This Investment Management
Trust Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made effective as of ____, 2020 by and between Mudrick Capital
Acquisition Corporation II, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Continental Stock Transfer &
Trust Company, a New York corporation (the “Trustee”).


 


WHEREAS, the Company’s
registration statement on Form S-1, File No. 333-249042 (the “Registration Statement”) and
prospectus (the “Prospectus”) for the initial public offering of the Company’s units (the “Units”),
each of which consists of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common
Stock”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant, each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one
share of Common Stock (such initial public offering hereinafter referred to as the “Offering”), has been
declared effective as of the date hereof by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; and


 


WHEREAS, the Company
has entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Jefferies LLC, as representative
(the “Representative”) of the several underwriters (the “Underwriters”) named
therein; and


 


WHEREAS, as described
in the Prospectus, $250,000,000 of the gross proceeds of the Offering and sale of the Private Placement Warrants (as defined in
the Underwriting Agreement) (or $287,500,000 if the Underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full) will be delivered
to the Trustee to be deposited and held in a segregated trust account located at all times in the United States (the “Trust
Account”) for the benefit of the Company and the holders of the Common Stock included in the Units issued in the
Offering as hereinafter provided (the amount to be delivered to the Trustee (and any interest subsequently earned thereon) is referred
to herein as the “Property,” the stockholders for whose benefit the Trustee shall hold the Property will
be referred to as the “Public Stockholders,” and the Public Stockholders and the Company will be referred
to together as the “Beneficiaries”); and


 


WHEREAS, pursuant to
the Underwriting Agreement, a portion of the Property equal to $8,750,000, or $10,062,500 if the Underwriters’ over-allotment
option is exercised in full, is attributable to deferred underwriting discounts and commissions that will be payable by the Company
to the Underwriters upon and concurrently with the consummation of the Business Combination (as defined below) (the “Deferred
Discount”); and


 


WHEREAS, the Company
and the Trustee desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions pursuant to which the Trustee shall hold
the Property.


 


NOW THEREFORE, IT
IS AGREED:


 


1. Agreements and
Covenants of Trustee. The Trustee hereby agrees and covenants to:


 


(a) Hold the Property
in trust for the Beneficiaries in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in the Trust Account established by the Trustee in
the United States at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. (or at another U.S.-chartered commercial bank with consolidated assets of $100
billion or more), and at a brokerage institution selected by the Trustee that is reasonably satisfactory to the Company;


 


(b) Manage, supervise
and administer the Trust Account subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein;


 


(c) In a timely
manner, upon the written instruction of the Company, invest and reinvest the Property in United States government securities within
the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, having a maturity of 185 days or less,
or in money market funds meeting the conditions of paragraphs (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) of Rule 2a-7 promulgated
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (or any successor rule), which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury
obligations, as determined by the Company; the Trustee may not invest in any other securities or assets, it being understood that
the Trust Account will earn no interest while account funds are uninvested awaiting the Company’s instructions hereunder
and the Trustee may earn bank credits or other consideration;


 



    


     


    

 


(d) Collect and
receive, when due, all interest or other income arising from the Property, which shall become part of the “Property,”
as such term is used herein;


 


(e) Promptly notify
the Company and the Representative of all communications received by the Trustee with respect to any Property requiring action
by the Company;


 


(f) Supply any necessary
information or documents as may be requested by the Company (or its authorized agents) in connection with the Company’s preparation
of the tax returns relating to assets held in the Trust Account;


 


(g) Participate
in any plan or proceeding for protecting or enforcing any right or interest arising from the Property if, as and when instructed
by the Company to do so;


 


(h) Render to the
Company monthly written statements of the activities of, and amounts in, the Trust Account reflecting all receipts and disbursements
of the Trust Account;


 


(i) Commence liquidation
of the Trust Account only after and promptly after (x) receipt of, and only in accordance with, the terms of a letter from
the Company (“Termination Letter”) in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as either
Exhibit A or Exhibit B, as applicable, signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer,
Chief Financial Officer, Secretary or Chairman of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”)
or other authorized officer of the Company and, in the case of Exhibit A, acknowledged and agreed to by the Representative,
and complete the liquidation of the Trust Account and distribute the Property in the Trust Account, including interest earned on
the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest
to pay dissolution expenses), only as directed in the Termination Letter and the other documents referred to therein, or (y) upon
the date which is the later of (i) 21 months after the closing of the Offering and (ii) such later date as may be approved
by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, if
a Termination Letter has not been received by the Trustee prior to such date, in which case the Trust Account shall be liquidated
in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Termination Letter attached as Exhibit B and the Property in the
Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay
its taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) shall be distributed to the Public Stockholders of record
as of such date;


 


(j) Upon written
request from the Company, which may be given from time to time in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit C,
withdraw from the Trust Account and distribute to the Company the amount of interest earned on the Property requested by the Company
to cover any tax obligation owed by the Company as a result of assets of the Company or interest or other income earned on the
Property, which amount shall be delivered directly to the Company by electronic funds transfer or other method of prompt payment,
and the Company shall forward such payment to the relevant taxing authority; provided, however, that to the extent
there is not sufficient cash in the Trust Account to pay such tax obligation, the Trustee shall liquidate such assets held in the
Trust Account as shall be designated by the Company in writing to make such distribution so long as there is no reduction in the
principal amount initially deposited in the Trust Account; provided, further, that if the tax to be paid is a franchise
tax, the written request by the Company to make such distribution shall be accompanied by a copy of the franchise tax bill from
the State of Delaware for the Company. The written request of the Company in the form of Exhibit C referenced above
shall constitute presumptive evidence that the Company is entitled to said funds, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility
to look beyond said request (it being acknowledged and agreed that any such amount in excess of interest income earned on the Property
shall not be payable from the Trust Account);


 


(k) Upon written
request from the Company, which may be given from time to time in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit D,
the Trustee shall distribute to the Public Stockholders of record as of such date the amount requested by the Company to be used
to redeem shares of Common Stock from Public Stockholders properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an
amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (a) to modify the substance or timing of
the Company’s obligation to provide for the redemption of its public shares of Common Stock in connection with an initial
Business Combination or to redeem 100% of such shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within
such time as is described in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or (b) with respect to
any other material provisions relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity. The written
request of the Company referenced above shall constitute presumptive evidence that the Company is entitled to distribute said funds,
and the Trustee shall have no responsibility to look beyond said request; and


 






    2


     


    

 


(l) Not make any
withdrawals or distributions from the Trust Account other than pursuant to Section 1(i), (j) or (k) above.


 


2. Agreements and
Covenants of the Company. The Company hereby agrees and covenants to:


 


(a) Give all instructions
to the Trustee hereunder in writing, signed by the Company’s Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial
Officer or Secretary. In addition, except with respect to its duties under Sections 1(i), 1(j) and 1(k) hereof,
the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, any verbal or telephonic advice or instruction
which it, in good faith and with reasonable care, believes to be given by any one of the persons authorized above to give written
instructions, provided that the Company shall promptly confirm such instructions in writing;


 


(b) Subject to Section 4
hereof, hold the Trustee harmless and indemnify the Trustee from and against any and all expenses, including reasonable counsel
fees and disbursements, or losses suffered by the Trustee in connection with any action taken by it hereunder and in connection
with any action, suit or other proceeding brought against the Trustee involving any claim, or in connection with any claim or demand,
which in any way arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the services of the Trustee hereunder, or the Property or any interest
earned on the Property, except for expenses and losses resulting from the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct.
Promptly after the receipt by the Trustee of notice of demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, pursuant
to which the Trustee intends to seek indemnification under this Section 2(b), it shall notify the Company in writing
of such claim (hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnified Claim”). The Trustee shall have the right
to conduct and manage the defense against such Indemnified Claim; provided that the Trustee shall obtain the consent of
the Company with respect to the selection of counsel, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Trustee
may not agree to settle any Indemnified Claim without the prior written consent of the Company, which such consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Company may participate in such action with its own counsel;


 


(c) Pay the Trustee
the fees set forth on Schedule A hereto, including an initial acceptance fee, annual administration fee, and transaction
processing fee which fees shall be subject to modification by the parties from time to time. It is expressly understood that the
Property shall not be used to pay such fees unless and until the consummation of the Business Combination (as defined below). The
Company shall pay the Trustee the initial acceptance fee and the first annual administration fee at the consummation of the Offering.
The Trustee shall refund to the Company the annual administration fee (on a pro rata basis) with respect to any period after the
liquidation of the Trust Account. The Company shall not be responsible for any other fees or charges of the Trustee except as set
forth in this Section 2(c), Schedule A and as may be provided in Section 2(b) hereof;


 


(d) In connection
with any vote of the Company’s stockholders regarding a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase,
reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”),
provide to the Trustee an affidavit or certificate of the inspector of elections for the stockholder meeting verifying the vote
of such stockholders regarding such Business Combination;


 


(e) Provide the
Representative with a copy of any Termination Letter(s) and/or any other correspondence that is sent to the Trustee with respect
to any proposed withdrawal from the Trust Account promptly after it issues the same;


 


(f) Unless otherwise
agreed between the Company and the Representative, ensure that any Instruction Letter (as defined in Exhibit A) delivered
in connection with a Termination Letter in the form of Exhibit A expressly provides that the Deferred Discount is paid
directly to the account or accounts directed by the Representative on behalf of the Underwriters prior to any transfer of the funds
held in the Trust Account to the Company or any other person;


 






    3


     


    

 


(g) Instruct
the Trustee to make only those distributions that are permitted under this Agreement, and refrain from instructing the Trustee
to make any distributions that are not permitted under this Agreement; and


 


(h) Within four
(4) business days after the Underwriters exercise the over-allotment option (or any unexercised portion thereof) or such over-allotment
option expires, provide the Trustee with a notice in writing of the total amount of the Deferred Discount, which shall in no event
be less than $8,750,000.


 


3. Limitations of
Liability. The Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability to:


 


(a) Imply obligations,
perform duties, inquire or otherwise be subject to the provisions of any agreement or document other than this Agreement and that
which is expressly set forth herein;


 


(b) Take any action
with respect to the Property, other than as directed in Section 1 hereof, and the Trustee shall have no liability to
any third party except for liability arising out of the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct;


 


(c) Institute any
proceeding for the collection of any principal and income arising from, or institute, appear in or defend any proceeding of any
kind with respect to, any of the Property unless and until it shall have received instructions from the Company given as provided
herein to do so and the Company shall have advanced or guaranteed to it funds sufficient to pay any expenses incident thereto;


 


(d) Refund any depreciation
in principal of any Property;


 


(e) Assume that
the authority of any person designated by the Company to give instructions hereunder shall not be continuing unless provided otherwise
in such designation, or unless the Company shall have delivered a written revocation of such authority to the Trustee;


 


(f) The other parties
hereto or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in good faith
and in the Trustee’s reasonable best judgment, except for the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct.
The Trustee may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice
of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Trustee, which counsel may be the Company’s counsel), statement, instrument,
report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also
as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained) which the Trustee believes, in good faith and with reasonable
care, to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Trustee shall not be bound by any notice
or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement or any of the terms hereof, unless evidenced
by a written instrument delivered to the Trustee, signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Trustee
are affected, unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto;


 


(g) Verify the accuracy

to, the Trust Account, regardless of whether such tax is payable by the Trust Account or the Company, including, but not limited
to, franchise and income tax obligations, except pursuant to Section 1(j) hereof; or


 






    4


     


    

 


(k) Verify calculations,
qualify or otherwise approve the Company’s written requests for distributions pursuant to Sections 1(i), 1(j) and
1(k) hereof.


 


4. Trust Account
Waiver. The Trustee has no right of set-off or any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”)
to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account, and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account
that it may have now or in the future. In the event the Trustee has any Claim against the Company under this Agreement, including,
without limitation, under Section 2(b) or Section 2(c) hereof, the Trustee shall pursue such
Claim solely against the Company and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the Property or any monies in the Trust
Account.


 


5. Termination.
This Agreement shall terminate as follows:


 


(a) If the Trustee
gives written notice to the Company that it desires to resign under this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts
to locate a successor trustee, pending which the Trustee shall continue to act in accordance with this Agreement. At such time
that the Company notifies the Trustee that a successor trustee has been appointed and has agreed to become subject to the terms
of this Agreement, the Trustee shall transfer the management of the Trust Account to the successor trustee, including but not limited
to the transfer of copies of the reports and statements relating to the Trust Account, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate;
provided, however, that in the event that the Company does not locate a successor trustee within ninety (90) days
of receipt of the resignation notice from the Trustee, the Trustee may submit an application to have the Property deposited with
any court in the State of New York or with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and upon such
deposit, the Trustee shall be immune from any liability whatsoever; or


 


(b) At such time
that the Trustee has completed the liquidation of the Trust Account and its obligations in accordance with the provisions of Section 1(i) hereof
and distributed the Property in accordance with the provisions of the Termination Letter, this Agreement shall terminate except
with respect to Section 2(b).


 


6. Miscellaneous.


 


(a) The Company
and the Trustee each acknowledge that the Trustee will follow the security procedures set forth below with respect to funds transferred
from the Trust Account. The Company and the Trustee will each restrict access to confidential information relating to such security
procedures to authorized persons. Each party must notify the other party immediately if it has reason to believe unauthorized persons
may have obtained access to such confidential information, or of any change in its authorized personnel. In executing funds transfers,
the Trustee shall rely upon all information supplied to it by the Company, including, account names, account numbers, and all other
identifying information relating to a Beneficiary, Beneficiary’s bank or intermediary bank. Except for any liability arising
out of the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss, liability
or expense resulting from any error in the information or transmission of the funds.


 


(b) This Agreement
shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to
conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. This Agreement
may be executed in several original or facsimile counterparts, each one of which shall constitute an original, and together shall
constitute but one instrument.


 


(c) This Agreement
contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement
or any provision hereof may only be changed, amended or modified (other than to correct a typographical error) by a writing signed
by each of the parties hereto.


 






    5


     


    

 


(d) This Agreement
or any provision hereof may only be changed, amended or modified pursuant to Section 6(c) hereof with the Consent
of the Stockholders, it being the specific intention of the parties hereto that each of the Company’s stockholders is, and
shall be, a third party beneficiary of this Section 6(d) with the same right and power to enforce this Section 6(d) as
the other parties hereto. For purposes of this Section 6(d), the “Consent of the Stockholders”
means receipt by the Trustee of a certificate from the inspector of elections of the stockholder meeting certifying that either
(i) the Company’s stockholders of record as of a record date established in accordance with Section 213(a) of
the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (“DGCL”) (or any successor rule), who hold sixty-five
percent (65%) or more of all then outstanding shares of the Common Stock and Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share,
of the Company voting together as a single class, have voted in favor of such change, amendment or modification, or (ii) the
Company’s stockholders of record as of the record date who hold sixty-five percent (65%) or more of all then outstanding
shares of the Common Stock and Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company voting together as a single
class, have delivered to such entity a signed writing approving such change, amendment or modification. No such amendment will
affect any Public Stockholder who has otherwise indicated his election to redeem his shares of Common Stock in connection with
a stockholder vote sought to amend this Agreement (a) to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation
to provide for the redemption of its public shares of Common Stock in connection with an initial Business Combination or to redeem
100% of such shares if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within such time as is described in the
Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or (b) with respect to any other material provisions relating
to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity. Except for any liability arising out of the Trustee’s
gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, the Trustee may rely conclusively on the certification from the inspector or elections
referenced above and shall be relieved of all liability to any party for executing the proposed amendment in reliance thereon.


 


(e) The parties
hereto consent to the jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located in the City of New York, State of New York,
for purposes of resolving any disputes hereunder. AS TO ANY CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT,
EACH PARTY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.


 


(f) Any notice,
consent or request to be given in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing and shall
be sent by express mail or similar private courier service, by certified mail (return receipt requested), by hand delivery or by

Re: Trust Account No.           Termination
Letter


 


Gentlemen:


 


Pursuant to Section 1(i) of
the Investment Management Trust Agreement between Mudrick Capital Acquisition Corporation II (the “Company”)
and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trustee”), dated as of           ,
2020 (the “Trust Agreement”), this is to advise you that the Company has entered into an agreement with [insert
name] (the “Target Business”) to consummate a business combination with Target Business (the “Business
Combination”) on or about [insert date]. The Company shall notify you at least seventy-two (72) hours in advance
of the actual date of the consummation of the Business Combination (or such shorter time period as you may agree) (the “Consummation
Date”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Trust Agreement.


 


In accordance with
the terms of the Trust Agreement, we hereby authorize you to commence to liquidate all of the assets of the Trust Account and to
transfer the proceeds into a segregated account held by you on behalf of the Beneficiaries to the effect that, on the Consummation
Date, all of the funds held in the Trust Account will be immediately available for transfer to the account or accounts that the
Company shall direct on the Consummation Date (including as directed to it by the Representative on behalf of the Underwriters
(with respect to the Deferred Discount)). It is acknowledged and agreed that while the funds are on deposit in the trust operating
account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., awaiting distribution, the Company will not earn any interest or dividends.


 


On the Consummation
Date (i) counsel for the Company shall deliver to you written notification that the Business Combination has been consummated,
or will be consummated concurrently with your transfer of funds to the accounts as directed by the Company (the “Notification”)
and (ii) the Company shall deliver to you (a) [an affidavit] [a certificate] of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company,
which verifies that the Business Combination has been approved by a vote of the Company’s stockholders, if a vote is held
and (b) a joint written instruction signed by the Company and the Representative with respect to the transfer of the funds
held in the Trust Account, including payment of the Deferred Discount to the Representative from the Trust Account (the “Instruction
Letter”). You are hereby directed and authorized to transfer the funds held in the Trust Account immediately upon
your receipt of the Notification and the Instruction Letter, in accordance with the terms of the Instruction Letter. In the event
that certain deposits held in the Trust Account may not be liquidated by the Consummation Date without penalty, you will notify
the Company in writing of the same and the Company shall direct you as to whether such funds should remain in the Trust Account
and be distributed after the Consummation Date to the Company. Upon the distribution of all the funds, net of any payments necessary
for reasonable unreimbursed expenses related to liquidating the Trust Account, your obligations under the Trust Agreement shall
be terminated.


 


In the event that the
Business Combination is not consummated on the Consummation Date described in the notice thereof and we have not notified you on
or before the original Consummation Date of a new Consummation Date, then upon receipt by the Trustee of written instructions from
the Company, the funds held in the Trust Account shall be reinvested as provided in Section 1(c) of the Trust Agreement
on the business day immediately following the Consummation Date as set forth in such written instruction as soon thereafter as
possible.
