Exhibit 10.2

 

Andina Acquisition Corp. II

250 West 57th St

Suite 2223

New York, NY 10107

 

Gentlemen:

 

Andina Acquisition Corp. II (“Corporation”), a blank check company formed for
the purpose of acquiring one or more businesses or entities (a “Business
Combination”), intends to register its securities under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), in connection with its initial public
offering (“IPO”).

 

The undersigned hereby commits to purchase an aggregate of 45,000 units of the
Corporation (“Initial Units”), each Initial Unit consisting of one ordinary
share, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Corporation (“Ordinary Shares”), and
one right to receive one-seventh (1/7) of one Ordinary Share, at $10.00 per
Private Unit (as defined below), for an aggregate purchase price of $450,000
(the “Initial Purchase Price”). Additionally, if the underwriters in the IPO
exercise their over-allotment option in full or part, the undersigned further
commits to purchase up to an additional 1,733 Units (“Additional Units” and
together with the Initial Units, the “Private Units”) at $10.00 per Additional
Unit for an aggregate purchase price of up to $17,330 (the “Over-Allotment
Purchase Price” and together with the Initial Purchase Price, the “Purchase
Price”). At least twenty-four (24) hours prior to the effective date of the
Registration Statement, the undersigned will cause the Purchase Price to be
delivered to Graubard Miller (“GM”), counsel for the Corporation, by wire
transfer as set forth in the instructions attached as Exhibit A to hold in a
non-interest bearing account until the Corporation consummates the IPO and
over-allotment option, if any.

 

The consummation of the purchase and issuance of the Initial Units and
Additional Units (if any) shall occur simultaneously with the consummation of
the IPO and over-allotment option, respectively. Simultaneously with the
consummation of the IPO, GM shall (i) deposit the Initial Purchase Price,
without interest or deduction, into the trust fund (“Trust Fund”) established by
the Corporation for the benefit of the Corporation’s public stockholders as
described in the Corporation’s registration statement filed in connection with
the IPO (“Registration Statement”) and (ii) deliver all interest earned on the
Initial Purchase Price to the undersigned. Simultaneously with the consummation
of all or any part of the over-allotment option, GM shall deposit the pro-rata
portion of the Over-Allotment Purchase Price, based upon the amount of the
over-allotment option that has been exercised, without interest or deduction,
into the Trust Fund. Upon expiration of the over-allotment option, GM shall
return any unused portion of the Over-Allotment Purchase Price to the
undersigned. If the Corporation does not complete the IPO within six (6) months
from the date of this letter (subject to a six (6) month extension at the
Corporation’s option in its sole discretion), the Purchase Price (without
interest or deduction) will be returned to the undersigned.

 

   

 

 

Each of the Corporation and the undersigned acknowledges and agrees that GM is
serving hereunder solely as a convenience to the parties to facilitate the
purchase of the Private Units and GM’s sole obligation under this letter
agreement is to act with respect to holding and disbursing the Purchase Price
for the Private Units as described above. GM shall not be liable to the
Corporation or the undersigned or any other person or entity in respect of any
act or failure to act hereunder or otherwise in connection with performing its
services hereunder unless GM has acted in a manner constituting gross negligence
or willful misconduct. The Corporation shall indemnify GM against any claim made
against it (including reasonable attorney’s fees) by reason of it acting or
failing to act in connection with this letter agreement except as a result of
its gross negligence or willful misconduct. GM may rely and shall be protected
in acting or refraining from acting upon any written notice, instruction or
request furnished to it hereunder and believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or presented by the proper party or parties. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained herein, GM agrees that it does not have any
right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies of the Trust
Fund (“Claim”) and hereby waives any Claim it may have in the future as a result
of, or arising out of, any services provided to the Company and will not seek
recourse against the Trust Fund for any reason whatsoever.

 

The Private Units will be identical to the units to be sold by the Company in
the IPO. Additionally, the undersigned agrees:

 

·to vote the Ordinary Shares included in the Private Units in favor of any
proposed Business Combination;

 

·not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Company’s Amended and
Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association with respect to the Company’s
pre-Business Combination activities prior to the consummation of such a Business
Combination unless the Company offers dissenting holders the right to convert
their shares for a portion of the cash held in the Trust Fund;

 

·not to convert any Ordinary Shares included in the Private Units into the right
to receive cash from the Trust Fund in connection with a shareholder vote to
approve either a Business Combination or an amendment to the provisions of the
Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association relating
to shareholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity;

 

·that the Private Units and underlying securities will not be transferable until
after the consummation of a Business Combination except (i) to the undersigned’s
members upon its liquidation, (ii) to relatives and trusts for estate planning
purposes, (iii) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death,
(iv) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, (v) by certain pledges to
secure obligations incurred in connection with purchase of the Company’s
securities, (vi) by private sales made in connection with the consummation of a
Business Combination at prices no greater than the price at which the Private
Units were originally purchased or (vii) to the Company for cancellation in
connection with the consummation of a Business Combination, in each case (except
for clause vi) where the transferee agrees to the terms of the transfer
restrictions;

 

   

 

 

·the Private Units will be subject to customary registration rights, pursuant to
a Registration Rights Agreement on terms agreed upon by the Company and the
Underwriters to be filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement;

 

·the undersigned will not participate in any liquidation distribution with
respect to the Private Units (but will participate in liquidation distributions
with respect to any units or Common Stock purchased by the Undersigned in the
IPO or in the open market) if the Company fails to consummate a Business
Combination;

 

·the Private Units will include any additional terms or restrictions as is
customary in other similarly structured blank check company offerings or as may
be reasonably required by the underwriters in the IPO in order to consummate the
IPO, each of which will be set forth in the Registration Statement; and

 

·the Private Units (and the securities comprising the Private Units and issuable
thereunder) may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated, or
be the subject of any hedging, short sale, derivative, put or call transaction
that would result in the effective disposition of the securities by any person
for a period of 180 days immediately following the effective date of the
registration statement relating to the Company’s initial public offering, except
to any underwriter and selected dealer participating in the Company’s initial
public offering and their bona fide officers or partners and except as otherwise
provided in Rule 5110(g)(2) of the FINRA Conduct Rules.
