Pursuant to the Business Combination Agreement, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, (i) SEAC will merge with and into MergerCo (the “SEAC Merger”) with MergerCo surviving the SEAC Merger as a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of New SEAC, (ii) MergerCo will distribute all of its assets lawfully available for distribution to New SEAC by way of a cash dividend (the “Cash Distribution”), (iii) MergerCo will transfer by way of continuation from the Cayman Islands to British Columbia in accordance with the Cayman Islands Companies Act (as revised) (the “Companies Act”) and convert to a British Columbia unlimited liability company in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (the “BC Act”) (the “MergerCo Domestication and Conversion”), (iv) New SEAC will transfer by way of continuation from the Cayman Islands (together with the MergerCo Domestication and Conversion, the “Domestications”) to British Columbia in accordance with the Companies Act and continue as a British Columbia company in accordance with the applicable provisions of the BC Act, (v) MergerCo and New BC Sub will amalgamate (the “MergerCo Amalgamation”) to form one corporate entity (“MergerCo Amalco”), with the attributes and effects set out in a Plan of Arrangement, substantially in the form attached to the Business Combination Agreement as Exhibit E (“Plan of Arrangement”), (vi) New SEAC and MergerCo Amalco shall amalgamate (the “SEAC Amalgamation”) to form one corporate entity (“SEAC Amalco”) in accordance with the terms of the Plan of Arrangement, and (vii) StudioCo and SEAC Amalco shall amalgamate to form one corporate entity ( “Pubco”), with the attributes and effects set out in the Plan of Arrangement (the “StudioCo Amalgamation” and, together with the MergerCo Amalgamation and the SEAC Amalgamation, the “Amalgamations,” and the Amalgamations together with the SEAC Merger, the Cash Distribution, and the Domestications, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement, the Plan of Arrangement and all other agreements, certificates and instruments entered into in connection therewith, the “Proposed Transactions”).

The Business Combination Agreement provides that, among other things, one business day prior to the date of the closing of the StudioCo Amalgamation (the “Closing,” and the date of the Closing, the “Closing Date”), (i) each Class B ordinary share, par value of $0.0001 per share, of SEAC (the “SEAC Class B Ordinary Shares”) held by Eagle Equity Partners V, LLC (the “Sponsor”) or any of its affiliates or permitted transferees in excess of 1,800,000 SEAC Class B Ordinary Shares will be repurchased by SEAC in exchange for $1.00 and options to acquire an additional 2,200,000 SEAC Class B Ordinary Shares, subject to the terms and conditions of the Sponsor Option Agreement (as defined below); (ii) each of 2,010,000 of the remaining SEAC Class B Ordinary Shares will automatically convert into one Class A ordinary share, par value $0.0001 per share, of SEAC (the “SEAC Class A Ordinary Shares”), with any remaining SEAC Class B Ordinary Shares being cancelled for no consideration pursuant to a surrender letter (iii) each then issued and outstanding warrant to purchase SEAC Class A Ordinary Shares that was not issued to the Sponsor in a private placement (the “SEAC Public Warrants”) will be automatically exchanged for $0.50 in cash pursuant to an amendment to SEAC’s warrant agreement, to be entered into as of the Closing Date (the “SEAC Public Warrant Exchange”), and (iv) all of the issued and outstanding private placement warrants, which the Sponsor purchased in a private placement, will be forfeited and cancelled for no consideration. Contemporaneously with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, StudioCo and certain holders of SEAC Public Warrants (the “SEAC Warrant Support Investors”) entered into investor support agreements (the “Warrantholder Support Agreements”), pursuant to which, among other things, the SEAC Warrant Support Investors agreed to vote in favor of the SEAC Warrant Agreement Amendment (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement). The foregoing description of the Warrantholder Support Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the form of Warrantholder Support Agreements, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.3 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Pursuant to the StudioCo Amalgamation, on the Closing Date, immediately following the SEAC Amalgamation and subject to the terms and conditions of the Business Combination Agreement and pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement, (i) the articles of Pubco will be the articles substantially in the form attached to the Business Combination Agreement as Exhibit B, (ii) the directors of SEAC Amalco immediately prior to the StudioCo Amalgamation will resign and be replaced by the individuals to be designated by the Company prior to the Closing, (iii) the officers of SEAC Amalco immediately prior to the StudioCo Amalgamation will resign and be replaced by the officers of StudioCo immediately prior to the Closing, (iv) each then-issued and outstanding SEAC Amalco Common Share (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) will be cancelled in exchange for one (1) common share, without par value, in the authorized share capital of Pubco (the “Pubco Common Shares”) and the Sponsor’s option under the Sponsor Option Agreement shall convert to an option to receive Pubco Common Shares upon the same terms and conditions as in the Sponsor Option Agreement, and (v) each then issued and outstanding common share, without par value, of StudioCo shall be cancelled in exchange for a number of Pubco Common Shares equal to the StudioCo Issuance Amount, as defined below. The “StudioCo Issuance Amount” means the number of shares resulting from StudioCo Issuance Equity Value divided by $10.70. The “StudioCo Issuance Equity Value” means (i) $4,600,000,000 minus (ii) Net Corporate Indebtedness (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) attributed to the Studio Business (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement), minus (iii) the (A) redeemable non-controlling interests of the type characterized as such in the quarterly report on Form 10-Q of the Company filed on November 9, 2023 (the “November 10-Q”) minus (B) minority investments of the Studio Business of the type characterized as such in Note 4 to the November 10-Q.

As promptly as practicable following the StudioCo Amalgamation, Pubco shall cause its applicable subsidiaries to transfer the Post-Arrangement Repayment Amount (as defined below) in cash to one or more of the applicable subsidiaries of the Company in partial repayment of intercompany financing arrangements between subsidiaries of the Company and subsidiaries of StudioCo. The “Post-Arrangement Repayment Amount” means the Aggregate Transaction Proceeds (as defined below), minus SEAC’s transaction expenses, minus the aggregate amounts payable pursuant to the SEAC Public Warrant Exchange; by way of example, assuming the Aggregate Transaction Proceeds are $350,000,000, the Post-Arrangement Repayment Amount will not be less than $316,500,000.

Upon closing of the Proposed Transactions, it is expected that the Company’s shareholders will indirectly hold approximately 87.3% of the Pubco Common Shares, while SEAC public shareholders, SEAC’s founders and the PIPE Investors will hold approximately 5.7%, 0.7% and 6.3% of the Pubco Common Shares, respectively.

The Business Combination Agreement contains customary representations and warranties by the parties thereto. The Business Combination Agreement also contains an obligation of SEAC and the Company and their respective subsidiaries to not solicit proposals in connection with alternative transactions, subject to certain exceptions.

As promptly as reasonably practicable after the date of the Business Combination Agreement, SEAC, New SEAC (which will become Pubco pursuant to the StudioCo Amalgamation) and the Company will prepare and New SEAC will file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a registration statement on Form S-4 relating to the Proposed Transactions (the “Registration Statement”), which will contain a proxy statement relating (i) to a meeting of the SEAC shareholders to be held to consider, among other things, the adoption and approval of proposals necessary to effectuate the Proposed Transactions and (ii) the SEAC Public Warrant holders meeting to be held to consider the approval and adoption of an amendment to effectuate the SEAC Public Warrant Exchange, and a prospectus that Pubco will use to offer the Pubco Common Shares to be issued in connection with the Proposed Transactions.

Within 30 days following the filing with the SEC of the Registration Statement (the “Warrant Re-Purchase Cut-Off Date”), the Sponsor Support Agreement (as defined below) provides that the Sponsor will purchase, or cause its affiliates to purchase on the open market, in the aggregate, no less than 5.81% of the SEAC Public Warrants issued and outstanding (such obligation, the “Purchase Obligation”). If the Sponsor fails to complete the Purchase Obligation, then the Sponsor shall irrevocably surrender and forfeit, and SEAC shall cause any applicable SEAC Entity (as defined below) to extinguish and cancel an amount of Pubco Common Shares delivered to the Sponsor at the Closing equal to the Cutback Amount. The “Cutback Amount” means an amount of Pubco Common Shares equivalent in value to the total amount of (A) the aggregate then current market price for SEAC Public Warrants paid by the Company, Studio HoldCo, StudioCo or any of their respective subsidiaries in connection with their purchase of any SEAC Public Warrants following December 22, 2023 but prior to the Closing minus (B) $0.50 multiplied by the number of SEAC Public Warrants so purchased.

Under the Business Combination Agreement, the obligations of the parties to consummate the Amalgamations are subject to certain conditions, including (i) the requisite approval by SEAC’s shareholders having been obtained; (ii) the final order (the “Final Order”) of the Supreme Court of British Columbia (the “Court”) pursuant to section 291 of the BC Act, approving the Arrangement (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) and not having amended, modified or supplemented the same in a manner unacceptable to the parties; (iii) the absence of specified adverse laws, rules, regulations, judgments, decrees, executive orders or awards making the Proposed Transactions illegal or otherwise prohibiting their consummation; (iv) the Pubco Common Shares having been accepted for listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC or another national securities exchange mutually agreed to in writing by the parties to the Business Combination Agreement (the “Stock Exchange”); (v) the Registration Statement having been declared effective by the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement being in effect, and no proceedings for purposes of suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement having been initiated or threatened in writing by the SEC; (vi) the Subscription Agreements (as defined below) not having been terminated, all closing conditions to the PIPE Investment (as defined below) having been satisfied or waived and the PIPE Investment Amount (as defined below) having been received and (vii) the required approvals for the Arrangement Resolution (as defined in the Business Combination Agreement) as set forth in the interim order by the Court not having been modified or repealed.

A copy of the Business Combination Agreement is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Business Combination Agreement and the Proposed Transactions does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Business Combination Agreement filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Business Combination Agreement is included to provide security holders with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about SEAC, New SEAC, MergerCo, New BC Sub, the Company, Studio HoldCo, or StudioCo. In particular, the assertions embodied in representations and warranties by SEAC, New SEAC, MergerCo, New BC Sub, the Company, Studio HoldCo, and StudioCo contained in the Business Combination Agreement are subject to important qualifications and limitations agreed to by the parties in connection with negotiating such agreement, including being qualified by confidential information in the disclosure schedules provided by the parties in connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, and are subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that may differ from those applicable to security holders. The confidential disclosures contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Business Combination Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and warranties in the Business Combination Agreement were used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties, rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, security holders should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Business Combination Agreement as characterizations of the actual state of facts about SEAC, New SEAC, MergerCo, New BC Sub, the Company, Studio HoldCo, or StudioCo, and the representations and warranties should only be read in conjunction with the other information that the parties make publicly available in reports, statements and other documents filed with the SEC. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Business Combination Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.

In addition, the Sponsor Support Agreement provides that the number of PubCo Common Shares to be received by the Sponsor shall be reduced in connection with the Cutback Amount, as described above, or if SEAC’s transaction expenses exceed the amounts set forth in the Business Combination Agreement.

The foregoing description of the Sponsor Support Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Sponsor Support Agreement, a copy of which is included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, each PIPE Investor may elect to reduce the number of PIPE Shares it is obligated to purchase under its Subscription Agreement (the “Reduction Right”), on a one-for-one basis, up to the total amount of PIPE Shares subscribed thereunder, to the extent the PIPE Investor (i) purchases SEAC Class A Ordinary Shares in open market transactions at a price of less than the Closing redemption price per share prior to the record date established for voting at SEAC’s shareholder meeting (the “Open-Market Purchase Shares”), but only if the PIPE Investor agrees, with respect to such Open-Market Purchase Shares, to (A) not sell or transfer any such Open-Market Purchase Shares prior to the Closing (B) not vote any such Open-Market Purchase Shares in favor of approving the Proposed Transactions and instead submits a proxy abstaining from voting thereon and (C) to the extent such investor has the right to have all or some of its Open-Market Purchase Shares redeemed for cash in connection with the Closing, not exercise any such redemption rights; and (ii) beneficially owned any SEAC Class A Ordinary Shares as of the date of its Subscription Agreement (the “Currently Owned Shares”), but only if the PIPE Investor agrees, with respect to such Currently Owned Shares, to (A) not to sell or transfer and such Currently Owned Shares prior to the Closing, (B) vote all of its Currently Owned Shares in favor of approving the Proposed Transactions at SEAC’s shareholder meeting, and (C) to the extent such investor has the right to have all or some of its Currently Owned Shares redeemed for cash in connection with the Closing, not exercise any such redemption rights. A Pipe Investor that exercises Reduction Rights in accordance with the foregoing will receive an additional 0.1111 PubCo Common Share per PubCo Common Share with respect to which the Reduction Right is exercised.
