		Re:	Forward
Purchase Contract


 


Ladies and Gentlemen:


 


We are pleased to accept the offer Lion Point Capital, LP, on behalf
of Lion Point Master, LP (the “Subscriber” or “you”) has made to purchase an aggregate of
3,000,000 units (the “Units”) of Opes Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”),
each Unit comprising of one share of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”
or “Share”) and one warrant (“Warrant”), for an aggregate purchase price of $30,000,000.
The Units and the securities underlying the Units, collectively, are hereinafter referred to as the “Securities”.
Each Warrant is exercisable to purchase one Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per Share during the period commencing on the
later of (i) twelve (12) months from the date of the closing of the Company’s initial public offering of units, each comprising
of one share of Common Stock and one Warrant (the “IPO”), such IPO expected as of the date hereof to generate
gross proceeds to the Company in the amount of $100,000,000 (exclusive of the over-allotment option to be granted to the underwriters)
and (ii) thirty (30) days following the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination (the “Business
Combination”) and expiring on the fifth anniversary of the consummation of the Business Combination. The Warrants will
have substantially the same terms as the Warrants sold as part of the units in the IPO. The terms on which the Company is willing
to sell the Securities to the Subscriber, and the Company and the Subscriber’s agreements regarding such Securities, are
set forth in this agreement (this “Agreement”) and are as follows:


 


1. Purchase of the Securities. For the sum of $30,000,000
(the “Purchase Price”), the Company agrees to sell the Securities to the Subscriber, and the Subscriber hereby
agrees to purchase the Securities from the Company in a private placement, subject to the terms and subject to the conditions set
forth in this Agreement.


 




     


     


    

 


2. Transfer of Shares. On the Closing of the IPO, Axis
Public Ventures S. de R.L. de C.V. (the “Founder” or “Sponsor”) shall transfer to the Subscriber
an aggregate of 30% of the Shares it holds on such date (the “Founder Shares”), other than Shares included in
the purchase of private units pursuant to the Subscription Agreement (defined below) and any Shares included in the purchase of
units in the IPO, if any. Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that if the underwriters in the IPO do not exercise their over-allotment
option in full, Subscriber shall forfeit back to the Company a number of shares, pro rata with the Founder, so that the Founder
and Subscriber collectively own 20% of the Shares after giving effect to the IPO and excluding the purchase of Shares in the private
units pursuant to a simultaneous private placement that the Subscriber and the Sponsor will be participating in pursuant to a subscription
agreement (“Subscription Agreement”). The Founder Shares transferred to Subscriber are subject to the same lock-up
and transfer restrictions as the Founder Shares held by Founder. Additionally, if Subscriber does not fund the Purchase Price for
the Securities as provided for herein, Subscriber shall transfer back to the Founder a number of Founder Shares such that Subscriber
will own 16% of the Founder Shares upon consummation of the Business Combination. Furthermore, the Subscriber and the Founder each
acknowledges and agrees that if, in order to consummate any Business Combination, the holders of Founder Shares are required to
contribute back to the capital of the Company a portion of any such securities to be cancelled by the Company or transfer a portion
of any such securities to one or more third parties, the Subscriber will not be required to contribute back to the capital of the
Company or transfer to such third party or parties a proportionate number of any of its Founder Shares pro rata with the Sponsor,
without the express written consent of the Subscriber.


 


3. Representations, Warranties and Agreements.


  


3.1 Subscriber’s Representations, Warranties and Agreements.
To induce the Company to issue the Securities to the Subscriber and the Founder to transfer the Founder Shares to Subscriber, the
Subscriber hereby represents and warrants to the Company and Founder and agrees with the Company and Founder as follows:


 


3.1.1 No Government Recommendation or Approval. The Subscriber
understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or endorsement of the offering of the Securities
or the Founder Shares.


  


3.1.2 No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance
of this Agreement and the consummation by the Subscriber of the transactions contemplated hereby do not violate, conflict with
or constitute a default under (i) the formation and governing documents of the Subscriber, (ii) any agreement, indenture or instrument
to which the Subscriber is a party, (iii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which the Subscriber is subject, or (iv) any
agreement, order, judgment or decree to which the Subscriber is subject.


 


3.1.3 Organization and Authority. The Subscriber is an exempted
limited partnership organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the
Cayman Islands and possesses all requisite power and authority necessary to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
Upon execution and delivery by you, this Agreement is a legal, valid and binding agreement of Subscriber, enforceable against Subscriber
in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance
or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity (regardless
of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity).


  




     


     


    

 


3.1.4 Experience, Financial Capability and Suitability. Subscriber
is: (i) sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and benefits of the investment in the Securities and
Founder Shares and (ii) able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Securities and the Founder Shares for an indefinite
period of time because the Securities and Founder Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended
(“Securities Act”) and therefore cannot be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an
exemption from such registration is available. Subscriber is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the
Company and has the capacity to protect its own interests. Subscriber must bear the economic risk of this investment until the
Securities and Founder Shares are sold pursuant to: (i) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (ii) an
exemption from registration available with respect to such sale. Subscriber is able to bear the economic risks of an investment
in the Securities and Founder Shares and to afford a complete loss of Subscriber’s investment in the Securities and Founder
Shares.


 


3.1.5 Access to Information; Independent Investigation. Prior
to the execution of this Agreement, the Subscriber has had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from representatives
of the Company concerning an investment in the Company, as well as the finances, operations, business and prospects of the Company,
and the opportunity to obtain additional information to verify the accuracy of all information so obtained. In determining whether
to make this investment, Subscriber has relied solely on Subscriber’s own knowledge and understanding of the Company and
its business based upon Subscriber’s own due diligence investigation and the information furnished pursuant to this paragraph.
Subscriber understands that no person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representations which were not
furnished pursuant to this Section 3 and Subscriber has not relied on any other representations or information in making its investment
decision, whether written or oral, relating to the Company, its operations and/or its prospects.


 


3.1.6 Regulation D Offering. Subscriber represents that it
is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act and acknowledges
the sale contemplated hereby is being made in reliance on a private placement exemption to “accredited investors” within
the meaning of Section 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act or similar exemptions under federal or state law.


 


3.1.7 Investment Purposes. The Subscriber is purchasing the
Securities and acquiring the Founder Shares solely for investment purposes, for the account of Lion Point Master, LP and not with
a view towards the further distribution or dissemination thereof. The Subscriber did not decide to enter into this Agreement as
a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502 under the Securities Act.


 




     


     


    

 


3.1.8 Restrictions on Transfer; Shell Company. Subscriber
understands the Securities and Founder Shares are being offered in a transaction not involving a public offering within the meaning
of the Securities Act. Subscriber understands the Securities and Founder Shares will be “restricted securities” within
the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act and Subscriber understands that any certificates representing the Securities
and Founder Shares will contain a legend in respect of such restrictions. If in the future the Subscriber decides to offer, resell,
pledge or otherwise transfer the Securities or Founder Shares, such securities may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred
only pursuant to: (i) registration under the Securities Act, or (ii) an available exemption from registration. Subscriber agrees
that if any transfer of its Securities or Founder Shares or any interest therein is proposed to be made, as a condition precedent
to any such transfer, Subscriber may be required to deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company. Absent
registration or an exemption, the Subscriber agrees not to resell the Securities or Founder Shares. Subscriber further acknowledges
that because the Company is a shell company, Rule 144 may not be available to the Subscriber for the resale of the Securities or
Founder Shares until one (1) year following consummation of the Business Combination, despite technical compliance with the requirements
of Rule 144 and the release or waiver of any contractual transfer restrictions.


 


3.1.9 No Governmental Consents. No governmental, administrative
or other third party consents or approvals are required, necessary or appropriate on the part of Subscriber in connection with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

the Subscriber as follows:

execution and delivery by the Company of this Agreement, the Agreement will constitute a legal, valid and binding agreement of
the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and
subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law or in equity).

free and clear of all liens, claims and encumbrances of any kind, other than (a) transfer restrictions under federal and state
securities laws, and (b) liens, claims or encumbrances imposed due to the actions of the Subscriber. The Company will reserve sufficient
Shares to permit full exercise of the Warrants.

reservation for issuance) of the Securities, has been taken. This Agreement constitutes and, when issued, the Units and Warrants
will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, subject
to: (i) judicial principles limiting the availability of specific performance, injunctive relief, and other equitable remedies
and (ii) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect generally relating
to or affecting creditors’ rights.

Company on the date hereof, consists of 30,000,000 shares of Common Stock, 2,875,000 shares of which are issued and outstanding

7.5 Waivers and Consents. The terms and provisions of this
Agreement may be waived, or consent for the departure therefrom granted, only by written document executed by the party entitled
to the benefits of such terms or provisions. No such waiver or consent shall be deemed to be or shall constitute a waiver or consent
with respect to any other terms or provisions of this Agreement, whether or not similar. Each such waiver or consent shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which it was given, and shall not constitute a continuing waiver or consent.


 


7.6 Assignment. The rights and obligations under this Agreement
may not be assigned by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties; provided that Subscriber
may assign its rights and obligations to an affiliate without the prior consent of the other parties.


 


7.7 Benefit. All statements, representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall be binding on the parties hereto and shall inure to the benefit of the respective
successors and permitted assigns of each party hereto. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to create any rights or obligations

thereof, wholly unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.


 


7.10 No Waiver of Rights, Powers and Remedies. No failure
or delay by a party hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy under this Agreement, and no course of dealing between the

right, power or remedy under this Agreement by a party hereto, nor any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any such
right, power or remedy, shall preclude such party from any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right,
power or remedy hereunder. The election of any remedy by a party hereto shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such party
to pursue other available remedies. No notice to or demand on a party not expressly required under this Agreement shall entitle
the party receiving such notice or demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute
a waiver of the rights of the party giving such notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without such
notice or demand.


 




     


     


    

 


7.11 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations

contemplated hereby, shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and any investigations made by or on behalf of the parties.


 


7.12 No Broker or Finder. Each of the parties hereto represents
and warrants to the others that no broker, finder or other financial consultant has acted on its behalf in connection with this
Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in such a way as to create any liability on the other. Each of the parties hereto
agrees to indemnify and save the others harmless from any claim or demand for commission or other compensation by any broker, finder,
financial consultant or similar agent claiming to have been employed by or on behalf of such party and to bear the cost of legal
expenses incurred in defending against any such claim.


 


7.13 Headings and Captions. The headings and captions of
the various subdivisions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way modify or affect the meaning
or construction of any of the terms or provisions hereof.


 


7.14 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one
or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective
when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not
sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or any other form of electronic
delivery, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature
is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were an original thereof.


 


7.15 Construction. The words “include,”
“includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.”
Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be construed to include any other gender, and words in the singular form
will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The words “this Agreement,”
“herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and words
of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The parties
hereto intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have independent significance. If any party
hereto has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another
representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which
such party hereto has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party hereto is in breach of the first
representation, warranty, or covenant.


 


7.16 Mutual Drafting. This Agreement is the joint product
of the Subscriber, the Company and the Founder and each provision hereof has been subject to the mutual consultation, negotiation
and agreement of such parties and shall not be construed for or against any party hereto.


  


8. Indemnification. Each party shall indemnify the others
against any loss, cost or damages (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) incurred as a result of such party’s

9. Term. The Subscriber’s obligation to acquire the
Securities hereunder, and the Company’s obligation to sell the Securities hereunder, shall be in effect until the earlier
of (i) the consummation of the Business Combination within the time frame permitted by the Company’s amended and restated
certificate of incorporation (the “Charter”), which, as of the date hereof, is expected to be 24 months from
the consummation of the IPO, including any extensions beyond such term effected pursuant to the terms of the Charter, and (ii)
the liquidation of the Company in the event that the Company is unable to consummate the Business Combination within the time frame
permitted by the Charter (including any extensions).


 


10. Disclosure. The Subscriber hereby acknowledges that (i)
the terms of this Agreement will be disclosed in the Registration Statement, (ii) this Agreement will be filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and (iii) the Company will disclose the terms of this Agreement
to potential IPO investors and to potential Business Combination targets.


 


11. Waiver of Claims Against Trust. The Subscriber hereby
acknowledges that it is aware that the Company will establish a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the
benefit of its public stockholders upon the closing of the IPO. The Subscriber, for itself and its affiliates, hereby agrees that
it has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, or any other asset of the
Company as a result of any liquidation of the Company, except for redemption and liquidation rights, if any, the Subscriber may
have in respect of any Shares issued as part of the units sold in the IPO (“Public Shares”) held by the Subscriber.
The Subscriber hereby agrees that it shall have no right of set-off or any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”)
to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account, and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account
that it may have now or in the future, except for redemption and liquidation rights, if any, the Subscriber may have in respect
of any Public Shares held by the Subscriber. In the event the Subscriber has any Claim against the Company under this Agreement,
the Subscriber shall pursue such Claim solely against the Company and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the
property or any monies in the Trust Account, except for redemption and liquidation rights, if any, the Subscriber may have in respect
of any Public Shares held by the Subscriber.
