Section   3.            Representations
and Warranties of the Purchaser. As a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement and issue and sell the
Warrants to the Purchaser, the Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company (which representations and warranties shall
survive the Closing Dates) that:


 


A.           Organization
and Requisite Authority. The Purchaser possesses all requisite power and authority necessary to carry out the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.


 


B.            Authorization;
No Breach.


 


(i)            This
Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy,
insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general applicability relating to or affecting
creditors’ rights and to general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law).


 


(ii)           The
execution and delivery by the Purchaser of this Agreement and the fulfillment of and compliance with the terms hereof by the Purchaser
does not and shall not as of the Closing Dates conflict with or result in a breach by the Purchaser of the terms, conditions or
provisions of any agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which the Purchaser is subject.


 


C.            Investment
Representations.


 


(i)            The
Purchaser is acquiring the Warrants and, upon exercise of the Warrants, the Shares issuable upon such exercise (collectively, the
 “Securities”), for the Purchaser’s own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view towards,
or for resale in connection with, any public sale or distribution thereof.


 


(ii)           The
Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D under the
Securities Act and the Purchaser has not experienced a disqualifying event as enumerated pursuant to Rule 506(d) of Regulation
D under the Securities Act.


 


(iii)          The
Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and will be sold to it in reliance on specific exemptions from the
registration requirements of the United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is relying upon the truth
and accuracy of, and the Purchaser’s compliance with, the representations and warranties of the Purchaser set forth herein
in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire such Securities.


 


(iv)          The
Purchaser’s decision to enter into this Agreement was not the a result of any general solicitation or general advertising
within the meaning of Rule 502(c) under the Securities Act.


 






    4


     


    

 


(v)           The
Purchaser has been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations of the Company and materials
relating to the offer and sale of the Securities which have been requested by the Purchaser. The Purchaser has been afforded the
opportunity to ask questions of the executive officers and directors of the Company. The Purchaser understands that its investment
in the Securities involves a high degree of risk and it has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered
necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of the Securities.




 


(vi)          The
Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental agency has passed on
or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the Securities
by the Purchaser nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.


 


(vii)         The
Purchaser understands that: (a) the Securities have not been and are not being registered under the Securities Act or any
state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (1) subsequently registered thereunder
or (2) sold in reliance on an exemption therefrom; and (b) except as specifically set forth in the Registration Rights
Agreement, neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register the Securities under the Securities Act
or any state securities laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. In this regard, the Purchaser
understands that the Securities and Exchange Commission has taken the position that promoters or affiliates of a blank check company
and their transferees, both before and after an initial business combination, are deemed to be “underwriters” under
the Securities Act when reselling the securities of a blank check company. Based on that position, Rule 144 adopted pursuant
to the Securities Act would not be available for resale transactions of the Securities despite technical compliance with the requirements
of such Rule, and the Securities can be resold only through a registered offering or in reliance upon another exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act.


 


(viii)        The
Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, knowledge of the high degree of risk associated
with investments in the securities of companies in the development stage such as the Company, is capable of evaluating the merits
and risks of an investment in the Securities and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities in the amount
contemplated hereunder for an indefinite period of time. The Purchaser has adequate means of providing for its current financial
needs and contingencies and will have no current or anticipated future needs for liquidity which would be jeopardized by the investment
in the Securities. The Purchaser can afford a complete loss of its investment in the Securities.


 


Section   4.            Conditions
of the Purchaser’s Obligations. The obligations of the Purchaser to purchase and pay for the Warrants are subject to
the fulfillment, on or before the Closing Dates, of each of the following conditions:
