under the Transaction, solvent and able to pay its debts as they come due, with assets having a fair value greater than liabilities and
with capital sufficient to carry on the businesses in which it engages. Counterparty: (i) has not engaged in and will not engage in any

of the Shares (or any security that may be converted into or exercised or exchanged for Shares, or whose value under its terms may in
whole or in significant part be determined by the value of the Shares) or in connection with any future issuance of securities.



 






    12

any post-effective amendment thereof), proxy statement, or other document that includes any disclosure regarding this Confirmation or
the Transaction without consulting with and reasonably considering any comments received from Seller, provided that, no consultation shall
be required with respect to any subsequent disclosures that are substantially similar to prior disclosures by Counterparty that were reviewed

disclosure relating to the Transaction and shall consult with Seller to ensure that such public disclosure, including the Form 8-K that
announces the Transaction adequately discloses the material terms and conditions of the Transaction in form and substance reasonably acceptable
to Seller; provided that the Form 8-K shall be publicly filed on the same date that definitive transaction documents are signed and provided
further, that to the extent definitive transaction documents are not signed at least 48 hours prior to Athena’s redemption notice
deadline, Athena agrees to make all necessary disclosures (if any) at least 24 hours prior to Athena’s redemption notice deadline
to ensure that Seller is not in possession of material non-public information as a result of the transactions outlined herein.



 


		(j)	Listing. Athena and following the closing of the Business Combination, TopCo, agree to use their best efforts to maintain
the listing of the relevant Shares on a national securities exchange; provided that if the Shares cease to be listed on a national securities
exchange or upon the filing of a Form 25 Seller may terminate this agreement and shall be entitled to the Break-up Fees, which shall be
due and payable immediately following the occurrence of the termination of this agreement.



 


		(k)	Regulatory Filings. Counterparty covenants that it will make all regulatory filings that it is required by law or regulation
to make with respect to the Transaction including, without limitation, as may be required by Section 13 or Section 16 under the Exchange
Act and, assuming the accuracy of Counterparty’s Repurchase Notices (as described under “Repurchase Notices” below)
any sales of Subject Shares will be in compliance therewith.



 


		3.	Seller agrees with Athena and TopCo that it will not effect any Short Sales in respect of the Shares prior

200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, whether or not against the box, and all types of direct and indirect stock
pledges, forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, short sales, swaps, “put equivalent positions” (as defined in Rule
16a-1(h) under the Exchange Act) and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis).

(a) an extension of outside date and exclusivity until June 30, 2023, (b) the elimination of (i) any minimum cash condition other than
coverage of transaction expenses and (ii) other closing conditions of the Target save for the reps and warranties and covenants which

Transactions by Seller in the Shares


 


		(a)	Seller hereby waives the redemption rights (“Redemption Rights”) set forth in the applicable
provisions of Athena’s certificate of incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) in connection with the
Business Combination with respect to Shares it acquires from third parties and identifies on the Pricing Notice (each, a “Third
Party Shareholder”) who have redeemed Shares or indicated an interest in redeeming Shares pursuant to the Redemption Rights
during the period (the “Hedging Period”) beginning on the date of execution of this Agreement and ending at the time
reversals of redemptions in connection with the Business Combination are no longer permitted (the Shares so acquired, the “Subject
Shares”), except as required to not exceed the Excess Ownership Position. Following such date, Seller shall notify Counterparty
of the number of Subject Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, Seller may sell or otherwise transfer, loan or dispose of any of the Subject
Shares or any other shares or securities of the Counterparty in one or more public or private transactions at any time. Any Subject Shares
sold by Seller during the term of the Transaction will cease to be Subject Shares.



 


		(b)	Seller will give written notice to Counterparty of any sale of Subject Shares by Seller within one (1)
Local Business Day following the date of such sale, such notice to include the date of the sale and the number of Subject Shares sold.



 


		(c)	Athena hereby waives the applicable provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation with respect to the
Subject Shares (or any other shares of Athena held by Seller or any of its affiliates) provided that such Subject Shares shall not be
permitted to be redeemed by Seller during the term of this Agreement to the extent set forth in Section (a) above. Notwithstanding anything
to the contrary set forth herein, the waiver set forth in this paragraph (c) shall survive any termination or expiration of this Confirmation.



 


No Arrangements


 


Seller, Athena and TopCo each acknowledge and agree
that: (i) there are no voting, hedging or settlement arrangements between Seller, Athena and TopCo with respect to any Shares, other than
those set forth herein; (ii) although Seller may hedge its risk under the Transaction in any way Seller determines, Seller has no obligation
to hedge with the purchase or maintenance of any Shares or otherwise; (iii) Athena nor TopCo will be entitled to any voting rights in
respect of any of the Shares underlying the Transaction; and (iv) Athena nor TopCo will seek to influence Seller with respect to the voting
of any Hedge Positions of Seller consisting of Shares.


 


Wall Street Transparency and Accountability
Act


 


In connection with Section 739 of the Wall Street
Transparency and Accountability Act of 2010 (“WSTAA”), the parties hereby agree that neither the enactment of WSTAA
or any regulation under WSTAA, nor any requirement under WSTAA or an amendment made by WSTAA, nor any similar legal certainty provision
in any legislation enacted, or rule or regulation promulgated, on or after the date of this Confirmation, shall limit or otherwise impair
either party’s otherwise applicable rights to terminate, renegotiate, modify, amend or supplement this Confirmation or the ISDA

under this Confirmation, the Equity Definitions incorporated herein, or the ISDA Form.

Other Provisions.


 


		(a)	Rule 10b5-1.



 


		(i)	Athena represents and warrants to Seller that Athena is not entering into the Transaction to create actual
or apparent trading activity in the Shares (or any security convertible into or exchangeable for the Shares) or to raise or depress or
otherwise manipulate the price of the Shares (or any security convertible into or exchangeable for the Shares) for the purpose of inducing
the purchase or sale of such securities or otherwise in violation of the Exchange Act, and Athena represents and warrants to Seller that
Athena has not entered into or altered, and agrees that Athena will not enter into or alter, any corresponding or hedging transaction
or position with respect to the Shares. Athena acknowledges that it is the intent of the parties that the Transaction comply with the
requirements of paragraphs (c)(1)(i)(A) and (B) of Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act (“Rule 10b5-1”) and the Transaction
shall be interpreted to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c).



 


		(ii)	Athena, and following the closing of the Business Combination, TopCo, agrees that it will not seek to
control or influence Seller’s decision to make any “purchases or sales” (within the meaning of Rule 10b5-1(c)(1)(i)(B)(3))
under the Transaction, including, without limitation, Seller’s decision to enter into any hedging transactions. Athena represents
and warrants that it has consulted with its own advisors as to the legal aspects of its adoption and implementation of this Confirmation
and the Transaction under Rule 10b5-1.



 






    15


     


    

 


		(iii)	Athena, and following the closing of the Business Combination, TopCo, acknowledges and agrees that any
amendment, modification, waiver or termination of this Confirmation must be effected in accordance with the requirements for the amendment
or termination of a “plan” as defined in Rule 10b5-1(c). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Athena, and following
the closing of the Business Combination, TopCo, acknowledges and agrees that any such amendment, modification, waiver or termination shall
be made in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade the prohibitions of Rule 10b-5, and no such amendment, modification
or waiver shall be made at any time at which Athena, or following the closing of the Business Combination, TopCo, , or any officer, director,
manager or similar person of Athena or following the closing of the Business Combination, TopCo, is aware of any material non-public information
regarding Counterparty or the Shares.



 


		(b)	Repurchase Notices. Counterparty shall, on any day on which Counterparty effects any repurchase
of Shares, promptly give Seller a written notice of such repurchase (a “Repurchase Notice”); provided that Athena and
following the closing of the Business Combination, TopCo, each agree that this information does not constitute material non-public information;
provided further if this information shall be material non-public information, it shall publicly disclosed immediately. Athena, and following
the closing of the Business Combination, TopCo, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Seller and its affiliates and their respective officers,
directors, employees, affiliates, advisors, agents and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and
against any and all losses (including losses relating to Seller’s hedging activities as a consequence of remaining or becoming a
Section 16 “insider” following the closing of the Business Combination, including without limitation, any forbearance from
hedging activities or cessation of hedging activities and any losses in connection therewith with respect to the Transaction), claims,
damages, judgments, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees), joint or several, which an Indemnified Person
may become subject to, as a result of Counterparty’s failure to provide Seller with a Repurchase Notice on the day and in the manner
specified in this paragraph, and to reimburse, within thirty (30) days, upon written request, each of such Indemnified Persons for any
reasonable legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing for, providing testimony or other evidence in
connection with or defending any of the foregoing; provided, however, for the avoidance of doubt, Counterparty has no indemnification
or other obligations with respect to Seller becoming a Section 16 “insider” prior to the closing of the Business Combination.
If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or asserted
against the Indemnified Person as a result of Counterparty’s failure to provide Seller with a Repurchase Notice in accordance with
this paragraph, such Indemnified Person shall promptly notify Counterparty in writing, and Counterparty, upon request of the Indemnified
Person, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent the Indemnified Person and any others Counterparty
may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding. Counterparty shall not
be liable for any settlement of any proceeding contemplated by this paragraph that is effected without its written consent, but if settled
with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, Athena, and following the closing of the Business Combination, TopCo,
agrees to indemnify any Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Counterparty
shall not, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding
contemplated by this paragraph that is in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have been a party and indemnity could have
been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person
from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding on terms reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person.
If the indemnification provided for in this paragraph is unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient in respect of any losses,
claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then Counterparty hereunder, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities.
The remedies provided for in this paragraph are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available
to any Indemnified Person at law or in equity. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this paragraph shall remain operative
and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of the Transaction.



 






    16


     


    

 


		(c)	Transfer or Assignment. The Seller may freely transfer or assign the rights and duties under
this Confirmation, and Seller, Athena and Target will attempt to assign and novate their respective rights and obligations hereunder to
one or more unaffiliated third parties such that Seller’s Section 16 Percentage does not exceed 9.9% on a post-Business Combination
basis. If at any time following the closing of the Business Combination at which (A) the Section 16 Percentage exceeds 9.9%, or (B) the
Share Amount exceeds the Applicable Share Limit (if any applies) (any such condition described in clause (A) or (B), an “Excess
Ownership Position”), Seller is unable to effect a transfer or assignment of a portion of the Transaction to a third party on
pricing terms reasonably acceptable to Seller and within a time period reasonably acceptable to Seller such that no Excess Ownership Position
exists, then Seller may designate any Exchange Business Day as an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion of the Transaction
(the “Terminated Portion”), such that following such partial termination no Excess Ownership Position exists. In the
event that Seller so designates an Early Termination Date with respect to a portion of the Transaction, a portion of the Shares with respect
to the Transaction shall be delivered to Counterparty as if the Early Termination Date was the Valuation Date in respect of a Transaction
having terms identical to the Transaction and a Number of Shares equal to the number of Shares underlying the Terminated Portion. The
“Section 16 Percentage” as of any day is the fraction, expressed as a percentage, as determined by Seller, (A) the
numerator of which is the number of Shares that Seller and each person subject to aggregation of Shares with Seller under Section 13 or
Section 16 of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder and all persons who may form a “group” (within the meaning
of Rule 13d-5(b)(1) of the Exchange Act) with Seller directly or indirectly beneficially own (as defined under Section 13 or Section 16
of the Exchange Act and rules promulgated thereunder) (the “Seller Group” ) and (B) the denominator of which is the
number of Shares outstanding.



 


The “Share Amount” as of any day
is the number of Shares that Seller and any person whose ownership position would be aggregated with that of Seller and any group (however
designated) of which Seller is a member (Seller or any such person or group, a “Seller Person”) under any law, rule,
regulation, regulatory order or organizational documents or contracts of Counterparty that are, in each case, applicable to ownership
of Shares (“Applicable Restrictions”), owns, beneficially owns, constructively owns, controls, holds the power to vote
or otherwise meets a relevant definition of ownership under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Seller in its sole discretion.


 


The “Applicable Share Limit” means
a number of Shares equal to (A) the minimum number of Shares that could give rise to reporting or registration obligations or other requirements
(including obtaining prior approval from any person or entity) of a Seller Person, or could result in an adverse effect on a Seller Person,
under any Applicable Restriction, as determined by Seller in its sole discretion, minus (B) 0.1% of the number of Shares outstanding.


 


		(d)	Indemnification. Athena, and following the closing of the Business Combination, TopCo, agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless Seller, its affiliates and its assignees and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and
controlling persons (each such person being an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all losses (but not including
financial losses to an Indemnified Party relating to the economic terms of the Transaction provided that the Counterparty performs its
obligations under this Confirmation in accordance with its terms), claims, damages and liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), joint
or several, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party arising out of, in connection with, or relating to, the execution or
delivery of this Confirmation, the performance by Counterparty of its obligations under the Transaction, any breach of any covenant or
representation made by Counterparty in this Confirmation or the ISDA Form, regulatory filings made by Counterparty related to the Transaction
(other than as relates to any information provided by or on behalf of Seller or its affiliates), or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby; provided, however, that Counterparty has no indemnification obligations with respect to any loss, claim, damage,
liability or expense related to the manner in which Seller sells, or arising out of any sales by Seller of, the Subject Shares or any
other Shares owned by Seller. Counterparty will not be liable under the foregoing indemnification provision to the extent that any loss,
claim, damage, liability or expense is found in a nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from Seller’s
material breach of any covenant, representation or other obligation in this Confirmation or the ISDA Form or from Seller’s willful
misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith in performing the services that are subject of the Transaction. If for any reason the foregoing
indemnification is unavailable to any Indemnified Party or insufficient to hold harmless any Indemnified Party, then Counterparty shall
contribute, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim,
damage or liability. In addition (and in addition to any other Reimbursement of Legal Fees and other Expenses contemplated by this Confirmation),
Counterparty will reimburse any Indemnified Party for all reasonable, out-of-pocket, expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses)
as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation for or defense or settlement of any pending or threatened claim
or any action, suit or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto and whether or not such
claim, action, suit or proceeding is initiated or brought by or on behalf of Counterparty. Athena, and following the closing of the Business
Combination, TopCo, also agrees that no Indemnified Party shall have any liability to Counterparty or any person asserting claims on behalf
of or in right of Counterparty in connection with or as a result of any matter referred to in this Confirmation except to the extent that
any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses incurred by Counterparty result from such Indemnified Party’s breach of any
covenant, representation or other obligation in this Confirmation or the ISDA Form or from the gross negligence, willful misconduct or
bad faith of the Indemnified Party or breach of any U.S. federal or state securities laws or the rules, regulations or applicable interpretations
of the Securities and Exchange Commission. The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the completion of the Transaction contemplated
by this Confirmation and any assignment and/or delegation of the Transaction made pursuant to the ISDA Form or this Confirmation shall
inure to the benefit of any permitted assignee of Seller.

any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any suit, action or proceeding relating to the Transaction. Each party (i) certifies
that no representative, agent or attorney of either party has represented, expressly or otherwise, that such other party would not, in
the event of such a suit, action or proceeding, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (ii) acknowledges that it and the other party
have been induced to enter into the Transaction, as applicable, by, among other things, the mutual waivers and certifications provided
herein.



 


		(g)	Attorney and Other Fees. In the event of any legal action initiated by any party arising
under or out of, in connection with or in respect of, this Confirmation or the Transaction, the prevailing party shall be entitled to
reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses incurred in such action, as determined and fixed by the court.



 


		(h)	Tax Disclosure. Effective from the date of commencement of discussions concerning the Transaction,
Counterparty and each of its employees, representatives, or other agents may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any

that are provided to Counterparty relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.



 


		(i)	Securities Contract; Swap Agreement. The parties hereto intend for (i) the Transaction to
be (a) a “securities contract” as defined in the Bankruptcy Code, in which case each payment and delivery made pursuant to
the Transaction is a “termination value,” “payment amount” or “other transfer obligation” within the
meaning of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and a “settlement payment,” within the meaning of Section 546 of the Bankruptcy
Code, and (b) a “swap agreement” as defined in the Bankruptcy Code, with respect to which each payment and delivery hereunder
or in connection herewith is a “termination value,” “payment amount” or “other transfer obligation”
within the meaning of Section 362 of the Bankruptcy Code and a “transfer,” as such term is defined in Section 101(54) of the
Bankruptcy Code and a “payment or other transfer of property” within the meaning of Sections 362 and 546 of the Bankruptcy
Code, and the parties hereto to be entitled to the protections afforded by, among other Sections, Sections 362(b)(6), 362(b)(17), 546(e),

any other remedies upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under the ISDA Form with respect to the other party to constitute a “contractual
right” as described in the Bankruptcy Code, and (iii) each payment and delivery of cash, securities or other property hereunder
to otherwise constitute a “margin payment” or “settlement payment” and a “transfer” as defined in
the Bankruptcy Code.
