On November 9, 2021, in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company, EverArc and the EverArc Founder Entity entered into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement (the “Founder Assignment Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company assumed, and agreed to pay, perform, satisfy and discharge in full, all of EverArc’s liabilities and obligations under the Founder Advisory Agreement.
In exchange for the services provided to the Company, including strategic and capital allocation advice, the EverArc Founder Entity is entitled to receive both the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount and the Variable Annual Advisory Amount from the Company.

The Fixed Annual Advisory Amount will be equal to 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares (1.5% of 157,137,410 Ordinary Shares outstanding) for each year through December 31, 2027 and valued using the period end volume weighted average closing share price for ten consecutive trading days of Ordinary Shares. The Variable Annual Advisory Amount for each year through December 31, 2031 is based on the appreciation of the market price of Ordinary Shares if such market price exceeds certain trading price minimums at the end of each reporting period and is valued using a Monte Carlo simulation model.
For 2022, the average price was $8.86 per Ordinary Share. The EverArc Founder Entity was entitled to receive the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount of 2,357,061 Ordinary Shares or a value of $20.9 million, based on average price of $8.86 per Ordinary Share (the “2022 Fixed Amount”). The EverArc Founder Entity did not qualify to receive the Variable Annual Advisory Amount as the average price of $8.86 per Ordinary Share for 2022 was lower than the average price of $13.63 per Ordinary Share established in 2021. Per the Founder Advisory Agreement, the EverArc Founder Entity elected to receive approximately 77.7% of the 2022 Fixed Amount in Ordinary Shares (1,831,653 Ordinary Shares) and approximately 22.3% of the 2022 Fixed Amount in cash ($4.7 million). On February 15, 2023, the Company issued 1,831,653 Ordinary Shares and paid $4.7 million in cash in satisfaction of the 2022 Fixed Amount.
As of June 30, 2023, the Company calculated the fair value of the Fixed Annual Advisory Amounts using the period end volume weighted average closing share price of Ordinary Shares for ten consecutive trading days of $5.89 and used a Monte Carlo simulation model to calculate the fair value of the Variable Annual Advisory Amount. These approaches resulted in fair values of $103.5 million for the Variable Annual Advisory Amount and $69.4 million for the Fixed Annual Advisory Amount, of which 50% may be paid in cash and recorded as a liability and the remaining 50% would be settled in Ordinary Shares. While the entire instrument is subject to the fair value calculation described above, the amount classified and recorded as equity remains consistent while the amount classified and recorded as a liability is updated each period.
For the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, the Company recognized a reduction in share-based compensation expense related to a decrease in fair value for liability-classified Advisory Amounts of $60.0 million and $84.3 million, respectively, primarily due to the decrease in stock price.
The Company leases real property from the sellers of First Response Fire Rescue, LLC, River City Fabrication, LLC, and H&S Transport, LLC (collectively, “Ironman”). Shannon Horn, who serves as our Business Director, North America Retardant and Services, was one of the sellers of Ironman. The Company paid $0.1 million, $0.1 million, $0.2 million and $0.2 million to lease real property from Ironman during the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
