does not and shall not as of the IPO Closing Date (a) conflict with or result in a breach by the Purchaser of the terms, conditions or

Public Offering, or any material law, statute, rule or regulation to which the Purchaser is subject, or any agreement, instrument, order,
judgment or decree to which the Purchaser is subject, except for any filings required after the date hereof under federal or state securities
laws.


 


C.
Investment Representations.


 


(i)
The Purchaser is acquiring the Private Placement Warrants and, upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, the Class A 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, and the Purchaser has
not experienced a disqualifying event as enumerated pursuant to Rule 506(d) of Regulation D under 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 decide to enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning
of Rule 502(c) of Regulation D 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.


 




    	3



    	 



    




 


(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. In this regard, the Purchaser understands that 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 despite technical compliance
with the requirements of such Rule, and the Securities can be resold only through a registered offering or in reliance upon another exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.


 


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


 


(ix)
The Purchaser understands that the Private Placement Warrants shall bear the legend substantially in the form set forth in the Warrant
Agreement.

Warrants are subject to the fulfillment, on or before the IPO Closing Date, of each of the following conditions:

and binding obligation of the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such
facsimile or “pdf” signature page were an original thereof.


 


D.
Descriptive Headings; Interpretation. The descriptive headings of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not
constitute a substantive part of this Agreement. The use of the word “including” in this Agreement shall be by way
of example rather than by limitation.

Governing Law. This Agreement shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of New York and for all purposes
shall be construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles
