As more fully described in, and subject
to the terms and conditions described in, the Company’s final prospectus for its initial public offering, dated [                    ],
2021, the holder(s) of this certificate shall be entitled to receive a pro rata portion of certain funds held in the trust
account established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering only in the event that (i) the Company
redeems the Ordinary Shares sold in its initial public offering and liquidates because it does not consummate an initial business
combination within the period of time set forth in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association
(as the same may be further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “amended and restated
memorandum and articles of association”), (ii) the Company redeems the Ordinary Shares sold in its initial public
offering in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (A) that
would modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide holders of the Ordinary Shares the right to have
their shares redeemed in connection with the Company’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the Ordinary Shares
if the Company does not complete its initial business combination within the time period set forth therein or (B) with respect
to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of the Ordinary Shares, or (iii) if the holder(s) seek(s) to
redeem for cash his, her or its respective Ordinary Shares in connection with a tender offer (or proxy solicitation, solely in
the event the Company seeks shareholder approval of the proposed initial business combination) setting forth the details of a proposed
initial business combination. In no other circumstances shall the holder(s) have any right or interest of any kind in or to
the trust account.
