Because certain elements of the Participation Right, such as the notice provisions, were not compatible with raising capital in a public offering, in a written waiver dated August 18, 2020 and fully executed on August 19, 2020, clirSPV LLC waived its right to exercise the Participation Right in connection with the public offering the Company completed on August 24, 2020.
