upon the consummation of the Business Combination (as defined below) (the “Deferred Discount”); and


 


WHEREAS, the Company and the Trustee
desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions pursuant to which the Trustee shall hold the Property.


 


NOW THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:

or in money market funds meeting the conditions of paragraphs (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under
the Investment Company 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 on deposit, the Trustee may earn bank credits or other consideration;


 


(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
notify the Company, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC of all communications received by the Trustee
with respect to any Property requiring action by the Company;


 


(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 of the Company’s financial statements by the Company’s auditors;


 


(g) Participate
in any plan or proceeding for protecting or enforcing any right or interest arising from the Property if, as and when instructed
by the Company to do so;


 


(h) Render
to the Company monthly written statements of the activities of, and amounts in, the Trust Account reflecting all receipts and disbursements
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, Chief Financial Officer, Chief
Operating Officer, General Counsel, Secretary or Chairman of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”)

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, it being understood that the Trustee has no obligation to monitor or question
the Company’s position that an allocation has been made for taxes payable), only as directed in the Termination Letter and
the other documents referred to therein; provided, that, in the case a Termination Letter in the form of Exhibit A is received,
or (y) upon the date which is twenty-four (24) months after the closing of the Offering, or such later date as may be approved
by the Company’s shareholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association,
as it may be amended from time to time, if a Termination Letter has not been received by the Trustee prior to such date, in which
case the Trust Account shall be liquidated in accordance with the procedures set forth in 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 to the Public Shareholders
of record as of such date;


 






    2


     


    

 


(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 the amount requested by the Company to be used to redeem Ordinary Shares from Public Shareholders properly submitted
in connection with 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 twenty-four (24) months from the
closing of the Offering 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.


 






    3


     


    

 


2. Agreements
and Covenants of the Company. The Company hereby agrees and covenants to:


 


(a) Give
all instructions to the Trustee hereunder in writing, signed by the Company’s Chairman of the Board, 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;


 


(b) Subject
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 it hereunder and in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding brought against the Trustee involving
any claim, or in connection 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 be used to pay such fees unless and until it is distributed to the Company pursuant to Sections 1(i)
through 1(j) hereof. 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 be provided in Section 2(b) hereof;


 


(d) In
connection with any vote of the Company’s shareholders regarding a Business Combination, provide to the Trustee an affidavit
or certificate of the inspector of elections for the shareholder meeting verifying the vote of such shareholders regarding such
Business Combination;


 


(e) Provide
Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC with a copy of any Termination Letter(s) and/or any other correspondence
that is sent to the Trustee with respect to any proposed withdrawal from the Trust Account promptly after it issues the same;


 






    4


     


    

 


(f) Expressly
provide in any Instruction Letter (as defined in Exhibit A) delivered in connection with a Termination Letter in the Form of Exhibit
A that the Deferred Discount be paid directly to the account or accounts directed by Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and J.P.
Morgan Securities LLC; and


 


(g) Instruct
the Trustee to make only those distributions that are permitted under this Agreement, and refrain from instructing the Trustee
to make any distributions that are not permitted under this Agreement.

(a) Imply
obligations, perform duties, inquire or otherwise be subject to the provisions of any agreement or document other than this Agreement
and that which is expressly set forth herein;

any party except for liability arising out of the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct;


 


(c) Institute

any kind with respect to, any of the Property unless and until it shall have received instructions from the Company given as provided

(d) Refund
any depreciation in principal of any Property;


 


(e) Assume
that the authority of any person designated by the Company to give instructions hereunder shall not be continuing unless provided
otherwise in such designation, or unless the Company shall have delivered a written revocation of such authority to the Trustee;


 


(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 Trustee may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice
of counsel (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 delivered to the Trustee, signed by the proper party or parties and,
if the duties or rights of the Trustee are affected, unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto;


 






    5

(j) Prepare,
execute and file tax reports, income or other tax returns and pay any taxes with respect to any income generated by, and activities
relating to, the Trust Account, regardless of whether such tax is payable by the Trust Account or the Company, including, but not
limited to, franchise and income tax obligations, except pursuant to Section 1(j) hereof; or


 


(k) Verify
calculations, qualify or otherwise approve the Company’s written requests for distributions pursuant to Sections 1(i),

4. Trust

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 outside the Trust Account and not against the Property or any monies in the Trust Account.

This Agreement shall terminate as follows:


 


(a) If
the Trustee gives written notice to the Company that it desires to resign under this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable
efforts to locate a successor trustee, pending which the Trustee shall continue to act in accordance with this Agreement. At such
time that the Company notifies the Trustee that a successor trustee has been appointed and has agreed to become subject to the
terms of this Agreement (whether following the Trustee giving notice that it desires to resign under this Agreement or the Company
otherwise electing to replace 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 terminate; provided, however, that in the event that the Company does not
locate a successor trustee within ninety (90) days of receipt of the resignation notice from the Trustee, the Trustee may submit
an application to have the Property deposited with any court in the State of New York or with the United States District Court
for the Southern District of New York and upon such deposit, 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 Waldencast Long-Term Capital LLC for purposes of funding the Trust Account shall be promptly returned
to the Company or Waldencast Long-Term Capital 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

executing funds transfers, the Trustee shall rely upon all information supplied to it by the Company, including, account names,
account numbers, and all other identifying information relating to a Beneficiary, Beneficiary’s bank or intermediary bank.

vote of sixty five percent (65%) of the then outstanding Ordinary Shares and Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share,
of the Company 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 signed by each of the parties hereto.

Re: Trust Account Termination Letter


 


Dear Mr. Wolf and Ms. Gonzalez:


 


Pursuant to Section 1(i) of the Investment Management
Trust Agreement between Waldencast 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 JPMorgan 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 Credit Suisse
Securities (USA) LLC and J.P. Morgan Securities 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 JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. awaiting distribution, neither the Company nor the Representative will
earn any interest.


 


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.


 






    A-1


     


    

 


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.

Dear Mr. Wolf and Ms. Gonzalez:


 


Pursuant to Section 1(i) of the Investment
Management Trust Agreement between Waldencast 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 been unable to effect a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization

Agreement.


 


In accordance with the terms of the Trust
Agreement, we hereby authorize you to liquidate all of the assets in the Trust Account and to transfer the total proceeds into

[●] as the effective date for the purpose of determining when the Public Shareholders will be entitled to receive their share
of the liquidation proceeds. You agree to be the Paying Agent of record and, in your separate capacity as Paying Agent, agree to
distribute said funds directly to the Company’s Public Shareholders in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement and
the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company. Upon the distribution of all the funds, your obligations
under the Trust Agreement shall be terminated, except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 1(j) of the Trust Agreement.
