Binary configurations after the formation of the second BH. Each point corresponds to one of the 500 binaries randomly drawn from the blue points in Fig. E.1. Colours indicate the merger delay times of the post-collapse BBHs as a result of gravitational wave radiation. After this kick, there is a 30% chance that the BHs merge within the Hubble time.
