to purchase one Share at an exercise price of $11.50 per Share.

not and shall not as of the applicable Closing Date conflict with or result in a breach by the Purchaser of the terms, conditions
or provisions of any agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which the Purchaser is subject.


 


C. Investment
Representations.


 


(i)  The Purchaser
is acquiring the Private Placement Warrants and, upon exercise of the Private Placement 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 of 1933, as amended (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.


 


(iv)  The Purchaser
did not enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) 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) subsequently 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.  The Private Placement Warrants will bear a legend
and appropriate “stop transfer” instructions (or an appropriate notation if the warrants are issued in book entry form)
relating to the foregoing. The Purchaser further understands that the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”)
has taken the position that promoters or affiliates of a blank check company and their transferees, both before and after an initial
business combination, 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 until the one-year anniversary following consummation of an initial business combination despite
technical compliance with the requirements of such Rule.


 


(viii)  The Purchaser
has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, knows 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 investment in the Securities.
