	 	Re:	Initial Public Offering


 


Gentlemen:


 


This letter (this
 “Letter Agreement”) is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the
 “Underwriting Agreement”) to be entered into between Newcourt Acquisition Corp, a Cayman Islands exempted
company (the “Company”), and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., as representative (the
 “Representative”) of the several underwriters (each, an “Underwriter” and
collectively, the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the
 “Public Offering”), of up to 25,300,000 of the Company’s units (including up to 3,300,000 units that
may be purchased to cover over-allotments, if any) (the “Units”), each comprised of one Class A ordinary
share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), and one-half of one warrant.
Each whole Warrant (each, a “Warrant”) entitles the holder thereof to purchase one Ordinary Share. The
Units shall be sold in the Public Offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (File Nos. 333-254328 and 333-260371) and
prospectus (the “Prospectus”) filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
 “Commission”) and the Company shall apply to have the Units listed on the Nasdaq Global Market. Certain
capitalized terms used herein are defined in Section 11 hereof.


 


In order to induce the Company and the Underwriters
to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the Public Offering and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt
and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Newcourt SPAC Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) and the undersigned
individuals, each of whom is a member of the Company’s board of directors and/or management team, hereby agree with the Company
as follows:


 


1. (a) The officers and directors of the Company
will not enter into a binding agreement for a proposed Business Combination or propose any Business Combination to shareholders of the
Company unless such action is first approved by the Sponsor.


 


(b) Subject to Section 1(a), the Sponsor and each
Insider agrees that (A) if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection with such proposed
Business Combination, it, he or she shall (i) vote any Shares owned by it, him or her in favor of any proposed Business Combination and
(ii) not redeem any Shares owned by it, him or her in connection with such shareholder approval, (B) if the Company engages in a tender
offer in connection with any proposed Business Combination, it, he or she shall not sell any Shares to the Company in connection therewith
and (C) if the Company seeks shareholder approval of any proposed amendment to the Charter prior to the consummation of a Business Combination,
it, he or she shall not redeem any Shares owned by it, him or her in connection with such shareholder approval.


 


2. (a) The Sponsor and each
Insider hereby agrees that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within the time period set forth
in the Charter, the Sponsor and each Insider shall take all reasonable steps 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, subject to lawfully
available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the Ordinary Shares sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering (the “Offering
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 any taxes (less up to $100,000
of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption will completely
extinguish all Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if
any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the
Company’s remaining shareholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses
(ii) and (iii) above to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements
of applicable law. The Sponsor and each Insider agrees to not propose any amendment to the Charter (i) that would affect the substance
or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination
within the time period described in the Prospectus or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders’ rights
or pre-Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides its public shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Ordinary
Shares upon approval of any such amendment 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 any
taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares.


 



     


     


    




 


(b) Each Insider who is a member of the Company’s
board of directors hereby agrees that in the event of such Insider’s resignation or removal from the Company’s board of directors
prior to the Company’s consummation of the initial Business Combination, the Insider shall Transfer any Founder Shares that they
hold to the Sponsor. The Sponsor that would otherwise receive such Founder Shares has the sole and absolute discretion to waive this requirement.


 


The Sponsor and each Insider acknowledges that
it, he or she 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 with respect to the Founder Shares held by it, him or her. The Sponsor and each
Insider hereby further waives any claim such Sponsor or Insider 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 except in each case with respect
to the Sponsor’s or the Insider’s right to a pro rata interest in the proceeds held in the Trust Fund for any Offering Shares
such Sponsor or Insider may hold.


 


3. During the period commencing on the effective
date of the Underwriting Agreement and ending 180 days after such date, the Sponsor and each Insider shall not, without the prior written
consent of the Representative, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase
or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, 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 Commission promulgated thereunder, with respect to any Units, Ordinary Shares, Founder Shares, Warrants or any
securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, Ordinary Shares 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, Ordinary
Shares, Founder Shares, Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, Ordinary Shares 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 specified in clause (i) or (ii). Each of the Insiders and the Sponsor acknowledges and agrees
that, prior to the effective date of any release or waiver of the restrictions set forth in this Section 3, the Company shall announce
the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two business days before the effective date of
the release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted shall only be effective two business days after the publication date of such press
release. The provisions of this Section will not apply if the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer not for consideration
and 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.


 


4. In the event of the liquidation of the
Trust Account, Newcourt SPAC Sponsor LLC (which for purposes of clarification shall not extend to any other shareholders, members or
managers of Newcourt SPAC Sponsor LLC) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any and all loss, liability, claim,
damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in
investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, whether pending or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) to which the
Company may become subject as a result of any claim by (i) any third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company or
(ii) a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar
agreement or a Business Combination agreement (a “Target”); provided, however, that such
indemnification of the Company by the Sponsor shall apply only to the extent necessary to ensure that such claims by a third party
for services rendered or products sold to the Company or a Target do not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below
(i) $10.20 per share of the Offering Shares or (ii) such lesser amount per share of the Offering Shares held in the Trust Account
due to reductions in the value of the trust assets as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, in each case, net of the
amount of interest earned on the property in the Trust Account which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a
third party (including a Target) who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to
any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. In the event that any such executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against such third
party, the Sponsor shall not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. The Sponsor shall have the
right to defend against any such claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Company.


 



     


     


    

 





5. To the extent that the Underwriters do not exercise
their over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 3,300,000 Units within 45 days from the date of the Prospectus (and as further
described in the Prospectus), the Sponsor agrees to surrender, at no cost, a number of Founder Shares in the aggregate equal to 841,500
multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is 3,300,000 minus the number of Units purchased by the Underwriters upon the exercise
of their over-allotment option, and (ii) the denominator of which is 3,300,000.


 


6. The Sponsor and each Insider hereby agrees and
acknowledges that: (i) the Underwriters and the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by such Sponsor or an Insider
of its, his or her obligations under Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7(a), 7(b), and 9, as applicable, 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 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. (a) Subject to Section
7(c), the Sponsor and each Insider agrees that it, he or she shall not Transfer any Founder Shares (or Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion
thereof) until the earlier of (a) one year after the of the Company’s initial Business Combination and (b) subsequent to the Company’s
initial Business Combination, (x) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange, reorganization or other
similar transaction that results in the Company’s public shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash,
securities or other property or (y) if the last reported sale price of the Ordinary Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted
for share sub-divisions, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading
day period commencing at least 150 days after our initial business combination (the “Founder Shares Lock-up Period”).


 


(b) Subject to Section 7(c), the Sponsor and
each Insider agrees that it, he or she shall not Transfer any Placement Units, Placement Shares, Placement Warrants (or Ordinary Shares
issued or issuable upon the conversion or exercise of Placement Warrants), until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination
(the “Placement Unit Lock-up Period”, together with the Founder Shares Lock-up Period, the “Lock-up
Periods”).


 


(c) Notwithstanding
the provisions set forth in Sections 7(a) and (b), Transfers of the Founder Shares, Placement Units, Placement Shares, Placement
Warrants and Ordinary Shares issued or issuable upon the exercise or conversion of Placement Warrants or the Founder Shares and that
are held by the Sponsor, any Insider or any of their permitted transferees (that have complied with this Section 7(c)), are
permitted (a) to the Company's officers, our directors, the Initial Shareholders, Cantor, CCM, or Cantor or CCM’s officers,
directors or direct or indirect equityholders, (b) to an affiliate or immediate family member of any of our officers, directors,
initial shareholders or Cantor or CCM, (c) to any member, officer or director of Sponsor, or any immediate family member, partner,
affiliate or employee of a member of Sponsor, or any officers, directors, or direct or indirect equityholders of Cantor or CCM, (d)
by gift to any permitted transferee under any of the immediately preceding subsections (a) through (c), a trust, the beneficiaries
of which are one or more permitted transferees under any of the immediately preceding subsections (a) through (c), or a charitable
organization, (e) by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of any of our officers, our directors, the initial
shareholders, or members of Sponsor, or any officers, directors or direct or indirect equityholders of Cantor or CCM, (f) pursuant
to a qualified domestic relations order, (g) in the event of our liquidation prior to consummation of our initial business
combination, (h) by virtue of the laws of Delaware, our sponsor’s limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of the
sponsor, the organizational documents of Cantor upon dissolution of Cantor or the organizational documents of CCM upon the
dissolution of CCM, (i) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, upon and in connection with a liquidation, merger, stock
exchange or other similar transaction which results in all of our shareholders having the right to exchange their ordinary shares
for cash, securities or other property, (j) subsequent to the initial Business Combination, in the event of a consolidation merger,
stock exchange or similar transaction in which the company is the surviving entity that results in a change in the majority of the
Company's board of directors or management team and (k) through private sales or transfers made in connection with any forward
purchase agreement or similar arrangement or in connection with the consummation of the Company's initial Business Combination at
prices no greater than the price at which the Founder Shares, Placement Shares or Warrants were originally purchased; provided,
however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (f), (h) and (k) these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement
agreeing to be bound by these transfer restrictions. For the avoidance of doubt, for the purposes of this Letter Agreement, a
managed account managed by the same investment manager of any member of the Sponsor shall be deemed an affiliate of such member.


 






     


     


    

 


(d) Subject to the limitations described herein,
