Re: Initial Public Offering


 


Gentlemen:


 


This letter agreement (the “Agreement”)
is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered
into by and between Abri SPAC 2, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) and Chardan Capital Markets, LLC,,
as representative (the “Representative”) of the several underwriters (each an “Underwriter
and collectively the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “IPO”)
of up to 11,500,000 of the Company’s units (including up to 1,500,000 units that may be purchased to cover the Underwriters’
option to purchase additional units, if any) (the “Units”), each comprised of one share of Common Stock of the
Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), one warrant, with each warrant being exercisable
to purchase one share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per share (“Warrant”), and one right to receive one-tenth
of one share of common stock upon the consummation of an initial business combination (the “Rights”). Certain capitalized
terms used herein are defined in paragraph 14 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, Abri Ventures 2, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”)
and each of the undersigned hereby agrees with the Company as follows:


 


1. The Sponsor and each of the
undersigned agrees that if the Company seeks stockholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection with such proposed
Business Combination, it, he or she shall (i) vote any shares of Common Stock owned by it, him or her in favor of any proposed Business
Combination and (ii) not redeem any shares of Common Stock owned by it, him or her in connection with such stockholder approval. If the
Company engages in a tender offer in connection with any proposed Business Combination, the Sponsor and each of the undersigned agrees
that it, he or she will not seek to sell its, his or her shares of Common Stock to the Company in connection with such tender offer.


 


2. (a) In the event that the
Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 12 months from the closing of the Company’s IPO (or upon extension, 15
or 18 months, as applicable), the undersigned shall take all reasonable steps to (i) cause the Company to cease all operations except
for the purpose of winding up, (ii) cause the Company, as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter,
to redeem 100% of the outstanding IPO Shares and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval
of the Company’s remaining stockholders and board of directors, cause the Company to dissolve and liquidate, subject (in the case
of (ii) and (iii) above) to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements
of other applicable law.


 


(b) The undersigned hereby waives any and all
right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any distribution of the Trust Fund and any remaining net assets of the Company as
a result of such liquidation with respect to any Insider Shares or Private Units he, she or it owns (“Claim”)
and hereby waives any Claim the undersigned may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any contracts or agreements with
the Company and will not seek recourse against the Trust Fund for any reason whatsoever, other than, in each case, with respect to any
IPO Shares, with respect to which the undersigned may receive distributions from the Trust Fund upon the Trust Fund being liquidated and
distributed to the holders of IPO Shares in the circumstances described in Section 2(a) above. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees
that there will be no distribution from the Trust Fund with respect to any Common Stock underlying the Private Units, all rights of which
will terminate on the Company’s liquidation.


 






     


    


    

 


3.
The undersigned will place into escrow all of his, her or its Insider Shares pursuant to the terms of a Stock Escrow Agreement which the
Company will enter into with the undersigned and an escrow agent acceptable to the Company. The Insider Shares will be placed into an
escrow account maintained by the escrow agent. 50% percent of the Insider Shares will not be transferred, assigned, sold or released from
escrow until the earlier of (i) 6 months after the date of the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination or (ii)
the date on which the closing price of the shares of the Company’s Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.50 per share (as adjusted
for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations and recapitalizations) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing
after the closing of the Company’s initial Business Combination and the remaining 50% of the Insider Shares will not be transferred,
assigned, sold or released from escrow until 6 months after the date of the closing of the Company’s initial Business Combination,
or earlier, in either case, if, subsequent to the Company’s initial Business Combination, the Company consummates a subsequent liquidation,
merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange
their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property; provided that the foregoing restrictions shall not apply to
transfers (i) amongst the Company’s pre-IPO stockholders (including, to the extent the Company’s pre-IPO stockholders are
entities, to such entity’s members, partners, stockholders or other equity holders) or to the Company’s officers, directors
and employees, (ii) if the undersigned (or Permitted Transferee (as defined below)) is an entity, as a distribution to its partners, stockholders,
or members upon its liquidation, (iii) by bona fide gift to a member of the undersigned’s (or Permitted Transferee’s) immediate
family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is the undersigned (or Permitted Transferee) or a member of the undersigned’s (or
Permitted Transferee’s) immediate family, for estate planning purposes, (iv) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon
death, (v) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, (vi) by private sales at prices no greater than the price at which the Insider
Shares were originally purchased or (vii) to the Company for the cancellation of up to 375,000 Insider Shares subject to forfeiture to
the extent that the Underwriters’ over-allotment option is not exercised in full or in part in connection with the consummation
of a Business Combination, in each case (except for clause vii) where these permitted transferees (“Permitted Transferees”)
agree in writing to the terms of the transfer restrictions.


 


4. INTENTIONALLY OMITTED.


 


5. In order to minimize potential
conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple affiliations, the undersigned agrees to present to the Company for its consideration,
prior to presentation to any other person or entity, any suitable opportunity to acquire a target business, until the earlier of the consummation
by the Company of a Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary and contractual obligations
the undersigned might have.


 


6. The undersigned acknowledges
and agrees that prior to entering into a Business Combination with a target business that is affiliated with any Insiders of the Company
or their affiliates, including any company that is a portfolio company of, or otherwise affiliated with, or has received financial investment
from, an entity with which any Insider or their affiliates is affiliated, (i) such transaction must be approved by a majority of the Company’s
disinterested and independent directors, (ii) the Company must obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking or accounting
firm as to the fair market value of the target business and that such Business Combination is fair to the Company’s unaffiliated
stockholders from a financial point of view and (iii) such transaction must be approved by the Company’s audit committee.


 


7. Neither the undersigned,
any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive or accept a finder’s
fee or any other compensation in the event the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned or any affiliate of the undersigned
originates a Business Combination.


 


8. The undersigned agrees to
be an officer and/or director of the Company, as applicable, until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination
or the liquidation of the Company. The undersigned’s biographical information previously furnished to the Company and the Representative
is true and accurate in all material respects, does not omit any material information with respect to the undersigned’s biography
