 RE: Subscription Agreement
for Founder Shares 
 Ladies and Gentlemen: 

We are pleased to accept the offer [_____] (the “Subscriber” or “you”) has made to
purchase [______] shares (“Founder Shares”) of Class B common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Class B Common Stock” together with all other classes of
Company (as defined below) common stock, the “Common Stock”), of Spindletop Health Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), from Spindletop Health Sponsor Group, LLC, a Delaware LLC (the
“Sponsor”). The terms (this “Agreement”) on which the Sponsor is willing to sell the Founder Shares to the Subscriber, and the Sponsor and the Subscriber’s agreements regarding such Founder Shares, are as
follows: 
 1. Purchase of Founder Shares. For the sum of $[______] (the “Purchase Price”), which the Sponsor
acknowledges receiving in cash, the Sponsor hereby sells and issues the Founder Shares to the Subscriber, and the Subscriber hereby purchases the Founder Shares from the Sponsor on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
Concurrently with the Subscriber’s execution of this Agreement, the Sponsor shall, at its option, deliver to the Subscriber a certificate registered in the Subscriber’s name representing the Founder Shares, or effect such delivery in
book-entry form. 
 2. Representations, Warranties and Agreements. 

2.1. The Subscriber’s Representations, Warranties and Agreements. To induce the Sponsor to sell the Founder Shares to the
Subscriber, the Subscriber hereby represents and warrants to the Sponsor and the Company and agrees with the Sponsor and the Company as follows: 

2.1.1. No Government Recommendation or Approval. The Subscriber understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon or
made any recommendation or endorsement of the offering of the Founder Shares. 
 2.1.2. No Conflicts. The execution, delivery
and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by the Subscriber of the transactions contemplated hereby do not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Subscriber is a
party, (ii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which the Subscriber is subject, or (iii) any agreement, order, judgment or decree to which the Subscriber is subject. 

2.1.3. Organization and Authority. The Subscriber possesses all requisite power and authority necessary to carry out the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Upon execution and delivery by you, this Agreement will be a legal, valid and binding agreement of the Subscriber, enforceable against the Subscriber in accordance with its terms, except as such
enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is
sought in a proceeding at law or in equity). 
 2.1.4. Experience, Financial Capability and Suitability. The Subscriber is:
(i) sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and benefits of the investment in the Founder Shares and (ii) able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Founder Shares for an indefinite period of time
because the Founder Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act (as defined below) and therefore cannot be resold unless such transaction is registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. The
Subscriber is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity to protect its own 












 
interests. The Subscriber must bear the economic risk of this investment until the Founder Shares are sold pursuant to: (x) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or
(y) an exemption from registration available with respect to such sale. The Subscriber is able to bear the economic risks of an investment in the Founder Shares and to afford a complete loss of the Subscriber’s investment in the Founder
Shares. 
 2.1.5. Access to Information; Independent Investigation. Prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Subscriber has
had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive answers from representatives of the Company concerning an investment in the Company, as well as the finances, operations, business and prospects of the Company, and the opportunity to obtain
additional information to verify the accuracy of all information so obtained. In determining whether to make this investment, the Subscriber has relied solely on the Subscriber’s own knowledge and understanding of the Company and its business
based upon the Subscriber’s own due diligence investigation and the information furnished pursuant to this paragraph. The Subscriber understands that no person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representations which
were not furnished pursuant to this Section 2 and the Subscriber has not relied on any other representations or information in making its investment decision, whether written or oral, relating to the Company, its operations or its prospects.

 2.1.6. Regulation D Offering. The Subscriber represents that it is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined
in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and acknowledges the sale contemplated hereby is being made in reliance on a private placement exemption applicable to
“accredited investors” within the meaning of Section 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act or similar exemptions under federal and state law. 

2.1.7. Investment Purposes. The Subscriber is purchasing the Founder Shares solely for investment purposes, for the
Subscriber’s own account and not for the account or benefit of any other person, and not with a view towards the distribution or dissemination thereof. The Subscriber did not enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or
general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502 of Regulation D under the Securities Act. 
 2.1.8. Restrictions on
Transfer; Shell Company. The Subscriber understands the Founder Shares are being offered in a transaction not involving a public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Subscriber understands the Founder Shares will be
“restricted securities” as defined in Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act and the Subscriber understands that any certificate or book entries representing the Founder Shares will contain a legend in respect of such
restrictions. If in the future the Subscriber decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Founder Shares, such Founder Shares may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only in accordance with the provisions of
Section 5 hereof. The Subscriber agrees that if any transfer of its Founder Shares or any interest therein is proposed to be made, as a condition precedent to any such transfer, the Subscriber may be required to deliver to the Company an
opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company. Absent registration under the Securities Act or an exemption therefrom, the Subscriber agrees not to resell the Founder Shares. The Subscriber further acknowledges that because the Company is a shell
company, Rule 144 may not be available to the Subscriber for the resale of the Founder Shares until at least one year following consummation of the initial business combination of the Company, despite technical compliance with the certain
requirements of Rule 144 and the release or waiver of any contractual transfer restrictions. 
 2.1.9. No Governmental
Consents. No governmental, administrative or other third-party consents or approvals are required, necessary or appropriate on the part of the Subscriber in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 

2.2. Sponsor’s Representations, Warranties and Agreements. To induce the Subscriber to purchase the Founder Shares, the
Sponsor hereby represents and warrants to the Subscriber and agrees with the Subscriber as follows: 
 2.2.1. Organization and
Corporate Power. The Company is a Delaware corporation and is qualified to do business in every jurisdiction in which the failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, operating
results or assets of the Company. The Sponsor possesses all requisite corporate power and authority necessary to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 












 2.2.2. No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement
and the consummation by the Sponsor of the transactions contemplated hereby do not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company, (ii) any agreement, indenture or
instrument to which the Company is a party, (iii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which the Company is subject, or (iv) any agreement, order, judgment or decree to which the Company is subject. 

2.2.3. Title to Securities. Upon issuance in accordance with, and payment pursuant to, the terms hereof, the Founder Shares will
be duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Upon issuance in accordance with, and payment pursuant to, the terms hereof the Subscriber will have or receive good title to the Founder Shares, free and clear of all liens, claims and
encumbrances of any kind, other than (a) transfer restrictions hereunder and other agreements to which the Founder Shares may be subject which have been notified to the Subscriber in writing, (b) transfer restrictions under federal and
state securities laws, and (c) liens, claims or encumbrances imposed due to the actions of the Subscriber. 
 2.2.4. No Adverse
Actions. There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings pending, threatened against or affecting the Company which: (i) seek to restrain, enjoin, prevent the consummation of or otherwise affect the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement or (ii) question the validity or legality of any transactions or seek to recover damages or to obtain other relief in connection with any transactions. 

3. [Reserved.] 

4. Waiver of Liquidation Distributions; Redemption Rights. In connection with the Founder Shares purchased pursuant to this
Agreement, the Subscriber hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any distributions by the Company from the trust account which will be established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders and
into which substantially all of the proceeds of the proposed initial public offering (“IPO”) will be deposited (the “Trust Account”), in the event of a liquidation of the Company upon the Company’s failure to
timely complete an initial business combination. For purposes of clarity, in the event the Subscriber purchases securities in the IPO or securities of the Company issued in the IPO in the aftermarket, any additional Common Stock so purchased shall
be eligible to receive any liquidating distributions from the Trust Account by the Company. However, in no event will the Subscriber have the right to redeem any shares of Common Stock into funds held in the Trust Account upon the successful
completion of an initial business combination. 
 5. Restrictions on Transfer. 

5.1. Securities Law Restrictions. In addition to any restrictions to be contained in that certain letter agreement (commonly known
as an “Insider Letter”) to be entered into between the Company and the Subscriber in connection with the consummation of the IPO, the Subscriber agrees not to sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or any
part of the Founder Shares unless, prior thereto (a) a registration statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws with respect to the Founder Shares proposed to be transferred shall then be
effective or (b) the Company has received an opinion from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such registration is not required because such transaction is exempt from registration under the Securities Act and the
rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder and with all applicable state securities laws. 
 5.2. Lock-up. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Founder Shares will be subject to lock-up provisions (the
“Lock-up”) contained in the Insider Letter. Pursuant to the Insider Letter, the Subscriber will agree (subject to certain customary exceptions) not to sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate
or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of the Company’s initial business combination or (B) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation,
merger, stock exchange or other similar transaction after its initial business combination that results in all of its stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the last sale price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Company’s initial business combination, the Founder Shares will be released from the Lock-up. 












 5.3. Restrictive Legends. All certificates representing the Founder Shares shall
have endorsed thereon legends substantially as follows: 
 “THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933,
AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND NEITHER THE SECURITIES NOR ANY INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS
OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS WHICH, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL (IF THE COMPANY SO REQUESTS), IS AVAILABLE.” 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO LOCKUP PROVISIONS AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE
DISPOSED DURING THE TERM OF THE LOCKUP PERIOD.” 
 5.4. Additional Founder Shares or Substituted Securities. In the event of
the declaration of a stock dividend, the declaration of a special dividend payable in a form other than Common Stock, a spin-off, a stock split, an adjustment in conversion ratio, a recapitalization or a
similar transaction affecting the Company’s outstanding Common Stock without receipt of consideration, any new, substituted or additional securities or other property which are by reason of such transaction distributed with respect to any
Founder Shares subject to this Section 5 or into which such Founder Shares thereby become convertible shall immediately be subject to this Section 5 and Section 3. Appropriate adjustments to reflect the distribution of such securities
or property shall be made to the number or class of Founder Shares subject to this Section 5 and Section 3. 

5.5. Registration Rights. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Founder Shares are being purchased pursuant to an exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act and will become freely tradable only after certain conditions are met or they are registered pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be entered into with the Company prior to the closing of the
IPO (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). 
 6. Unvested Founder Share Repurchase Option. 

6.1. Unvested Founder Share Forfeiture. All shares of Subscriber’s Founder Shares to the extent they have not vested pursuant to
subsection 6.2 shall be automatically forfeited for no consideration upon the termination of the Founder’s service to the Company as a director or a consultant under the terms set forth in this Section 6 (the “Unvested Founder
Share Forfeiture”), with no further action by the Company, the Sponsor or any other party. The Subscriber hereby acknowledges and agrees that the consideration provided to Subscriber under this Agreement constitutes sufficient consideration
for the forfeiture of any Founder Shares in accordance with the provisions of this Section 6 and that the Company and Sponsor would not have entered into this Agreement absent the provisions of this Section 6. 

6.2. Vesting of Founder Shares. One hundred percent (100%) of the Founder Shares will initially be subject to the Unvested Founder Share
Forfeiture. The Founder Shares will be released from the Unvested Founder Share Forfeiture at a rate of 1/36th of the Stock per month, effective as of the date hereof, subject to Founder’s continuous service to the Company as a director or
consultant. 
 7. Other Agreements. 

7.1. Further Assurances. The Subscriber agrees to execute such further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably be
necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement. 
 7.2. Notices. All notices, statements or other documents which are
required or contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing and delivered: (i) personally or sent by first class registered or certified mail, overnight courier service or facsimile or electronic transmission to the address designated in
writing, (ii) by facsimile to the number most recently provided to such party or such other address or fax number as may be designated in writing by such party and (iii) by electronic mail, to the electronic mail address most recently
provided to such party or such other electronic mail address as may be designated in writing by such party. Any notice or other communication so transmitted shall be deemed to have been given on the day of delivery, if delivered personally, on the
business day following receipt of written confirmation, if sent by facsimile or electronic transmission, one (1) business day after delivery to an overnight courier service or five (5) days after mailing if sent by mail. 












 7.3. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with that certain Insider Letter
to be entered into between the Subscriber and the Company and the Registration Rights Agreement, each substantially in the form to be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement on Form S-1 expected
to be filed by the Company in connection with the IPO, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between the Subscriber and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior oral or written agreements and
understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. No statement, representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of any kind not expressly set forth in this Agreement shall affect, or be used to interpret, change or restrict, the express terms
and provisions of this Agreement. 
 7.4. Modifications and Amendments. The terms and provisions of this Agreement may be
modified or amended only by written agreement executed by all parties hereto. 
 7.5. Waivers and Consents. The terms and
provisions of this Agreement may be waived, or consent for the departure therefrom granted, only by written document executed by the party entitled to the benefits of such terms or provisions. No such waiver or consent shall be deemed to be or shall
constitute a waiver or consent with respect to any other terms or provisions of this Agreement, whether or not similar. Each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which it was given, and
shall not constitute a continuing waiver or consent. 
 7.6. Assignment. The rights and obligations under this Agreement may not
be assigned by either party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party. 
 7.7. Benefit. All statements,
representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall be binding on the parties hereto and shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each party hereto. Nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed to create any rights or obligations except among the parties hereto, and no person or entity shall be regarded as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement. 

7.8. Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be construed in accordance with
and governed by the laws of Delaware applicable to contracts wholly performed within the borders of such state. 

7.9. Severability. In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any provision, or any portion
thereof, contained in this Agreement shall be unreasonable or unenforceable in any respect, then such provision shall be deemed limited to the extent that such court deems it reasonable and enforceable, and as so limited shall remain in full force
and effect. In the event that such court shall deem any such provision, or portion thereof, wholly unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect. 

7.10. No Waiver of Rights, Powers and Remedies. No failure or delay by a party hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy
under this Agreement, and no course of dealing between the parties hereto, shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or remedy of such party. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by a party
hereto, nor any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any such right, power or remedy, shall preclude such party from any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The election of
any remedy by a party hereto shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such party to pursue other available remedies. No notice to or demand on a party not expressly required under this Agreement shall entitle the party receiving such notice or
demand to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the party giving such notice or demand to any other or further action in any circumstances without such notice or demand. 

7.11. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made by the parties hereto in this Agreement
or in any other agreement, certificate or instrument provided for or contemplated hereby, shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and any investigations made by or on behalf of the parties. 

7.12. No Broker or Finder. Each of the parties hereto represents and warrants to the other that no broker, finder or other financial
consultant has acted on its behalf in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in such a way as to create any liability on the other. Each of the parties hereto agrees to indemnify and hold the other harmless from any
claim or demand for commission or other compensation by any broker, finder, financial consultant or similar agent claiming to have been employed by or on behalf of such party and to bear the cost of legal expenses incurred in defending against any
such claim. 












 7.13. Headings and Captions. The headings and captions of the various sections
of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall in no way modify or affect the meaning or construction of any of the terms or provisions hereof. 

7.14. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be
considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any
signature is delivered by facsimile transmission or any other form of electronic delivery, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and
effect as if such signature page were an original thereof. 
 7.15. Construction. The words “include,”
“includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be construed to include any other gender, and words in the
singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires. The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,”
“hereunder,” and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular section unless expressly so limited. The parties hereto intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein
will have independent significance. If any party hereto has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject
matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity) which such party hereto has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party hereto is in breach of the first representation, warranty, or covenant. 

7.16. Mutual Drafting. This Agreement is the joint product of the Subscriber, the Sponsor and the Company and each provision hereof
has been subject to the mutual consultation, negotiation and agreement of such parties and shall not be construed for or against any party hereto. 

8. Voting and Redemption of Founder Shares. The Subscriber agrees to vote the Founder Shares in favor of an initial business
combination that the Company negotiates and submits for approval to the Company’s stockholders and shall not seek redemption with respect to such Founder Shares. Additionally, the Subscriber agrees not to redeem any Founder Shares in connection
with a redemption or tender offer presented to the Company’s stockholders in connection with an initial business combination negotiated by the Company. 

9. Indemnification. Each party shall indemnify the other against any loss, cost or damages (including reasonable attorneys’
fees and expenses) incurred as a result of such party’s breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement. 

10. Section 83(b) Election. The Subscriber agrees to consult with the Subscriber’s tax advisor to determine the tax
consequences of Founder Shares and the advisability of filing an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”). An election under Code Section 83(b) must be filed within 30 days after the
date on which Subscriber purchases Founder Shares subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture. The Subscriber acknowledges that it is the sole responsibility of the Subscriber, and not the Company or Sponsor, to file the election under Code
Section 83(b) even if the Subscriber requests the Company or Sponsor to assist in making such filing. As a condition to the sale of the Founder Shares to the Subscriber, the Subscriber agrees to provide, on or before the due date for filing of
such election, proof that such election has or will be filed timely. The Subscriber shall notify the Company in writing within 24 hours after the Subscriber files an election pursuant to Code Section 83(b).
