 Re: Initial Public Offering

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
 This letter (the
“Letter Agreement”) is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered into by and between USHG Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), and Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Piper Sandler & Co, as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the several underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (the
“Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “IPO”) of the Company’s units (the “Units”), each unit comprised of one share of the
Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and one-third of one redeemable warrant, each whole warrant exercisable for one share of
Common Stock (each, a “Warrant”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 10 hereof. 
 In
order to induce the Company and the Underwriters to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the IPO, and in recognition of the benefit that such IPO will confer upon the undersigned as a stockholder of the Company, and for other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees with the Company as follows: 

1. If the Company solicits approval of its stockholders of a Business Combination, the undersigned will vote all of the Founder Shares and
shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by it, whether acquired before, in or after the IPO, in favor of such Business Combination. 
 2.
In the event that the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Company’s second amended and restated certificate of incorporation, as the same may be further amended from time to time (the
“Charter”), the undersigned will, as promptly as possible, take all necessary actions to cause the Company to (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible,
but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem the IPO Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the













 
funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of
then-outstanding IPO Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible
following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide
for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. The undersigned hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any distribution of the Trust Account and any remaining net assets of the Company as
a result of such liquidation with respect to the Founder Shares owned by the undersigned. However, if the undersigned has acquired IPO Shares in or after the IPO, it will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect
to such IPO Shares in the event that the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Charter. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that there will be no distribution from the Trust Account with respect
to any Warrants, all rights of which will terminate on the Company’s liquidation. 
 3. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that
prior to entering into a definitive agreement for a Business Combination with a target business that is affiliated with the undersigned, Union Square Hospitality Group, LLC or any Insiders of the Company or their affiliates, the Company must obtain
an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or an independent accounting firm that such Business Combination is fair to the Company from a financial point of view. 

4. Neither the undersigned nor any affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive and will not accept any compensation or other cash
payment from the Company prior to, or for services rendered in order to effectuate, the completion of the Business Combination; provided that the Company shall be allowed to make the payments set forth in the Registration Statement adjacent
to the caption “Prospectus Summary—The Offering—Limited payments to insiders.” 
 5. (a) The undersigned agrees that the
Founder Shares may not be transferred, assigned or sold (except to certain permitted transferees as described in the Registration Statement or herein) until the earlier to occur of: (1) one year after the completion of the Company’s
initial Business Combination and (2) subsequent to completion of the Company’s initial Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Company’s Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits,
stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Company’s initial Business Combination
(provided that the 30-trading day period must be completed prior to any such transfer, assignment or sale) or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or
other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property. The Company shall cause the recipients of the Discretionary Allocation
Shares (as defined in the Registration Statement) to be subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in this paragraph 5(a). 

  
 2 













 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in paragraphs 5(a) and 5(c), during the period
commencing on the effective date of the Underwriting Agreement and ending 180 days after such date, the undersigned will not, without the prior written consent of the Representatives pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, (i) sell, offer to
sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, hedge or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of (or enter into any transaction that is designed to, or might reasonably be expected to, result in the disposition (whether by actual
disposition or effective economic disposition due to cash settlement or otherwise) by the undersigned or any affiliate of the undersigned or any person in privity with the undersigned or any affiliate of the undersigned), directly or indirectly,
including the filing (or participation in the filing) of a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in respect of, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or
decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder with respect to, any Units, shares of Common Stock, Founder
Shares or Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock owned by it, him or her, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the
economic consequences of ownership of any Units, shares of Common Stock, Founder Shares, Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock owned by it, him or her, whether any such transaction
is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction, including the filing of a registration statement, specified in clause (i) or (ii). The provisions of
this paragraph will not apply (i) to the transfer of Founder Shares to any independent director appointed or elected to the Company’s board of directors before or after the IPO or (ii) if the release or waiver is effected solely to
permit a transfer not for consideration and, in each case the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this Letter Agreement to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of the
transfer. 
 6. The undersigned hereby agrees and acknowledges that: (i) the Underwriters and the Company would be irreparably injured
in the event of a breach by the undersigned of its obligations under paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 8 of this Letter Agreement (ii) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (iii) the
non-breaching party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of such breach.

 7. The undersigned has full right and power, without violating any agreement by which it is
bound, to enter into this Letter Agreement. 
 8. The undersigned hereby waives any right to exercise redemption rights with respect to any
of the Founder Shares owned or to be owned by the undersigned, and agrees not to seek redemption with respect to such shares and any IPO Shares (or sell such shares to the Company in any tender offer) in connection with any stockholder vote to amend
the Charter that would modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Business Combination or to redeem 100% of the shares of Common Stock if the Company has not completed a Business
Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of shares of Common Stock. The Company shall cause the recipients of the Discretionary Allocation Shares (as defined in
the Registration Statement) to be subject to the waiver of redemption rights set forth in this paragraph 8. 
 9. This Letter Agreement
shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. The
undersigned hereby (i) agrees that any action, proceeding or claim against the undersigned arising out of or relating in any way to this Letter Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York of the United States
of America for the Southern District of New York, and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall be exclusive, and (ii) waives any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient
forum. 
 10. As used herein, (i) a “Business Combination” shall mean a merger, capital stock exchange, asset
acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or other similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities; (ii) “Insiders” shall mean all officers, directors and the sponsor of the Company immediately prior to
the IPO; (iii) “Founder Shares” shall mean all of the shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 of the Company outstanding prior to the IPO; (iv) “IPO Shares” shall mean the shares of
Common Stock included in the Units issued in the Company’s IPO; (v) “Private Placement Warrants” shall mean the warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock of the Company that are being sold privately by the Company

11. This Letter Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and
supersedes all prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby. This Letter Agreement may
not be changed, amended, modified or waived (other than to correct a typographical error) as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed by all parties hereto.

 12. This Letter Agreement shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability
of any term or provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Letter Agreement or of any other term or provision hereof. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend
that there shall be added as a part of this Letter Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable. 

13. This Letter Agreement may be executed in any number of original or electronic counterparts, and each of such counterparts shall for all
purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. 
 14. The
undersigned acknowledges and understands that the Underwriters and the Company will rely upon the agreements, representations and warranties set forth herein in proceeding with the IPO. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to render any
Underwriter a representative of, or a fiduciary with respect to, the Company, its stockholders or any creditor or vendor of the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

15. This Letter Agreement shall be binding on the undersigned and such person’s respective successors, heirs, personal representatives and
assigns. This Letter Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the liquidation of the Company; provided, that such termination shall not relieve the undersigned from liability for any
breach of this agreement prior to its termination. The parties hereto may not assign either this Letter Agreement or any of their rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other party. Any purported
assignment in violation of this paragraph shall be void and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee.
