Exhibit 10.4


 


INDEMNIFICATION
AGREEMENT


 


THIS
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of [     ], 2022, between Pono Capital Three,
Inc., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”), and ____________________________ (“Indemnitee”).


 


WITNESSETH
THAT:


 


WHEREAS,
highly competent persons have become more reluctant to serve corporations as directors or in other capacities unless they are provided
with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising
out of their service to and activities on behalf of the corporation;


 


WHEREAS,
the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified
individuals, the Company will attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons serving
the Company and its subsidiaries from certain liabilities. Although the furnishing of such insurance has been a customary and widespread
practice among United States-based corporations and other business enterprises, the Company believes that, given current market conditions
and trends, such insurance may be available to it in the future only at higher premiums and with more exclusions. At the same time, directors,
officers, and other persons in service to corporations or business enterprises are being increasingly subjected to expensive and time-consuming
litigation relating to, among other things, matters that traditionally would have been brought only against the Company or business enterprise
itself. The Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association the Company as may be further amended and/or restated from time
to time (the “Memorandum and Articles”), contemplate indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company.
Indemnitee may also be entitled to indemnification pursuant to applicable Cayman Islands law. The indemnification provisions set forth
in the Memorandum and Articles are not exclusive, and thereby contemplate that contracts may be entered into between the Company and
members of the board of directors, officers and other persons with respect to indemnification;


 


WHEREAS,
the uncertainties relating to such insurance and to indemnification have increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons;


 


WHEREAS,
the Board has determined that the increased difficulty in attracting and retaining such persons is detrimental to the best interests
of the Company’s shareholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of
such protection in the future;


 


WHEREAS,
it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, and to advance expenses on behalf
of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company free from
undue concern that they will not be so indemnified;


 


WHEREAS,
this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Bylaws and Certificate of Incorporation of the Company and any resolutions
adopted pursuant thereto, and shall not be deemed a substitute therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder;


 


WHEREAS,
Indemnitee does not regard the protection available under the Company’s Bylaws and Certificate of Incorporation and insurance as
adequate in the present circumstances, and may not be willing to serve as an officer or director without adequate protection, and the
Company desires Indemnitee to serve in such capacity. Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional service
for or on behalf of the Company on the condition that he be so indemnified; and

NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of Indemnitee’s agreement to serve as a director from and after the date hereof, the parties hereto
agree as follows:


 


1.
Indemnity of Indemnitee. The Company hereby agrees to hold harmless and indemnify Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by
law, as such may be amended from time to time. In furtherance of the foregoing indemnification, and without limiting the generality thereof:


 


(a)
Proceedings Other Than Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification
provided in this Section l(a) if, by reason of his Corporate Status (as hereinafter defined), the Indemnitee is, or is threatened
to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding (as hereinafter defined) other than a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company.
Pursuant to this Section 1(a), Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses (as hereinafter defined), judgments, penalties,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him, or on his behalf, in connection with such Proceeding or
any claim, issue or matter therein, if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and with respect to any criminal Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe
the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.


 


(b)
Proceedings by or in the Right of the Company. Indemnitee shall be entitled to the rights of indemnification provided in this
Section 1(b) if, by reason of his Corporate Status, the Indemnitee is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant
in any Proceeding brought by or in the right of the Company. Pursuant to this Section 1(b), Indemnitee shall be indemnified against
all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee, or on the Indemnitee’s behalf, in connection with such Proceeding
if the Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of the Company; provided, however, if applicable law so provides, no indemnification against such Expenses shall be made in respect of
any claim, issue or matter in such Proceeding as to which Indemnitee shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and
to the extent that any court in which the Proceeding was brought or the Courts of the Cayman Islands shall determine that such indemnification
may be made.


 


(c)
Indemnification for Expenses of a Party Who is Wholly or Partly Successful. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement,
to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a party to and is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any
Proceeding, he shall be indemnified to the maximum extent permitted by law, as such may be amended from time to time, against all Expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding
but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the
Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection with each
successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. For purposes of this Section and without limitation, the termination of any claim, issue
or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful result as to such claim, issue
or matter.


 


2.
Additional Indemnity. In addition to, and without regard to any limitations on, the indemnification provided for in Section
1 of this Agreement, the Company shall and hereby does indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee against all Expenses, judgments, penalties,
fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf if, by reason of his Corporate Status,
he is, or is threatened to be made, a party to or participant in any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company),
including, without limitation, all liability arising out of the negligence or active or passive wrongdoing of Indemnitee. The only limitation
that shall exist upon the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Agreement shall be that the Company shall not be obligated to
make any payment to Indemnitee that is finally determined (under the procedures, and subject to the presumptions, set forth in Sections
6 and 7 hereof) to be unlawful.


 


3.
Contribution.


 


(a)
Whether or not the indemnification provided in Sections 1 and 2 hereof is available, in respect of any threatened, pending
or completed action, suit or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action,
suit or proceeding), the Company shall pay, in the first instance, the entire amount of any judgment or settlement of such action, suit
or proceeding without requiring Indemnitee to contribute to such payment and the Company hereby waives and relinquishes any right of
contribution it may have against Indemnitee. The Company shall not enter into any settlement of any action, suit or proceeding in which
the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding) unless such settlement provides
for a full and final release of all claims asserted against Indemnitee.


 






    	2



    	 



    

 


(b)
Without diminishing or impairing the obligations of the Company set forth in the preceding subparagraph, if, for any reason, Indemnitee
shall elect or be required to pay all or any portion of any judgment or settlement in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit
or proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), the
Company shall contribute to the amount of Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred
and paid or payable by Indemnitee in proportion to the relative benefits received by the Company and all officers, directors or employees
of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding),
on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, from the transaction from which such action, suit or proceeding arose; provided,
however, that the proportion determined on the basis of relative benefit may, to the extent necessary to conform to law, be further adjusted
by reference to the relative fault of the Company and all officers, directors or employees of the Company other than Indemnitee who are
jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding), on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other
hand, in connection with the events that resulted in such expenses, judgments, fines or settlement amounts, as well as any other equitable
considerations which the Law may require to be considered. The relative fault of the Company and all officers, directors or employees
of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who are jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such action, suit or proceeding),
on the one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the degree to which their
actions were motivated by intent to gain personal profit or advantage, the degree to which their liability is primary or secondary and
the degree to which their conduct is active or passive.


 


(c)
The Company hereby agrees to fully indemnify and hold Indemnitee harmless from any claims of contribution which may be brought by officers,
directors or employees of the Company, other than Indemnitee, who may be jointly liable with Indemnitee.


 


(d)
To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee
for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether
for judgments, fines, penalties, excise taxes, amounts paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses, in connection with any claim
relating to an indemnifiable event under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances
of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Company and Indemnitee as a result of the event(s) and/or
transaction(s) giving cause to such Proceeding; and/or (ii) the relative fault of the Company (and its directors, officers, employees
and agents) and Indemnitee in connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s).


 


4.
Indemnification for Expenses of a Witness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the extent that Indemnitee
is, by reason of his Corporate Status, a witness, or is made (or asked to) respond to discovery requests, in any Proceeding to which
Indemnitee is not a party, he shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or on his behalf in connection
therewith.


 


5.
Advancement of Expenses. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall advance all Expenses incurred
by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status within thirty (30) days
after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from time to time,
whether prior to or after final disposition of such Proceeding. Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred
by Indemnitee and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by a written undertaking by or on behalf of Indemnitee to repay any Expenses
advanced if it shall ultimately be determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such Expenses. Any advances and
undertakings to repay pursuant to this Section 5 shall be unsecured and interest free.


 


6.
Procedures and Presumptions for Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification. It is the intent of this Agreement to secure
for Indemnitee rights of indemnity that are as favorable as may be permitted under the applicable law and the Memorandum and Articles.
Accordingly, the parties agree that the following procedures and presumptions shall apply in the event of any question as to whether
Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement:


 


(a)
To obtain indemnification under this Agreement, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith
such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what
extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the Company shall, promptly upon receipt of such a request for indemnification,
advise the Board of Directors in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any failure of
Indemnitee to provide such a request to the Company, or to provide such a request in a timely fashion, shall not relieve the Company
of any liability that it may have to Indemnitee unless, and to the extent that, such failure actually and materially prejudices the interests
of the Company.

(b)
Upon written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to the first sentence of Section 6(a) hereof, a determination
with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in the specific case by one of the following four methods, which
shall be at the election of the board: (1) by a majority vote of the disinterested directors, even though less than a quorum, (2) by
a committee of disinterested directors designated by a majority vote of the disinterested directors, even though less than a quorum,
(3) if there are no disinterested directors or if the disinterested directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion
to the Board of Directors, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Indemnitee, or (4) if so directed by the Board of Directors, by
the shareholders of the Company. For purposes hereof, disinterested directors are those members of the board of directors of the Company
who are not parties to the action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification is sought by Indemnitee.


 


(c)
If the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof, the
Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 6(c). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board
of Directors. Indemnitee may, within 10 days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company a written
objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so
selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 13 of this Agreement,
and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person
so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If a written objection is made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel selected may
not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court has determined that such objection is without
merit. If, within 20 days after submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 6(a) hereof,
no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Courts of the
Cayman Islands or other court of competent jurisdiction for resolution of any objection which shall have been made by the Indemnitee
to the Company’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the
court or by such other person as the court shall designate, and the person with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the
person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 6(b) hereof. The Company shall pay any and all reasonable fees
and expenses of Independent Counsel incurred by such Independent Counsel in connection with acting pursuant to Section 6(b) hereof,
and the Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incident to the procedures of this Section 6(c), regardless of the
manner in which such Independent Counsel was selected or appointed.


 


(d)
In making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such determination
shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall
have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence. Neither the failure of the Company (including
by its directors or independent legal counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this
Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual
determination by the Company (including by its directors or independent legal counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard
of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.


 


(e)
Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of account of the
Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of the Enterprise (as hereinafter
defined) in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise or on information or records given or reports
made to the Enterprise by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care
by the Enterprise. In addition, the knowledge and/or actions, or failure to act, of any director, officer, agent or employee of the Enterprise
shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement. Whether or not the
foregoing provisions of this Section 6(e) are satisfied, it shall in any event be presumed that Indemnitee has at all times acted
in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. Anyone seeking to
overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.


 






    	4



    	 



    

 


(f)
If the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 6 to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification
shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor, the requisite determination
of entitlement to indemnification shall be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such indemnification absent (i)
a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement not
materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable
law; provided, however, that such 60-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional thirty (30) days,
if the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith requires such
additional time to obtain or evaluate documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, that the foregoing provisions
of this Section 6(g) shall not apply if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by the shareholders
pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement and if (A) within fifteen (15) days after receipt by the Company of the request for
such determination, the Board of Directors or the Disinterested Directors, if appropriate, resolve to submit such determination to the
shareholders for their consideration at an annual meeting thereof to be held within seventy-five (75) days after such receipt and such
determination is made thereat, or (B) a special meeting of shareholders is called within fifteen (15) days after such receipt for the
purpose of making such determination, such meeting is held for such purpose within sixty (60) days after having been so called and such
determination is made thereat.


 


(g)
Indemnitee shall cooperate with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement
to indemnification, including providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information
which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary
to such determination. Any Independent Counsel, member of the Board of Directors or shareholder of the Company shall act reasonably and
in good faith in making a determination regarding the Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement. Any costs
or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons or
entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement
to indemnification) and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.


 


(h)
The Company acknowledges that a settlement or other disposition short of final judgment may be successful if it permits a party to avoid
expense, delay, distraction, disruption and uncertainty. In the event that any action, claim or proceeding to which Indemnitee is a party
is resolved in any manner other than by adverse judgment against Indemnitee (including, without limitation, settlement of such action,
claim or proceeding with or without payment of money or other consideration) it shall be presumed that Indemnitee has been successful
on the merits or otherwise in such action, suit or proceeding. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall have the burden of proof
and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.


 


(i)
The termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea
of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect
the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee
had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.


 


7.
Remedies of Indemnitee.


 


(a)
In the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification
under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 5 of this Agreement, (iii) no determination
of entitlement to indemnification is made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement within 90 days after receipt by the Company
of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to this Agreement within ten (10) days after
receipt by the Company of a written request therefor or (v) payment of indemnification is not made within ten (10) days after a determination
has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or such determination is deemed to have been made pursuant to Section
6 of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication in an appropriate court of the Cayman Islands, or in any other
court of competent jurisdiction, of Indemnitee’s entitlement to such indemnification. Indemnitee shall commence such proceeding
seeking an adjudication within 180 days following the date on which Indemnitee first has the right to commence such proceeding pursuant
to this Section 7(a). The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication.


 






    	5



    	 



    

 


(b)
In the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled
to indemnification, any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo
trial on the merits, and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of the adverse determination under Section 6(b).


 


(c)
If a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 6(b) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification,
the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7, absent (i) a
misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s misstatement not
materially misleading in connection with the application for indemnification, or (ii) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable
law.


 


(d)
In the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Section 7, seeks a judicial adjudication of his rights under, or to recover damages
for breach of, this Agreement, or to recover under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by
the Company, the Company shall pay on his behalf, in advance, any and all expenses (of the types described in the definition of Expenses
in Section 13 of this Agreement) actually and reasonably incurred by him in such judicial adjudication, regardless of whether
Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement of expenses or insurance recovery.


 


(e)
The Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section 7 that the procedures
and presumptions of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court that the Company is bound
by all the provisions of this Agreement. The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against any and all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee,
shall (within ten (10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefore) advance, to the extent not prohibited by law,
such expenses to Indemnitee, which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any action brought by Indemnitee for indemnification
or advance of Expenses from the Company under this Agreement or under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies
maintained by the Company, regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, advancement
of Expenses or insurance recovery, as the case may be.


 


(f)
Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no determination as to entitlement to indemnification under this Agreement
shall be required to be made prior to the final disposition of the Proceeding.


 


8.
Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Primacy of Indemnification; Subrogation.


 


(a)
The rights of indemnification as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Indemnitee may
at any time be entitled under applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation, the Bylaws, any agreement, a vote of shareholders, a
resolution of directors or otherwise, of the Company. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof
shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in
his Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in the DGCL, whether by statute or judicial
decision, permits greater indemnification than would be afforded currently under the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and this Agreement,
it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change.
No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall
be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.
The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment
of any other right or remedy.


 


(b)
To the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees,
or agents or fiduciaries of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other
enterprise that such person serves at the request of the Company, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance
with its or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary under
such policy or policies. If, at the time of the receipt of a notice of a claim pursuant to the terms hereof, the Company has director
and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the insurers
in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable
action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such proceeding in accordance with
the terms of such policies.


 






    	6



    	 



    

 


(c)
In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights
of recovery of Indemnitee (other than against the Fund Indemnitors), who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary
to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.


 


(d)
The Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the extent
that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.


 


(e)
The Company’s obligation to indemnify or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Company
as a director, officer, employee or agent of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other
enterprise shall be reduced by any amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification or advancement of expenses from such other
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise.


 


9.
Exception to Right of Indemnification. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated under
this Agreement to make any indemnity in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee:


 


(a)
for which payment has actually been made to or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except
with respect to any excess beyond the amount paid under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision; or


 


(b)
for an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of the Company within
the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or similar provisions of state statutory law
or common law; or


 


(c)
in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any
Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) the Board
of Directors of the Company authorized the Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its initiation or (ii) the Company provides
the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law.


 


10.
Duration of Agreement. All agreements and obligations of the Company contained herein shall continue during the period Indemnitee
is an officer or director of the Company (or is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent
of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise) and shall continue for five (5) years thereafter or, if
longer, so long as Indemnitee shall be subject to any Proceeding (or any proceeding commenced under Section 7 hereof) by reason
of his Corporate Status, whether or not he is acting or serving in any such capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred
for which indemnification can be provided under this Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and
be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase, merger,
consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company), assigns, spouses, heirs, executors
and personal and legal representatives.


 


11.
Security. To the extent requested by Indemnitee and approved by the Board of Directors of the Company, the Company may at any
time and from time to time provide security to Indemnitee for the Company’s obligations hereunder through an irrevocable bank line
of credit, funded trust or other collateral. Any such security, once provided to Indemnitee, may not be revoked or released without the
prior written consent of the Indemnitee.


 


12.
Enforcement.


 


(a)
The Company expressly confirms and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumes the obligations imposed on it hereby in
order to induce Indemnitee to serve as an officer or director of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying
upon this Agreement in serving as an officer or director of the Company.

“Enterprise” shall mean the Company and any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit
plan or other enterprise that Indemnitee is or was serving at the express written request of the Company as a director, officer, employee,
agent or fiduciary.


 


(d)
“Expenses” shall include all reasonable attorneys’ fees, retainers, court costs, transcript costs, fees of experts,
witness fees, travel expenses, duplicating costs, printing and binding costs, telephone charges, postage, delivery service fees and all
other disbursements or expenses of the types customarily incurred in connection with prosecuting, defending, preparing to prosecute or
defend, investigating, participating, or being or preparing to be a witness in a Proceeding, or responding to, or objecting to, a request
to provide discovery in any Proceeding. Expenses also shall include Expenses incurred in connection with any appeal resulting from any
Proceeding and any federal, state, local or foreign taxes imposed on the Indemnitee as a result of the actual or deemed receipt of any
payments under this Agreement, including without limitation the premium, security for, and other costs relating to any cost bond, supersede
as bond, or other appeal bond or its equivalent. Expenses, however, shall not include amounts paid in settlement by Indemnitee or the
amount of judgments or fines against Indemnitee.


 


(e)
“Independent Counsel” means a law firm, or a member of a law firm, that is experienced in matters of corporation law
and neither presently is, nor in the past five years has been, retained to represent: (i) the Company or Indemnitee in any matter material
to either such party (other than with respect to matters concerning Indemnitee under this Agreement, or of other indemnitees under similar
indemnification agreements), or (ii) any other party to the Proceeding giving rise to a claim for indemnification hereunder. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the term “Independent Counsel” shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional
conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing either the Company or Indemnitee in an action to determine
Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement. The Company agrees to pay the reasonable fees of the Independent Counsel referred to
above and to fully indemnify such counsel against any and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to
this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto.


 


(f)
“Proceeding” includes any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, arbitration, alternate dispute resolution
mechanism, investigation, inquiry, administrative hearing or any other actual, threatened or completed proceeding, whether brought by
or in the right of the Company or otherwise and whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, in which Indemnitee was, is
or will be involved as a party or otherwise, by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was an officer or director of the Company, by
reason of any action taken by him or of any inaction on his part while acting as an officer or director of the Company, or by reason
of the fact that he is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of another corporation,
partnership, joint venture, trust or other Enterprise; in each case whether or not he is acting or serving in any such capacity at the
time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification can be provided under this Agreement; including one pending on or
before the date of this Agreement, but excluding one initiated by an Indemnitee pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement to enforce
his rights under this Agreement.


 


14.
Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision hereof shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability
of any other provision. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this Agreement is intended to confer upon Indemnitee indemnification
rights to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws. In the event any provision hereof conflicts with any applicable law, such
provision shall be deemed modified, consistent with the aforementioned intent, to the extent necessary to resolve such conflict.

15.
Modification and Waiver. No supplement, modification, termination or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed
in writing by both of the parties hereto. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a
waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.


 


16.
Notice by Indemnitee. Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Company in writing upon being served with or otherwise receiving
any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may
be subject to indemnification covered hereunder. The failure to so notify the Company shall not relieve the Company of any obligation
which it may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement or otherwise unless and only to the extent that such failure or delay materially
prejudices the Company.


 


17.
Notices. All notices and other communications given or made pursuant to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed
effectively given: (a) upon personal delivery to the party to be notified, (b) when sent by confirmed electronic mail or facsimile if

construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of the Cayman Islands, without regard to its conflict of laws rules.
The Company and Indemnitee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agree that any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection
with this Agreement shall be brought only in the courts of the Cayman Islands (the “Cayman Court”), and not in any
other state or federal court in the United States of America or any court in any other country, (ii) consent to submit to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the Cayman Court for purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, (iii)
