(y)would result in Seller owning less than 9.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (calculated immediately following such Transfer) at any time prior to the second anniversary of the Closing;

 

provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (in all cases, subject to Applicable Law):

(B)from and after the Closing, any Exempt Transfer.

 

(b)Notwithstanding Section 6.06(a), without Buyer’s prior written consent, Seller shall not Transfer 5% or more of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock to a Competitor; provided, however, that Buyer’s prior written consent shall not be required with respect to any:

Section 6.07         Buyer Transfer Restrictions.

 

(a)As an essential inducement to Seller and the Company to enter into this Agreement, Buyer agrees that without the prior written consent of Seller and the Company, Buyer shall not Transfer any shares of Common Stock prior to the second anniversary of the Closing; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (in all cases, subject to Applicable Law):

 

(i)Transfers between a Buyer and any of its Affiliates so long as, prior to any such Transfer, and as a condition to the effectiveness of any such Transfer, such Affiliate executes and delivers to the Company a joinder to this Agreement agreeing to fulfill the obligations of Buyer under this Section 6.07, with respect to such shares of Common Stock;

 

(ii)in the event that Buyer ownership exceeds 30% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Stock as a result of share repurchases or buybacks by the Company, Transfers to the extent necessary for NLI to own less than 30% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Common Stock; or

 

(iii)any Exempt Transfer.

 

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the Company’s prior written consent, Buyer shall not Transfer any shares of Common Stock at any time to a Person (other than an Affiliate of Buyer pursuant to Section 6.07(a)(i) or pursuant to an Exempt Transfer) that would, to Buyer’s Knowledge, following such Transfer, beneficially own 5% or more of the issued and outstanding Common Stock.

 

Section 6.08         Right of First Offer.

 

(a)From and after the Closing, in the event Seller desires to Transfer, in a single transaction or series of related transactions within a three-month period, 10% or more of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (the “ROFO Shares”) to a third party, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a written notice (a “ROFO Sale Notice”) of its intention to Transfer the ROFO Shares that sets forth, in reasonable detail to the extent then known by Seller, the proposed material terms and conditions of such contemplated Transfer and an invitation for Buyer to make an offer to purchase the ROFO Shares. Within 15 days following the date of delivery of the ROFO Sale Notice to Buyer, either Buyer or one its Affiliates (as Buyer may determine) (the “ROFO Buyer”) may deliver a written offer to purchase the ROFO Shares (the “Purchase Notice”), specifying the material terms and conditions, including the price (which shall be in cash) to be paid, on which it would be willing to purchase, all of the ROFO Shares.

 

(b)Within 15 days of the delivery of the Purchase Notice, (the “Acceptance or Rejection Period”), Seller shall inform the ROFO Buyer if the terms set forth in the Purchase Notice are acceptable to Seller (an “Acceptance Notice”). In the event that Seller delivers an Acceptance Notice within the Acceptance or Rejection Period, Seller and ROFO Buyer shall (and Buyer shall cause ROFO Buyer to) cooperate, acting reasonably and in good faith to effect the purchase of the ROFO Shares on the terms set forth in the Purchase Notice as promptly as reasonably practicable (subject to obtaining all required regulatory approvals and Buyer’s compliance with Section 3.1(c) of the Stockholder’s Agreement).

  

36

 

 

(c)In the event that the ROFO Buyer does not deliver a Purchase Notice to elect to purchase the ROFO Shares within the 15-day period contemplated by Section 6.08(a), then Seller shall be entitled to Transfer the ROFO Shares to a third party after such 15-day period. In the event that:

 

(i)Seller does not deliver an Acceptance Notice accepting the terms set forth in the Purchase Notice within the Acceptance or Rejection Period;

 

(ii)Seller informs ROFO Buyer that Seller does not accept the terms set forth in the Purchase Notice during the Acceptance or Rejection Period; or

 

(iii)Seller delivers an Acceptance Notice accepting the terms set forth in the Purchase Notice within the Acceptance or Rejection Period, but Seller and ROFO Buyer do not consummate the purchase contemplated thereby within 30 days (subject to any extension necessary to obtain required regulatory approvals and to otherwise satisfy Buyer’s obligations pursuant to Section 3.1(c) of the Stockholder’s Agreement),

 

then Seller shall be entitled to Transfer the ROFO Shares to a third party at a price that is no less than the price set forth in the Purchase Notice.

 

(d)This Section 6.08 shall not apply to any Exempt Transfer or any sale of Common Stock by Seller into the market in broker transactions or marketed or unmarked underwritten offerings or block trades.

 

Section 6.09         Voting.

 

(a)From and after the Closing, at any meeting of stockholders of the Company involving the election of directors (or if action is taken by written consent of stockholders of the Company in lieu of a meeting in respect of an election of directors), Seller shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to, vote, or cause to be voted (including, if applicable, by written consent), all shares of capital stock of the Company owned by Seller and its controlled Affiliates affirmatively in favor of the election of any director designated by Buyer to be nominated for election as a director of the Company in accordance with the Stockholder’s Agreement.

 

(b)From and after the Closing, at any meeting of stockholders of the Company involving the election of directors (or if action is taken by written consent of stockholders of the Company in lieu of a meeting in respect of an election of directors), Buyer shall, and shall cause its controlled Affiliates to, vote, or cause to be voted (including, if applicable, by written consent), all shares of capital stock of the Company owned by Buyer and its controlled Affiliates affirmatively in favor of the election of any director designated by Seller to be nominated for election as a director of the Company in accordance with and pursuant to the Separation Agreement.

 

37

 

 

Section 6.10         Secondment Agreement.

 

As promptly as practicable after the date hereof, with the goal of finalizing the same within sixty (60) days, the Company and Buyer will cooperate and negotiate in good faith the terms of the Secondment Agreement, which agreement shall govern the rights and obligations of Buyer and the Company with respect to the Secondees (as defined in the Stockholder’s Agreement). The Secondment Agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory, in form and substance, to each of Buyer and the Company.

If not provided previously, at least thirty (30) days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, Buyer shall provide the Company with written notice identifying by name and title the initial NLI Designees (as defined in the Stockholder’s Agreement) that it intends to designate pursuant to Section 2.1 of the Stockholder’s Agreement following the Closing. From and after such time as Buyer identifies the initial NLI Designees, Buyer shall, and shall cause such NLI Designees to, sign such further documents and do and perform and cause to be done such further acts and things as the Company may reasonably request to the extent necessary to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of Section 2.1 of the Stockholder’s Agreement.

Section 9.02         Amendments and Waivers.

  

(a)Any provision of this Agreement may be amended, supplemented or waived in any and all respects at any time prior to the Closing, if, but only if, such amendment, supplement or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment or supplement, by each Party or, in the case of a waiver, by each Party against whom the waiver is to be effective.

(iii)waive compliance by any other Party with any of the agreements contained herein.

 

(c)No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.

 

Section 9.03         Costs and Expenses.

 

(a)Seller shall reimburse, or cause to be reimbursed, on a quarterly basis, all third-party out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Company in connection with this Agreement, the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, including the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and expenses of the Company’s counsel and the Company’s accountants, and any filing fees incident to this Agreement or the Ancillary Agreements, including as required by Section 6.02(h); provided, that the Company has provided Seller with reasonable supporting detail with respect to such amounts.

 

(b)Except as otherwise provided herein (including pursuant to clause (a) above), all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement, the Sale and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost or expense.

44

 

 

(b)No Party may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the consent of each other Party, except that with prior written notice to Seller and the Company, Buyer may transfer or assign its rights under this Agreement to one or more of its Affiliates; provided that, such transfer or assignment would not be reasonably likely to (i) result in any delay in the Parties’ ability to obtain the Antitrust Approval, CFIUS Approval or Required Regulated Entity Approvals or (ii) prevent, impede or delay the ability of the Parties to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, further, that such transfer or assignment shall not relieve Buyer of its obligations hereunder.

Section 9.05         Governing Law.

 

This Agreement and any other document or instrument delivered pursuant hereto, and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract or tort) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution, termination, performance or nonperformance of this Agreement (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement or as an inducement to enter into this Agreement) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of law rules of such state.

 

Section 9.06         Jurisdiction.

 

The Parties agree that any Action seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be brought exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery shall not have or declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court located in the State of Delaware or other Delaware state court) (the “Chosen Courts”), and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably consents to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such Action and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such Action in any such Chosen Court or that any such Action brought in any such Chosen Court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such Action may be served on any Party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such Chosen Court. Buyer irrevocably designates its Subsidiary, Nippon Life Americas, Inc., located at 101 Park Avenue, New York, NY 10178, as its authorized agent and attorney-in-fact for the acceptance of service of process and making an appearance on its behalf in any such Action and for the taking of all such acts as may be necessary or appropriate in order to confer jurisdiction over it in the Chosen Courts and Buyer stipulates that such consent and appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party also irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that service of process on such Party may be made on such Party as provided in Section 9.01, and that service made in such manner shall be deemed effective service of process on such Party and shall have the same legal force and effect as if served upon such Party personally within the State of Delaware. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit or prohibit service of process by any other manner as may be permitted by Applicable Law.

 

45

 

 

Section 9.07         Waiver of Jury Trial.

  

EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE ANCILLARY AGREEMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY. EACH PARTY HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT IS KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVING THE RIGHT TO DEMAND TRIAL BY JURY.

 

Section 9.08         Counterparts; Effectiveness.

 

This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each Party shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by all of the other Parties provided that a .pdf signature shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and effect as if the signature were an original. Until and unless each Party has received a counterpart hereof signed by the other Parties, this Agreement shall have no effect and no Party shall have any right or obligation hereunder (whether by virtue of any other oral or written agreement or other communication).

 

Section 9.09         Entire Agreement.

 

This Agreement, the Ancillary Agreements and the Letter Agreement (and all exhibits and schedules hereto and thereto) constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, whether oral and written, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

 

Section 9.10         Severability.

 

If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable by any Applicable Law, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby are not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such a determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, 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 to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law and in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

 

Section 9.11         Specific Performance; Remedies.

 

The Parties agree that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its specified terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof to which such Party is entitled at law or in equity. Each party agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that (a) the other Party has an adequate remedy at law or (b) an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. Neither Party shall be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

 

46

 

 

Section 9.12         Reserves.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any other agreement, document or instrument, each of Buyer and Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Company and its Affiliates make no representations or warranties with respect to, and nothing contained in this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or in any other agreement, document or instrument to be delivered in connection herewith is intended or shall be construed to be a representation or warranty, express or implied, of the Company or any of its Affiliates, for any purpose of this Agreement, any Ancillary Agreement or any other agreement, document or instrument to be delivered in connection herewith, in respect of:

 

(a)the adequacy or sufficiency of reserves of the Company or any of its Affiliates;

 

(b)the effect of the adequacy or sufficiency of reserves of the Company or any of its Affiliates on any line item, asset, liability or equity amount on any financial or other document;

 

(c)whether or not reserves of the Company or any of its Affiliates were determined in accordance with any actuarial, statutory, regulatory or other standard; or

 

(d)the collectability of any amounts under any Reinsurance Agreement.

 

Furthermore, each of Buyer and Seller acknowledges and agrees that no fact, condition, development or issue relating to the adequacy or sufficiency of reserves of the Company or any of its Affiliates may be used, directly or indirectly, to demonstrate or support the breach or violation of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of or by the Company or its Affiliates contained in this Agreement or any other agreement, document or instrument delivered or to be delivered in connection herewith.

 

Section 9.13         Controlling Language of this Agreement.

 

This Agreement has been negotiated and executed in the English language, and this English language execution version shall govern in all respects and prevail over any translation of the same, including for the purposes of enforcing this Agreement in any court or other tribunal.

recitals

 

WHEREAS, the Parties entered into the Separation Agreement on September 14, 2022 (the “Separation Agreement”);

 

WHEREAS, AIG has entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which AIG has agreed to sell to Nippon Life Insurance Co. approximately 20% of the outstanding Common Stock, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in such agreement (the “Proposed Transaction”); and

 

WHEREAS, in connection with the Proposed Transaction, the Parties desire to amend certain provisions of the Separation Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree that the Separation Agreement is amended as follows:

 

1.            Section 1.1. The definition of “Navy Threshold Date” is hereby inserted into Section 1.1 of the Separation Agreement and reads in full as follows:

 

Navy Threshold Date” means the earlier of (i) the date of the closing of the sale by AIG to Nippon Life Insurance Co. (“Nippon”) of approximately 20% of the outstanding Common Stock pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 16, 2024, among Corebridge, AIG and Nippon, as it may be amended from time to time, and (ii) the date on which AIG ceases to beneficially own at least 25% of the outstanding Common Stock.

 

 

 

 

2.            Section 4.1(e). Section 4.1(e) of the Separation Agreement is hereby amended and restated to read in full as follows:

 

(e)           Subject to Sections 4.1(g) and 4.1(h), AIG shall have the right to include on each Corebridge Slate the following number of Directors, which shall each be designated as “AIG Directors”:

 

(i)             Until the Majority Holder Date, a majority of the Directors on the Corebridge Board (or such lower number as AIG shall determine); and

 

(ii)            After the Majority Holder Date and until the Fourth Threshold Date: a number of Directors equal to (x) the total number of Directors entitled to serve on the Corebridge Board multiplied by (y) the quotient obtained by dividing the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by AIG by the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding, rounded up to the nearest whole number; and

 

(iii)            After the Fourth Threshold Date, none.

 

3.            Sections 4.1(g) and (h). The following shall be inserted as Sections 4.1(g) and (h) of the Separation Agreement:

 

(g)           If at any time on or after the Navy Threshold Date, AIG’s beneficial ownership percentage of Corebridge shall decrease such that the number of AIG Directors to which AIG is entitled to include on each Corebridge Slate pursuant to Section 4.1(e) is less than the number of AIG Directors on the Corebridge Board, then AIG will cause a number of AIG Directors to resign from the Board within 60 days of such decrease so that the number of AIG Directors remaining on the Corebridge Board following such resignations represents the number of AIG Directors to which AIG is entitled to include on each Corebridge Slate pursuant to Section 4.1(e).

 

(h)           Without limiting AIG rights under Section 4.1(e), if at any time on or after the Navy Threshold Date, Corebridge is required by Applicable Law to increase the number of Independent Directors then serving on the Corebridge Board and at least one non-independent AIG Director serves as a Director on the Corebridge Board at such time, at the request of Corebridge, AIG shall designate a number of Independent Directors as necessary for Corebridge to comply with Applicable Law as AIG Directors hereunder, and upon election of such individuals to the Corebridge Board, cause an equal number of non-independent AIG Directors serving as Directors on the Corebridge Board at such time to resign from the Corebridge Board.

4.            Section 5.1(a). Section 5.1(a) of the Separation Agreement is hereby amended by deleting “First Threshold Date” and replacing it with “Navy Threshold Date”.

 

This Separation Agreement Amendment is limited precisely as written and except as set forth herein, the Separation Agreement shall continue in effect, unmodified, in accordance with its terms. Any amendment to this Separation Agreement Amendment shall require the prior written consent of each of AIG and Corebridge.
