    INVESTMENT AGREEMENT

    

    

    THIS INVESTMENT AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”),
      dated as of [_______], 2021, is by and among (i) Mercury Ecommerce Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “SPAC”), (ii) Mercury Sponsor Group I LLC, a
      Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), and (iii) the party or each of the parties named on the signature page hereto as Investor (referred to
      individually and collectively below as “Investor”, provided, to the extent there are more than one Investor referenced below, all representations, warranties
      and obligations hereunder by Investor are made severally and not jointly).

    

    

    WHEREAS, in connection with the initial public offering (the “IPO”) of units of the SPAC, each consisting of one share of Class A common stock of the SPAC, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common
          Stock”), and one-half of one warrant (the “Units”), Investor has expressed an interest in acquiring up to an aggregate of [_______] Units in the
      IPO (the “IPO Indication”), at a price of $10.00 per Unit (with any allocation among more than one Investor set forth on the Investor signature page(s)
      hereto).

    

    

    WHEREAS, the parties wish to enter into this Agreement pursuant to which Investor will purchase from the Sponsor Class B common stock,
      par value $0.0001 per share, of the SPAC (the “Founder Shares”), for the same value paid by the Sponsor, or approximately $0.005 per share.

    

    

    NOW THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

    

    

    Section 1.          Sale and Purchase.

    

    

    (a)          In connection with the
        IPO Indication, and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 1(b), the Sponsor hereby agrees to sell to Investor an aggregate of
        [_______] Founder Shares (such Founder Shares, the “Transferred Shares”) (with any allocation among more than one Investor set forth on the signature page(s)
        hereto) for an aggregate purchase price of $[____] (a purchase price of $0.005 per share) (the “Transfer Price”) on the date of the closing of the IPO, and
        Investor hereby agrees to purchase the Transferred Shares (the “Transfer”). Concurrently with the Transfer, in consideration for the transfer of the
        Transferred Shares, Investor shall pay the Transfer Price to the Sponsor in immediately available funds. The Transferred Shares held by Investor, subject to the fulfillment by Investor of the IPO Indication, shall not be subject to forfeiture for
        any reason, including as part of the Sponsor’s negotiation of an initial business combination. Furthermore, the Transferred Shares amount or Transfer Price shall not be adjusted should the underwriters elect to allocate the Investor less than the
        IPO Indication.

    

    

    (b)          Subject to  the
        fulfillment by Investor of the IPO Indication (which shall include the acquisition of 100% of the units of the SPAC, and not less than 100%, allocated to Investor by the underwriters in the IPO),  Investor’s payment of the Transfer Price as
        contemplated by Section 1(a) of this Agreement, the Transfer shall occur and be effective upon the closing of the IPO and (iii) Investor’s execution of the
        Registration Rights Agreement and Letter Agreement in accordance with Section 5(c).

    (d)          In connection with the
        Transferred Shares:

    

    

    (i) it has been advised that the Transferred Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as
      amended (the “Securities Act”);

    

    

    (ii) it acknowledges that there exists no public market for the Transferred Shares, that no such public market may
      develop in the future, the Transferred Shares, when sold or issued, will be “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, and understands that the book-entries or certificates representing the Transferred
      Shares will contain a restricted legend or notation in respect of such restrictions.   As a result, Investor acknowledges that the Transferred Shares may be required to be held indefinitely unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or
      unless an exemption from such registration is available. The Investor agrees that if any transfer of its Transferred Shares or any interest therein is proposed to be made, as a condition precedent to any such transfer, the Investor may, at the SPAC’s
      option, be required to deliver to the SPAC an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the SPAC. Absent registration or an exemption, the Investor agrees not to resell the Transferred Shares.  Investor is aware of the provisions of Rule 144 promulgated
      under the Securities Act which permit resales of securities purchased in a private placement subject to certain limitations and to the satisfaction of certain conditions provided for thereunder, including, among other things, the existence of a
      public market for the securities, the availability of certain current public information about the company issuing the securities, the resale occurring not less than six months after a party has purchased and paid for the security to be sold, the
      sale being effected through a “broker’s transaction” or in transactions directly with a “market maker” and the number of securities being sold during any three-month period not exceeding specified limitations. Investor further acknowledges that the
      Transferred Shares will be subject to certain lock-up restrictions, as described in the Registration Statement, and may only be transferred pursuant to the terms of such lock-up. Investor also acknowledges that Rule 144 is not available for the
      resale of securities initially issued by shell companies or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company and that Rule 144 will provide an exception to this prohibition only if (A) the SPAC has then ceased to be a shell company; (B)
      the SPAC is then subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”); (C) the SPAC has then filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter
      period that the SPAC was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and (D) at least one year has elapsed from the time that the SPAC filed current Form 10-K type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an
      entity that is not a shell company;

    

    

    (iii) it will be acquiring the Transferred Shares for its own account for investment purposes only;

    

    

    (iv) it has no present intention of selling or otherwise disposing of the Founder Shares in violation of the
      securities laws of the United States;

    
      3

      
        


    

    (v) it is an “accredited investor” as that term is defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act;

    

    

    (vi) it will, upon request, provide the Sponsor to the completed an IRS Form W-9 or Form W-8BEN (or similar form), as
      applicable;

    

    

    (vii) it has had both the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the officers and directors of the
      SPAC and all persons acting on its behalf concerning the terms and conditions of the offer made hereunder; and

    

    

    (viii) it is familiar with the proposed business, management, financial condition and affairs of the SPAC.

    

    

    (e)          Investor is not, and is
        not acting as, an agent, representative, intermediary or nominee for any person identified on the list of blocked persons maintained by the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department; and Investor has complied with all
        applicable U.S. laws, regulations, directives and executive orders relating to anti-money laundering.

    

    

    Section 5.          Additional Agreements and Acknowledgements of Investor.

    

    

    (a)          Investor acknowledges
        that the SPAC was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses or entities (a “Business Combination”). Investor agrees that if the SPAC seeks shareholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection with such proposed Business Combination,
        Investor shall vote all Founder Shares in favor of such proposed Business Combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing shall prevent the Investor from redeeming any public shares it acquires pursuant to the IPO in accordance with the terms
        and conditions applicable to the public shares and the IPO set out in the SPAC’s registration statement, initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 25, 2021, as subsequently amended on June 3, 2021 and as may be further amended, in connection with the IPO (the “Registration Statement”).

    

    

    (b)          Investor acknowledges
        that it is aware the SPAC will establish a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of its public shareholders upon the closing of the IPO and
        deposit proceeds from the sale of Units in the IPO and the sale of private placement warrants into the Trust Account, as described in the Registration Statement. Investor further acknowledges and agrees that it has no right, title, interest or
        claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account (“Claim”), or any other asset of the SPAC as a result of any liquidation of the SPAC, with
        respect to the Transferred Shares or otherwise other than with respect to shares of Class A common stock purchased by Investor in the IPO or in the open market and hereby waives any Claim it may have in the future against the SPAC and will not seek
        recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever (except in respect of any shares of Class A common stock of the SPAC purchased directly by Investor in the IPO or in the open market).

    
      4

      
        


    

    (c)          Investor acknowledges and
        agrees that, upon receipt of the Transferred Shares and in connection with the consummation of the IPO, it will execute agreements in form and substance typical for transactions of this nature necessary to effectuate the foregoing agreements and
        obligations, including but not limited to (i) a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) and (ii) the letter agreement, containing
        customary voting, lock-up and waiver of rights provisions for such offerings, entered into in connection with the IPO (the “Letter Agreement”), and in each
        case in the forms of Registration Rights Agreement and Letter Agreement filed by the SPAC filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement prior to the consummation of the IPO.
