2.1
Demand Registration.


 


2.1.1
Request for Registration. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.1.4 and Section 2.4 hereof, at any time
and from time to time on or after the date the Company consummates the Business Combination, the Holders of at least a majority in interest
of the then-outstanding number of Registrable Securities (the “Demanding Holders”) may make a written demand
for Registration of all or part of their Registrable Securities, which written demand shall describe the amount and type of securities
to be included in such Registration and the intended method(s) of distribution thereof (such written demand a “Demand Registration”).
The Company shall, within five (5) days of the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration, notify, in writing, all other Holders
of Registrable Securities of such demand, and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion
of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration (each such Holder that includes all
or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration, a “Requesting Holder”) shall
so notify the Company, in writing, within three (3) business days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. Upon
receipt by the Company of any such written notification from a Requesting Holder(s) to the Company, such Requesting Holder(s) shall be
entitled to have their Registrable Securities included in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration and the Company shall effect,
as soon thereafter as practicable, but not more than forty-five (45) days immediately after the Company’s receipt of the Demand
Registration, the Registration of all Registrable Securities requested by the Demanding Holders and Requesting Holders pursuant to such
Demand Registration. Under no circumstances shall the Company be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of three (3) Registrations
pursuant to a Demand Registration under this subsection 2.1.1 with respect to any or all Registrable Securities; provided,
however, that a Registration shall not be counted for such purposes unless a Form S-1 or any similar long-form registration statement
that may be available at such time (“Form S-1”) has become effective and all of the Registrable Securities requested
by the Requesting Holders to be registered on behalf of the Requesting Holders in such Form S-1 Registration have been sold, in accordance
with Section 3.1 of this Agreement; provided, further, that an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall not count as a Demand
Registration.


 


2.1.2 Effective
Registration. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2.1.1 above or any other part of this Agreement, a
Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration shall not count as a Registration unless and until (i) the Registration Statement
filed with the Commission with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration has been declared effective by the
Commission and (ii) the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, further,
that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, an offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration
pursuant to a Demand Registration is subsequently interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission, federal or
state court or any other governmental agency the Registration Statement with respect to such Registration shall be deemed not to
have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated and
(ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Demand Registration thereafter affirmatively elect to continue
with such Registration and accordingly notify the Company in writing, but in no event later than five (5) days, of such election; provided, further,
that the Company shall not be obligated or required to file another Registration Statement until the Registration Statement that has
been previously filed with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration becomes effective or is subsequently
terminated.


 






    6


     

    

 


2.1.3
Underwritten Offering. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.1.4 and Section 2.4 hereof, if a majority-in-interest
of the Demanding Holders so advise the Company as part of their Demand Registration that the offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant
to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering, then the right of such Demanding Holder or Requesting Holder
(if any) to include its Registrable Securities in such Registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such
Underwritten Offering and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering to the extent provided
herein. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection
2.1.3 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriters selected for such Underwritten Offering by
the majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating the Demand Registration.


 


2.1.4
Reduction of Underwritten Offering. If the managing Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration,
in good faith, advise the Company, the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number
of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other
Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell and the Common Stock, if any, as to which a Registration has
been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other stockholders who desire to sell,
exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering without adversely
affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum
dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then
the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering, as follows: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holders and
the Requesting Holders (if any) (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder and Requesting
Holder (if any) has requested be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the
Demanding Holders and Requesting Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Registration (such proportion is referred to
herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (ii) second, to
the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Common Stock or other equity
securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iii) third, to
the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Common Stock or other
equity securities of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register in a Registration pursuant to separate written
contractual arrangements with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.


 


2.1.5 Demand
Registration Withdrawal. A majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating a Demand Registration or a
majority-in-interest of the Requesting Holders (if any), pursuant to a Registration under subsection 2.1.1 shall have the
right to withdraw from a Registration pursuant to such Demand Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification
to the Company and the Underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Registration prior to the effectiveness of the
Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to the Registration of their Registrable Securities pursuant to such
Demand Registration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the
Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration prior to its withdrawal under
this subsection 2.1.5.


 






    7


     

    

 


2.2
Piggyback Registration.


 


2.2.1
Piggyback Rights. If, at any time on or after the date the Company consummates a Business Combination, the Company proposes
to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations
exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into equity securities, for its own account or for the account of stockholders of the
Company (or by the Company and by the stockholders of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof),
other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange
offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing stockholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible
into equity securities of the Company or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed
filing to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than seven (7) days before the anticipated
filing date of such Registration Statement, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering,
the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing Underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to
all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders
may request in writing within three (3) days after receipt of such written notice (such Registration a “Piggyback Registration”).
The Company shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and shall use its best
efforts to cause the managing Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders
pursuant to this subsection 2.2.1 to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities
of the Company included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance
with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an
Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.2.1 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriters
selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Company. The notice periods set forth in this subsection 2.2.1 shall not apply to
an Underwritten Shelf Takedown conducted in accordance with subsection 2.3.3.


 


2.2.2 Reduction of
Piggyback Registration. If the managing Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration that is to be a Piggyback Registration
(other than Underwritten Shelf Takedown), in good faith, advise the Company and the Holders of Registrable Securities participating
in the Piggyback Registration in writing that the dollar amount or number of the shares of Common Stock that the Company desires to
sell, taken together with (i) the Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration has been demanded pursuant to separate written
contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, (ii) the Registrable
Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant Section 2.2 hereof, and (iii) the Common Stock, if any, as to
which Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders
of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:


 


(a) If the Registration is undertaken for the Company’s account, the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first,
the Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of
Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable
Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1, Pro Rata,
which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has
not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant
to written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum
Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses
(A), (B) and (C), the Common Stock or other equity securities for the account of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated
to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the
Maximum Number of Securities;




 






    8


     

    

 


(b) If the Registration
is pursuant to a request by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then the Company shall include in
any such Registration (A) first, the Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting persons or entities, other
than the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the
extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of
Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1, Pro Rata, which can be
sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been
reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which
can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities
has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the Common Stock or other equity securities for the account of

persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.


 


2.2.3 Piggyback
Registration Withdrawal. Any Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for
any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to
withdraw from such Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with
respect to such Piggyback Registration. The Company (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for
withdrawal by persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the
Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred
in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this subsection 2.2.3.


 


2.2.4
Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2
hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.1 hereof.


 


2.3
Shelf Registrations.


 


2.3.1
The Holders of Registrable Securities may at any time, and from time to time, request in writing that the Company, pursuant to
Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), register the resale of any or all
of their Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or similar short form registration statement that may be available at such time (“Form
S-3”), or if the Company is ineligible to use Form S-3, on Form S-1; a registration statement filed pursuant to this subsection
2.3.1 (a “Shelf”) shall provide for the resale of the Registrable Securities included therein pursuant to
any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder. Within three (3) days of the Company’s
receipt of a written request from a Holder or Holders of Registrable Securities for a Registration on a Shelf, the Company shall promptly
give written notice of the proposed Registration to all other Holders of Registrable Securities, and each Holder of Registrable Securities
who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration shall so notify the
Company, in writing, within three (3) days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. As soon as practicable thereafter,
but not more than ten (10) days after the Company’s initial receipt of such written request for a Registration on a Shelf, the Company
shall register all or such portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities as are specified in such written request, together with
all or such portion of Registrable Securities of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in the written notification
given by such Holder or Holders; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such Registration
pursuant to this subsection 2.3.1 if the Holders of Registrable Securities, together with the Holders of any other equity securities
of the Company entitled to inclusion in such Registration, propose to sell the Registrable Securities and such other equity securities
(if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $10,000,000. The Company shall maintain each Shelf in accordance with the terms
hereof, and shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary
to keep such Shelf continuously effective, available for use and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time
as there are no longer any Registrable Securities included on such Shelf. In the event the Company files a Shelf on Form S-1, the Company
shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form S-1 to a Form S-3 as soon as practicable after the Company is eligible
to use Form S-3.


 


2.3.2 If any Shelf ceases
to be effective under the Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities included thereon are still
outstanding, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable cause such Shelf
to again become effective under the Securities Act (including obtaining the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the
effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable amend
such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or
file an additional registration statement (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration”) registering the resale of
all Registrable Securities including on such Shelf, and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and
requested by, any Holder. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
(i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration to become effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable
after the filing thereof and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration continuously effective, available for use and in
compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities included
thereon. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form.
Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on another appropriate form. In the event that any Holder holds Registrable
Securities that are not registered for resale on a delayed or continuous basis, the Company, upon request of a Holder shall promptly
use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the resale of such Registrable Securities to be covered by either, at the
Company’s option, a Shelf (including by means of a post-effective amendment) or a Subsequent Shelf Registration and cause the
same to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing and such Shelf or Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be subject
to the terms hereof; provided, however, the Company shall only be required to cause such Registrable Securities to be
so covered once annually after inquiry of the Holders.

2.3.3
At any time and from time to time after a Shelf has been declared effective by the Commission, the Sponsor may request to sell
all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering that is registered pursuant to the Shelf (each, an “Underwritten
Shelf Takedown”); provided, that the Company shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if
such offering shall include securities with a total offering price (including piggyback securities and before deduction of underwriting
discounts) reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $10,000,000. All requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by
giving written notice to the Company at least 48 hours prior to the public announcement of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, which shall
specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the expected price
range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. The Company shall include in any Underwritten
Shelf Takedown the securities requested to be included by any holder (each a “Takedown Requesting Holder”) at
least 24 hours prior to the public announcement of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to written contractual piggyback registration
rights of such holder (including to those set forth herein). The Sponsor shall have the right to select the underwriter(s) for such offering
(which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks), subject to the Company’s prior approval which
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to this subsection
2.3.3 shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.1 hereof.


 


2.3.4 If the managing
Underwriters in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good faith, advises the Company, the Sponsor and the Takedown Requesting Holders
(if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Sponsor and the Takedown Requesting Holders
(if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell,
exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, as follows: (i) first,
the Registrable Securities of the Sponsor that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (ii) second, to the
extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Common Stock or other equity
securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iii) third,
to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Common Stock
or other equity securities of the Takedown Requesting Holders, if any, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of
Securities, determined Pro Rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Takedown Requesting Holder has so
requested to be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown.


 


2.3.5
The Sponsor shall have the right to withdraw from an Underwritten Shelf Takedown for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification
to the Company and the Underwriters (if any) of its intention to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown prior to the public announcement
of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for
the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with an Underwritten Shelf Takedown prior to a withdrawal under this subsection 2.3.5.


 


2.4
Restrictions on Registration Rights. If (A) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s
good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of,
a Company initiated Registration; provided, that the Company has delivered written notice to the Holders prior to receipt of a
Demand Registration pursuant to subsection 2.1.1 and it continues to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable efforts to
cause the applicable Registration Statement to become effective; (B) the Holders have requested an Underwritten Registration and the Company
and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite the offer; or (C) in the good faith judgment
of the Board such Registration would be seriously detrimental to the Company and the Board concludes as a result that it is essential
to defer the filing of such Registration Statement at such time, then in each case the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate
signed by the Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be seriously detrimental to the Company
for such Registration Statement to be filed in the near future and that it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such Registration
Statement. In such event, the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than thirty (30) days; provided,
however, that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than once in any 12-month period. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, no Registration shall be effected or permitted and no Registration Statement shall
become effective, with respect to any Registrable Securities held by any Holder, until after the expiration of the Founder Shares Lock-Up
Period or the Private Placement Lock-Up Period, as the case may be.

the Registration of Registrable Securities, the Company shall use its best efforts to effect such Registration to permit the sale of
such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended plan of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall, as
expeditiously as possible:


 


3.1.1
prepare and file with the Commission as soon as practicable a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities
and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective until all Registrable
Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold;


 


3.1.2
prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements
to the Prospectus, as may be requested by the Holders or any Underwriters of Registrable Securities or as may be required by the rules,
regulations or instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations
thereunder to keep the Registration Statement effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold
in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus;


 


3.1.3
prior to filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to the Underwriters,

exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each
preliminary Prospectus), and such other documents as the Underwriters and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration

3.1.4
prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities
covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States
as the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may
request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered
with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and
do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such
Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however,
that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required
to qualify or take any action to which it would be subject to general service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it
is not then otherwise so subject;


 


3.1.5
cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar securities
issued by the Company are then listed;


 


3.1.6

3.1.7
 advise each seller of such Registrable Securities, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the
issuance of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening
of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain
its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued;


 


3.1.8
at least five (5) days prior to the filing of any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to such Registration
Statement or Prospectus (other than by way of a document incorporated by reference) furnish a copy thereof to each seller of such Registrable
Securities or its counsel;


 


3.1.9
notify the Holders at any time when a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as then in
effect, includes a Misstatement, and then to correct such Misstatement as set forth in Section 3.4 hereof;


 


3.1.10
permit a representative of the Holders, the Underwriters, if any, and any attorney or accountant retained by such Holders or Underwriters
to participate, at each such person’s own expense, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, and cause the Company’s
officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative, Underwriters, attorney or
accountant in connection with the Registration; provided, however, that such representatives or Underwriters enter into
a confidentiality agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, prior to the release or disclosure of any such
information;


 


3.1.11
obtain a “cold comfort” letter from the Company’s independent registered public accountants in the event of an
Underwritten Registration, in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “cold comfort” letters
as the managing Underwriters may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating Holders;


 


3.1.12
on the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, obtain an opinion, dated such date,
of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the Holders, the placement agent or sales agent,
if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which such opinion is
being given as the Holders, placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriters may reasonably request and as are customarily included in such
opinions and negative assurance letters, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the participating Holders;


 


3.1.13
in the event of any Underwritten Offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and

3.1.14  make
available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least twelve
(12) months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the
Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any
successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission);


 






    12


     

    

 


3.1.15
if the Registration involves the Registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $50,000,000, use
its reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Company to participate in customary “road show” presentations
that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriters in any Underwritten Offering; and


 


3.1.16
otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders,
in connection with such Registration.


 


3.2
Registration Expenses. The Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by the Company. It is acknowledged
by the Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’
commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration
Expenses,” all reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holders.


 


3.3
Requirements for Participation in Underwritten Offerings. No person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity
securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to sell such person’s
securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and (ii) completes and executes all customary
questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably
required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.


 


3.4
Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or
Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has
received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants
to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the time of such notice), or until it is advised in writing
by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration
Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion
in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for reasons beyond the Company’s control,
the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend
use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time, but in no event more than thirty (30) days in any 12-month period,
determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under the preceding
sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating
to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities. The Company shall immediately notify the Holders
of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this Section 3.4.


 


3.5
 Reporting Obligations. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall
be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable
grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete copies of all such filings. The Company further covenants that it shall
take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell
shares of the Common Stock held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided
by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission, to the extent that such
rule or such successor rule is available to the Company), including providing any legal opinions. Upon the request of any Holder, the
Company shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

IV 

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION


 


4.1
Indemnification.


 


4.1.1
The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors
and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
expenses (including attorneys’ fees) caused by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration
Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of
a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are
caused by or contained in any information furnished in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall
indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities
Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.


 


4.1.2 In connection with
any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in
writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration
Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and
each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and
expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact
contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any
omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to
the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such
Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and
several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in
proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such
Registration Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each
person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing
with respect to indemnification of the Company.


 


4.1.3
Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with
respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to
indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified
party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such
claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party.
If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party
without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not
to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified
by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest
may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall,
without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled
in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement)
or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party
of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.


 


4.1.4
The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made
by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the
transfer of securities. The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions
as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Holder’s
indemnification is unavailable for any reason.


 






    14


     

    

 


4.1.5 If the
indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless
an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying
party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a
result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault
of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of
the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in
question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material
fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying
party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such action; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this subsection 4.1.5 shall be limited
to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable
by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations
set forth in subsection 4.1.1, subsection 4.1.2 and subsection 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or
expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or
by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection
4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be
entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation.


 


Article
V 

STOCKHOLDER RIGHTS


 


5.1
Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at any time and from time to time on or after the date that the Company
consummates a Business Combination and for so long as the Sponsor holds any Registrable Securities:


 


5.1.1
The Sponsor shall have the right, but not the obligation, to designate three individuals to be appointed or nominated, as the case
may be, for election to the Board (including any successor, each, a “Nominee”) by giving written notice to the
Company on or before the time such information is reasonably requested by the Board or the Nominating Committee of the Board, as applicable,
for inclusion in a proxy statement for a meeting of stockholders provided to the Sponsor.


 


5.1.2
The Company will, as promptly as practicable, use its best efforts to take all necessary and desirable actions (including, without
limitation, calling special meetings of the Board and the stockholders and recommending, supporting and soliciting proxies) so that there
are three Sponsor Directors serving on the Board at all times.


 


5.1.3
The Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, use its best efforts to take all actions necessary to ensure
that: (i) each Nominee is included in the Board’s slate of nominees to the stockholders of the Company for each election of Directors;
and (ii) each Nominee is included in the proxy statement prepared by management of the Company in connection with soliciting proxies for
every meeting of the stockholders of the Company called with respect to the election of members of the Board, and at every adjournment
or postponement thereof, and on every action or approval by written consent of the stockholders of the Company or the Board with respect
to the election of members of the Board.


 


5.1.4
If a vacancy occurs because of the death, disability, disqualification, resignation, or removal of a Sponsor Director or for any
other reason, the Sponsor shall be entitled to designate such person’s successor, and the Company will, as promptly as practicable
following such designation, use its best efforts to take all necessary and desirable actions, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
within its control such that such vacancy shall be filled with such successor Nominee.


 




    15


     

    

 


5.1.5
 If a Nominee is not elected because of such Nominee’s death, disability, disqualification, withdrawal as a nominee or for
any other reason, the Sponsor shall be entitled to designate promptly another Nominee and the Company will take all necessary and desirable
actions within its control such that the director position for which such Nominee was nominated shall not be filled pending such designation
or the size of the Board shall be increased by one and such vacancy shall be filled with such successor Nominee as promptly as practicable
following such designation.


 


5.1.6
As promptly as reasonably practicable following the request of any Sponsor Director, the Company shall enter into an indemnification
agreement with such Sponsor Director, in the form entered into with the other members of the Board. The Company shall pay the reasonable,
documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Sponsor Director in connection with his or her services provided to or on behalf of
the Company, including attending meetings or events attended explicitly on behalf of the Company at the Company’s request.


 


5.1.7
The Company shall (i) purchase directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in an amount determined by the Board to
be reasonable and customary and (ii) for so long as a Sponsor Director serves as a Director of the Company, maintain such coverage with
respect to such Sponsor Director; provided, that upon removal or resignation of such Sponsor Director for any reason, the Company
shall take all actions reasonably necessary to extend such directors’ and officers’ liability insurance coverage for a period
of not less than six (6) years from any such event in respect of any act or omission occurring at or prior to such event.


 


5.1.8
For so long as a Sponsor Director serves as a Director of the Company, the Company shall not amend, alter or repeal any right to
indemnification or exculpation covering or benefiting any Director nominated pursuant to this Agreement as and to the extent consistent
with applicable law, whether such right is contained in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or amended
and restated bylaws, each as amended, or another document (except to the extent such amendment or alteration permits the Company to provide
broader indemnification or exculpation rights on a retroactive basis than permitted prior thereto).


 


5.1.9
Each Nominee may, but does not need to qualify as “independent” pursuant to listing standards of the New York Stock
Exchange (or such other national securities exchange upon which the Company’s securities are then listed).


 


5.1.10 Any Nominee will be
subject to the Company’s customary due diligence process, including its review of a completed questionnaire and a background
check. Based on the foregoing, the Company may object to any Nominee provided (a) it does so in good faith, and (b) such objection
is based upon any of the following: (i) such Nominee was convicted in a criminal proceeding or is a named subject of a pending
criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses), (ii) such Nominee was the subject of any order,
judgment, or decree not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or
temporarily enjoining such proposed director from, or otherwise limiting, the following activities: (A) engaging in any type of
business practice, or (B) engaging in any activity in connection with the purchase or sale of any security or in connection with any
violation of federal or state securities laws, (iii) such Nominee was the subject of any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently
reversed, suspended or vacated, of any federal or state authority barring, suspending or otherwise limiting for more than 60 days
the right of such person to engage in any activity described in clause (ii)(B), or to be associated with persons engaged in such
activity, (iv) such proposed director was found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commission to have
violated any federal or state securities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commission has not been
subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, or (v) such proposed director was the subject of, or a party to any federal or state
judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to a
violation of any federal or state securities laws or regulations. In the event the Board reasonably finds the Nominee to be
unsuitable based upon one or more of the foregoing clauses (i) through (v) and reasonably objects to the identified director,
Sponsor shall be entitled to propose a different nominee to the Board within 30 calendar days of the Company’s notice to
Sponsor of its objection to the Nominee and such replacement Nominee shall be subject to the review process outlined above.


 


5.1.11
The Company shall take all necessary action to cause a Nominee chosen by the Sponsor, at the request of such Nominee to be elected
to the board of directors (or similar governing body) of each material operating subsidiary of the Company. The Nominee, as applicable,
shall have the right to attend (in person or remotely) any meetings of the board of directors (or similar governing body or committee
thereof) of each subsidiary of the Company.

6.7 WAIVER OF TRIAL
BY JURY. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, COUNTERCLAIM
OR OTHER PROCEEDING (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE
TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, OR THE ACTIONS OF THE SPONSOR IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT
HEREOF.


 


6.8
Amendments and Modifications. Upon the written consent of the Company and the Holders of at least a majority in interest
of the Registrable Securities at the time in question, compliance with any of the provisions, covenants and conditions set forth in this
Agreement may be waived, or any of such provisions, covenants or conditions may be amended or modified; provided, however,
that notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment hereto or waiver hereof that adversely affects one Holder, solely in its capacity as
a holder of the shares of capital stock of the Company, in a manner that is materially different from the other Holders (in such capacity)
shall require the consent of the Holder so affected. No course of dealing between any Holder or the Company and any other party hereto
or any failure or delay on the part of a Holder or the Company in exercising any rights or remedies under this Agreement shall operate
as a waiver of any rights or remedies of any Holder or the Company. No single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies under this
Agreement by a party shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights or remedies hereunder or thereunder by such
party.


 


6.9
Titles and Headings. Titles and headings of sections of this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not affect the
construction of any provision of this Agreement.


 


6.10
Waivers and Extensions. Any party to this Agreement may waive any right, breach or default which such party has the right
to waive, provided that such waiver will not be effective against the waiving party unless it is in writing, is signed by such party,
and specifically refers to this Agreement. Waivers may be made in advance or after the right waived has arisen or the breach or default
waived has occurred. Any waiver may be conditional. No waiver of any breach of any agreement or provision herein contained shall be deemed
a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach thereof nor of any other agreement or provision herein contained. No waiver or extension
of time for performance of any obligations or acts shall be deemed a waiver or extension of the time for performance of any other obligations
or acts.


 


6.11
Remedies Cumulative. In the event that the Company fails to observe or perform any covenant or agreement to be observed
or performed under this Agreement, the Holders may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by suit in equity or action at law, whether
for specific performance of any term contained in this Agreement or for an injunction against the breach of any such term or in aid of
the exercise of any power granted in this Agreement or to enforce any other legal or equitable right, or to take any one or more of such
actions, without being required to post a bond. None of the rights, powers or remedies conferred under this Agreement shall be mutually
exclusive, and each such right, power or remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right, power or remedy, whether conferred
by this Agreement or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise.


 


6.12    Other
Registration Rights. The Company represents and warrants that no person, other than a Holder of Registrable Securities, has any
right to require the Company to register any securities of the Company for sale or to include such securities of the Company in any
Registration filed by the Company for the sale of securities for its own account or for the account of any other person. Further,
the Company represents and warrants that this Agreement supersedes any other registration rights agreement or agreement with similar
terms and conditions and in the event of a conflict between any such agreement or agreements and this Agreement, the terms of this
Agreement shall prevail.


 


6.13
Term. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (i) the tenth anniversary of the date of this Agreement and (ii)
the date as of which no Registrable Securities remain outstanding. The provisions of Section 3.5 and Article IV shall survive
any termination.
