Act of 1940, as amended, which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company; it being understood
that the Trust Account will earn no interest while account funds are uninvested awaiting the Company’s instructions hereunder; while

(d) Collect
and receive, when due, all interest or other income arising from the Property, which shall become part of the “Property,”
as such term is used herein;


 


(e) Promptly

(f) Supply
any necessary information or documents as may be requested by the Company (or its authorized agents) in connection with the Company’s
preparation of tax returns relating to assets held in the Trust Account or in connection with the preparation or completion of the audit

(g) Participate

of the Trust Account;


 


(i) Commence
liquidation of the Trust Account only after and promptly after (x) receipt of, and only in accordance with, the terms of a letter from
the Company (“Termination Letter”) in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as either Exhibit
A or Exhibit B signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, President, Co-President, Chief Financial Officer, Chief

the Termination Letter attached as Exhibit B and the Property in the Trust Account, including interest (less up to $100,000 of interest
that may be released to the Company to pay dissolution expenses and which interest shall be net of any taxes payable), shall be distributed

(j) Upon
written request from the Company, which may be given from time to time in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit
C (a “Tax Payment Withdrawal Instruction”), withdraw from the Trust Account and distribute to the Company the
amount of interest earned on the Property requested by the Company to cover any tax obligation owed by the Company as a result of assets
of the Company or interest or other income earned on the Property, which amount shall be delivered directly to the Company by electronic
funds transfer or other method of prompt payment, and the Company shall forward such payment to the relevant taxing authority; provided,
however, that to the extent there is not sufficient cash in the Trust Account to pay such tax obligation, the Trustee shall liquidate
such assets held in the Trust Account as shall be designated by the Company in writing to make such distribution so long as there is no
reduction in the principal amount per share initially deposited in the Trust Account; provided, further, however,
that if the tax to be paid is a franchise tax, the written request by the Company to make such distribution shall be accompanied by a
copy of the franchise tax bill for the Company (it being acknowledged and agreed that any such amount in excess of interest income earned
on the Property shall not be payable from the Trust Account). The written request of the Company referenced above shall constitute presumptive
evidence that the Company is entitled to said funds, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility to look beyond said request;


 


(k) Upon
written request from the Company, which may be given from time to time in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit
D (a “Shareholder Redemption Withdrawal Instruction”), the Trustee shall distribute on behalf of the Company

a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) to
modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial merger,
share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more
businesses (a “Business Combination”) or to redeem 100% of the Company’s public shares if it does not
complete its initial Business Combination within such time as set forth in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles
of association or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination
activity. The written request of the Company referenced above shall constitute presumptive evidence that the Company is entitled to distribute
said funds, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility to look beyond said request; and


 


(l) Not
make any withdrawals or distributions from the Trust Account other than pursuant to Section 1(i), (j) or (k) above.

(a) Give
all instructions to the Trustee hereunder in writing, signed by the Company’s Chairman of the Board, President, Co-President, Chief
Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operating Officer, General Counsel, Secretary or other authorized officer of the Company.
In addition, except with respect to its duties under Sections 1(i), 1(j) and 1(k) hereof, the Trustee shall be entitled
to rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, any verbal or telephonic advice or instruction which it, in good faith and with reasonable
care, believes to be given by any one of the persons authorized above to give written instructions, provided that the Company shall promptly
confirm such instructions in writing;

to Section 4 hereof, hold the Trustee harmless and indemnify the Trustee from and against any and all reasonable and documented expenses,
including reasonable outside counsel fees and disbursements, or losses suffered by the Trustee in connection with any action taken by

with any claim or demand, which in any way arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the services of the Trustee hereunder, or the Property
or any interest earned on the Property, except for expenses and losses resulting from the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful
misconduct. Promptly after the receipt by the Trustee of notice of demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding,
pursuant to which the Trustee intends to seek indemnification under this Section 2(b), it shall notify the Company in writing of
such claim (hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnified Claim”). The Trustee shall have the right to conduct
and manage the defense against such Indemnified Claim; provided that the Trustee shall obtain the consent of the Company with respect
to the selection of counsel, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Trustee may not agree to settle any Indemnified Claim
without the prior written consent of the Company, which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company may participate in
such action with its own counsel;


 


(c) Pay
the Trustee the fees set forth on Schedule A hereto, including an initial acceptance fee, annual administration fee, and transaction processing
fee which fees shall be subject to modification by the parties from time to time. It is expressly understood that the Property shall not

The Company shall pay the Trustee the initial acceptance fee and the first annual administration fee at the consummation of the Offering.
The Company shall not be responsible for any other fees or charges of the Trustee except as set forth in this Section 2(c) and as may

(f) The
other parties hereto or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in
good faith and in the Trustee’s best judgment, except for the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct. The

(including counsel chosen by the Trustee with written notification to the Company, which counsel may be the Company’s counsel),
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 the Trustee believes, in good faith and with reasonable
care, to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Trustee shall not be bound by any notice or demand,
or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement or any of the terms hereof, unless evidenced by a written instrument

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. In the event the Trustee has any Claim against the Company under this Agreement, including, without limitation,
under Section 2(b) or Section 2(c) hereof, the Trustee shall pursue such Claim solely against the Company and its assets

Company notifies the Trustee that a successor trustee has been appointed and has agreed to become subject to the terms of this Agreement

the Trustee under this Agreement), the Trustee shall transfer the management of the Trust Account to the successor trustee, including
but not limited to the transfer of copies of the reports and statements relating to the Trust Account, whereupon this Agreement shall

the Trustee shall be immune from any liability whatsoever;


 






    6


     


    

 


(b) At such
time that the Trustee has completed the liquidation of the Trust Account and its obligations in accordance with the provisions of Section
1(i) hereof and distributed the Property in accordance with the provisions of the Termination Letter, this Agreement shall terminate except
with respect to Section 2(b); or


 


(c) If the
Offering is not consummated within ten (10) business days of the date of this Agreement, in which case any funds received by the Trustee
from the Company or Rigel Resource Acquisition Holding LLC for purposes of funding the Trust Account shall be promptly returned to the
Company or Rigel Resource Acquisition Holding LLC, as applicable.


 


6. Miscellaneous.


 


(a) The
Company and the Trustee each acknowledge that the Trustee will follow the security procedures set forth below with respect to funds transferred
from the Trust Account. The Company and the Trustee will each restrict access to confidential information relating to such security procedures

voting together as a single class; provided that no such amendment will affect any Public Shareholder who has otherwise indicated his,
her or its election to redeem his, her or its Ordinary Shares in connection with a shareholder vote sought to amend this Agreement), this
Agreement or any provision hereof may only be changed, amended or modified (other than to correct a typographical error) by a writing

Re: Trust Account - Termination Letter


 


Dear Mr. Wolf and Ms. Gonzalez:


 


Pursuant to Section 1(i) of the Investment Management Trust
Agreement between Rigel Resource Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust
Company (the “Trustee”), dated as of [●], 2021 (the “Trust Agreement”), this
is to advise you that the Company has entered into an agreement with    (the “Target
Business”) to consummate a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business
combination with the Target Business (the “Business Combination”) on or about [insert date]. The Company
shall notify you at least seventy-two (72) hours in advance of the actual date (or such shorter time period as you may agree) of the consummation
of the Business Combination (“Consummation Date”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have
the meanings set forth in the Trust Agreement.


 


In accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement,
we hereby authorize you to commence to liquidate all of the assets of the Trust Account and to transfer the proceeds into the above-referenced
trust operating account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. to the effect that, on the Consummation Date, all of the funds held in the Trust
Account will be immediately available for transfer to the account or accounts that Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (the “Representative”)
(with respect to the Deferred Discount) and the Company shall direct on the Consummation Date. It is acknowledged and agreed that while
the funds are on deposit in the trust operating account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. awaiting distribution, neither the Company nor
the Representative will earn any interest.


 






    A-1


     


    

 


On the Consummation Date (i) counsel for the Company
shall deliver to you written notification that the Business Combination has been consummated, or will be consummated substantially, concurrently
with your transfer of funds to the accounts as directed by the Company (the “Notification”) and (ii) the Company
shall deliver to you (a) a certificate of the Chief Executive Officer, which verifies that the Business Combination has been approved
by a vote of the Company’s shareholders, if a vote is held and (b) joint written instruction signed by the Company and the Representative
with respect to the transfer of the funds held in the Trust Account, including payment of the Deferred Discount from the Trust Account
(the “Instruction Letter”). You are hereby directed and authorized to transfer the funds held in the Trust Account
immediately upon your receipt of the Notification and the Instruction Letter, in accordance with the terms of the Instruction Letter.
In the event that certain deposits held in the Trust Account may not be liquidated by the Consummation Date without penalty, you will
notify the Company in writing of the same and the Company shall direct you as to whether such funds should remain in the Trust Account
and be distributed after the Consummation Date to the Company. Upon the distribution of all the funds, net of any payments necessary for
reasonable unreimbursed expenses related to liquidating the Trust Account, your obligations under the Trust Agreement shall be terminated.


 


In the event that the Business Combination is not
consummated on the Consummation Date described in the notice thereof and we have not notified you on or before the original Consummation
Date of a new Consummation Date, then upon receipt by the Trustee of written instructions from the Company, the funds held in the Trust
Account shall be reinvested as provided in Section 1(c) of the Trust Agreement on the business day immediately following the Consummation
Date as set forth in the notice as soon thereafter as possible.


 


	 	Very truly yours,
