Our directors are divided into three classes with each class consisting of an equal number of directors, or as nearly equal as possible. Each director generally serves for a term ending on the date of the third annual meeting following the annual meeting at which such director was elected. A classified board of directors promotes continuity and stability of management, but makes it more difficult for the stockholders to change a majority of the directors because it generally takes at least two annual elections of directors for this to occur. We believe that classification of the board of directors will help to assure the continuity and stability of its business strategies and policies as determined by its board of directors.</font></div><div style="text-indent:36pt"><font><br></font></div><div style="text-indent:36pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">We are party to a Stockholders&#8217; Agreement with our stockholders that will remain in effect following the merger.

There is no cumulative voting in the election of our directors. Cumulative voting means that holders of stock of a corporation are entitled, in the election of directors, to cast a number of votes equal to the number of shares that they own multiplied by the number of directors to be elected. Because a stockholder entitled to cumulative voting may cast all of his, her or its votes for one nominee or disperse his, her or its votes among nominees as the stockholder chooses, cumulative voting is generally considered to increase the ability of minority stockholders to elect nominees to a corporation&#8217;s board of directors.</font></div><div style="text-indent:36pt"><font><br></font></div><div style="text-indent:36pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:100%">Authorized and Unissued Shares</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">.

These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions, and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved shares of common stock and preferred stock may enable the board of directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current management, which could render more difficult or discourage any attempt to obtain control of the company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise, and thereby protect the continuity of the company&#8217;s management.</font></div><div style="text-indent:36pt"><font><br></font></div><div style="text-indent:36pt"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;font-weight:700;line-height:100%">Business Combinations under Delaware Law</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:10pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">.

As of December 20, 2021, we had 18,321,659 shares of common stock outstanding and had reserved for issuance 1,412,900 shares of common stock underlying stock options that are or may become exercisable. In addition, as of December 20, 2021, we had the ability to issue 2,612,689 shares of common stock pursuant to stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other equity awards that may be granted in the future under our existing equity compensation plans.
As of December 20, 2021, we had no shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding.
The authorized but unissued shares of our common stock and preferred stock are available for general purposes, including, but not limited to, the possible issuance as stock dividends, use in connection with mergers or acquisitions, cash dividend reinvestments, stock purchase plans, public or private offerings, or FirstSun's equity compensation plans. Except as may be required to approve a merger or other transaction in which additional authorized shares of common stock would be issued, no stockholder approval will be required for the issuance of those shares.
Common Stock
General
Each share of common stock has the same relative rights as, and is identical in all respects to, each other share of common stock. All outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and nonassessable.
Voting Rights
In general, each outstanding share of our common stock entitles the holder to vote for the election of directors and on all other matters requiring stockholder action, and each share is entitled to one vote. The holders of our common stock possess exclusive voting power, except as otherwise provided by law or by a certificate of amendment establishing any series of our preferred stock.
There is no cumulative voting in the election of directors. Assuming a quorum is present, our directors, which are designated for nomination in accordance with the Stockholders' Agreement, are elected by holders of our common stock by a plurality vote.  For a description of the board designation rights of certain FirstSun stockholders under the Stockholders' Agreement, see "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions of FirstSun" beginning on page 180 of the
Prospectus
. In addition, in connection with the merger, JLL/FCH Holdings I, LLC ("JLL"), the largest shareholder of Pioneer, will be added as a party to the Stockholders' Agreement via the Amendment and will also have a board designation right as described under "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions of FirstSun" beginning on page 180 of the
Prospectus
.
All other questions brought before a meeting of stockholders at which a quorum is present are decided by a majority of all the votes cast at the meeting, whether cast in person or by proxy, unless the matter requires a greater number of affirmative votes under the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation or the Stockholders' Agreement. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws contain certain provisions that may limit stockholders' ability to effect a change in control as described under the section below entitled "Anti-Takeover Provisions of Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws and Provisions of Delaware Law."
2
Dividend, Liquidation and Other Rights
Subject to all rights of holders of any other class or series of stock, holders of common stock are entitled to receive dividends if and when our board of directors declares dividends out of funds legally available therefor. Dividends may only be declared by the board of directors, and the board's ability to declare dividends is subject to limitations under applicable law and regulation. If we issue preferred stock, the holders of such preferred stock may have a priority over the holders of common stock with respect to dividends.
If we voluntarily or involuntarily liquidate, dissolve or wind up, holders of our common stock are entitled to share equally and ratably in our assets legally available for distribution after payment of, or adequate provision for, all of our debts and liabilities. These rights are subject to the preferential liquidation rights of any series of preferred stock that may then be outstanding.
Holders of our common stock have no preference, conversion, exchange, sinking fund or redemption rights and, except with respect to certain stockholders as set forth in the Stockholders' Agreement, have no preemptive rights to purchase or subscribe for any of our securities. For a description of the preemptive rights available to certain stockholders of FirstSun under the Stockholders' Agreement, see "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions of FirstSun—Stockholders' Agreement—Share Transfer Provisions—Preemptive Rights" on page 183 of the
Prospectus
.
Preferred Stock
Our certificate of incorporation provides that the FirstSun board of directors may issue, without stockholder approval, preferred stock in one or more series, and, with respect to each such series, fix the number of shares constituting the series and the designation of the series, the voting rights (if any) of the shares of the series, and the powers, preferences and relative, participation, optional and other rights, if any, and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions, of the shares of such series.
The description of the shares of each series of preferred stock, including the powers, preferences and relative participation, optional and other rights, if any, and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions, of the shares of such series will be set forth in resolutions adopted by the FirstSun board of directors and in an amendment to our certificate of incorporation filed as required by the DGCL. Accordingly, the FirstSun board of directors, without stockholder approval, may authorize the issuance of one or more series of preferred stock with voting and conversion rights which could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of FirstSun common stock and, under certain circumstances, discourage an attempt by others to gain control of FirstSun.
The creation and issuance of any series of preferred stock, and the relative rights, designations and preferences of such series, if and when established, will depend on, among other things, FirstSun's future capital needs, then existing market conditions and other factors that, in the judgment of the FirstSun board of directors, might warrant the issuance of preferred stock.
Quorum of the Board and Manner of Acting
Under our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, a majority of the entire board of directors constitutes a quorum at any meeting. Unless otherwise required by law, our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and the Stockholders' Agreement, and as described in more detail below, the act of a majority of the board of directors at which a quorum is present constitutes the act of the board.

Amending FirstSun's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws
Certificate of Incorporation
Any provision of our certificate of incorporation may be amended, altered, changed or repealed in accordance with the DGCL; provided that holders of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote must approve changes to the provisions in our certificate of incorporation regarding the board of directors, limitation of liability and indemnification of officers and directors, corporate opportunities, amendment of the certificate of incorporation and amendment of the bylaws.
Bylaws
The bylaws may be amended or repealed by our board of directors or the stockholders in accordance with the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation and the Stockholders' Agreement, as amended; provided, that, (a) any amendments to the provisions related to the classification of the board, director elections, board quorum and manner of acting or the majority board approval requirements require consent of FirstSun and stockholders holding at least two-thirds of our common stock then outstanding, and (b) any amendment to the provision related to the supermajority board approval requirements for certain matters require consent of FirstSun and stockholders holding at least 80% of our common stock then outstanding. Under our certificate of incorporation, the stockholders can amend or repeal the bylaws by the holders of 66 2/3% of the outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote, unless a higher approval percentage is required in the bylaws.

Anti-Takeover Provisions of FirstSun's Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, Stockholders' Agreement and Provisions of Delaware Law
Our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Stockholders' Agreement, in addition to the DGCL, contain certain provisions that might be deemed to have a potential "anti-takeover" effect. The following description of certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws, Stockholders' Agreement and the DGCL that may have anti-takeover effects is a summary only and is subject to, and is qualified by reference to, applicable provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Stockholders' Agreement, as well as applicable provisions of the DGCL.
Classification of the Board of Directors
. Our directors are divided into three classes with each class consisting of an equal number of directors, or as nearly equal as possible. Each director generally serves for a term ending on the date of the third annual meeting following the annual meeting at which such director was elected. A classified board of directors promotes continuity and stability of management, but makes it more difficult for the stockholders to change a majority of the directors because it generally takes at least two annual elections of directors for this to occur. We believe that classification of the board of directors will help to assure the continuity and stability of its business strategies and policies as determined by its board of directors.
We are party to a Stockholders' Agreement with our stockholders that will remain in effect following the merger. The Stockholders' Agreement also requires that our board of directors be classified and any amendment to this requirement requires, among other things, that each stockholder with a board designation right, as described below, consent to such amendment.
Composition of the Board of Directors
. Our certificate of incorporation provides that we must not have less than one nor more than 15 directors, with the exact number of directors to be determined from time to time solely by resolution adopted by the affirmative vote of the majority of the board of directors. Our board of directors is currently comprised of seven directors.
Under the Stockholders' Agreement, the size of our board of directors is currently set at eight members, and the stockholders with board designation rights, which we refer to as the "designating stockholders," have the exclusive right to designate nominees for election to all eight board seats. Currently, one designating stockholder has chosen not to nominate a director to its seat, and, therefore, there are currently only seven directors serving on the board with one vacant board seat.
In connection with the merger, the Stockholders' Agreement will be further amended by the Amendment to increase the size of our board of directors from eight to ten members. JLL, Pioneer's largest shareholder, will become a party to the Stockholders' Agreement and will have the right to designate one nominee, who will be a Class II director, to our board of directors. FirstSun and Pioneer will also mutually agree to designate one nominee who currently serves on the Pioneer board of directors to our board of directors, who will be a Class I director.
Following the merger, only one of ten possible board nominees will be available for nomination by our board of directors. Nine of the ten possible board nominees will be nominated by specific stockholders.
For additional information on the designating stockholders see "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions of FirstSun—Stockholders' Agreement—Corporate Governance Provisions—Board Composition" beginning on page 181 of the
Prospectus
. Under the Stockholders' Agreement, the board nomination rights of SWBP, the Dana Hale Nelson Trusts, the Karen Hale Young Trusts, the John J. Hale Trust, the Max Alan Hale Trusts, and the Mollie Hale Carter Stockholder Group will terminate immediately prior to the completion of an underwritten public offering of our securities, other than under a Form S-4 or S-8 registration statement. Aquiline, Lightyear and JLL would retain their board nomination rights following an underwritten public offering, subject to selling their shares as described below, or upon final termination of the Stockholders' Agreement. See "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions of FirstSun—Stockholders' Agreement— Miscellaneous Stockholders' Agreement Provisions—Amendment; Termination" on page 184 of the
Prospectus
.
Removal of Directors
. Our certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that a director may only be removed with cause by the affirmative vote of holders of not less than a majority of the outstanding shares entitled to be cast in the election of directors. In addition, a director is required to resign at such time the designating stockholder that nominated such director for election loses its designation right under the Stockholders' Agreement.
Under the Stockholders' Agreement, if there is a vacancy on our board with respect to a board seat designated by a designating stockholder, the applicable designating stockholder will have the exclusive right to designate another individual to fill such vacancy.
6
Following the merger, following removal of any director, if the removed director was one of nine of the board nominees that was nominated by a specific stockholder, the applicable stockholder will have the right to designate the replacement director until the next applicable election of directors. See "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions of FirstSun—Stockholders' Agreement—Corporate Governance Provisions—Board Composition" beginning on page 181 of the
Prospectus
.
Ability to Call a Special Meeting
. Special meetings of our stockholders may be called only (a) by the chairman of the board of directors or the Chief Executive Officer; or (b) by the Secretary, following written demand to call a special meeting from a majority of the board of directors or from stockholders of record who own at least 30% of all of the outstanding shares of our common stock then entitled to vote on the matter or matters to be brought before the proposed special meeting.
Absence of Cumulative Voting
. There is no cumulative voting in the election of our directors. Cumulative voting means that holders of stock of a corporation are entitled, in the election of directors, to cast a number of votes equal to the number of shares that they own multiplied by the number of directors to be elected. Because a stockholder entitled to cumulative voting may cast all of his, her or its votes for one nominee or disperse his, her or its votes among nominees as the stockholder chooses, cumulative voting is generally considered to increase the ability of minority stockholders to elect nominees to a corporation's board of directors.
Authorized and Unissued Shares
. Upon the affirmative vote of at least a majority of the entire board of directors, the authorized but unissued shares of common stock and "blank check" preferred stock will be available for future issuance without stockholder approval. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions, and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved shares of common stock and preferred stock may enable the board of directors to issue shares to persons friendly to current management, which could render more difficult or discourage any attempt to obtain control of the company by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise, and thereby protect the continuity of the company's management.
Business Combinations under Delaware Law
.  We have not opted out of Section 203 of the DGCL in our certificate of incorporation. Under Section 203 of the DGCL, subject to exceptions, we are prohibited from engaging in any business combination with any interested stockholder for a period of three years following the time that the stockholder became an interested stockholder. For this purpose, subject to certain exceptions, an "interested stockholder" generally includes holders of 15% or more of our outstanding stock. The provisions of Section 203 may encourage companies interested in acquiring FirstSun to negotiate in advance with its board of directors. These provisions may make it more difficult to accomplish transactions which stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests.
Effect of Anti-Takeover Provisions
The foregoing provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws, Stockholders' Agreement and Delaware law could have the effect of discouraging an acquisition of FirstSun or stock purchases in furtherance of an acquisition, and could accordingly, under certain circumstances, discourage transactions that might otherwise have a favorable effect on the price of FirstSun common stock. In addition, such provisions may make FirstSun less attractive to a potential acquirer and/or might result in stockholders receiving a lesser amount of consideration for their shares of common stock than otherwise could have been available.
Our board of directors believes that the provisions described above are prudent and will reduce our vulnerability to takeover attempts and certain other transactions that are not negotiated with and approved by our board of directors. Our board of directors believes that these provisions are in its best interests and the best interests of our stockholders. In the board of directors' judgment, the board of directors is in the best position to determine our true value and to negotiate more effectively for what may be in the best interests of our stockholders. Accordingly, the board of directors believes that it is in our best interests and in the best interests of our stockholders to encourage potential acquirers to negotiate directly with the board of directors and that these provisions will encourage such negotiations and discourage hostile takeover attempts.
Despite the board of directors' belief as to the benefits of the foregoing provisions, these provisions also may have the effect of discouraging a future takeover attempt in which stockholders might receive a substantial premium for their shares over then current market prices and may tend to perpetuate existing management. As a result, stockholders who might desire to participate in such a transaction may not have an opportunity to do so. Our board of directors, however, believes that the potential benefits of these provisions outweigh their possible disadvantages.

Stockholders' Agreement
We are party to a Stockholders' Agreement with our stockholders that will remain in effect following the merger. Under the merger agreement, the Stockholders' Agreement will be amended, with such Amendment to become effective upon the merger, to among other things, increase the size of our board of directors from eight to ten members. In addition, JLL, Pioneer's largest shareholder, will become a party to the Stockholders' Agreement and will have the right to designate one board nominee, who will be a Class II director, to our board of directors. FirstSun and Pioneer will also mutually agree to designate one nominee who currently serves on the Pioneer board of directors to our board of directors, who will be a Class I director. Other than JLL, no other Pioneer shareholder will become a party to the Stockholders' Agreement as a result of the merger. For a description of the Stockholders' Agreement, as amended, see "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions of FirstSun—Stockholders' Agreement" beginning on page 180 of the
Prospectus
.
Registration Rights Agreement
We are party to a Registration Rights Agreement with our stockholders pursuant to which we are obligated to register the sale of shares of our common stock owned by the stockholders party to the agreement under certain circumstances. These rights include "demand" registration rights requiring FirstSun to register the sale of shares of a specific stockholder, and they may be exercised at any time, subject to the provisions of the Registration Rights Agreement, which agreement will remain in effect following the merger. Under the merger agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement will be amended, with such amendment to become effective as of the closing date of the merger, to among other things, add JLL, Pioneer's largest shareholder, as a "Significant Investor" to the agreement. Other than JLL, no other Pioneer shareholder will become a party to the Registration Rights Agreement as a result of the merger. For a description of the Registration Rights Agreement, see "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions of FirstSun—Registration Rights Agreement" beginning on page 184 of the
Prospectus
and for a description of the amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement in connection with the merger, see "The Merger—Governance of the Combined Company After the Merger—Amendments to Registration Rights Agreement" on page 84 of the
Prospectus

Item 5.     Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.
Not applicable.
Item 6.     Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation will not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (1) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) under Section 174 of the DGCL (regarding, among other things, the payment of unlawful dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions), or (4) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Our certificate of incorporation provides that the liability of a director to us or our stockholders' for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duties is eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
Section 145(a) of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify any director, officer, employee or agent, or former director, officer, employee or agent, who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation), by reason of such person's service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or such person's service, at the corporation's request, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding; provided that such director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation; and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, provided that such director or officer had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful.
Section 145(b) of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit; provided that such director or officer acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
8
corporation, except that no indemnification may be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such director or officer shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such director or officer is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses that the court shall deem proper. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, we are not required to indemnify any such person in connection with a proceeding initiated by such person if such proceeding was not authorized in advance by our board of directors.
In addition, our certificate of incorporation provides that we must indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. The right of indemnification granted by our certificate of incorporation also includes the right to be paid by FirstSun the expenses incurred in connection with any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL. We may also carry directors' and officers' insurance providing indemnification for our directors and officers for some liabilities. We believe that these indemnification provisions and the directors' and officers' insurance are useful to attract and retain qualified directors and executive officers.
Item 7.    Exemption from Registration Claimed.
Not applicable.
Item 8.    Exhibits.
The list of exhibits is set forth under "Exhibit Index" at the end of this Registration Statement and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 9.    Undertakings.
1.     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(a)   To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i)    To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii)   To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement;
(iii)  To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;
provided, however
, that paragraphs (1)(a)(i) and (1)(a)(ii) do not apply if the Registration Statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.
(b)     That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c)      To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
9
2.     The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
3.     Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
