liability company (“Opco” and, together with the Company, the “SPAC Parties”) and

also referred to herein as the “Transfer Agent”).


 


WHEREAS, it is proposed that the Company enter
into that certain Private Placement Warrants Purchase Agreements with Rice Acquisition Sponsor II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(the “Sponsor”), pursuant to which the Sponsor will purchase an aggregate of 9,000,000 warrants of the Company

is exercised in full) , simultaneously with the closing of the Offering (and the closing of the Over-allotment Option, if applicable),
bearing the legend set forth in Exhibit B hereto (the “Private Placement Warrants”) and, in each case,
a non-exclusive right to exercise a corresponding number of Opco warrants initially issued to Company (such warrants, the “Opco
Warrants”), for an aggregate purchase price of $1.00 per Private Placement Warrant and such rights in the Opco Warrants;
and


 


WHEREAS, in order to finance the SPAC Parties’
transaction costs in connection with an intended Initial Business Combination (as defined below), the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor

of which up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into up to an additional 1,500,000 Private Placement Warrants and rights in
a corresponding number of Opco warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant; and


 


WHEREAS, the Company is engaged in an initial public
offering (the “Offering”) of units of the Company’s equity securities, each such unit comprised of one
Class A Ordinary Share (as defined below) and one-fourth of one whole Public Warrant (as defined below) (the “Units”)
and, in connection therewith, has determined to issue and deliver up to 7,187,500 warrants of the Company (including up to 937,500 warrants
subject to the Over-allotment Option) to public investors in the Offering (the “Public Warrants” and, together

Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one whole Class A Ordinary Share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per
share (“Class A Ordinary Shares”), for $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as described herein. Each whole
Private Placement Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase, subject to the limitations described herein, one whole Class A Ordinary
Share for $11.50, subject to adjustment as described herein; and


 






     

     


    

 


WHEREAS, the Company shall use the proceeds of

for $11.50 per unit, subject to adjustment as described herein; and


 


WHEREAS, the Company has filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-254080) (the “Registration
Statement”) and prospectus (the “Prospectus”), for the registration, under the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of the Units, the Public Warrants and the Class A Ordinary Shares
included in the Units; and


 


WHEREAS, the SPAC Parties desire the Warrant Agent

and exercise of the Warrants; and


 


WHEREAS, the SPAC Parties desire to provide for

WHEREAS, all acts and things have been done and
performed which are necessary to make the Company Warrants, when executed on behalf of the Company, and the Opco Warrants, when executed

    2


     


    

 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual
agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:


 


1. Appointment
of Warrant Agent. The SPAC Parties hereby appoint the Warrant Agent to act as agent for the SPAC Parties for the Warrants, and the
Warrant Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the same in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in
this Agreement.


 


2. Warrants.


 


2.1 Form
of Warrant. Each Warrant shall be initially issued in registered form only.


 


2.2 Effect
of Countersignature. If a physical certificate is issued, unless and until countersigned by the Warrant Agent pursuant to this Agreement,
a certificated Warrant shall be invalid and of no effect and may not be exercised by the holder thereof.


 


2.3 Registration.


 


2.3.1 Warrant
Register. The Warrant Agent shall maintain books (the “Warrant Register”), for the registration of original
issuance and the registration of transfer of the Warrants. Upon the initial issuance of the Warrants in book-entry form, the Warrant Agent
shall issue and register the Warrants in the names of the respective holders thereof in such denominations and otherwise in accordance
with instructions delivered to the Warrant Agent by the SPAC Parties. Ownership of beneficial interests in the Public Warrants shall be
shown on, and the transfer of such ownership shall be effected through, records maintained by institutions that have accounts with The
Depository Trust Company (the “Depositary”) (such institution, with respect to a Warrant in its account, a “Participant”).
If the Depositary subsequently ceases to make its book-entry settlement system available for the Public Warrants, the Company may instruct
the Warrant Agent regarding making other arrangements for book-entry settlement. In the event that the Public Warrants are not eligible
for, or it is no longer necessary to have the Public Warrants available in, book-entry form, the Warrant Agent shall provide written instructions
to the Depositary to deliver to the Warrant Agent for cancellation each book-entry Public Warrant, and the Company shall instruct the
Warrant Agent to deliver to the Depositary definitive certificates in physical form evidencing such Warrants (“Definitive
Warrant Certificates”) which shall be in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A.


 


Physical certificates, if issued,
shall be signed by, or bear the facsimile signature of, the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief
Accounting Officer, Secretary or other principal officer of the Company. In the event the person whose facsimile signature has been placed
upon any Warrant shall have ceased to serve in the capacity in which such person signed the Warrant before such Warrant is issued, it
may be issued with the same effect as if he or she had not ceased to be such at the date of issuance.


 


2.3.2 Registered
Holder. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Warrant, the SPAC Parties and the Warrant Agent may deem and
treat the person in whose name such Warrant is registered in the Warrant Register (the “Registered Holder”)
as the absolute owner of such Warrant and of each Warrant represented thereby, for the purpose of any exercise thereof, and for all other
purposes, and neither the SPAC Parties nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.


 






    3


     


    

 


2.4 Detachability
of Warrants. The Class A Ordinary Shares and Public Warrants comprising the Units shall begin separate trading on the 52nd day following
the date of the Prospectus or, if such 52nd day is not on a day, other than a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, on which banks in New
York City are generally open for normal business (a “Business Day”), then on the immediately succeeding Business
Day following such date, or earlier (the “Detachment Date”) with the consent of Citigroup Global Markets Inc.
and Barclays Capital Inc., representatives of the several underwriters, but in no event shall the Class A Ordinary Shares and the Public
Warrants comprising the Units be separately traded until (A) the Company has filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the Commission containing
an audited balance sheet reflecting the receipt by the Company of the gross proceeds of the Offering, including the proceeds received
by the Company from the exercise by the underwriters of their right to purchase additional Units in the Offering (the “Over-allotment
Option”), if the Over-allotment Option is exercised prior to the filing of the Current Report on Form 8-K, and (B) the Company
issues a press release announcing when such separate trading shall begin.


 


2.5 No
Fractional Warrants Other Than as Part of Units. The SPAC Parties shall not issue fractional Warrants other than as part of the Units,
each of which is comprised of one Class A Ordinary Share and one-fourth of one whole Public Warrant. If, upon the detachment of Public
Warrants from the Units or otherwise, a holder of Warrants would be entitled to receive a fractional Warrant, the Company shall round
down to the nearest whole number the number of Warrants to be issued to such holder.


 


2.6 Private
Placement Warrants; Opco Warrants and Warrant Rights.


 


2.6.1 Private
Placement Warrants. The Private Placement Warrants shall be identical to the Public Warrants, except that so long as they are held
by the Sponsor or any of its respective Permitted Transferees (as defined below), the Private Placement Warrants: (i) may be exercised
for cash or on a cashless basis, pursuant to subsection 3.3.1(c) hereof, (ii) will terminate as of the close of the first transaction
or series of transactions (whether through a merger, equity exchange or purchase, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar transaction)
resulting in a business combination involving the SPAC Parties and one or more operating businesses (the “Initial Business
Combination”) if any holder, other than the Company (or any of its subsidiaries), of the Class A Units of Opco associated
with such Opco Warrant Rights continues to hold any Class A Units of Opco (or of any successor to Opco) immediately after the close of
the Initial Business Combination, in which case the associated Opco Warrant Rights will not terminate, (iii) may not be transferred,
assigned or sold until thirty (30) days after the completion by the Company of an Initial Business Combination, and (iv) shall not be
redeemable by the Company for cash pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof; provided, however, that in the case of (iii),
the Private Placement Warrants and any Class A Ordinary Shares held by the Sponsor or any of its respective Permitted Transferees and
issued upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants or upon exchange of any Class A Units of Opco issued upon exercise of any warrants
of Opco may be transferred by the holders thereof:


 


(a) to
the Company’s officers or directors, any affiliates or family members of any of the Company’s officers or directors, any member(s)
or partners of the Sponsor or their affiliates, any affiliates of the Sponsor, or any employees of such affiliates;


 






    4


     


    

 


(b) in
the case of an individual, by gift to members of the individual’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a
member of one of the individual’s immediate family, an affiliate of such person or to a charitable organization;


 


(c) in
the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of such person;


 


(d) in
the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order;


 


(e) by
virtue of the Sponsor’s organizational documents upon liquidation of the Sponsor;


 


(f) by
private sales or transfers made in connection with any forward purchase agreement or similar agreement or in connection with the consummation
of the Company’s Initial Business Combination at prices no greater than the price at which the Private Placement Warrants or Class
A Ordinary Shares, as applicable, were originally purchased;


 


(g) to
the Company for no value for cancellation in connection with the consummation of the Initial Business Combination;


 


(h) in
the event of the Company’s liquidation prior to the completion of the Company’s Initial Business Combination; or


 


(i) in
the event of the Company’s completion of a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all
of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Class A Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property
subsequent to the completion of the Company’s Initial Business Combination;


 


provided, however, that, in the
case of clauses (a) through (f), these permitted transferees (the “Permitted Transferees”) must enter into a
written agreement with the SPAC Parties agreeing to be bound by the transfer restrictions in this Agreement and the other restrictions
contained in the letter agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among the SPAC Parties, the Sponsor, and the Company’s officers
and directors.


 


2.6.2 Opco
Warrants and Warrant Rights.


 


(a) Prior
to the consummation of the Initial Business Combination, the Company may transfer to the Sponsor or any of its respective Permitted Transferees
a non-exclusive right to exercise an Opco Warrant (“Opco Warrant Rights”). The holders of such Opco Warrant
Rights shall be designated on Exhibit C, as amended from time to time. The Opco Warrant Rights shall entitle the holder thereof
to exercise the underlying Opco Warrant subject to the terms hereof, and upon such exercise, the Company (or its transferees of the underlying
Opco Warrant) shall no longer have the right to exercise such Opco Warrant.


 






    5


     


    

 


(b) The
Opco Warrant Rights in respect of any Opco Warrant (i) will become exclusive to the holder thereof, and the rights of the Company (or
any of its subsidiaries) to the underlying Opco Warrant will terminate, as of the close of the Initial Business Combination, if any holder,
other than the Company (or any of its subsidiaries), of the Units of Opco associated with such Opco Warrant Rights continues to hold any
such Units of Opco (or of any successor to Opco) immediately after the close of the Initial Business Combination, (ii) will terminate
with respect to the holder of such Opco Warrant Rights, and the rights of the Company to the underlying Opco Warrant will become exclusive
to the Company, as of the close of the Initial Business Combination if Section 2.6.2(b)(i) hereof does not apply to such Opco Warrant
Rights, in which case the associated Private Placement Warrants will not terminate, and (iii) may not be transferred, assigned or sold;
provided, however, that in the case of (iii), the Opco Warrant Rights, any underlying Opco Warrants, and any Class A Units
and Class B Ordinary Shares held by the holder of such Opco Warrant Rights immediately after the Offering or any of its Permitted Transferees
and issued upon exercise of the Opco Warrant Rights may be transferred by the holders thereof to (x) any person listed in Section 2.6.1(a)-(h)
or (y) to the Company or any of its subsidiaries; provided, however, any Permitted Transferees must enter into a written
agreement with the SPAC Parties agreeing to be bound by the transfer restrictions in this Agreement.


 


(c) For
the avoidance of doubt, given that a holder of both a Private Placement Warrant and an associated Opco Warrant Right may not exercise
such rights until after the Initial Business Combination pursuant to Section 3.2, and one of either the Private Placement Warrant
or the associated Opco Warrant Right will terminate upon the Initial Business Combination pursuant to Section 2.6.1 or this Section
2.6.2, respectively, such holder shall only be able to exercise either the Private Placement Warrant or the Opco Warrant Right, but
not both. All provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted consistent with this Section 2.6.2(z).


 


(d) To
the extent appropriate as determined in the good faith of the Company and Opco, where the provisions after Section 2 of this Agreement
refer to Warrants, Company Warrants, Private Placement Warrants, Class A Ordinary Shares, or the Company or associated terms, such provisions
shall apply in a similar manner to the Opco Warrants, Class A Units of Opco (and associated Class B Ordinary Shares) and Opco or associated
terms.


 


2.6.3 Certain
Actions by the Company. Upon the exercise of any Company Warrant, the Company shall, in accordance with the provisions of the Opco
LLC Agreement, exercise a corresponding Opco Warrant on the same terms on which such Opco Warrant was exercised. Upon the exercise of
any Opco Warrants (other than by the Company or any of its subsidiaries), the Company shall issue to Opco, for delivery to the person
exercising such Opco Warrants, a number of Class B Ordinary Shares, equal to the number of Class A Units issued upon the exercise of such
Opco Warrants.


 






    6


     


    

 


3. Terms
and Exercise of Warrants.


 


3.1 Warrant
Price. Each whole Warrant shall entitle the Registered Holder thereof, subject to the provisions of such Warrant and of this Agreement,
(a) in the case of a Company Warrant, to purchase from the Company the number of Class A Ordinary Shares stated therein, at the price
of $11.50 per share, and (b) in the case of an Opco Warrant, to purchase from Opco the number of Class A Units (and in the case of a holder
other than the Company or its subsidiaries, a corresponding number of Class B Ordinary Shares) stated therein, at the price of $11.50
per unit (and corresponding share, as applicable), in each case, subject to the adjustments provided in Section 4 hereof and in
the last sentence of this Section 3.1. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company (or any wholly owned subsidiary) assigns a non-exclusive
Opco Warrant Right in respect of an Opco Warrant to any other person pursuant to this Agreement, Opco shall only be required to issue
one (1) Class A Units in respect of such Opco Warrant and associated Opco Warrant Right, either to the Company (or its wholly owned subsidiary)
or to the holder of the Opco Warrant Right, respectively. The term “Warrant Price” as used in this Agreement
shall mean the price per share (including in cash or by payment of Warrants pursuant to a “cashless exercise,” to the extent
permitted hereunder) described in the prior sentence at which Class A Ordinary Shares may be purchased at the time a Warrant is exercised.
The Company in its sole discretion may lower the Warrant Price at any time prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below) for a period
of not less than fifteen (15) Business Days (unless otherwise required by the Commission, any national securities exchange on which the
Warrants are listed or applicable law), provided, that the Company shall provide at least five (5) days’ prior written notice of
such reduction to Registered Holders of the Warrants and, provided further that any such reduction shall be identical among all of the
Warrants.


 


3.2 Duration
of Warrants. A Warrant may be exercised only during the period (the “Exercise Period”) (i) commencing on
the date that is thirty (30) days after the first date on which the SPAC Parties complete an Initial Business Combination and (ii) terminating
at the earliest to occur of (x) 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the date that is five (5) years after the date on which the SPAC Parties
complete an Initial Business Combination, (y) the liquidation of the Company, in accordance with the Company’s Amended and Restated
Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended from time to time, if the Company fails to complete the Initial Business Combination,
and (z) other than with respect to the Private Placement Warrants or the Opco Warrants then held by the Sponsor or its Permitted Transferees
with respect to a redemption pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof or, if the Reference Value equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (subject
to adjustment in compliance with Section 4 hereof), Section 6.2 hereof, 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the Redemption
Date (as defined below) as provided in Section 6.3 hereof (the “Expiration Date”); provided, however,
that the exercise of any Warrant shall be subject to the satisfaction of any applicable conditions, as set forth in subsection 3.3.2
below with respect to an effective registration statement or a valid exemption therefrom being available. Except with respect to the right
to receive the Redemption Price (as defined below) (other than with respect to a Private Placement Warrant then held by the Sponsor or
its Permitted Transferees in connection with a redemption pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof or, if the Reference Value equals or exceeds
$18.00 per share (subject to adjustment in compliance with Section 4 hereof), Section 6.2 hereof) in the event of a redemption
(as set forth in Section 6 hereof), each Warrant (other than a Private Placement Warrant then held by the Sponsor or its Permitted
Transferees in the event of a redemption pursuant to Section 6.1 hereof or, if the Reference Value equals or exceeds $18.00 per
share (subject to adjustment in compliance with Section 4 hereof), Section 6.2 hereof) not exercised on or before the Expiration
Date shall become void, and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Agreement shall cease at 5:00 p.m. New
York City time on the Expiration Date. The Company in its sole discretion may extend the duration of the Warrants by delaying the Expiration
Date; provided, that the Company shall provide at least twenty (20) days prior written notice of any such extension to Registered
Holders of the Warrants and, provided further that any such extension shall be identical in duration among all the Warrants.

3.3 Exercise
of Warrants.


 


3.3.1 Payment.
Subject to the provisions of the Warrant and this Agreement, a Warrant may be exercised by the Registered Holder thereof by delivering
to the Warrant Agent at its corporate trust department (i) the Definitive Warrant Certificate evidencing the Warrants to be exercised,
or, in the case of a Warrant represented by a book-entry, the Warrants to be exercised (the “Book-Entry Warrants”)
on the records of the Depositary to an account of the Warrant Agent at the Depositary designated for such purposes in writing by the Warrant
Agent to the Depositary from time to time, (ii) an election to purchase (“Election to Purchase”) any Class A
Ordinary Shares pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant, properly completed and executed by the Registered Holder on the reverse of the
Definitive Warrant Certificate or, in the case of a Book-Entry Warrant, properly delivered by the Participant in accordance with the Depositary’s
procedures, and (iii) the payment in full the Warrant Price for each full Class A Ordinary Share or Class A Unit (and corresponding Class
B Ordinary Shares), as applicable, as to which the Warrant is exercised and any and all applicable taxes due in connection with the exercise
of the Warrant, the exchange of the Warrant for the Class A Ordinary Shares or Class A Unit (and corresponding Class B Ordinary Shares),
as applicable, and the issuance of such Class A Ordinary Shares or Class A Unit (and corresponding Class B Ordinary Share), as applicable,
as follows:


 


(a) in
lawful money of the United States, in good certified check or good bank draft payable to the order of the Warrant Agent;


 


(b) [Reserved];


 


(c) with
respect to any Private Placement Warrant, so long as such Private Placement Warrant is held by the Sponsor, or a Permitted Transferee,
by surrendering the Warrants for that number of Class A Ordinary Shares equal to (i) if in connection with a redemption of Private Placement
Warrants pursuant to Section 6.2 hereof, as provided in Section 6.2 hereof with respect to a Make-Whole Exercise (as defined
below) and (ii) in all other scenarios the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of Class A Ordinary Shares underlying
the Warrants, multiplied by the excess of the “Fair Market Value” (as defined in this subsection 3.3.1(c)) less the
Warrant Price by (y) the Fair Market Value. Solely for purposes of this subsection 3.3.1(c), the “Fair Market Value”
shall mean the average last reported sale price of the Class A Ordinary Shares for the ten (10) trading days ending on the third (3rd)
trading day prior to the date on which notice of exercise of the Private Placement Warrant is sent to the Warrant Agent;


 


(d) as
provided in Section 6.2 hereof with respect to a Make-Whole Exercise; or


 


(e) as
provided in Section 7.4 hereof.


 






    8


     


    

 


3.3.2 Issuance
of Class A Ordinary Shares on Exercise. As soon as practicable after the exercise of any Warrant and the clearance of the funds in
payment of the Warrant Price (if payment is pursuant to subsection 3.3.1(a)), the Company shall issue to the Registered Holder
of such Warrant a book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for the number of full Class A Ordinary Shares to which he, she or
it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it on the register of members of the Company, and if
such Warrant shall not have been exercised in full, a new book-entry position or countersigned Warrant, as applicable, for the number
of Class A Ordinary Shares as to which such Warrant shall not have been exercised. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not
be obligated to deliver any Class A Ordinary Shares pursuant to the exercise of a Warrant and shall have no obligation to settle such
Warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Warrants
is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company’s satisfying its obligations under Section
7.4 or a valid exemption from registration is available. No Warrant shall be exercisable and the Company shall not be obligated to
issue Class A Ordinary Shares upon exercise of a Warrant unless the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon such Warrant exercise have been
registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt from registration or qualification under the securities laws of the state of residence of
the Registered Holder of the Warrants. Subject to Section 4.6 of this Agreement, a Registered Holder of Warrants may exercise its
Warrants only for a whole number of Class A Ordinary Shares. The Company may require holders of Public Warrants to settle the Public Warrant
on a “cashless basis” pursuant to Section 7.4. If, by reason of any exercise of Warrants on a “cashless
basis”, the holder of any Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such Warrant, to receive a fractional interest
in a Class A Ordinary Share, the Company shall round down to the nearest whole number the number of Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued
to such holder.


 


3.3.3 Valid
Issuance. All Class A Ordinary Shares issued upon the proper exercise of a Warrant in conformity with this Agreement shall be validly
issued and, solely with respect to the Class A Ordinary Shares, fully paid and non-assessable.


 


3.3.4 Date
of Issuance. Each person in whose name any book-entry position or certificate, as applicable, for Class A Ordinary Shares is issued
and who is registered in the register of members of the Company shall for all purposes be deemed to have become the holder of record of
such Class A Ordinary Shares on the date on which the Warrant, or book-entry position representing such Warrant, was surrendered and payment
of the Warrant Price was made, irrespective of the date of delivery of such certificate in the case of a certificated Warrant, except
that, if the date of such surrender and payment is a date when the resister of members of the Company or book-entry system of the Warrant
Agent are closed, such person shall be deemed to have become the holder of such Class A Ordinary Shares at the close of business on the
next succeeding date on which the share transfer books or book-entry system are open.


 






    9


     


    

 


3.3.5 Maximum
Percentage. A holder of a Warrant may notify the Company in writing in the event it elects to be subject to the provisions contained
in this subsection 3.3.5; however, no holder of a Warrant shall be subject to this subsection 3.3.5 unless he, she or it
makes such election. If the election is made by a holder, the Warrant Agent shall not effect the exercise of the holder’s Warrant,
and such holder shall not have the right to exercise such Warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person
(together with such person’s affiliates), to the Warrant Agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 9.8%
(the “Maximum Percentage”) of the Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding immediately after giving effect to such
exercise. For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the aggregate number of Class A Ordinary Shares beneficially owned by such person and
its affiliates shall include the number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrant with respect to which the determination
of such sentence is being made, but shall exclude Class A Ordinary Shares that would be issuable upon (x) exercise of the remaining, unexercised
portion of the Warrant beneficially owned by such person and its affiliates and (y) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or unconverted
portion of any other securities of the Company beneficially owned by such person and its affiliates (including, without limitation, any
convertible notes or convertible preferred shares or warrants) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation
contained herein. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this paragraph, beneficial ownership shall be calculated
in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). For
purposes of the Warrant, in determining the number of outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares, the holder may rely on the number of outstanding
Class A Ordinary Shares as reflected in (1) the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q,
Current Report on Form 8-K or other public filing with the Commission as the case may be, (2) a more recent public announcement by the
Company or (3) any other notice by the Company or Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as transfer agent (in such capacity,
the ” Transfer Agent”) setting forth the number of Class A Ordinary Shares outstanding. For any reason at any
time, upon the written request of the holder of the Warrant, the Company shall, within two (2) Business Days, confirm orally and in writing
to such holder the number of Class A Ordinary Shares then outstanding. In any case, the number of issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary
Shares shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of equity securities of the Company by the holder and its
affiliates since the date as of which such number of issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares was reported. By written notice to
the Company, the holder of a Warrant may from time to time increase or decrease the Maximum Percentage applicable to such holder to any
other percentage specified in such notice; provided, however, that any such increase shall not be effective until the sixty-first
(61st) day after such notice is delivered to the Company.


 


4. Adjustments.


 


4.1 Share
Capitalizations.


 


4.1.1 Sub-Divisions.
If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.6 below, the number of issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary
Shares is increased by a capitalization or share dividend of Class A Ordinary Shares, or by a sub-division of Class A Ordinary Shares
or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such share capitalization, sub-division or similar event, the number of Class A
Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be increased in proportion to such increase in the issued and outstanding Class
A Ordinary Shares. A rights offering made to all or substantially all holders of Class A Ordinary Shares entitling holders to purchase
Class A Ordinary Shares at a price less than the “Historical Fair Market Value” (as defined below) shall be deemed a capitalization
of a number of Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the product of (i) the number of Class A Ordinary Shares actually sold in such rights
offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for the
Class A Ordinary Shares) multiplied by (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per Class A Ordinary Share paid in such rights
offering divided by (y) the Historical Fair Market Value. For purposes of this subsection 4.1.1, (i) if the rights offering is
for securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A Ordinary Shares, in determining the price payable for Class A Ordinary Shares,
there shall be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or
conversion and (ii) “Historical Fair Market Value” means the volume weighted average price of the Class A Ordinary
Shares during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the Class A Ordinary Shares trade
on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights. No Class A Ordinary Shares
shall be issued at less than their par value.

4.1.2 Extraordinary Dividends. If the
Company, at any time while the Warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pays to all or substantially all of the holders of the Class A
Ordinary Shares a dividend or make a distribution in cash, securities or other assets on account of such Class A Ordinary Shares (or
other shares into which the Warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described in subsection 4.1.1 above, (b) Ordinary Cash
Dividends (as defined below), (c) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of the Class A Ordinary Shares in connection with a
proposed Initial Business Combination, (d) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of the Class A Ordinary Shares in connection
with a shareholder vote to amend the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles
of Association to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide holders of Class A Ordinary Shares the
right to have their shares redeemed in connection with the Initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the Company’s public
shares if it does not complete its Initial Business Combination within the time period required by the Company’s Amended and Restated
Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended from time to time,  (e) as a result of the repurchase of Class A Ordinary Shares by the Company if a proposed Initial
Business Combination is presented to the shareholders of the Company for approval or (f) in connection with the redemption of public
shares upon the failure of the Company to complete its Initial Business Combination and any subsequent distribution of its assets upon
its liquidation (any such non-excluded event being referred to herein as an “Extraordinary Dividend”), then
the Warrant Price shall be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such Extraordinary Dividend, by the amount of
cash and/or the fair market value (as determined by the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), in
good faith) of any securities or other assets paid on each Class A Ordinary Share in respect of such Extraordinary Dividend. For purposes
of this subsection 4.1.2, “Ordinary Cash Dividends” means any cash dividend or cash distribution which,
when combined on a per share basis, with the per share amounts of all other cash dividends and cash distributions paid on the Class A
Ordinary Shares during the 365-day period ending on the date of declaration of such dividend or distribution to the extent it does not
exceed $0.50 (which amount shall be adjusted to appropriately reflect any of the events referred to in other subsections of this Section
4 and excluding cash dividends or cash distributions that resulted in an adjustment to the Warrant Price or to the number of Class
A Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each Warrant).


 


4.2 Aggregation
of Shares. If after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 4.6 hereof, the number of issued and outstanding
Class A Ordinary Shares is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse share split or reclassification of Class A Ordinary Shares
or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse share split, reclassification or similar
event, the number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable on exercise of each Warrant shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in
issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares.


 






    11


     


    

 


4.3 Adjustments
in Exercise Price. Whenever the number of Class A Ordinary Shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants is adjusted, as provided
in subsection 4.1.1 or Section 4.2 above, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) by multiplying such
Warrant Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which shall be the number of Class A Ordinary Shares
purchasable upon the exercise of the Warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which shall be the number
of Class A Ordinary Shares so purchasable immediately thereafter. If (x) the Company issues additional Class A Ordinary Shares or equity-linked
securities for capital raising purposes at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per Class A Ordinary Share (with
such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Board and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor
or its affiliates, without taking into account any Class A Ordinary Share of the Company issued prior to the Offering and held by the
Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds
from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of the Company’s
Initial Business Combination on the date of the completion of the Company’s Initial Business Combination (net of redemptions), and
(z) the volume-weighted average trading price of Class A Ordinary Shares during the twenty (20) trading day period starting on the trading
day prior to the day on which the Company consummates its Initial Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is
below $9.20 per share, the Warrant Price shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value
and the Newly Issued Price, the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described in Section 6.1 and Section 6.2 shall
be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price and the $10.00 per
share redemption trigger price described in Section 6.2 shall be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to the higher of the
Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.


 


4.4 Replacement
of Securities upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary
Shares (other than a change under Section 4.1 or Section 4.2 hereof or that solely affects the par value of such Class
A Ordinary Shares), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation
or merger in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the
issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets
or other property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved, the
holders of the Warrants shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified
in the Warrants and in lieu of the Class A Ordinary Shares of the Company immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the
exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares or stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable
upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that
the holder of the Warrants would have received if such holder had exercised his, her or its Warrant(s) immediately prior to such event
(the “Alternative Issuance” ); provided, however, that (i) if the holders of the Class A Ordinary Shares were
entitled to exercise a right of election as to the kind or amount of securities, cash or other assets receivable upon such consolidation
or merger, then the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets constituting the Alternative Issuance for which each Warrant
shall become exercisable shall be deemed to be the weighted average of the kind and amount received per share by the holders of the Class
A Ordinary Shares in such consolidation or merger that affirmatively make such election, and (ii) if a tender, exchange or redemption
offer shall have been made to and accepted by the holders of the Class A Ordinary Shares (other than a tender, exchange or redemption
offer made by the Company in connection with redemption rights held by shareholders of the Company as provided for in the Company’s
Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, as amended from time to time, or as a result of the redemption of Class
A Ordinary Shares by the Company if a proposed Initial Business Combination is presented to the shareholders of the Company for approval)
under circumstances in which, upon completion of such tender or exchange offer, the maker thereof, together with members of any group
(within the meaning of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) under the Exchange Act) of which such maker is a part, and together with any affiliate or associate
of such maker (within the meaning of Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) and any members of any such group of which any such affiliate
or associate is a part, own beneficially (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) more than 50% of the issued and outstanding
Class A Ordinary Shares, the holder of a Warrant shall be entitled to receive as the Alternative Issuance, the highest amount of cash,
securities or other property to which such holder would actually have been entitled as a shareholder if such Warrant holder had exercised
the Warrant prior to the expiration of such tender or exchange offer, accepted such offer and all of the Class A Ordinary Shares held
by such holder had been purchased pursuant to such tender or exchange offer, subject to adjustments (from and after the consummation
of such tender or exchange offer) as nearly equivalent as possible to the adjustments provided for in this Section 4; provided
further that if less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of the Class A Ordinary Shares in the applicable event
is payable in the form of shares in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in
an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the Registered
Holder properly exercises the Warrant within thirty (30) days following the public disclosure of the consummation of such applicable
event by the Company pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Commission, the Warrant Price shall be reduced by an amount
(in dollars) equal to the difference of (i) the Warrant Price in effect prior to such reduction minus (ii) (A) the Per Share Consideration
(as defined below) (but in no event less than zero) minus (B) the Black-Scholes Warrant Value (as defined below). The “Black-Scholes
Warrant Value” means the value of a Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of the applicable event based on the
Black-Scholes Warrant Model for a Capped American Call on Bloomberg Financial Markets (assuming zero dividends) (“Bloomberg”).
For purposes of calculating such amount, (i) Section 6 of this Agreement shall be taken into account, (ii) the price of each Class
A Ordinary Share shall be the volume weighted average price of the Class A Ordinary Shares during the ten (10) trading day period ending
on the trading day prior to the effective date of the applicable event, (iii) the assumed volatility shall be the 90 day volatility obtained
from the HVT function on Bloomberg determined as of the trading day immediately prior to the day of the announcement of the applicable
event and (iv) the assumed risk-free interest rate shall correspond to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the remaining term
of the Warrant. “Per Share Consideration” means (i) if the consideration paid to holders of the Class A Ordinary
Shares consists exclusively of cash, the amount of such cash per Class A Ordinary Share, and (ii) in all other cases, the volume weighted
average price of the Class A Ordinary Shares during the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the effective
date of the applicable event. If any reclassification or reorganization also results in a change in Class A Ordinary Shares covered by
subsection 4.1.1, then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to subsection 4.1.1 or Sections 4.2, 4.3 and
this Section 4.4. The provisions of this Section 4.4 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations,
mergers or consolidations, sales or other transfers. In no event shall the Warrant Price be reduced to less than the par value per share
issuable upon exercise of such Warrant.


 






    12


     


    

 


4.5 Notices
of Changes in Warrant. Upon every adjustment of the Warrant Price or the number of Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise
of a Warrant, the Company shall give written notice thereof to the Warrant Agent, which notice shall state the Warrant Price resulting
from such adjustment and the increase or decrease, if any, in the number of Class A Ordinary Shares purchasable at such price upon the
exercise of a Warrant, setting forth in reasonable detail the method of calculation and the facts upon which such calculation is based.
Upon the occurrence of any event specified in Sections 4.1, 4.2, 4.3 or 4.4, the Company shall give written notice of the
occurrence of such event to each holder of a Warrant, at the last address set forth for such holder in the Warrant Register, of the record
date or the effective date of the event. Failure to give such notice, or any defect therein, shall not affect the legality or validity
of such event.


 


4.6 No
Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company shall not issue fractional
Class A Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of Warrants. If, by reason of any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 4, the holder
of any Warrant would be entitled, upon the exercise of such Warrant, to receive a fractional interest in a share, the Company shall, upon
such exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued to such holder.


 


4.7 Form
of Warrant. The form of Warrant need not be changed because of any adjustment pursuant to this Section 4, and Warrants issued
after such adjustment may state the same Warrant Price and the same number of Class A Ordinary Shares as is stated in the Warrants initially
issued pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that the Company may at any time in its sole discretion make any change in the form
of Warrant that the Company may deem appropriate and that does not affect the substance thereof, and any Warrant thereafter issued or
countersigned, whether in exchange or substitution for an outstanding Warrant or otherwise, may be in the form as so changed.


 


5. Transfer
and Exchange of Warrants.


 


5.1 Registration
of Transfer. The Warrant Agent shall register the transfer, from time to time, of any outstanding Warrant upon the Warrant Register,
upon surrender of such Warrant for transfer, properly endorsed with signatures properly guaranteed and accompanied by appropriate instructions
for transfer. Upon any such transfer, a new Warrant representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants shall be issued and the old Warrant
shall be cancelled by the Warrant Agent. In the case of certificated Warrants, the Warrants so cancelled shall be delivered by the Warrant
Agent to the Company from time to time upon request.


 






    13


     


    

 


5.2 Procedure
for Surrender of Warrants. Warrants may be surrendered to the Warrant Agent, together with a written request for exchange or transfer,
and thereupon the Warrant Agent shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new Warrants as requested by the Registered Holder of the
Warrants so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of Warrants; provided, however, that except as otherwise provided herein
or with respect to any Book-Entry Warrant, each Book-Entry Warrant may be transferred only in whole and only to the Depositary, to another
nominee of the Depositary, to a successor depository, or to a nominee of a successor depository; provided further, however that in the
event that a Warrant surrendered for transfer bears a restrictive legend (as in the case of the Private Placement Warrants), the Warrant
Agent shall not cancel such Warrant and issue new Warrants in exchange thereof until the Warrant Agent has received an opinion of counsel
for the Company stating that such transfer may be made and indicating whether the new Warrants must also bear a restrictive legend.


 


5.3 Fractional
Warrants. The Warrant Agent shall not be required to effect any registration of transfer or exchange which shall result in the issuance
of a warrant certificate or book-entry position for a fraction of a warrant, except as part of the Units.


 


5.4 Service
Charges. No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of Warrants.


 


5.5 Warrant
Execution and Countersignature. The Warrant Agent is hereby authorized to countersign and to deliver, in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement, the Warrants required to be issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5, and the Company, whenever required
by the Warrant Agent, shall supply the Warrant Agent with Warrants duly executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose.


 


5.6 Transfer
of Warrants. Prior to the Detachment Date, the Public Warrants may be transferred or exchanged only together with the Unit in which
such Warrant is included, and only for the purpose of effecting, or in conjunction with, a transfer or exchange of such Unit. Furthermore,
each transfer of a Unit on the register relating to such Units shall operate also to transfer the Warrants included in such Unit. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 5.6 shall have no effect on any transfer of Warrants on and after the Detachment
Date.


 


6. Redemption.


 


6.1 Redemption
of Warrants for Cash. Subject to Section 6.5 hereof, not less than all of the outstanding Warrants may be redeemed, at the
option of the Company, at any time during the Exercise Period, at the office of the Warrant Agent, upon notice to the Registered Holders
of the Warrants, as described in Section 6.3 below, at a Redemption Price of $0.01 per Warrant, provided that (a) the Reference
Value equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (subject to adjustment in compliance with Section 4 hereof) and (b) there is an effective
registration statement covering the issuance of the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, and a current prospectus
relating thereto, available throughout the 30-day Redemption Period (as defined in Section 6.3 below).


 






    14


     


    

 


6.2 Redemption
of Warrants for Class A Ordinary Shares. Subject to Section 6.5 hereof, not less than all of the outstanding Warrants may be
redeemed, at the option of the Company, at any time during the Exercise Period, at the office of the Warrant Agent, upon notice to the
Registered Holders of the Warrants, as described in Section 6.3 below, at a Redemption Price of $0.10 per Warrant, provided that
(i) the Reference Value equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (subject to adjustment in compliance with Section 4 hereof) and (ii)
if the Reference Value is less than $18.00 per share (subject to adjustment in compliance with Section 4 hereof), the Private Placement
Warrants are also concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants. During the 30-day Redemption
Period in connection with a redemption pursuant to this Section 6.2, Registered Holders of the Warrants may elect to exercise their
Warrants on a “cashless basis” pursuant to subsection 3.3.1 and receive a number of Class A Ordinary Shares determined
by reference to the table below, based on the Redemption Date (calculated for purposes of the table as the period to expiration of the
Warrants) and the “Redemption Fair Market Value” (as such term is defined in this Section 6.2) (a “Make-Whole
Exercise”). Solely for purposes of this Section 6.2, the “Redemption Fair Market Value”
shall mean the volume weighted average price of the Class A Ordinary Shares for the ten (10) trading days immediately following the date
on which notice of redemption pursuant to this Section 6.2 is sent to the Registered Holders. In connection with any redemption
pursuant to this Section 6.2, the Company shall provide the Registered Holders with the Redemption Fair Market Value no later than
one (1) Business Day after the ten (10) trading day period described above ends.

The exact Redemption Fair Market Value and Redemption
Date may not be set forth in the table above, in which case, if the Redemption Fair Market Value is between two values in the table or
the Redemption Date is between two redemption dates in the table, the number of Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued for each Warrant
exercised in a Make-Whole Exercise shall be determined by a straight-line interpolation between the number of shares set forth for the
higher and lower Redemption Fair Market Values and the earlier and later redemption dates, as applicable, based on a 365- or 366-day year,
as applicable.


 






    15


     


    

 


The share prices set forth in the column headings
of the table above shall be adjusted as of any date on which the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant or the Exercise
Price is adjusted pursuant to Section 4 hereof. If the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant is adjusted pursuant
to Section 4 hereof, the adjusted share prices in the column headings shall equal the share prices immediately prior to such adjustment,
multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of a Warrant immediately prior to such
adjustment and the denominator of which is the number of shares deliverable upon exercise of a Warrant as so adjusted. The number of shares
in the table above shall be adjusted in the same manner and at the same time as the number of shares issuable upon exercise of a Warrant.
If the Exercise Price of a warrant is adjusted, (a) in the case of an adjustment pursuant to Section 4.4 hereof, the adjusted share
prices in the column headings shall equal the share prices immediately prior to such adjustment multiplied by a fraction, the numerator
of which is the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price and the denominator of which is $10.00 and (b) in the case of an
adjustment pursuant to Section 4.1.2 hereof, the adjusted share prices in the column headings shall equal the share prices immediately
prior to such adjustment less the decrease in the Exercise Price pursuant to such Exercise Price adjustment. In no event shall the number
of shares issued in connection with a Make-Whole Exercise exceed 0.361 Class A Ordinary Shares per Warrant (subject to adjustment).


 


6.3 Date
Fixed for, and Notice of, Redemption, Redemption Rice; Reference Value. In the event that the Company elects to redeem the Public
Warrants pursuant to Section 6.1 or 6.2, the Company shall fix a date for the redemption (the “Redemption Date”).
Notice of redemption shall be mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, by the Company not less than thirty (30) days prior to the
Redemption Date (the “30-day Redemption Period”) to the Registered Holders of the Warrants to be redeemed at
their last addresses as they shall appear on the registration books. Any notice mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively
presumed to have been duly given whether or not the Registered Holder received such notice. As used in this Agreement, (a) “Redemption
Price” shall mean the price per Warrant at which any Warrants are redeemed pursuant to Sections 6.1 or 6.2
and (b) “Reference Value” shall mean the last reported sales price of the Class A Ordinary Shares for any twenty
(20) trading days within the thirty (30) trading-day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which notice of the redemption
is given.


 


6.4 Exercise
After Notice of Redemption. The Warrants may be exercised, for cash (or on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section
6.2 of this Agreement) at any time after notice of redemption shall have been given by the Company pursuant to Section 6.3
hereof and prior to the Redemption Date. On and after the Redemption Date, the record holder of the Warrants shall have no further rights
except to receive, upon surrender of the Warrants, the Redemption Price.

6.5 Exclusion
of Private Placement Warrants.


 


6.5.1 The
Company agrees that (a) the redemption rights provided in Section 6.1 hereof shall not apply to the Private Placement Warrants
if at the time of the redemption such Private Placement Warrants continue to be held by the Sponsor or its Permitted Transferees and (b)
if the Reference Value equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (subject to adjustment in compliance with Section 4 hereof), the redemption
rights provided in Section 6.2 hereof shall not apply to the Private Placement Warrants if at the time of the redemption such Private
Placement Warrants continue to be held by the Sponsor or its Permitted Transferees. However, once such Private Placement Warrants are
transferred (other than to Permitted Transferees in accordance with Section 2.6 hereof), the Company may redeem the Private Placement
Warrants, provided that the criteria for redemption are met, including the opportunity of the holder of such Private Placement
Warrants to exercise the Private Placement Warrants prior to redemption pursuant to Section 6.4 hereof. Private Placement Warrants
that are transferred to persons other than Permitted Transferees shall upon such transfer cease to be Private Placement Warrants and shall
become Public Warrants under this Agreement, including for purposes of Section 9.8 hereof.


 


7. Other
Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Warrants.


 


7.1 No
Rights as Shareholder. A Warrant does not entitle the Registered Holder thereof to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company,
including, without limitation, the right to receive dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent
or to receive notice as shareholders in respect of the meetings of shareholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other
matter.


 


7.2 Lost,
Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Warrants. If any Warrant is lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed, the Company and the Warrant Agent
may on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as they may in their discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Warrant,
include the surrender thereof), issue a new Warrant of like denomination, tenor, and date as the Warrant so lost, stolen, mutilated, or
destroyed. Any such new Warrant shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly lost,
stolen, mutilated, or destroyed Warrant shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.


 


7.3 Reservation
of Class A Ordinary Shares. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued Class
A Ordinary Shares that shall be sufficient to permit the exercise in full of all outstanding Warrants issued pursuant to this Agreement.


 






    17


     


    

 


7.4 Registration
of Class A Ordinary Shares; Cashless Exercise at Company’s Option.


 


7.4.1 Registration
of the Class A Ordinary Shares. The Company agrees that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than twenty (20) Business Days
after the closing of its Initial Business Combination, it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to file with the Commission a
post-effective amendment to the registration statement for the Public Offering or a new registration statement for the registration, under
the Securities Act, of the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to cause the same to become effective within sixty (60) Business Days following the closing of its Initial Business Combination
and to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement, and a current prospectus relating thereto, until the expiration or redemption
of the Warrants in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. If any such registration statement has not been declared effective
by the sixtieth (60th) Business Day following the closing of the Initial Business Combination, holders of the Warrants shall have the
right, during the period beginning on the sixty-first (61st) Business Day after the closing of the Initial Business Combination and ending
upon such registration statement being declared effective by the Commission, and during any other period when the Company shall fail to
have maintained an effective registration statement covering the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, to exercise
such Warrants on a “cashless basis,” by exchanging the Warrants (in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act
or another exemption) for that number of Class A Ordinary Shares equal to the lesser of (A) the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the
product of the number of Class A Ordinary Shares underlying the Warrants, multiplied by the difference between the Warrant Price and the
“Fair Market Value” (as defined below) by (y) the Fair Market Value and (B) 0.361. Solely for purposes of this subsection
7.4.1, “Fair Market Value” shall mean the volume weighted average price of the Class A Ordinary Shares as reported during
the ten (10) trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the date that notice of exercise is received by the Warrant Agent from
the holder of such Warrants or its securities broker or intermediary. The date that notice of cashless exercise is received by the Warrant
Agent shall be conclusively determined by the Warrant Agent. In connection with the “cashless exercise” of a Public Warrant,
the Company shall, upon request, provide the Warrant Agent with an opinion of counsel for the Company (which shall be an outside law firm
with securities law experience) stating that (i) the exercise of the Warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with this
subsection 7.4.1 is not required to be registered under the Securities Act and (ii) the Class A Ordinary Shares issued upon such
exercise shall be freely tradable under United States federal securities laws by anyone who is not an affiliate (as such term is defined
in Rule 144 under the Securities Act) of the Company and, accordingly, shall not be required to bear a restrictive legend. Except as provided
in subsection 7.4.2, for the avoidance of doubt, unless and until all of the Warrants have been exercised or have expired, the
Company shall continue to be obligated to comply with its registration obligations under the first three sentences of this subsection
7.4.1.


 


7.4.2 Cashless
Exercise at Company’s Option. If the Class A Ordinary Shares are at the time of any exercise of a Public Warrant not listed
on a national securities exchange such that they satisfy the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of
the Securities Act, the Company may, at its option, (i) require holders of Public Warrants who exercise Public Warrants to exercise such
Public Warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act as described in subsection
7.4.1 and (ii) in the event the Company so elects, the Company shall (x) not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration
statement for the registration, under the Securities Act, of the Class A Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants, notwithstanding
anything in this Agreement to the contrary and (y) use its commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify for sale the Class A
Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Public Warrant under the applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available.


 


8. Concerning
the Warrant Agent and Other Matters.


 


8.1 Payment
of Taxes. The Company shall from time to time promptly pay all taxes and charges that may be imposed upon the Company or the Warrant
Agent in respect of the issuance or delivery of Class A Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of the Warrants, but the Company shall not be
obligated to pay any transfer taxes in respect of the Warrants or such Class A Ordinary Shares.

8.2 Resignation,
Consolidation, or Merger of Warrant Agent.


 


8.2.1 Appointment
of Successor Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent, or any successor to it hereafter appointed, may resign its duties and be discharged
from all further duties and liabilities hereunder after giving sixty (60) days’ notice in writing to the Company. If the office
of the Warrant Agent becomes vacant by resignation or incapacity to act or otherwise, the Company shall appoint in writing a successor
Warrant Agent in place of the Warrant Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of thirty (30) days after
it has been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the Warrant Agent or by the holder of a Warrant (who shall, with
such notice, submit his, her or its Warrant for inspection by the Company), then the holder of any Warrant may apply to the Supreme Court
of the State of New York for the County of New York for the appointment of a successor Warrant Agent at the Company’s cost. Any
successor Warrant Agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such court, shall be a corporation or other entity organized and existing
under the laws of the State of New York, in good standing and having its principal office in the United States of America, and authorized
under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. After appointment,
any successor Warrant Agent shall be vested with all the authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties, and obligations of its predecessor
Warrant Agent with like effect as if originally named as Warrant Agent hereunder, without any further act or deed; but if for any reason
it becomes necessary or appropriate, the predecessor Warrant Agent shall execute and deliver, at the expense of the Company, an instrument
transferring to such successor Warrant Agent all the authority, powers, and rights of such predecessor Warrant Agent hereunder; and upon
request of any successor Warrant Agent the Company shall make, execute, acknowledge, and deliver any and all instruments in writing for
more fully and effectually vesting in and confirming to such successor Warrant Agent all such authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties,
and obligations.


 


8.2.2 Notice
of Successor Warrant Agent. In the event a successor Warrant Agent shall be appointed, the Company shall give notice thereof to the
predecessor Warrant Agent and the Transfer Agent for the Class A Ordinary Shares not later than the effective date of any such appointment.


 


8.2.3 Merger
or Consolidation of Warrant Agent. Any entity into which the Warrant Agent may be merged or with which it may be consolidated or any
entity resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Warrant Agent shall be a party shall be the successor Warrant Agent under
this Agreement without any further act.


 


8.3 Fees
and Expenses of Warrant Agent.


 


8.3.1 Remuneration.
The Company agrees to pay the Warrant Agent reasonable remuneration for its services as such Warrant Agent hereunder and shall, pursuant
to its obligations under this Agreement, reimburse the Warrant Agent upon demand for all expenditures that the Warrant Agent may reasonably
incur in the execution of its duties hereunder.


 






    19


     


    

 


8.3.2 Further
Assurances. The Company agrees to perform, execute, acknowledge, and deliver or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged, and
delivered all such further and other acts, instruments, and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Warrant Agent for the carrying
out or performing of the provisions of this Agreement.


 


8.4 Liability
of Warrant Agent.


 


8.4.1 Reliance
on Company Statement. Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Warrant Agent shall deem it necessary or
desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such fact
or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved and established
by a statement signed by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, Secretary or Chairman of the
Board of the Company and delivered to the Warrant Agent. The Warrant Agent may rely upon such statement for any action taken or suffered
in good faith by it pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.


 


8.4.2 Indemnity.
The Warrant Agent shall be liable hereunder only for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud or bad faith. The Company agrees
to indemnify the Warrant Agent and save it harmless against any and all liabilities, including judgments, out-of-pocket costs and reasonable
outside counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by the Warrant Agent in the execution of this Agreement, except as a result of the
Warrant Agent’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, fraud or bad faith.


 


8.4.3 Exclusions.
The Warrant Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the validity of this Agreement or with respect to the validity or execution
of any Warrant (except its countersignature thereof). The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible for any breach by the Company of any
covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or in any Warrant. The Warrant Agent shall not be responsible to make any adjustments
required under the provisions of Section 4 hereof or responsible for the manner, method, or amount of any such adjustment or the
ascertaining of the existence of facts that would require any such adjustment; nor shall it by any act hereunder be deemed to make any
representation or warranty as to the authorization or reservation of any Class A Ordinary Shares to be issued pursuant to this Agreement
or any Warrant or as to whether any Class A Ordinary Shares shall, when issued, be valid and, solely with respect to the Class A Ordinary
Shares, fully paid and non-assessable.


 


8.5 Acceptance
of Agency. The Warrant Agent hereby accepts the agency established by this Agreement and agrees to perform the same upon the terms
and conditions herein set forth and among other things, shall account promptly to the Company with respect to Warrants exercised and concurrently
account for, and pay to the Company all monies received by the Warrant Agent for the purchase of Class A Ordinary Shares through the exercise
of the Warrants.


 


8.6 Waiver.
The Warrant Agent has no right of set-off or any other right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”)
in, or to any distribution of, the Trust Account (as defined in that certain Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of the date
hereof, by and between the Company, Opco and the Warrant Agent as trustee thereunder) and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement,
payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever. The Warrant Agent hereby waives any and all
Claims against the Trust Account and any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account.

this paragraph will not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which
the federal district courts of the United States of America are the sole and exclusive forum. Any person or entity purchasing or otherwise

9.3. If any action, the subject matter of which is within the scope the forum provisions above, is filed in a court other than a court
located within the State of New York or the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (a “foreign
action”) in the name of any warrant holder, such warrant holder shall be deemed to have consented to: (x) the personal jurisdiction

New York in connection with any action brought in any such court to enforce the forum provisions (an “enforcement action”),
and (y) having service of process made upon such warrant holder in any such enforcement action by service upon such warrant holder’s

be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. Signatures to this Agreement

shall not adversely affect the rights of the Registered Holders hereunder in any material respect or (iv) to make any amendments that
are necessary in the good faith determination of the Company’s board of directors (taking into account then existing market precedents)
to allow for the Warrants to be classified as equity in the Company’s financial statements. All other modifications or amendments,
including any modification or amendment to increase the Warrant Price or shorten the Exercise Period and any amendment to the terms of
only the Private Placement Warrants, shall require the vote or written consent of the Registered Holders of 50% of the then-outstanding
Public Warrants and, solely with respect to any amendment to the terms of the Private Placement Warrants or any provision of this Agreement
with respect to the Private Placement Warrants, 50% of the then-outstanding Private Placement Warrants. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Company may lower the Warrant Price or extend the duration of the Exercise Period pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 3.2,
respectively, or make any amendment necessary in the good faith determination of the Company’s board of directors (taking into account
then existing market precedents) to allow for the Warrants to be classified as equity in the Company’s financial statements, in

Rice Acquisition Corp. II

CUSIP
[                   ]


Warrant Certificate


 


This Warrant Certificate
certifies that [                ], or registered
assigns, is the registered holder of [                ]
warrant(s) (the “Warrants” and each, a “Warrant”) to purchase Class A ordinary
shares, $0.0001 par value (“Ordinary Shares”), of Rice Acquisition Corp. II, a Cayman Islands exempted company
(the “Company”). Each Warrant entitles the holder, upon exercise during the period set forth in the Warrant
Agreement referred to below, to receive from the Company that number of fully paid and nonassessable Ordinary Shares as set forth below,
at the exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) as determined pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, payable in lawful
money (or through “cashless exercise” as provided for in the Warrant Agreement) of the United States of America
upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate and payment of the Exercise Price at the office or agency of the Warrant Agent referred to
below, subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Warrant Agreement. Defined terms used in this Warrant Certificate but not
defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Warrant Agreement.


 


Each whole Warrant is initially
exercisable for one fully paid and non-assessable Ordinary Share. Fractional shares shall not be issued upon exercise of any Warrant.
If, upon the exercise of Warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in an Ordinary Share, the Company shall,
upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number the number of Ordinary Shares to be issued to the Warrant holder. The number of
Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events as set forth in
the Warrant Agreement.


 


The initial Exercise Price
per one Ordinary Share for any Warrant is equal to $11.50 per share. The Exercise Price is subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of
certain events as set forth in the Warrant Agreement.


 






     

     


    

 


Subject to the conditions
set forth in the Warrant Agreement, the Warrants may be exercised only during the Exercise Period and to the extent not exercised by the
end of such Exercise Period, such Warrants shall become void. The Warrants may be redeemed, subject to certain conditions, as set forth
in the Warrant Agreement.


 


Reference is hereby made to
the further provisions of this Warrant Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof and such further provisions shall for all purposes
have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.


 


This Warrant Certificate shall
not be valid unless countersigned by the Warrant Agent, as such term is used in the Warrant Agreement. This Warrant Certificate shall
be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

[Form of Warrant Certificate]


 


[Reverse]


 


The Warrants evidenced by
this Warrant Certificate are part of a duly authorized issue of Warrants entitling the holder on exercise to receive [                ]
Ordinary Shares and are issued or to be issued pursuant to a Warrant Agreement dated as of [●],
2021 (the “Warrant Agreement”), duly executed and delivered by the Company to Continental Stock Transfer &
Trust Company, a New York limited purpose trust company, as warrant agent (the “Warrant Agent”), which Warrant
Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference in and made a part of this instrument and is hereby referred to for a description of the
rights, limitation of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Warrant Agent, the Company and the holders (the words
“holders” or “holder” meaning the Registered Holders or Registered Holder, respectively)
of the Warrants. A copy of the Warrant Agreement may be obtained by the holder hereof upon written request to the Company. Defined terms
used in this Warrant Certificate but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Warrant Agreement.


 


Warrants may be exercised
at any time during the Exercise Period set forth in the Warrant Agreement. The holder of Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate
may exercise them by surrendering this Warrant Certificate, with the form of Election to Purchase set forth hereon properly completed
and executed, together with payment of the Exercise Price as specified in the Warrant Agreement (or through “cashless exercise”
as provided for in the Warrant Agreement) at the principal corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent. In the event that upon any exercise
of Warrants evidenced hereby the number of Warrants exercised shall be less than the total number of Warrants evidenced hereby, there
shall be issued to the holder hereof or his, her or its assignee, a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the number of Warrants not exercised.


 


Notwithstanding anything else
in this Warrant Certificate or the Warrant Agreement, no Warrant may be exercised unless at the time of exercise (i) a registration
statement covering the issuance of the Ordinary Shares to be issued upon exercise is effective under the Securities Act and (ii) a
prospectus thereunder relating to the Ordinary Shares is current, except through “cashless exercise” as provided for
in the Warrant Agreement.


 


The Warrant Agreement provides
that upon the occurrence of certain events the number of Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants set forth on the face
hereof may, subject to certain conditions, be adjusted. If, upon exercise of a Warrant, the holder thereof would be entitled to receive
a fractional interest in an Ordinary Share, the Company shall, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number of Ordinary Shares
to be issued to the holder of the Warrant.


 


Warrant Certificates, when
surrendered at the principal corporate trust office of the Warrant Agent by the Registered Holder thereof in person or by legal representative
or attorney duly authorized in writing, may be exchanged, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement,
but without payment of any service charge, for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor evidencing in the aggregate
a like number of Warrants.


 


Upon due presentation for
registration of transfer of this Warrant Certificate at the office of the Warrant Agent a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates
of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants shall be issued to the transferee(s) in exchange for this Warrant
Certificate, subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, without charge except for any tax or other governmental charge
imposed in connection therewith.


 


The Company and the Warrant
Agent may deem and treat the Registered Holder(s) hereof as the absolute owner(s) of this Warrant Certificate (notwithstanding any notation
of ownership or other writing hereon made by anyone), for the purpose of any exercise hereof, of any distribution to the holder(s) hereof,
and for all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Warrant Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. Neither the
Warrants nor this Warrant Certificate entitles any holder hereof to any rights of a shareholder of the Company.


 




     

     


    

 


Election to Purchase


 


(To Be Executed Upon Exercise of Warrant)


 


The undersigned hereby irrevocably
elects to exercise the right, represented by this Warrant Certificate, to receive [                ]
Ordinary Shares and herewith tenders payment for such Ordinary Shares to the order of Rice Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”)
in the amount of $[                ] in accordance with
the terms hereof. The undersigned requests that a certificate for such Ordinary Shares be registered in the name of [                ],
whose address is [                ] and that such Ordinary
Shares be delivered to [                ] whose address
is [                ]. If said [                ]
number of Ordinary Shares is less than all of the Ordinary Shares purchasable hereunder, the undersigned requests that a new Warrant Certificate
representing the remaining balance of such Ordinary Shares be registered in the name of [                ],
whose address is [                ] and that such Warrant
Certificate be delivered to [                ], whose
address is [                ].


 


In the event that the Warrant
has been called for redemption by the Company pursuant to Section 6.2 of the Warrant Agreement and a holder thereof elects
to exercise its Warrant pursuant to a Make-Whole Exercise, the number of Ordinary Shares that this Warrant is exercisable for shall be
determined in accordance with subsection 3.3.1(c) or Section 6.2 of the Warrant Agreement, as applicable.


 


In the event that the Warrant
is a Private Placement Warrant that is to be exercised on a “cashless” basis pursuant to subsection 3.3.1(c) of
the Warrant Agreement, the number of Ordinary Shares that this Warrant is exercisable for shall be determined in accordance with subsection [3.3.1(c)]
of the Warrant Agreement.


 


In the event that the Warrant
is to be exercised on a “cashless” basis pursuant to Section 7.4 of the Warrant Agreement, the number of Ordinary
Shares that this Warrant is exercisable for shall be determined in accordance with Section 7.4 of the Warrant Agreement.
