limited liability company (société anonyme), incorporated and organized under the laws of the Grand Duchy
of Luxembourg, having its registered office at 48, Boulevard Grande-Duchesse Charlotte, L-1330 Luxembourg, Grand Duchy of Luxembourg,
and registered with the Luxembourg Register of Commerce and Companies (Registre de Commerce et des Sociétés, Luxembourg)
under number B246188 (the “Company”), and the other parties thereto (the “Merger Agreement”)
and the other transactions relating thereto (the “Business Combination”) and hereby amends and restates
in its entirety that certain letter, dated June 26, 2019, from Churchill Sponsor II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(the “Sponsor”), and the undersigned individuals, each of whom is a member of the Acquiror’s board
of directors and/or management team (each, an “Insider” and collectively, the “Insiders”),
to the Acquiror (the “Prior Letter Agreement”). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in
paragraph 5 hereof. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed to such
terms in the Merger Agreement.


 


The Sponsor is currently, and as of the Closing will be, the
record owner of all of the outstanding Founder Shares and outstanding Private Placement Warrants, with the Sponsor’s ownership
as of the date hereof detailed on Schedule A hereto.


 


In order to induce the Company and Acquiror to enter into the
Merger Agreement and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
Sponsor and each Insider hereby agrees with the Acquiror and, at all times prior to any valid termination of the Merger Agreement,
the Company as follows:


 


1.      The Sponsor and each Insider irrevocably agrees that it, he or she shall:




 


		a.	vote any Common Stock and Founder Shares owned by it, him or her (all such common stock, the “Covered Shares”)
in favor of the Business Combination and each other proposal related to the Business Combination included on the agenda for the
special meeting of stockholders relating to the Business Combination and any other special meeting of Acquiror’s stockholders
called for the purpose of soliciting stockholder approval in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination (each
such meeting, a “Stockholders Meeting”);



 


		b.	when such Stockholders Meeting is held, appear at such meeting or otherwise cause the Covered Shares to be counted as present
thereat for the purpose of establishing a quorum;



 






    


    2


    

 


		c.	vote (or execute and return an action by written consent), or cause to be voted at such Stockholders Meeting, or validly execute
and return and cause such consent to be granted with respect to, all of such Covered Shares against any Business Combination Proposal
and any other action that would reasonably be expected to materially impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect
the Business Combination or any of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or result in a breach of any covenant,
representation or warranty or other obligation or agreement of Acquiror under the Merger Agreement or result in a breach of any
covenant, representation or warranty or other obligation or agreement of the Sponsor or the Insiders contained in this Sponsor
Agreement; and



 


		d.	not redeem any Covered Shares owned by it, him or her in connection with such stockholder approval.



 


Prior to any valid termination of the Merger Agreement, the
Sponsor and each Insider shall take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary
under Acquiror’s organizational documents and applicable Laws, or reasonably requested by Acquiror, to consummate the Business
Combination and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
therein.


 


The obligations of the Sponsor specified in this paragraph 1
shall apply whether or not the Business Combination or any action described above is recommended by the board of directors of the
Acquiror and whether or not the board of directors of the Acquiror has effected a Buyer Change in Recommendation.


 


2.     The
Sponsor and each Insider hereby agrees and acknowledges that: (i) Acquiror and, prior to any valid termination of the Merger
Agreement, the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by the Sponsor or any Insider of its, his or her obligations
under this Sponsor Agreement; (ii) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach; (iii) the non-breaching
party shall be entitled to seek an injunction, specific performance, or other equitable relief, to prevent breaches of this Sponsor
Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have
in law or in equity; and (iv) the right to seek specific enforcement is an integral part of the transactions contemplated
by this Sponsor Agreement and without that right, Acquiror and the Company would not have entered into this Sponsor Agreement.


 


3.     (a) The
Sponsor and each Insider agree that it, he or she shall not:


 


(i) Transfer any Founder Shares (or shares
of Common Stock issuable upon conversion thereof) until the earlier of (A) one year after the completion of the Business Combination
or (B) subsequent to the Business Combination, (x) if the closing price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $12.00
per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days
within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after the Business Combination or (y) the date on which the
Acquiror completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all
of the Acquiror’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities or other property
(the “Founder Shares Lock-up Period”); or


 


(ii) Transfer any Private Placement Warrants
(or shares of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of the Private Placement Warrants), until 30 days after the completion
of the Business Combination (the “Private Placement Warrants Lock-up Period”
and, together with the Founder Shares Lock-up Period, the “Lock-up Periods”).


 


(b) Notwithstanding the provisions
set forth in paragraphs 3(a)(i) and 3(a)(ii), Transfers of the Founder Shares, Private Placement Warrants and shares of Common
Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Private Placement Warrants or the Founder Shares and that are held
by the Sponsor, any Insider or any of their permitted transferees (that have complied with this paragraph 3(b)), are permitted
(A) to the Acquiror’s officers or directors, any affiliates or family members of any of the Acquiror’s officers
or directors, any members of the Sponsor, or any affiliates of the Sponsor; (B) in the case of an individual, transfers by
gift to a member of the individual’s immediate family, to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of the individual’s
immediate family or an affiliate of such person, or to a charitable organization; (C) in the case of an individual, transfers
by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of the individual; (D) in the case of an individual, transfers pursuant
to a qualified domestic relations order; (E) transfers 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 securities were originally purchased; provided, however,
that in the case of clauses (A) through (E), these permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement agreeing to be
bound by this Sponsor Agreement (x) prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, with the Acquiror and the Company
and (y) from and after the consummation of the Business Combination, with the Acquiror.

(c) The Sponsor and each Insider acknowledge
and agree as follows:


 


(i) Section 4.3(b)(i) of Acquiror’s
amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Acquiror Charter”) provides that each share of
Class B Common Stock shall automatically convert into one share of Class A Common Stock (the “Initial Conversion
Ratio”) at the time of the Business Combination, and (B) Section 4.3(b)(ii) of the Acquiror Charter
provides that the Initial Conversion Ratio shall be adjusted (the “Adjustment”) in the event that additional
shares of Common Stock are issued in excess of the amounts offered in Acquiror’s initial public offering of securities; and


 


(ii) as of and conditioned upon the Closing,
the Sponsor and each Insider hereby irrevocably relinquishes and waives any and all rights the Sponsor and each Insider has or
will have under Section 4.3(b)(ii) of the Acquiror Charter to receive shares of Common Stock in excess of the number
issuable at the Initial Conversion Ratio upon conversion of the existing shares of Class B Common Stock held by him, her or
it, as applicable, in connection with the Closing as a result of any Adjustment.


 


4.     The
Sponsor and each Insider has full right and power, without violating any agreement to which it is bound (including, without limitation,
any non-competition or non-solicitation agreement with any employer or former employer), to enter into this Sponsor Agreement.


 


5.      As
used herein, (i) “Beneficially Own” has the meaning ascribed to it in Section 13(d) of
the Securities Exchange Act; (ii) “Founder Shares” shall mean the shares of Class B common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of such shares in connection with the
Closing; (iii) “Private Placement Warrants” shall mean the warrants to purchase up to 15,800,000 shares
of Common Stock of the Acquiror that the Sponsor purchased in a private placement that shall occur simultaneously with the consummation
of the Public Offering; (iv) “Common Stock” shall mean the Acquiror’s Class A common
stock, par value $0.0001 per share; and (v) “Transfer” shall mean the (a) sale or assignment
of, offer to sell, contract or agreement to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant of any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of
or agreement to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establishment or increase of a put equivalent position or liquidation with
respect to or decrease of a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and the rules and
regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder with respect to, any security, (b) entry into any swap or other arrangement
that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any security, whether any such
transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise, or (c) public announcement of any intention
to effect any transaction specified in clause (a) or (b).


 


6.      This
Sponsor Agreement and the other agreements referenced herein constitute the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto
in respect of the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the
parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated
hereby, including, without limitation, with respect to the Sponsor, each Insider and the Prior Letter Agreement. This Sponsor Agreement
may not be changed, amended, modified or waived (other than to correct a typographical error) as to any particular provision, except
by a written instrument executed by the Acquiror and the other parties charged with such change, amendment, modification or waiver,
it being acknowledged and agreed that the Company’s execution of such an instrument will not be required after any valid
termination of the Merger Agreement.

7.     No
party hereto may, except as set forth herein, assign either this Sponsor Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations
hereunder, other than in conjunction with transfers permitted by paragraph 3, without the prior written consent of the other parties
(except that, following any valid termination of the Merger Agreement, no consent from the Company shall be required). Any purported
assignment in violation of this paragraph shall be void and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest
or title to the purported assignee. This Sponsor Agreement shall be binding on the Sponsor, each Insider, the Acquiror and the
Company and their respective successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns and permitted transferees.


 


8.     Nothing
in this Sponsor Agreement shall be construed to confer upon, or give to, any person or corporation other than the parties hereto
any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Sponsor Agreement or of any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise or
agreement hereof. All covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements contained in this Sponsor Agreement shall be
for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns and
permitted transferees.


 


9.     This
Sponsor Agreement may be executed in any number of original, electronic or facsimile counterparts and each of such counterparts
shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.


 


10.     This
Sponsor Agreement shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision hereof shall not affect
the validity or enforceability of this Sponsor Agreement or of any other term or provision hereof. Furthermore, in lieu of any
such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Sponsor
Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.


 


11.     This
Sponsor Agreement, and all claims or causes of action based upon, arising out of, or related to this Sponsor Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of New York, without giving
effect to principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules would require or permit the
application of Laws of another jurisdiction. Any Action based upon, arising out of or related to this Sponsor Agreement or the
transactions contemplated hereby may be brought in federal and state courts located in the Borough of Manhattan in the State of
New York, and each of the parties irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of each such court in any such Action, waives
any objection it may now or hereafter have to personal jurisdiction, venue or convenience of forum, agrees that all claims in respect
of the Action shall be heard and determined only in any such court, and agrees not to bring any Action arising out of or relating
to this Sponsor Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any other court. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed
to affect the right of any party to serve process in any manner permitted by Law or to commence legal proceedings or otherwise
proceed against any other party in any other jurisdiction, in each case, to enforce judgments obtained in any Action brought pursuant
to this paragraph. The prevailing party in any such Action (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) shall be entitled
to be reimbursed by the non-prevailing party for its reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, incurred
with respect to such Action. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION
BASED UPON, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS SPONSOR AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY.


 


12.      Any
notice, consent or request to be given in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Sponsor Agreement shall be in
writing and shall be sent or given in accordance with the terms of Section 11.03 of the Merger Agreement to the applicable
party at its principal place of business.


 


13.     This
Sponsor Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (a) the liquidation of the Acquiror and (b) the expiration of the
Lock-up Periods. In the event of a valid termination of the Merger Agreement, this Sponsor Agreement shall be of no force and effect
and shall revert to the Prior Letter Agreement. No such termination or reversion shall relieve the Sponsor, each Insider, the Acquiror
or the Company from any liability resulting from a breach of this Sponsor Agreement occurring prior to such termination or reversion.

taken by any third party (including under any Contract binding upon such Person or such Person’s Founder Shares or Private
Placement Warrants, as applicable), in each case, to the extent such consent, approval or other action would prevent, enjoin or
materially delay the performance by such Person of his, her or its obligations under this Sponsor Agreement; (v) there are
no Actions pending against such Person or, to the knowledge of such Person, threatened against such Person, before (or, in the
case of threatened Actions, that would be before) any arbitrator or any Governmental Authority, which in any manner challenges

Agreement; (vi) except for fees described on Schedule 4.08 of the Merger Agreement, no financial advisor, investment banker,

of such Person, on behalf of such Person, for which Acquiror, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates would have any
obligations or liabilities of any kind or nature; (vii) such Person has had the opportunity to read the Merger Agreement and
