SHARE
ESCROW AGREEMENT


 


SHARE
ESCROW AGREEMENT, dated as of [_______], 2017 (this “Agreement”), by and among BISON CAPITAL ACQUISITION CORP.,
a British Virgin Islands Company (the “Company”), BISON CAPITAL HOLDING COMPANY LIMITED (“Bison
Capital”) and JAMES
JIAYUAN TONG (collectively with Bison Capital, the “Initial Shareholders”) and CONTINENTAL STOCK TRANSFER &
TRUST COMPANY, a New York corporation (the “Escrow Agent”).


 


WHEREAS,
the Company has entered into an Underwriting Agreement, dated as of [_______], 2017 (the “Underwriting Agreement”),
with EarlyBirdCapital, Inc. (the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which, among other matters, the Underwriter has
agreed to purchase 5,000,000 units (the “Units”) of the Company, plus an additional 750,000 Units if the Underwriter
exercises its over-allotment option in full. Each Unit consists of one ordinary share of the Company, no par value per share (an
“Ordinary Share”), one right to receive one-tenth of one Ordinary Share and one-half of one warrant (a “Warrant”),
each whole Warrant to purchase one Ordinary Share at $11.50 per whole share upon the Company’s initial business combination
(as described in the Registration Statement hereinafter a “Business Combination”), all as more fully described
in the Company’s final Prospectus, dated [_______], 2017 (the “Prospectus”), comprising part of the Company’s
registration statement, as amended, on Form S-1 (File No. 333-[●]) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Registration
Statement”), declared effective on [________], 2017 (the “Effective Date”).


 


WHEREAS,
the Initial Shareholders have agreed as a condition of the sale of the Units to deposit their Ordinary Shares of the Company,
as set forth opposite their respective names in Exhibit A attached hereto (collectively the “Escrow Shares”),
in escrow as hereinafter provided.


 


WHEREAS,
the Company and the Initial Shareholders desire that the Escrow Agent accept the Escrow Shares, in escrow, to be held and disbursed
as hereinafter provided.


 


IT
IS AGREED:


 


1.           Appointment
of Escrow Agent. The Company and the Initial Shareholders hereby appoint the Escrow Agent to act in accordance with and subject
to the terms of this Agreement and the Escrow Agent hereby accepts such appointment and agrees to act in accordance with and subject
to such terms.


 


2.           Deposit
of Escrow Shares. On the Effective Date, certificates representing each Initial Shareholder’s respective Escrow Shares
(and any applicable share power) shall be placed in escrow, to be held and disbursed subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. Each Initial Shareholder acknowledges that the certificate representing such Initial Shareholder’s Escrow Shares
will be legended to reflect the deposit of such Escrow Shares under this Agreement.


 


3.           Disbursement
of the Escrow Shares.


 


3.1.         The Escrow Agent shall hold the Escrow Shares during the period (the “Escrow Period”) commencing on the date
hereof and (i) for 50% of the Escrow Shares, ending on the earlier of (x) one year after the date of the consummation of the Company’s
initial Business Combination and (y) the date on which the closing sale price of the Company’s Ordinary Shares equals or
exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading
days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the Business Combination and (ii) for the remaining 50% of the Escrow Shares,
ending one year after the date of the consummation of the Business Combination; provided, however, that if, subsequent to the
Company’s consummation of the Business Combination, the Company (or the surviving entity) subsequently consummates a liquidation,
merger, share exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the shareholders of such entity having the right to
exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash, securities or other property, then the Escrow Agent will, upon receipt of a notice executed
by the Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer or other authorized officer of the Company, in form reasonably acceptable
to the Escrow Agent, certifying that such transaction is then being consummated, release the Escrow Shares then held by it to
the Initial Shareholders. The Company shall promptly provide notice of the consummation of the Business Combination to the Escrow
Agent. Upon completion of the Escrow Period, the Escrow Agent shall disburse such amount of each Initial Shareholder’s Escrow
Shares (and any applicable share power) to such Initial Shareholder; provided, however, that if the Escrow Agent is notified by
the Company pursuant to Section 6.7 hereof that the Company is being liquidated at any time during the Escrow Period, then the
Escrow Agent shall promptly destroy the certificates representing the Escrow Shares. The Escrow Agent shall have no further duties
hereunder after the disbursement or destruction of the Escrow Shares in accordance with this Section 3.


 






     

     


    

 


3.2.         Notwithstanding Section 3.1, if the Underwriter does not exercise its over-allotment option to purchase an additional 750,000
Units of the Company in full within 30 days of the date of the Prospectus (as described in the Underwriting Agreement), the Initial
Shareholders agree that the Escrow Agent shall return to the Company for cancellation, at no cost, an aggregate number of Escrow
Shares held by them respectively determined by multiplying (a) 139,500 for Bison Capital or 48,000 for James Jiayuan Tong, as
applicable, by (b) a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is 750,000 minus the number of Ordinary Shares purchased by the Underwriters
relating to the exercise of their over-allotment option, and (ii) the denominator of which is 750,000. The Company shall promptly
provide notice to the Escrow Agent of the expiration or termination of the Underwriter’s over-allotment option and the number
of Units, if any, purchased by the Underwriter in connection with its exercise thereof.


 


4.           Rights
of Initial Shareholders in Escrow Shares.


 


4.1.         Voting Rights as a Shareholder. Subject to the terms of the Insider Letter described in Section 4.4 hereof and except as
herein provided, the Initial Shareholders shall retain all of their rights as shareholders of the Company during the Escrow Period,
including, without limitation, the right to vote such shares.


 


4.2.         Dividends and Other Distributions in Respect of the Escrow Shares. During the Escrow Period, all dividends payable in cash
with respect to the Escrow Shares shall be paid to the Initial Shareholders, but all dividends payable in shares or other non-cash
property (“Non-Cash Dividends”) shall be delivered to the Escrow Agent to hold in accordance with the terms
hereof. As used herein, the term “Escrow Shares” shall be deemed to include the Non-Cash Dividends distributed thereon,
if any.


 


4.3.         Restrictions on Transfer. During the Escrow Period, the only permitted transfers of the Escrow Shares will be (i) to any
persons (including their affiliates and shareholders) participating in the private placement of the private units, officers, directors,
shareholders, employees, members or affiliates of Bison Capital, (ii) amongst the Initial Shareholders or to the Company’s
officers, directors and employees, (iii) if the Initial Shareholder is an entity, as a distribution to partners, members or shareholders
of the Initial Shareholder upon the liquidation and dissolution of the Initial Shareholder, (iv) by bona fide gift to a member
of the Initial Shareholder’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is the Initial Shareholder or a member
of the Initial Shareholder’s immediate family for estate planning purposes, (v) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution
upon death of the Initial Shareholder, (vi) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, (vii) by certain pledges to secure
obligations incurred in connection with purchases of the Company’s securities, (viii) by private sales at prices no greater
than the price at which the Escrow Shares were originally purchased, or (ix) to the Company for cancellation as set forth in Section
3.2 hereof or in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination, in each case, except for clause (ix) or with the
Company’s prior consent, on the condition that such transfers may be implemented only upon the respective transferee’s
written agreement to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement and of the Insider Letter (as defined below) signed
by the Initial Shareholder transferring the Escrow Shares.


 


4.4.         Insider Letters. The Initial Shareholders have collectively executed a letter agreement with EBC and the Company, dated
as indicated on Exhibit A hereto, and the form of which is filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement (the “Insider
Letter”), respecting the rights and obligations of such Initial Shareholder in certain events, including but not limited
to the liquidation of the Company.

5.           Concerning
the Escrow Agent.


 


5.1.         Good Faith Reliance. The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted by it in good faith and in the
exercise of its own best judgment, and may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand,
certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Escrow Agent), statement, instrument, report or other
paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth
and acceptability of any information therein contained) which is believed by the Escrow Agent to be genuine and to be signed or
presented by the proper person or persons. The Escrow Agent shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification,
termination or rescission of this Agreement unless evidenced by a writing delivered to the Escrow Agent signed by the proper party
or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Escrow Agent are affected, unless it shall have given its prior written consent
thereto.


 


5.2.         Indemnification. The Escrow Agent shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from and against any expenses,
including reasonable counsel fees, or loss suffered by the Escrow Agent in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding
involving any claim which in any way arises out of this Agreement, the services of the Escrow Agent hereunder, or the Escrow Shares
held by it hereunder, other than expenses or losses arising from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
Escrow Agent. Promptly after the receipt by the Escrow Agent of notice of any demand or claim or the commencement of any action,
suit or proceeding, the Escrow Agent shall notify the other parties hereto in writing. In the event of the receipt of such notice,
the Escrow Agent, in its sole discretion, may commence an action in the nature of interpleader in an appropriate court to determine
ownership or disposition of the Escrow Shares or it may deposit the Escrow Shares with the clerk of any appropriate court or it
may retain the Escrow Shares pending receipt of a final, non-appealable order of a court having jurisdiction over all of the parties
hereto directing to whom and under what circumstances the Escrow Shares are to be disbursed and delivered. The provisions of this
Section 5.2 shall survive in the event the Escrow Agent resigns or is discharged pursuant to Sections 5.5 or 5.6 below.


 


5.3.         Compensation. The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to reasonable compensation from the Company for all services rendered
by it hereunder. The Escrow Agent shall also be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for all expenses paid or incurred by
it in the administration of its duties hereunder including, but not limited to, all counsel, advisors’ and agents’
fees and disbursements and all taxes or other governmental charges.


 


5.4.         Further Assurances. From time to time on and after the date hereof, the Company and the Initial Shareholders shall deliver
or cause to be delivered to the Escrow Agent such further documents and instruments and shall do or cause to be done such further
acts as the Escrow Agent shall reasonably request to carry out more effectively the provisions and purposes of this Agreement,
to evidence compliance herewith or to assure itself that it is protected in acting hereunder.


 


5.5.         Resignation. The Escrow Agent may resign at any time and be discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder by its
giving the other parties hereto written notice and such resignation shall become effective as hereinafter provided. Such resignation
shall become effective at such time that the Escrow Agent shall turn over to a successor escrow agent appointed by the Company,
the Escrow Shares held hereunder. If no new escrow agent is so appointed within the 60 day period following the giving of such
notice of resignation, the Escrow Agent may deposit the Escrow Shares with any court it reasonably deems appropriate.


 


5.6.         Discharge of Escrow Agent. The Escrow Agent shall resign and be discharged from its duties as escrow agent hereunder if
so requested in writing at any time by the other parties hereto, jointly, provided, however, that such resignation shall become
effective only upon acceptance of appointment by a successor escrow agent as provided in Section 5.5.


 


5.7.         Liability. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Escrow Agent shall not be relieved from liability hereunder
for its own bad faith, gross negligence or its own willful misconduct.


 


5.8.         Waiver. The Escrow Agent hereby waives any 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 and the Escrow 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.
