Re:   Initial Public
Offering


 


Gentlemen:


 


This letter (this
“Letter Agreement”) is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting
Agreement”) entered into by and among Double Eagle Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”),
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as representatives of the several underwriters
(the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “Public Offering”),
of 55,200,000 of the Company’s units (including up to 7,200,000 Units that may be purchased to cover over-allotments, if
any, the “Units”), each comprised of one of the Company’s Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001
per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), and one warrant (each, a “Warrant”). Each
Warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-half of one Ordinary Share at a price of $5.75 per half share, subject
to adjustment. The Units shall be sold in the Public Offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 and prospectus (the
“Prospectus”) filed by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”)
and the Company shall apply to have the Units listed on the Nasdaq Capital Market. Certain capitalized terms used herein are
defined in paragraph 10 hereof.


 


In
order to induce the Company and the Underwriters to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the Public Offering
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby
agrees with the Company as follows:


 


1.
 The undersigned agrees that if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a proposed initial Business Combination, then in
connection with such proposed initial Business Combination, he or she shall vote all the Founder Shares owned by him or her any
shares acquired by him or her in the Public Offering or the secondary public market in favor of such proposed initial Business
Combination and not redeem any Ordinary Shares owned by the undersigned in connection with such shareholder approval.


 


2.
 The undersigned hereby agrees that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 24 months
from the closing of the Public Offering (or such later period approved by the Company’s shareholders in accordance with the
Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association), he or she shall take all reasonable steps to cause
the Company to (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more
than 10 business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Ordinary Shares sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering (the
“Offering Shares”), at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit
in the Trust Account, including interest (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) less income taxes payable,
divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Shareholders’
rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and
(iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders
and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under
Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. The undersigned agrees that
he or she will not propose any amendment to the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association that
would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if the Company does
not complete a Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering unless the Company provides its public
shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Ordinary Shares upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable
in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest, less income taxes payable, divided
by the number of then outstanding public shares.


   




     


     

    

 


The
undersigned acknowledges that he or she has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust
Account or any other asset of the Company as a result of any liquidation of the Company with respect to the Founder Shares. The
undersigned hereby further waives, with respect to any Ordinary Shares held by him or her, any redemption rights he or she may
have in connection with the consummation by the Company of its initial Business Combination, including, without limitation, any
such rights available in the context of a shareholder vote to approve such Business Combination or in the context of a tender offer
made by the Company to purchase Ordinary Shares (although the undersigned shall be entitled to redemption and liquidation rights
with respect to any Ordinary Shares (other than the Founder Shares) he or she holds if the Company fails to consummate a Business
Combination within 24 months from the date of the closing of the Public Offering.


 


3.  During
the period commencing on the effective date of the Underwriting Agreement and ending 180 days after such date, the undersigned
shall not, without the prior written consent of Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated
(i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or
agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call
equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations
of the Commission promulgated thereunder, with respect to any Units, Ordinary Shares, Warrants or any securities convertible into,
or exercisable, or exchangeable for, Ordinary Shares owned by him or her, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers
to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Units, Ordinary Shares, Warrants or any securities
convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, Ordinary Shares owned by him or her, whether any such transaction is to
be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction,
including the filing of a registration statement, specified in clause (i) or (ii). Each of the undersigned acknowledges and agrees
that, prior to the effective date of any release or waiver, of the restrictions set forth in this paragraph 3 or paragraph 5 below,
the Company shall announce the impending release or waiver by press release through a major news service at least two business
days before the effective date of the release or waiver. Any release or waiver granted shall only be effective two business days
after the publication date of such press release. The provisions of this paragraph will not apply if the release or waiver is effected
solely to permit a transfer not for consideration and the transferee has agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described
in this Letter Agreement to the extent and for the duration that such terms remain in effect at the time of the transfer.


 


4.
To the extent that the Underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 7,200,000 Ordinary
Shares within 45 days from the date of the Prospectus (as further described in the Prospectus), the undersigned agrees that he
shall automatically surrender to the Company for no consideration, for cancellation at no cost, an aggregate number of Founder
Shares equal to 3,683 multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is 7,200,000 minus the number of Ordinary Shares purchased
by the Underwriters upon the exercise of their over-allotment option, and (ii) the denominator of which is 7,200,000. The surrender
for no consideration will be adjusted to the extent that the over-allotment option is not exercised in full by the Underwriters
so that the pre-offering shareholders will own, on an as-converted basis, an aggregate of 20.0% of the Company’s issued and
outstanding Capital Shares after the Public Offering. The undersigned further agrees that to the extent that the size of the Public
Offering is increased or decreased, the Company will purchase or sell Ordinary Shares or effect a share repurchase or share capitalization,
as applicable, immediately prior to the consummation of the Public Offering in such amount as to maintain the ownership of the
pre-offering shareholders prior to the Public Offering, on an as-converted basis, at 20.0% of its issued and outstanding Capital
Shares upon the consummation of the Public Offering. In connection with such increase or decrease in the size of the Public Offering,
then (A) the references to 7,200,000 in the numerator and denominator of the formula in the first sentence of this paragraph shall
be changed to a number equal to 15% of the number of Ordinary Shares included in the Units issued in the Public Offering and (B)
the reference to 3,683 in the formula set forth in the first sentence of this paragraph shall be adjusted to such number of Founder
Shares that the undersigned would have to collectively return to the Company in order to hold, on an as-converted basis, an aggregate
of 0.04092% of the Company’s issued and outstanding Capital Shares after the Public Offering.


 


5.
(a) The undersigned agrees that he or she shall not Transfer any Founder Shares until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion
of a Business Combination or earlier if, subsequent to a Business Combination, the closing price of the Ordinary Share equals or
exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for share splits, share capitalizations, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like)
for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination and (B) the
date following the completion of a Business Combination on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, share exchange or
other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares
for cash, securities or other property (the “Founder Shares Lock-up Period”).


 




    	 	2	 



     

    

 


(b)
The undersigned agrees that he shall not effectuate any Transfer of Private Placement Warrants or Ordinary Shares underlying such
warrants, until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination.


  


(c)
Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in paragraphs 3, 5(a) and 5(b), Transfers of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants
and Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Placement Warrants are permitted to (a) any the Company’s officers or directors,
any affiliates or family members of any of the Company’s officers or directors, any members of the Sponsor (as defined below)
or any affiliates of the Sponsor (b) by gift to a member of one of the members of the undersigned’s immediate family or to
a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of one of the undersigned’s immediate family, an affiliate of such person or
to a charitable organization; (c) by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the undersigned; (d) pursuant to
a qualified domestic relations order; (e) by private sales or transfers made in connection with the consummation of a Business
Combination at prices no greater than the price at which the shares were originally purchased; (f) by virtue of the limited liability
company agreement of the Sponsor upon dissolution of the Sponsor; (g) in the event of the Company’s liquidation prior to
the completion of a Business Combination; or (h) in the event of completion of a liquidation, merger, share exchange or other similar
transaction which results in all of the Company’s shareholders having the right to exchange their Ordinary Shares for cash,
securities or other property subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination; provided, however, that in the
case of clauses (a) through (f) these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement agreeing to be bound by these transfer
restrictions.

held in the Trust Account prior to the completion of a Business Combination: repayment of a loan of up to $200,000 made to the
Company by Double Eagle Acquisition LLC (the “Sponsor”), pursuant to a Promissory Note dated July 1,
2015; reimbursement for office space, secretarial and administrative services provided to members of the Company’s management

repayment.
