Re: Initial Public Offering


 


Ladies and 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 Mount Rainier Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), and A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners, as representative (the “Representative”),
of the several underwriters (each an “Underwriter” and collectively, the “Underwriters”),
relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the “Public Offering”), of 15,000,000 of the Company’s
units (including up to 2,250,000 units that may be purchased to cover over-allotments, if any) (the “Units”),
each comprised of one share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”),
and one redeemable warrant. Each warrant (each, a “Warrant”) entitles the holder thereof to purchase three-fourths
of a share of Common Stock at a price of $11.50 per whole share, subject to adjustment. The Units will 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 U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and the Company has applied to have the
Units listed on The Nasdaq Global Market. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 12 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, each of DC Rainier SPV
LLC (the “Sponsor”) and the undersigned officers, directors and shareholders of the Company immediately prior
to the Public Offering (other than the Representative) (each, an “Insider” and collectively, the “Insiders”),
hereby agrees with the Company as follows:


 


1. The Sponsor, each Insider
and the Representative agrees that if the Company seeks stockholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection with
such proposed Business Combination, it, he or she shall (i) vote any shares of Capital Stock owned by it, him or her in favor of
any proposed Business Combination and (ii) not redeem any shares of Capital Stock owned by it, him or her in connection with such
stockholder approval. If the Company engages in a tender offer in connection with any proposed Business Combination, the Sponsor and each
Insider agrees that it, he or she will not seek to sell its, his or her shares of Capital Stock to the Company in connection with such
tender offer.


 






     


     


    

 


2. The Sponsor and each Insider
hereby agrees that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within 15 months from the closing of the Public
Offering, or such later period approved by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated
certificate of incorporation (the “Charter”), the Sponsor and each Insider 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, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the Common Stock 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 (as defined below), including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust
Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (as described in the Prospectus) (less up to $100,000 of interest
to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish all
Public Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (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 stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s
obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. The Sponsor and each Insider
agrees not to propose any amendment to the Charter to modify (i) the substance or timing of the ability of holders of Offering Shares
to seek redemption in connection with a Business Combination or the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if
the Company does not complete a Business Combination by the date set forth in the Charter or (ii) the other provisions relating to
stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activities, unless the Company provides Public Stockholders with the opportunity
to redeem their shares of Common Stock 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 earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released
to the Company to pay its taxes (as described in the Prospectus), divided by the number of then outstanding Offering Shares.


 


The Sponsor, each Insider
and the Representative acknowledges that, with respect to the Founder Shares held by it, him or her, it, he or she has no right, title,
interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account as a result of any liquidation of the Company (although the
Sponsor, the Insiders, the Representative and their respective affiliates shall be entitled to redemption and liquidation rights with
respect to any Offering Shares it or they hold if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within the time period set forth
in the Charter). The Sponsor, each Insider and the Representative hereby further waives, with respect to any shares of Capital Stock held
by it, him or her, if any, any redemption rights it, he or she may have in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination,
including, without limitation, any such rights available in the context of a stockholder vote to approve such Business Combination or
a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Charter to (i) modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation
to redeem 100% of the Offering Shares if the Company has not consummated a Business Combination within the time period set forth in the
Charter or in the context of a tender offer made by the Company to purchase shares of Capital Stock or (ii) with respect to any other
provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity.


 


3. During the period commencing
on the effective date of the Underwriting Agreement and ending 180 days after such date, the Sponsor and each Insider shall not, without
the prior written consent of the Representative, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any
option, right or warrant to purchase, lend or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Units, shares of
Common Stock, Founder Shares, Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock
owned by it, him or her, (ii) 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 (the “Exchange Act”),
and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder, with respect to any Units, shares of Common Stock, Founder
Shares, Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, shares of Common Stock owned by it, him or her,
(iii) 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, shares of Common Stock, Founder Shares, Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable
for, shares of Common Stock owned by it, him or her, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in
cash or otherwise, (iv) file or cause to be filed any registration statement with the Commission relating to the offering of any
Units, shares of Common Stock, Founder Shares, Warrants or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, shares
of Common Stock owned by it, him or her, (v) complete any offering of debt securities of the Company, other than entering into a
line of credit with a traditional bank, or (vi) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i),
(ii), (iii), (iv) or (v). Each of the Insiders and the Sponsor 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 7 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. In the event of the liquidation
of the Trust Account upon the failure of the Company to consummate its initial Business Combination within the time period set forth in
the Charter, the Sponsor (the “Indemnitor”) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any and
all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, whether pending or threatened) to which the Company may become
subject as a result of any claim by (i) any third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company or (ii) any prospective
target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or Business
Combination agreement (a “Target”); provided, however, that such indemnification of the Company by the Indemnitor
(x) shall apply only to the extent necessary to ensure that such claims by a third party or a Target do not reduce the amount of
funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.20 per Offering Share and (ii) the actual amount per Offering Share
held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.20 per Offering Share is then held
in the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less interest earned on the Trust Account which may be withdrawn
to pay taxes, (y) shall not apply to any claims by a third party or a Target which executed a waiver of any and all rights to the
monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) and (z) shall not apply to any claims under the Company’s
indemnity of the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Indemnitor
shall have the right to defend against any such claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Company if, within 15
days following written receipt of notice of the claim to the Indemnitor, the Indemnitor notifies the Company in writing that it shall
undertake such defense.


 


5.
To the extent that the Underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment option to purchase up to an additional 2,250,000 Units
within 45 days from the date of the Prospectus (and as further described in the Prospectus), the Initial Stockholders agree to forfeit,
at no cost, a number of Founder Shares in the aggregate equal to 562,500 multiplied by a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is
2,250,000 minus the number of Units purchased by the Underwriters upon the exercise of their over-allotment option, and (ii) the
denominator of which is 2,250,000. The forfeiture will be adjusted to the extent that the over-allotment option is not exercised in full
by the Underwriters so that the Initial Stockholders will own an aggregate of 20.0% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares
of Capital Stock after the Public Offering.


 


6. (a) The Sponsor and
the Insiders hereby agree not to participate in the formation of, or become an officer or director of, any special purpose acquisition
company with a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act, other than the Company, until the Company has entered into a definitive
agreement regarding an initial Business Combination or the Company has failed to complete an initial Business Combination within 15 months
after the closing of the Public Offering, as such period may be extended by Company stockholder approval.


 


(b) The Sponsor and the
Insiders hereby agree to offer all suitable Business Combination opportunities to the Company before any other person or company until
the consummation by the Company of an initial Business Combination, subject to any pre-existing contractual or fiduciary obligations they
may have (which pre-existing fiduciary duties and any potential conflicts of interest arising therefrom have been previously disclosed
to the Representative), on customary terms reasonably acceptable to the Representative.


 



    3


     


    

 


(c) The Sponsor and each
Insider hereby agrees and acknowledges that: (i) the Underwriters and the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a
breach by the Sponsor or an Insider of its, his or her obligations under paragraphs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6(a), 6(b), 7(a), 7(b), and 9, as applicable,
of this Letter Agreement (ii) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (iii) the non-breaching party
shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of
such breach.


 


7. (a) The Sponsor, each
Insider and the Representative agrees that it, he or she shall not 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 Company’s initial Business Combination or
(B) subsequent to the Company’s initial Business Combination, (x) if the last reported sale 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 Company’s initial Business Combination
or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction
that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities
or other property (the “Founder Shares Lock-up Period”).


 


(b) The Sponsor and each
Insider agrees that it, he or she shall not Transfer any Private Placement Units (including the shares of Common Stock underlying the
Private Warrants), until 30 days after the Company’s completion of its initial Business Combination (the “Private Placement
Units Lock-up Period”, together with the Founder Shares Lock-up Period, the “Lock-up Periods”).


 


(c) Notwithstanding the
provisions set forth in paragraphs 7(a) and (b), Transfers of the Founder Shares, the Private Placement Units and the shares of Common
Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise or conversion of the Private Warrants or the Founder Shares and that are held by the Sponsor,
any Insider, the Representative or any of their permitted transferees (that have complied with this paragraph 7(c)), are permitted (a) to
the Company’s officers or directors, any affiliate or family member of any of the Company’s officers or directors, any affiliate
of the Sponsor or any member of the Sponsor; (b) in the case of an individual, by gift to a member of such individual’s immediate
family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of such individual’s immediate family, an affiliate of such individual
or to a charitable organization; (c) in the case of an individual, by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon death of such
individual; (d) in the case of an individual, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (e) by private sales or transfers
made in connection with the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination at prices no greater than the price at which
the Founder Shares, shares of Common Stock or Private Units were originally purchased; (f) in the event of the Company’s liquidation
prior to the completion of an initial Business Combination; or (g) by virtue of the laws of the State of Delaware or the Sponsor’s
limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of the Sponsor; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (e) or
(g), any such permitted transferees must enter into a written agreement with the Company agreeing to be bound by the transfer restrictions
in this paragraph 7(c) and the other restrictions contained in this Letter Agreement.
