and Stratim Cloud Acquisition, 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 (a “Share”), and one-third
of one redeemable warrant, each whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per Share

with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, File No. 333-253174 (the “Registration Statement”),
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); and


 


WHEREAS, pursuant to this Agreement, the
Purchaser has agreed to purchase an aggregate of 4,666,667 warrants (and up to 5,166,667 warrants depending on the extent to which
the underwriters in the Public Offering exercise their over-allotment option (the “Option”)) (the “Sponsor
Warrants”), each Sponsor 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:


 


Section 1.
Authorization, Purchase and Sale; Terms of the Sponsor Warrants.


 


A.
Authorization of the Sponsor Warrants. The Company has duly authorized the issuance and sale of the Sponsor Warrants,

to the Purchaser.


 


B.
Purchase and Sale of the Sponsor Warrants.


 


(i)
On the date of the initial consummation of the Public Offering or on such earlier time and date as may be mutually agreed
by the Purchaser and the Company (the “IPO Closing Date”), the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchaser,
and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, 4,666,667 Sponsor Warrants at a price of $1.50 per warrant (such aggregate purchase
price for such Sponsor Warrants, the “Purchase Price”), which shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately
available funds by the Purchaser to the Company at least one (1) business day prior to such IPO Closing Date in accordance with
the wiring instructions provided by the Company to Purchaser.

On the date of the consummation of the Option, if any, in connection with the Public Offering or on such earlier time and
date as may be mutually agreed by the Purchaser and the Company (an “Over-allotment Closing Date,” and
each Over-allotment 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 500,000 Sponsor Warrants (or, to the
extent the Option is not exercised in full, a lesser number of Sponsor Warrants in proportion to the portion of the Option that
is then exercised) at a price of $1.50 per warrant for an aggregate purchase price of up to $750,000 (such aggregate purchase price
for such Sponsor Warrants, the “Over-allotment Purchase Price”), which shall be paid by wire transfer
of immediately available funds by the Purchaser to the Company at least one (1) business day prior to such Over-allotment Closing
Date in accordance with the wiring instructions provided by the Company to Purchaser.


 


(iii)   
On each Closing Date, following the payment by the Purchaser of the Purchase Price or Over-Allotment Purchase Price, as
applicable, by wire transfer of immediately available funds or by such other method as may be reasonably acceptable to the Company,

Terms of the Sponsor Warrants.

(ii)
At the time of, or prior to, the closing of the Public Offering, the Company and the Purchaser shall enter into a registration
rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company will grant certain registration
rights to the Purchaser relating to the Sponsor Warrants purchased by the Purchaser and the Shares underlying such Sponsor Warrants.


 


Section 2.

and purchase the Sponsor Warrants, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser (which representations and warranties
shall survive each Closing Date) that:

Organization and Corporate Power. The Company is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
under the laws of the State of Delaware 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.

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).

The execution and delivery by the Purchaser of this Agreement and the fulfillment of and compliance with the terms hereof
by the Purchaser do not and shall not as of each Closing Date (a) conflict with or result in a breach by the Purchaser of the terms,
conditions or provisions of, (b) constitute a default under, (c) result in the creation of any lien, security interest,

Purchaser is subject or, any agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which the Purchaser is subject, except for any
filings required after the date hereof under federal or state securities laws.


 


C.
Investment Representations.


 


(i)
The Purchaser is acquiring the Sponsor Warrants and, upon exercise of the Sponsor 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.


 






    4


     


    

 


(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) of Regulation D 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) in a transaction
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 a Business Combination (as defined in the Warrant Agreement),
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 understands that the Sponsor Warrants will bear the legend substantially in the form set forth in the Warrant
Agreement.


 


(ix)
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.
