This PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) made as of June 28, 2020, by and between TravelCenters of America Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and The RMR Group LLC, a Maryland limited liability company (the “Purchaser”).
WHEREAS, the Company has filed a registration statement on Form S‑3 (File No. 333-223310) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), as amended by post-effective amendment no. 1 thereto (the “Amendment”), relating to the shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), to be sold in a proposed underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of Common Stock;
WHEREAS, the Purchaser desires to purchase in the Offering, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, up to that minimum number of shares of Common Stock required for the Purchaser to retain its pro rata ownership of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company immediately following the closing of the Offering (the “Initial Pro Rata Shares”), based upon the public offering price per share of Common Stock in the Offering and subject to the limitations described herein; and
WHEREAS, to the extent the underwriters of the Offering exercise their option to purchase additional shares of Common Stock in the Offering (the “Over-Allotment Exercise”), the Purchaser desires to purchase, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, up to that minimum number of additional shares of Common Stock required for the Purchaser to retain its pro rata ownership of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock of the Company immediately following the closing of the Over-Allotment Exercise (such shares, the “Over-Allotment Pro Rata Shares”, and together with the Initial Pro Rata Shares, the “Pro Rata Shares”), based upon the public offering price per share of Common Stock in the Offering and subject to the limitations described herein.
NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth, the parties hereto do hereby agree as follows:
