compliance with the federal securities laws, including without limitation the prohibition on manipulative and deceptive devises under the Exchange Act and no such amendment, modification or waiver shall be made at any time at which Counterparty or any officer, director, manager or similar person of Counterparty is aware of any material non-public information regarding Counterparty or the Shares.

(b)	Repurchase Notices. Counterparty shall, on any day on which Counterparty effects any repurchase of Shares (other than in connection with a Counterparty equity compensation program (e.g., to fund taxes in connection with vested RSUs)), promptly give Seller a written notice of such repurchase (a “Repurchase Notice”), if following such repurchase, the number of outstanding Shares as determined on such day is (i) less than the number of Shares outstanding that would result in the percentage of total Shares outstanding represented by the number of Shares underlying the Transaction increasing by 0.10% (in the case of the first such notice) or (ii) thereafter more than the number of Shares that would need to be repurchased to result in the percentage of total Shares outstanding represented by the number of Shares underlying the Transaction increasing by a further 0.10% less than the number of Shares included in the immediately preceding Repurchase Notice; provided that Counterparty agrees that this information does not constitute material non-public information; provided further if this information shall be material non-public information, it shall publicly disclosed immediately. Counterparty agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, affiliates, advisors, agents and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all losses (including losses relating to Seller’s hedging activities as a consequence of remaining or becoming a Section 16 “insider” following the closing of the Business Combination, including without limitation, any forbearance from hedging activities or cessation of hedging activities and any losses in connection therewith with respect to the Transaction), claims, damages, judgments, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable and documented attorney’s fees), joint or several, which an Indemnified Person may become subject to, as a result of Counterparty’s failure to provide Seller with a Repurchase Notice on the day and in the manner specified in this paragraph, and to reimburse, within thirty days, upon written request, each of such Indemnified Persons for any reasonable and documented legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing for, providing testimony or other evidence in connection with or defending any of the foregoing; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, Counterparty has no indemnification or other obligations with respect to Seller becoming a Section 16 “insider” prior to the closing of the Business Combination. If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted against the Indemnified Person as a result of Counterparty’s failure to provide Seller with a Repurchase Notice in accordance with this paragraph, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify Counterparty in writing, and Counterparty, upon request of the Indemnified Person, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others Counterparty may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding. Counterparty shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding contemplated by this paragraph that is effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, Counterparty agrees to indemnify any Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Counterparty shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding contemplated by this paragraph that is in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding on terms reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person. If the indemnification provided for in this paragraph is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then Counterparty hereunder, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities. The remedies provided for in this paragraph are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this paragraph shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of the Transaction.

(c)	Transfer or Assignment. The rights and duties under this Confirmation may not be transferred or assigned by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, subject to the immediately following sentence. If at any time following the closing of the Business Combination at which (A) the Section 16 Percentage exceeds 9.9%, or (B) the Share Amount exceeds the Applicable Share Limit, if any applies (any such condition described in clause (A) or (B), an “Excess Ownership Position”), Seller is unable to effect a transfer or assignment of a portion of the Transaction to a third party on pricing terms reasonably acceptable to Seller and within a time period reasonably acceptable to Seller such that no Excess Ownership Position exists, then Seller may designate any Local Business Day as an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion of the Transaction (the “Terminated Portion”), such that following such partial termination no Excess Ownership Position exists. In the event that Seller so designates an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion of the Transaction, a portion of the Shares with respect to the Transaction shall be delivered to Counterparty as if the Early Termination Date was the Valuation Date in respect of a Transaction having terms identical to the Transaction and a Number of Shares equal to the number of Shares underlying the Terminated Portion. The “Section 16 Percentage” as of any day is the fraction, expressed as a percentage, as determined by Seller, (A) the numerator of which is the number of Shares that Seller and each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Seller under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder and all persons who may form a “group” (within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of the Exchange Act) with Seller directly or indirectly beneficially own (as defined under Section 13 or Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) (the “Seller Group” ) and (B) the denominator of which is the number of Shares outstanding.

	The “Share Amount” as of any day is the number of Shares that Seller and any person whose ownership position would be aggregated with that of Seller and any group (however designated) of which Seller is a member (Seller or any such person or group, a “Seller Person”) under any law, rule, regulation, regulatory order or organizational documents or contracts of Counterparty that are, in each case, applicable to ownership of Shares (“Applicable Restrictions”), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns, controls, holds the power to vote or otherwise meets a relevant definition of ownership under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Seller in its sole discretion.

	The “Applicable Share Limit” means a number of Shares equal to (A) the minimum number of Shares that could give rise to reporting (other than on Schedule 13D or 13G) or registration obligations or other requirements (including obtaining prior approval from any person or entity) of a Seller Person, or could result in an adverse effect on a Seller Person, under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Seller in its sole discretion, minus (B) 0.1% of the number of Shares outstanding.

(d)

Indemnification. Counterparty agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses (but not including financial losses to an Indemnified Person relating to the economic terms of the Transaction provided that the Counterparty performs its obligations under this Confirmation in accordance with its terms), claims, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), joint or several, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Person arising out of, in connection with, or relating to, and to reimburse, within thirty days, upon written request, each of such Indemnified Persons for any reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever, whether arising out of any action between any of the Indemnified Parties and the Counterparty or between any of the Indemnified Parties and any third party, or otherwise) to which they or any of them may become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any other statute or at common law or otherwise or under the laws of foreign countries, arising out of or based upon the Transaction, including the execution or delivery of this Confirmation, the performance by Counterparty of its obligations under the Transaction, any material breach of any covenant, representation or warranty made by Counterparty or Target in this Confirmation or the ISDA Form, regulatory filings and submissions made by or on behalf of the Counterparty related to the Transaction (other than as relates to any information provided in writing by or on behalf of Seller or its affiliates), or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the Registration Statement or any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement, press release, filings or other document, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Counterparty will not be liable under the foregoing indemnification provision to the extent that any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense is related to the manner in which Seller sells, or arising out of any sales by Seller of, any Shares, including the Recycled Shares or found in a nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from Seller’s material breach of any covenant, representation or other obligation in this Confirmation or the ISDA Form or from Seller’s willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence in performing the services that are subject of the Transaction. If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold harmless any Indemnified Person, then Counterparty shall contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Person as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability. In addition (and in addition to any other Reimbursement of Legal Fees and other Expenses contemplated by this Confirmation), Counterparty will reimburse any Indemnified Person for all reasonable, out-of-pocket, expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation for or defense or settlement of any pending or threatened claim or any action, suit or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Person is a party thereto and whether or not such claim, action, suit or proceeding is initiated or brought by or on behalf of Counterparty. Counterparty also agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability to Counterparty or any person asserting claims on behalf of or in right of Counterparty in connection with or as a result of any matter referred to in this Confirmation except to the extent that any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by Counterparty result from such Indemnified Person’s breach of any covenant, representation or other obligation in this Confirmation or the ISDA Form or from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the Indemnified Person or breach of any U.S. federal or state securities laws or the rules, regulations or applicable interpretations of the Commission. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the completion of the Transaction contemplated by this Confirmation and any assignment and/or delegation of the Transaction made pursuant to the ISDA Form or this Confirmation shall inure to the benefit of any permitted assignee of Seller.

(e)	Amendments to Equity Definitions.

	(i)	Section 12.6(a)(ii) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by (i) deleting from the fourth line thereof the word “or” after the word “official” and inserting a comma therefor, and (ii) deleting the semi-colon at the end of subsection (B) thereof and inserting the following words therefor “or (C) the occurrence of any of the events specified in Section 5(a)(vii)(1) through (9) of the ISDA Form with respect to that Issuer.”; and

	(ii)	Section 12.6(c)(ii) of the Equity Definitions is hereby amended by replacing the words “the Transaction will be cancelled,” in the first line with the words “Seller will have the right, which it must exercise or refrain from exercising, as applicable, in good faith acting in a commercially reasonable manner, to cancel the Transaction,”;

(f)	Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any suit, action or proceeding relating to the Transaction. Each party (i) certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of either party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of such a suit, action or proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other party have been induced to enter into the Transaction, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications provided herein.

(g)	Attorney and Other Fees. Subject to clause (d) Indemnification (above), in the event of any legal action initiated by any party arising under or out of, in connection with or in respect of, this Confirmation or the Transaction, the prevailing party shall be entitled to reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred in such action, as determined and fixed by the court.

(h)	Tax Disclosure. Effective from the date of commencement of discussions concerning the Transaction, Counterparty and each of its employees, representatives, or other agents may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the Transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to Counterparty relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.

(i)	Securities Contract; Swap Agreement. The parties hereto intend for (i) the Transaction to be (a) a “securities contract” as defined in the Bankruptcy Code, in which case each payment and delivery made pursuant to the Transaction is a “termination value,” “payment amount” or “other transfer obligation” within the meaning of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and a “settlement payment,” within the meaning of Section 546 of the Bankruptcy Code, and (b) a “swap agreement” as defined in the Bankruptcy Code, with respect to which each payment and delivery hereunder or in connection herewith is a “termination value,” “payment amount” or “other transfer obligation” within the meaning of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and a “transfer,” as such term is defined in Section 101(54) of the Bankruptcy Code and a “payment or other transfer of property” within the meaning of Sections 362 and 546 of the Bankruptcy Code, and the parties hereto to be entitled to the protections afforded by, among other Sections, Sections 362(b)(6), 362(b)(17), 546(e), 546(g), 555 and 560 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) a party’s right to liquidate, terminate and accelerate the Transaction and to exercise any other remedies upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under the ISDA Form with respect to the other party to constitute a “contractual right” as described in the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) each payment and delivery of cash, securities or other property hereunder to otherwise constitute a “margin payment” or “settlement payment” and a “transfer” as defined in the Bankruptcy Code.

WHEREAS, prior to the consummation of the Amalgamation, certain stockholders of the Company may elect to redeem public shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock” or the “Common Stock”), in connection with the special meeting of the stockholders of the Company to vote on the proposals relating to the Amalgamation set forth in the proxy statement on Form 424B3 (the “Proxy Statement”) to be filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) (the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock that are irrevocably and validly elected to be redeemed, the “Redeemed Shares”);

WHEREAS, pursuant to Amended and Restated Memorandum of Association, effective as of February 8, 2023, as amended from time to time (the “Charter”), and as will be set forth in the Proxy Statement, the Company is, subject to certain exceptions, obligated to redeem (the “Redemption Obligation”) such Redeemed Shares from the Trust Account (as defined below) and pay for such Redeemed Shares the amount specified in the Charter (the “Redemption Price”);

WHEREAS, in connection with the Transactions, Subscriber desires to subscribe for and purchase from the Company, prior to the Valuation Date, as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement (as defined below), as Additional Shares, as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement, that number of shares of Common Stock up to the Maximum Number of Shares as set forth in the Forward Purchase Agreement (the “Subscribed Shares”) for a purchase price of $10.00 per share (the “Per Share Price” and the aggregate of such Per Share Price for all Subscribed Shares being referred to herein as the “Purchase Price”), less the number of Recycled Shares, as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement, provided, however, that Subscriber shall not be required to purchase an amount of Shares, as defined in the Forward Purchase Agreement, such that following the issuance of Shares, its ownership would exceed 9.9% ownership of the total Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such issuance unless Subscriber at its sole discretion waives such 9.9% ownership limitation, and the Company desires to issue and sell to Subscriber the Subscribed Shares in consideration of the payment of the Purchase Price by or on behalf of Subscriber to the Company, all on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, herein contained, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

Section 1. Subscription. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Subscriber hereby agrees that at the Closing (as defined below), to irrevocably subscribe for and purchase from the Company, and the Company hereby agrees to issue and sell to Subscriber, the Subscribed Shares (such subscription and issuance, the “Subscription”).

(a) The consummation of the Subscription contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall occur on the closing date of the Transactions (the “Closing Date”) for those Subscribed Shares that the Forward Purchase Agreement provides will be purchased at such time, with such Closing occurring substantially concurrently with (but not before) the consummation of the Transactions and subject to the terms and conditions of this Subscription Agreement. The purchase of any additional Subscribed Shares as provided for by the Forward Purchase Agreement shall occur subsequently to the Closing Date following the delivery of a Pricing Date Notice.

(b) At least five Business Days before the anticipated Closing Date, the Company shall deliver written notice to Subscriber (the “Closing Notice”) specifying (i) the anticipated Closing Date and (ii) the wire instructions for delivery of the Purchase Price to the Company.

(c) This Subscription Agreement has been duly authorized, validly executed and delivered by the Company, and assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery of the same by Subscriber, this Subscription Agreement shall constitute the valid and legally binding obligation of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws affecting creditors generally and by the availability of equitable remedies.

(d) Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Subscriber set forth in Section 4 of this Subscription Agreement, the execution and delivery of this Subscription Agreement, the issuance and sale of the Subscribed Shares, the compliance by the Company with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of the Company pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which the Company is bound or to which any of the property or assets of the Company is subject, (ii) the organizational documents of the Company, or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its properties that, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), would reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(e) Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of Subscriber set forth in Section 4 of this Subscription Agreement, the Company is not required to obtain any consent, waiver, authorization or order of, give any notice to, or make any filing or registration with, any court or other federal, state, local or other governmental authority, self-regulatory organization (including any stock exchange on which the Common Stock will be listed (the “Stock Exchange”) or other person in connection with the execution, delivery and performance of this Subscription Agreement (including, without limitation, the issuance of the Subscribed Shares by the Company), other than (i) filings required by applicable state securities laws, (ii) filings with the Commission, including the filing of the Registration Statement (as defined below) pursuant to Section 5 below, (iii) filings required by the Securities Act, Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules of the Commission, including the registration statement on Form F-4 with respect to the Transactions and the proxy statement/prospectus included therein, (iv) filings required by the Stock Exchange, including with respect to obtaining shareholder approval of the Transactions, (v) filings required to consummate the Transactions as provided under the Business Combination Agreement, (vi) the filing of notification under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, if applicable, (vii) filings in connection with or as a result of the SEC Guidance (as defined below) and (viii) those the failure of which to obtain would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(f) Except for such matters as have not had and would not reasonably be expected to have a Company Material Adverse Effect, there is no (i) suit, action, proceeding or arbitration before a governmental authority or arbitrator pending, or, to the knowledge of the Company, threatened in writing against the Company or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental authority or arbitrator outstanding against the Company.

Neither the Company nor any person acting on their behalf has, directly or indirectly, at any time within the past six months, made any offer or sale of any security or solicitation of any offer to buy any security under circumstances that would (i) eliminate the availability of the exemption from registration under the Securities Act in connection with the offer and sale by the Company of the Subscribed Shares as contemplated hereby or (ii) cause the offering of the Subscribed Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement to be integrated with prior offerings by the Company for purposes of the Securities Act or any applicable shareholder approval provisions. Neither the Company nor any person acting on their behalf has offered or sold or will offer or sell any securities, or has taken or will take any other action, which would reasonably be expected to subject the offer, issuance or sale of the Subscribed Shares, as contemplated hereby, to the registration provisions of the Securities Act.

(i) No “bad actor” disqualifying event described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i)-(viii) of the Securities Act (a “Disqualification Event”) is applicable to the Company, except for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii–iv) or (d)(3) of the Securities Act is applicable.

There are no material outstanding or unresolved comments in comment letters from the staff of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Commission with respect to any of the SEC Documents as of the date hereof.

There are no shareholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound relating to the voting of any Class A Common Stock or other equity interests in the Company, other than as described in the SEC Documents. Except as described in the SEC Documents, there are no securities or instruments issued by or to which the Company is a party containing anti-dilution or similar provisions that will be triggered, and not fully waived by the holder of such securities or instruments pursuant to a written agreement or consent, by the issuance of the Subscribed Shares.

(p) Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have a Company Material Adverse Effect, the Company is in compliance with all state and federal laws applicable to the conduct of its business. The Company has not received any written, or to its knowledge, other communication from a governmental entity that alleges that the Company is not in compliance with or is in default or violation of any applicable law, except where such non-compliance, default or violation would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Company Material Adverse Effect.

(c) The purchase of the Subscribed Shares hereunder, the compliance by Subscriber with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of Subscriber pursuant to the terms of (i) any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which Subscriber is a party or by which Subscriber is bound or to which any of the property or assets of Subscriber is subject; (ii) if Subscriber is a legal entity, the organizational documents of Subscriber; or (iii) any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over Subscriber or any of its properties that in the case of clauses (i) and (iii), would reasonably be expected to have a Subscriber Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5. Registration of Subscribed Shares.

(a) Subject to Section 5(c), the Company agrees that, within thirty calendar days following the Closing Date, the Company will file with the Commission (at the Company’s sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of the Subscribed Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than ninety calendar days after the Closing Date (the “Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to one hundred twenty calendar days after the Closing Date if the Registration Statement is reviewed by, and comments thereto are provided from, the Commission; provided, further that the Company shall have the Registration Statement declared effective within five Business Days after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the staff of the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review; provided, further, that (i) if the Effectiveness Deadline falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business and (ii) if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of Business Days that the Commission remains closed for. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by Subscriber prior to the filing of the Registration Statement, Subscriber shall not be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement; provided, that if the Commission requests that Subscriber be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, Subscriber will have the opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement upon its prompt written request to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Commission prevents the Company from including any or all of the shares proposed to be registered under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Subscribed Shares by the applicable stockholders or otherwise, such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Subscribed Shares which is equal to the maximum number of Subscribed Shares as is permitted by the Commission. In such event, the number of Subscribed Shares or other shares to be registered for each selling stockholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata, unless otherwise directed in writing by a selling stockholder as to its securities to register fewer securities, among all such selling stockholders (except that such pro rata reduction shall not apply with respect to any securities the registration of which is necessary to satisfy applicable listing rules of a national securities exchange) and as promptly as practicable after being permitted to register additional shares under Rule 415 under the Securities Act, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to amend the Registration Statement or file one or more new Registration Statement(s) (such amendment or new Registration Statement shall also be deemed to be a “Registration Statement” hereunder) to register such additional Subscribed Shares and cause such amendment or Registration Statement(s) to become effective as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than thirty calendar days after the filing of such Registration Statement (the “Additional Effectiveness Deadline”); provided, that the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to ninety calendar days (or one hundred twenty calendar days if the Commission notifies the Company that it will “review” such Registration Statement) after the filing of such Registration Statement if such Registration Statement is reviewed by, and comments thereto are provided from, the Commission; provided, further, that the Company shall have such Registration Statement declared effective within five Business Days after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the staff of the Commission that such Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review; provided, further, that (i) if such day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the Commission is closed for business, the Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended to the next Business Day on which the Commission is open for business and (ii) if the Commission is closed for operations due to a government shutdown, the Effectiveness Deadline shall be extended by the same number of Business Days that the Commission remains closed for. Any failure by the Company to file a Registration Statement by the Additional Effectiveness Deadline or Additional Effectiveness Deadline shall not otherwise relieve the Company of its obligations to file or effect a Registration Statement as set forth in this Section 5.

(b) The Company agrees that, except for such times as the Company is permitted hereunder to suspend the use of the prospectus forming part of a Registration Statement, the Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such Registration Statement to remain effective with respect to Subscriber, including to prepare and file any post-effective amendment to such Registration Statement or a supplement to the related prospectus such that the prospectus will not include any untrue statement or a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, until the earliest to occur of (i) the date on which Subscriber ceases to hold any Subscribed Shares issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement and (ii) the first date on which Subscriber can sell all of its Subscribed Shares issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 of the Securities Act without limitation as to the manner of sale or the amount of such securities that may be sold and without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information required under Rule 144(c)(1) (the earliest of clauses (i) and (ii), the “End Date”). Prior to the End Date, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement as soon as reasonably practicable; file all reports, and provide all customary and reasonable cooperation, necessary to enable Subscriber to resell Subscribed Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement; qualify the Subscribed Shares for listing on the applicable stock exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed and update or amend the Registration Statement as necessary to include Subscribed Shares. The Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to (A) for so long as Subscriber holds Subscribed Shares, make and keep public information available (as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144) and file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act so long as the Company remains subject to such requirements to enable Subscriber to resell the Subscribed Shares pursuant to Rule 144, (B) at the reasonable request of Subscriber, deliver all the necessary documentation to cause the Company’s transfer agent to remove all restrictive legends from any Subscribed Shares being sold under the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 144 at the time of sale of the Subscribed Shares, or that may be sold by Subscriber without restriction under Rule 144, including without limitation, any volume and manner of sale restrictions, and (C) cause its legal counsel to deliver to the transfer agent the necessary legal opinions required by the transfer agent, if any, in connection with the instruction under clause (B) upon the receipt of Subscriber representation letters and such other customary supporting documentation as requested by (and in a form reasonably acceptable to) such counsel. Subscriber agrees to disclose its beneficial ownership, as determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act, of Subscribed Shares to the Company (or its successor) upon reasonable request to assist the Company in making the determination described above.

(c) The Company’s obligations to include the Subscribed Shares in the Registration Statement are contingent upon Subscriber furnishing in writing to the Company a completed selling stockholder questionnaire in customary form that contains such information regarding Subscriber, the securities of the Company held by Subscriber and the intended method of disposition of the Subscribed Shares as shall be reasonably requested by the Company to effect the registration of the Subscribed Shares, and Subscriber shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as the Company may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations, including providing that the Company shall be entitled to postpone and suspend the effectiveness or use of the Registration Statement (i) during any customary blackout or similar period or as permitted hereunder and (ii) as may be necessary in connection with the preparation and filing of a post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement following the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for its first completed fiscal year following the effective date of the Registration Statement; provided, that the Company shall request such information from Subscriber, including the selling stockholder questionnaire, at least five calendar days prior to the anticipated date of filing the Registration Statement with the Commission. In the case of the registration effected by the Company pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, the Company shall, upon reasonable request, inform Subscriber as to the status of such registration. Subscriber shall not be entitled to use the Registration Statement for an underwritten offering of Subscribed Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Company may delay or postpone filing of such Registration Statement, and from time to time require Subscriber not to sell under the Registration Statement or suspend the use or effectiveness of any such Registration Statement if (A) it determines in good faith that in order for the registration statement to not contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed, (B) such filing or use would materially affect a bona fide business or financing transaction of the Company or would require premature disclosure of information that would materially adversely affect the Company, or (C) in the good faith judgment of the majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors, such filing or effectiveness or use of such Registration Statement would be seriously detrimental to the Company, or (D) the majority of the board determines to delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, a Registration Statement and such delay or suspension arises out of, or is a result of, or is related to or is in connection with the SEC Guidance or future Commission guidance directed at special purpose acquisition companies, or any related disclosure or related matters (each such circumstance, a “Suspension Event”); provided, that, (w) the Company shall not so delay filing or so suspend the use of the Registration Statement for a period of more than sixty consecutive days or more than one hundred twenty total calendar days, or more than three times in any three hundred sixty day period and (x) the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such registration statement available for the sale by Subscriber of such securities as soon as practicable thereafter.

(d) Upon receipt of any written notice from the Company (which notice shall not contain any material non-public information regarding the Company) of the happening of (i) an issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement or the initiation of any proceedings for such purpose, which notice shall be given no later than three Business Days from the date of such event, (ii) any Suspension Event during the period that the Registration Statement is effective, which notice shall be given no later than three Business Days from the date of such Suspension Event, or (iii) if as a result of a Suspension Event the Registration Statement or related prospectus contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made (in the case of the prospectus) not misleading, Subscriber agrees that (1) it will immediately discontinue offers and sales of the Subscribed Shares under the Registration Statement until Subscriber receives copies of a supplemental or amended prospectus (which the Company agrees to promptly prepare) that corrects the misstatement(s) or omission(s) referred to above and receives notice that any post-effective amendment has become effective or unless otherwise notified by the Company that it may resume such offers and sales and (2) it will maintain the confidentiality of any information included in such written notice delivered by the Company unless otherwise required by law, subpoena or regulatory request or requirement. If so directed by the Company, Subscriber will deliver to the Company or, in Subscriber’s sole discretion destroy, all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares in Subscriber’s possession; provided, however, that this obligation to deliver or destroy all copies of the prospectus covering the Subscribed Shares shall not apply (w) to the extent Subscriber is required to retain a copy of such prospectus (A) in order to comply with applicable legal, regulatory, self-regulatory or professional requirements or (B) in accordance with a bona fide pre-existing document retention policy or (x) to copies stored electronically on archival servers as a result of automatic data back-up.

(e) For purposes of this Section 5 of this Subscription Agreement, (i) “Subscribed Shares” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the Subscribed Shares (as defined in the recitals to this Subscription Agreement) and any other equity security issued or issuable with respect to the Subscribed Shares by way of stock split, dividend, distribution, recapitalization, merger, exchange, or replacement, and (ii) “Subscriber” shall include any person to which the rights under this Section 5 shall have been duly assigned.

(f) The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Subscriber, (to the extent Subscriber is a seller under the Registration Statement), the officers, directors, members, managers, partners, agents and employees of Subscriber, each person who controls Subscriber (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) and the officers, directors, members, managers, partners, agents and employees of each such controlling person, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”) arising out of or caused by or based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Registration Statement or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by the Company of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 5, except, in each case, to the extent that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are (1) based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of Subscriber expressly for use therein or Subscriber has omitted a material fact from such information or (2) result from or in connection with any offers or sales effected by or on behalf of Subscriber in violation of Section 5(d). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company’s indemnification obligations shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of the Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon the request of Subscriber, the Company shall provide Subscriber with an update on any threatened or asserted proceedings arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 5 of which the Company receives notice in writing.

(g) Subscriber shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, members, managers, partners, agents and employees, each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, members, managers, partners, agents or employees of such controlling persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information regarding Subscriber furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of Subscriber expressly for use therein. In no event shall the liability of Subscriber be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Subscriber upon the sale of the Subscribed Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Notwithstanding the forgoing, Subscriber’s indemnification obligation shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses or action if such settlement is effected without the prior written consent of Subscriber (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) nor shall Subscriber be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or are based upon a violation which occurs in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by the Company.

(h) Any person or entity entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s or entity’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement), which settlement shall not include a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party, and which settlement shall include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

(i) The indemnification provided for under this Subscription Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person or entity of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Subscribed Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

(j) If the indemnification provided under this Section 5 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any Losses, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such Losses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations; provided, however, that the liability of Subscriber shall be limited to the net proceeds received by such Subscriber from the sale of Subscribed Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by, in the case of an omission), or on behalf of such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 5, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 5(j) from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will any party be liable for punitive damages in connection with this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 6. Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earliest to occur of (a) such date and time as the Business Combination Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, and (b) the mutual written agreement of the parties hereto to terminate this Subscription Agreement, and; provided, that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach. The Company shall notify Subscriber of the termination of the Business Combination Agreement promptly after the termination thereof. Upon the termination hereof in accordance with this Section 6, any monies paid by Subscriber to the Company in connection herewith shall promptly (and in any event within one Business Day) be returned in full to Subscriber by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by Subscriber, without any deduction for or on account of any tax withholding, charges or set-off, whether or not the Transactions shall have been consummated.

Section 7. Trust Account Waiver. Subscriber hereby acknowledges that, as described in the Company’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering (the “IPO”) dated February 9, 2023 available at www.sec.gov, the Company has established a trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of the IPO and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the benefit of the Company, its public stockholders and certain other parties (including the underwriters of the IPO), and that, except as otherwise described in such prospectus, the Company may disburse monies from the Trust Account only to (x) its public stockholders in the event they elect to have their shares of Common Stock redeemed for cash in connection with the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, an amendment to its Charter to extend the deadline by which the Company must consummate its initial business combination, or the Company’s failure to consummate an initial business combination by such deadline, (y) pay certain taxes from time to time, or (z) the Company after or concurrently with the consummation of its initial business combination. For and in consideration of the Company entering into this Subscription Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Subscriber, on behalf of itself and its affiliates, hereby (a) agrees that it does not now and shall not at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any assets held in the Trust Account, and shall not make any claim against the Trust Account, arising out or as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to this Subscription Agreement, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “Released Claims”), (b) irrevocably waives any Released Claims that it may have against the Trust Account now or in the future as a result of, or arising out of, this Subscription Agreement, and (c) will not seek recourse against the Trust Account as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that such irrevocable waiver is a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Subscription Agreement, and further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding, and enforceable against Subscriber in accordance with applicable law. To the extent Subscriber commences any action or proceeding based upon, in connection with, relating to or arising out of any matter relating to the Company or its Representatives, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against the Company or its Representatives, Subscriber hereby acknowledges and agrees that its sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account and that such claim shall not permit Subscriber (or any person claiming on Subscriber’s behalf or in lieu of Subscriber) to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. Nothing in this Section 7 shall be deemed to limit Subscriber’s right to distributions from the Trust Account in accordance with the Company’s Charter in respect of any redemptions by Subscriber in respect of Common Stock acquired by any means other than pursuant to this Subscription Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Subscription Agreement to the contrary, the provisions of this Section 7 shall survive termination of this Subscription Agreement.

Nothing contained herein, and no action taken by Subscriber or other investor pursuant hereto, shall be deemed to constitute Subscriber and any other investors as a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity, or create a presumption that Subscriber and other investors are in any way acting in concert or as a group with respect to such obligations or the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement. Subscriber acknowledges that no other person has acted as agent for Subscriber in connection with making its investment hereunder and no other person will be acting as agent of Subscriber in connection with monitoring its investment in the Subscribed Shares or enforcing its rights under this Subscription Agreement.

Exhibit 99.1

Horizon Aircraft, an electric Vertical TakeOff and Landing (eVTOL) aircraft developer, announces the signing of a definitive agreement to go public via a business combination with Pono Capital Three, Inc., a Nasdaq listed company.

Honolulu, Hawaii and Toronto, Canada, August 15, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Pono Capital Three, Inc. (NASDAQ: PTHR, PTHRU and PTHRW), a special purpose acquisition company (“Pono”), has announced the execution of a definitive Business Combination Agreement (the “Business Combination Agreement”) with Robinson Aircraft Ltd. (the “Target Company”), a British Columbia company doing business as Horizon Aircraft (“Horizon Aircraft”). Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, it is intended that the Target Company will amalgamate with Pono Three Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Pono, with the resulting combined company continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pono. Stockholders of the Target Company will receive shares of common stock of Pono (the “Business Combination”). In connection with the Business Combination, it is expected that Pono will redomesticate as a British Columbia company (the “Redomestication”) and change its name to “Horizon Aircraft Ltd.” or such other name as may be determined by the Target Company.

Pono and Horizon Aircraft believe that, if consummated, the Business Combination will promote the expansion of Horizon Aircraft’s business to better position Horizon Aircraft as a global leader in eVTOL aircraft technology.

“Our unique hybrid electric VTOL concept is based on patented ducted fan-in-wing technology that allows our aircraft to fly faster, farther, and carry more payload than many of our competitors,” said Brandon Robinson, CEO of Horizon Aircraft. “We designed the X7 with safety, durability, and operational versatility in mind. The combination of high performance, a tough design, and positive economics has resonated with potential customers. We have received significant interest for its use in a broad number of mission specific tasks such as emergency medical services, aerial firefighting, disaster relief, and various military special operations.”

“Horizon Aircraft’s hybrid electric eVTOL flies 98% of its mission exactly like a normal aircraft and can recharge itself during flight or after its mission,” said Davin Kazama, CEO of Pono. “In addition to obvious performance and safety benefits, this should also simplify the certification process. Ultimately this aircraft will help to redefine the way people and goods are moved at the regional scale, and we are excited to be part of building a better future with Horizon Aircraft.”

Horizon’s versatile technology has already received global recognition, including funding support from the U.S. Department of Defense. Horizon has also received numerous Canadian grants, and the Canadian government recently pledged $350 million to support the country’s sustainable aviation industry.

According to Allied Market Research, the global Urban Air Mobility (UAM) market is projected to surpass $30 billion in revenue by 2031 with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 30%.

Transaction Overview

The transaction values Horizon Aircraft at $96 million, which is expected to result in a combined pro forma equity value of approximately $216 million before expenses, assuming no redemptions in the Business Combination. A Forward Purchase Agreement with Meteora Capital will be utilized in this transaction. The cash proceeds raised in the transaction, after any redemptions and payment of transaction expenses, are anticipated to be used for the further development of the Cavorite X7, Horizon Aircraft’s flagship hybrid electric eVTOL, and for general company operating purposes.

The boards of directors of Horizon Aircraft and Pono have unanimously approved the Business Combination Agreement and the proposed transactions. The closing of the Business Combination and related transactions are subject to approval by Pono stockholders and Horizon Aircraft’s shareholders, and are also subject to other customary closing conditions. It is currently expected that the transaction will close in the fourth quarter of 2023 or the first quarter of 2024, assuming such closing conditions are met.

About Horizon Aircraft

Horizon Aircraft is an advanced aerospace engineering company that has developed the world’s first eVTOL that can fly most of its mission exactly like a normal aircraft while offering industry-leading speed, range, and operational utility. Our unique designs put the mission first and prioritize safety, performance, and utility. Our Cavorite X7 eVTOL is designed to enter the market quickly and service a broad spectrum of early use cases.

Actual results may differ from their expectations, estimates and projections and consequently, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements as predictions of future events. Many factors could cause actual future events to differ materially from the forward-looking statements in this press release, including but not limited to: (i) the risk that the Business Combination may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of Pono’s securities; (ii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the Business Combination, including the approval of the definitive business combination agreement by the stockholders of Pono; (iii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the definitive business combination agreement; (iv) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against any of the parties to the business combination agreement following the announcement of the entry into the business combination agreement and proposed Business Combination; (v) redemptions exceeding anticipated levels or the failure to meet The Nasdaq Market’s initial listing standards in connection with the consummation of the proposed Business Combination; (vi) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the proposed Business Combination on Horizon Aircraft’s business relationships, operating results and business generally; (vii) risks that the proposed Business Combination disrupts the current plans of Horizon Aircraft; (viii) changes in the markets in which Horizon Aircraft competes, including with respect to its competitive landscape, technology evolution or regulatory changes; (ix) the risk that Pono and Horizon Aircraft will need to raise additional capital to execute its business plans, which may not be available on acceptable terms or at all; (x) the ability of the parties to recognize the benefits of the business combination agreement and the Business Combination; (xi) the lack of useful financial information for an accurate estimate of future capital expenditures and future revenue; (xii) statements regarding Horizon Aircraft’s industry and market size; (xiii) financial condition and performance of Horizon Aircraft and Pono, including the anticipated benefits, the implied enterprise value, the expected financial impacts of the Business Combination, potential level of redemptions of Pono’s public stockholders, the financial condition, liquidity, results of operations, the products, the expected future performance and market opportunities of Horizon Aircraft; and (xiv) those factors discussed in Pono’s filings with the SEC and that that will be contained in the Proxy Statement relating to the Business Combination. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that will be described in the “Risk Factors” section of the Proxy Statement and other documents to be filed by Pono from time to time with the SEC. These filings identify and address other important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events and results to differ materially from those contained in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward- looking statements, and while Horizon Aircraft and Pono may elect to update these forward-looking statements at some point in the future, they assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, subject to applicable law.
