X2 Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Sandbridge X2 Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company (the “Purchaser”).


 


WHEREAS, the Company intends to consummate an
initial public offering of the Company’s units (the “Public Offering”), each unit consisting of one share
of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (each, a “Share”), and one-third of one

“SEC”), File Numbers 333-253203 and 333-254069 (the “Registration Statement”), under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).


 


WHEREAS, the Purchaser has agreed to purchase,
at a price of $1.50 per warrant, an aggregate of 4,266,667 warrants (and up to 440,000 additional warrants if the underwriters
in the Public Offering exercise their over-allotment option in full) (the “Private Placement Warrants”), each
Private Placement Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per Share.


 


NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual
promises contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby, intending legally to be bound, agree as follows:

Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, 4,266,667 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant for an aggregate

Closing Date (if any) and the IPO Closing Date, a “Closing Date”), the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchaser,
and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, up to 440,000 Private Placement Warrants (or, to the extent the over-allotment
option is not exercised in full, a lesser number of Private Placement Warrants in proportion to portion of the over-allotment option
that is exercised) at a price of $1.50 per warrant for an aggregate purchase price of up to $660,000 (the “Over-allotment
Purchase Price”). The Purchaser shall pay the Over-allotment Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available
funds in accordance with the Company’s wiring instructions, at least one (1) business day prior to the Over-allotment Closing

(ii) At the time of, or prior to, the
IPO Closing Date, the Company and the Purchaser shall enter into a registration and stockholder rights agreement (the “Registration

C. Investment Representations.


 


(i) The Purchaser is acquiring the Private
Placement Warrants and, upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, the Shares issuable upon such exercise (collectively,
the “Securities”) for its 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, 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 did not decide to
enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) under
the Securities Act.


 


(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 and Stockholder 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
SEC 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 investments in the Securities.
