WITNESSETH


 


WHEREAS, the Company is making an offer,
upon the terms and conditions set forth in its Offer to Exchange Letter (“Offer Letter”) and the related Letter
of Transmittal (which together constitute the “Offer”) which will be filed on the date hereof with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), to all holders of the Company’s issued and outstanding warrants exercisable
for shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), at an exercise price
of $11.50 per Share (the “Warrants”), to exchange during the Offer Period (as defined in the Offer Letter) 0.3333
Shares for every Warrant tendered, up to a maximum of 15,000,000 Warrants;


 


WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement,
the Warrantholder is the beneficial owner of the number of Warrants set forth opposite his name on Schedule 1 to this Agreement
(the “Currently Owned Warrants”); and


 


WHEREAS, as a condition to the Company’s
willingness to conduct the Offer, the Company has required that the Warrantholder agree, and the Warrantholder has agreed, to enter
into this Agreement and abide by the covenants and obligations set forth in this Agreement, including, without limitation, to validly
tender in the Offer all of the Currently Owned Warrants (and not withdraw from the Offer any such Currently Owned Warrants);


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the
premises and for other good and valuable consideration given to each party to this Agreement, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged,
the parties agree as follows:


 


1.           Agreement
to Tender.


 


(a)          The

Business Day following the commencement of the Offer, the Warrantholder shall tender into the Offer all of the Currently Owned
Warrants beneficially owned by the Warrantholder.


 


(b)          The
Warrantholder agrees that once Currently Owned Warrants are tendered into the Offer, without the prior written consent of the Company
in its sole discretion, he shall not, and shall not be permitted to, withdraw or cause to be withdrawn the tender of such Currently
Owned Warrants unless the Offer shall have been terminated.


 


2.           Representations

proxy or voting trust.

warranty of such Warrantholder contained in this Agreement to become untrue or incorrect or have the effect of preventing or disabling

actions.

(b)          Each
of the parties to this Agreement (a) irrevocably submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery (or
in the event, but only in the event, that such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such action or proceeding,
in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware) in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by
motion or other request for leave from any such court and (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement
or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the Delaware Court of Chancery (or in the event, but
only in the event, that such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over such action or proceeding, in the United States
District Court for the District of Delaware). The parties to this Agreement agree that a final judgment in any action or proceeding
brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided
by applicable Law. Each of the parties to this Agreement hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion,
as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (i) any claim that it is not
personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with
this Section 4.6, (ii) any claim that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal
process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution
of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise) and (iii) to the fullest extent permitted by the applicable Law, any claim that
(A) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding
is improper or (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter of this Agreement, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each of the
parties to this Agreement hereby consents to service being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 4.5 and agrees
that service of any process, summons, notice or document by registered mail (return receipt requested and first-class postage prepaid)
to the respective addresses set forth in Section 4.5 shall be effective service of process for any suit or proceeding in connection
with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The consents to jurisdiction set forth in this paragraph
shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of Delaware and shall have no effect for any purpose except
as provided in this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any person other than the parties to this Agreement.

(c)          EACH
PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY
IN RESPECT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR OTHER PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED BY THIS AGREEMENT.
EACH PARTY TO THIS AGREEMENT (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY
OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND
(B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT, BY, AMONG OTHER
THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 4.6(c).


 


4.7           Specific
Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the Company would not have any adequate remedy
at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed by the Warrantholder in accordance with their
specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Company shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions
to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement exclusively in the
Delaware Court of Chancery, or in the event (but only in the event) that such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction over
such action or proceeding, in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware, this being in addition to any other
remedy to which it is entitled at law or in equity. The parties further agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting
of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief.


 


4.8           No
Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned,
in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by any of the parties without the prior written consent of the other parties,
and any assignment without such consent shall be null and void. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding
upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Any purported assignment
not permitted under this Section 4.8 shall be null and void.

4.9           Counterparts;
Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same
agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the
other parties. This Agreement shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and
delivered to the other parties. Copies of executed counterparts transmitted by telecopy, telefax or electronic transmission shall
be considered original executed counterparts for purposes of this Section 4.9 provided that receipt of copies of such counterparts
is confirmed.


 


4.11         Severability.
If any term or other provision of this Agreement is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or incapable
of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other terms, provisions and conditions of this Agreement shall nevertheless
remain in full force and effect. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being
enforced, the parties to this Agreement shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent
of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in an acceptable manner to the end that
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are fulfilled to the extent possible.
