2. REGISTRATION
RIGHTS.


 


2.1 Demand
Registration.


 


2.1.1 Request
for Registration. At any time and from time to time on or after the date that the Company consummates a Business Combination, the
holders of a majority-in-interest of the Founder Shares, Private Warrants (or underlying securities), Representative Shares, Working
Capital Warrants (or underlying securities) or other Registrable Securities, as the case may be, held by the Investors, officers or directors
of the Company or their affiliates, or the transferees of the Investors may make a written demand for registration under the Securities
Act of all or part of their Founder Shares, Private Warrants (or underlying securities), Representative Shares, Working Capital Warrants
(or underlying securities) or other Registrable Securities, as the case may be (a “Demand Registration”). Any
demand for a Demand Registration shall specify the number of shares of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold and the intended method(s)
of distribution thereof. The Company will, within ten (1) days of the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration, notify all
holders of Registrable Securities of the demand, and each holder of Registrable Securities who wishes to include all or a portion of
such holder’s Registrable Securities in the Demand Registration (each such holder including shares of Registrable Securities in
such registration, a “Demanding Holder”) shall so notify the Company within fifteen (15) days after the receipt
by the holder of the notice from the Company. Upon any such request, the Demanding Holders shall be entitled to have their Registrable
Securities included in the Demand Registration, subject to Section 2.1.4 and the provisos set forth in Section 3.1.1. The Company shall
not be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of two (2) Demand Registrations under this Section 2.1.1 in respect of all Registrable
Securities.


 


2.1.2 Effective
Registration. A registration will not count as a Demand Registration until the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with
respect to such Demand Registration has been declared effective and the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement
with respect thereto; provided, however, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, the offering of Registrable
Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration is interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission or any other governmental
agency or court, the Registration Statement with respect to such Demand Registration will be deemed not to have been declared effective,
unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of
the Demanding Holders thereafter elect to continue the offering; provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated to file a
second Registration Statement until a Registration Statement that has been filed is counted as a Demand Registration or is terminated. 


 


2.1.3 Underwritten
Offering. If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders so elect and such holders so advise the Company as part of their written
demand for a Demand Registration, the offering of such Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form
of an underwritten offering. In such event, the right of any holder to include its Registrable Securities in such registration shall
be conditioned upon such holder’s participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such holder’s Registrable Securities
in the underwriting to the extent provided herein. All Demanding Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through
such underwriting shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such
underwriting by a majority-in-interest of the holders initiating the Demand Registration.


 


2.1.4 Reduction
of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Demand Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises
the Company and the Demanding Holders in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Registrable Securities which the Demanding
Holders desire to sell, taken together with all other shares of Common Stock or other securities which the Company desires to sell and
the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration
rights held by other stockholders of the Company who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares that
can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability
of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of shares, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of
Shares”), then the Company shall include in such registration: (i) first, the Registrable Securities as to which Demand
Registration has been requested by the Demanding Holders (pro rata in accordance with the number of shares that each such Person has
requested be included in such registration, regardless of the number of shares held by each such Person (such proportion is referred
to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (ii) second, to
the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the shares of Common Stock or other
securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (iii) third, to the extent
that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Registrable Securities of holders
exercising their piggy-back registration rights pursuant to Section 2.2; and (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares
has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), and (iii), the shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account
of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements with such persons and that can
be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.


 






    3


     


    

 


2.1.5 Withdrawal.
If a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders disapprove of the terms of any underwriting or are not entitled to include all of
their Registrable Securities in any offering, such majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders may elect to withdraw from such offering
by giving written notice to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters of their request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of
the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Demand Registration. If the majority-in-interest of the Demanding
Holders withdraws from a proposed offering relating to a Demand Registration, then such registration shall not count as a Demand Registration
provided for in Section 2.1. 


 


2.2 Piggy-Back
Registration.


 


2.2.1 Piggy-Back
Rights. If at any time on or after the date the Company consummates a Business Combination the Company proposes to file a Registration
Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or
exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, by the Company for its own account or for shareholders of the Company for their
account (or by the Company and by shareholders of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 2.1), other than a Registration
Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities
solely to the Company’s existing shareholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the
Company or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then the Company shall (x) give written notice of such proposed filing to the holders
of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but in no event less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date, which notice
shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name
of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, of the offering, and (y) offer to the holders of Registrable Securities
in such notice the opportunity to register the sale of such number of shares of Registrable Securities as such holders may request in
writing within five (5) days following receipt of such notice (a “Piggy-Back Registration”). The Company shall
cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter
or Underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested to be included in a Piggy-Back Registration
on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable
Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All holders of Registrable Securities proposing to distribute
their securities through a Piggy-Back Registration that involves an Underwriter or Underwriters shall enter into an underwriting agreement
in customary form with the Underwriter or Underwriters selected for such Piggy-Back Registration.


 


2.2.2 Reduction
of Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters for a Piggy-Back Registration that is to be an underwritten offering advises
the Company and the holders of Registrable Securities in writing that the dollar amount or number of shares of Common Stock which the
Company desires to sell, taken together with shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration has been demanded pursuant to separate
written contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder, the Registrable
Securities as to which registration has been requested under this Section 2.2, and the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which registration
has been requested pursuant to the written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, exceeds the
Maximum Number of Shares, then the Company shall include in any such registration:


 


(a)
If the registration is undertaken for the Company’s account: (A) the shares of Common Stock or other securities that the Company
desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares
has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the shares of Common Stock or other securities, if any, comprised of Registrable
Securities, as to which registration has been requested pursuant to the applicable written contractual piggy-back registration rights
of such security holders, Pro Rata, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (C) to the extent that the Maximum
Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Common Stock or other securities for the
account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights with
such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and


 






    4


     


    

 


(b)
If the registration is a “demand” registration undertaken at the demand of persons other than either the holders of Registrable
Securities, (A) first, the shares of Common Stock or other securities for the account of the demanding persons that can be sold without
exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing
clause (A), the shares of Common Stock or other securities that the Company desires to sell that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum
Number of Shares; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and
(B), collectively, the shares of Common Stock or other securities comprised of Registrable Securities, Pro Rata, as to which registration
has been requested pursuant to the terms hereof, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares; and (D) fourth, to
the extent that the Maximum Number of Shares has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), shares of Common Stock
or other securities for the account of other persons that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to written contractual arrangements
with such persons, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Shares.


 


2.2.3 Withdrawal.
Any holder of Registrable Securities may elect to withdraw such holder’s request for inclusion of Registrable Securities in any
Piggy-Back Registration by giving written notice to the Company of such request to withdraw prior to the effectiveness of the Registration
Statement. The Company (whether on its own determination or as the result of a withdrawal by persons making a demand pursuant to written
contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement.
Notwithstanding any such withdrawal, the Company shall pay all expenses incurred by the holders of Registrable Securities in connection
with such Piggy-Back Registration as provided in Section 3.3. 


 


2.2.4
Unlimited Piggy-Back Registration Rights. For the avoidance of doubt, any registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2 hereof
shall not be counted as a registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof.


 


2.3 Registrations
on Form S-3. The holders of Registrable Securities may at any time and from time to time request in writing that the Company register
the resale of any or all of such Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short-form registration which may be available at
such time (“Form S-3”); provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect such request through
an underwritten offering. Upon receipt of such written request, the Company will promptly give written notice of the proposed registration
to all other holders of Registrable Securities, and each holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion
of such holder’s Registrable Securities in such registration shall notify the Company in writing within fifteen (15) days after
the receipt by the holder of the notice from the Company and, as soon as practicable thereafter, the Company shall effect the registration
of all or such portion of such holder’s or holders’ Registrable Securities as are specified in such request, together with
all or such portion of the Registrable Securities or other securities of the Company, if any, of any other holder or holders joining
in such request; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such registration pursuant to this Section
2.3: (i) if Form S-3 is not available for such offering; or (ii) if the holders of the Registrable Securities, together with the holders
of any other securities of the Company entitled to inclusion in such registration, propose to sell Registrable Securities and such other
securities (if any) at any aggregate price to the public of less than $500,000. Registrations effected pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall
not be counted as Demand Registrations effected pursuant to Section 2.1.

3. REGISTRATION
PROCEDURES.


 


3.1 Filings;
Information. Whenever the Company is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 2, the
Company shall use its best efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended
method(s) of distribution thereof as expeditiously as practicable, and in connection with any such request:



 


3.1.1 Filing
Registration Statement. The Company shall use its best efforts to, as expeditiously as possible after receipt of a request for a
Demand Registration pursuant to Section 2.1, prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement on any form for which the

Registrable Securities to be registered thereunder in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof, and shall use its
best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and use its best efforts to keep it effective for the period required
by Section 3.1.3; provided, however, that the Company shall have the right to defer any Demand Registration for up to thirty (30) days,
and any Piggy-Back Registration for such period as may be applicable to deferment of any demand registration to which such Piggy-Back
Registration relates, in each case if the Company shall furnish to the holders a certificate signed by the President or Chairman of the
Company stating that, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of the Company, it would be materially detrimental to the
Company and its shareholders for such Registration Statement to be effected at such time; provided further, however, that the Company
shall not have the right to exercise the right set forth in the immediately preceding proviso more than once in any 365-day period in
respect of a Demand Registration hereunder.

thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the prospectus included in such Registration Statement (including each preliminary

and Supplements. The Company shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and

covered by such Registration Statement have been disposed of in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution set forth in such
Registration Statement or such securities have been withdrawn.


 


3.1.4 Notification.
After the filing of a Registration Statement, the Company shall promptly, and in no event more than two (2) business days after such

to such Registration Statement or any prospectus relating thereto or for additional information or of the occurrence of an event requiring
the preparation of a supplement or amendment to such prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of the securities
covered by such Registration Statement, such prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and promptly make available to
the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement any such supplement or amendment; except that before filing
with the Commission a Registration Statement or prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by
reference, the Company shall furnish to the holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement and to the legal
counsel for any such holders, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed sufficiently in advance of filing to provide such holders
and legal counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review such documents and comment thereon, and the Company shall not file any Registration
Statement or prospectus or amendment or supplement thereto, including documents incorporated by reference, to which such holders or their
legal counsel shall object.


 


3.1.5 State
Securities Laws Compliance. The Company shall use its best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities covered
by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the United States as the
holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan of distribution) may request
and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with
or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business and operations of the Company and do
any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the holders of Registrable Securities included in such
Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the
Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify

The representations, warranties and covenants of the Company in any underwriting agreement which are made to or for the benefit of any
Underwriters, to the extent applicable, shall also be made to and for the benefit of the holders of Registrable Securities included in

responsibility, and cause the Company’s officers, directors and employees to supply all information requested by any of them in

3.1.11 Listing.
The Company shall use its best efforts to cause all Registrable Securities included in any registration to be listed on such exchanges

Securities included in such registration.


 


3.1.12 Road
Show. If the registration involves the registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $25,000,000,

to Suspend Distribution. Upon receipt of any notice from the Company of the happening of any event of the kind described in Section
3.1.4(iv), or, in the case of a resale registration on Form S-3 pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof, upon any suspension by the Company, pursuant
to a written insider trading compliance program adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors, of the ability of all “insiders”
covered by such program to transact in the Company’s securities because of the existence of material non-public information, each
holder of Registrable Securities included in any registration shall immediately discontinue disposition of such Registrable Securities
pursuant to the Registration Statement covering such Registrable Securities until such holder receives the supplemented or amended prospectus
contemplated by Section 3.1.4(iv) or the restriction on the ability of “insiders” to transact in the Company’s securities
is removed, as applicable, and, if so directed by the Company, each such holder will deliver to the Company all written copies, other

losses, judgments, claims, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement (or allegedly
untrue statement) of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities was
registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration
Statement, or any amendment or supplement to such Registration Statement, or arising out of or based upon any omission (or alleged omission)
to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, or any violation by
the Company of the Securities Act or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder applicable to the Company and relating to action or
inaction required of the Company in connection with any such registration; and the Company shall promptly reimburse the Investor Indemnified
Party for any legal and any other expenses reasonably incurred by such Investor Indemnified Party in connection with investigating and
defending any such expense, loss, judgment, claim, damage, liability or action whether or not any such person is a party to any such
claim or action and including any and all legal and other expenses incurred in giving testimony or furnishing documents in response to
a subpoena or otherwise; provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such expense,
loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any untrue statement or allegedly untrue statement or omission or alleged
omission made in such Registration Statement, preliminary prospectus, final prospectus, or summary prospectus, or any such amendment
or supplement, in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished to the Company, in writing, by such selling holder expressly
for use therein. The Company also shall indemnify any Underwriter of the Registrable Securities, their officers, affiliates, directors,
partners, members and agents and each person who controls such Underwriter on substantially the same basis as that of the indemnification
provided above in this Section 4.1.

4.2 Indemnification
by Holders of Registrable Securities. Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.4.3 hereof, each selling holder of Registrable
Securities will, in the event that any registration is being effected under the Securities Act pursuant to this Agreement of any Registrable
Securities held by such selling holder, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors and officers and each Underwriter
(if any), and each other selling holder and each other person, if any, who controls another selling holder or such Underwriter within
the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities, whether joint or several, insofar as
such losses, claims, judgments, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement
or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement under which the sale of such Registrable Securities
was registered under the Securities Act, any preliminary prospectus, final prospectus or summary prospectus contained in the Registration
Statement, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement, or arise out of or are based upon any omission or the alleged
omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statement therein not misleading, if the statement
or omission was made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by such selling holder expressly
for use therein, and shall reimburse the Company, its directors and officers, and each other selling holder or controlling person for
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by any of them in connection with investigation or defending any such loss, claim, damage,
liability or action. Each selling holder’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be several and not joint and shall be limited
to the amount of any net proceeds actually received by such selling holder.


 


4.3 Conduct
of Indemnification Proceedings. Promptly after receipt by any person of any notice of any loss, claim, damage or liability or any
action in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 4.1 or 4.2, such person (the “Indemnified Party”)
shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against any other person for indemnification hereunder, notify such other person (the
“Indemnifying Party”) in writing of the loss, claim, judgment, damage, liability or action; provided, however,
that the failure by the Indemnified Party to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability
which the Indemnifying Party may have to such Indemnified Party hereunder, except and solely to the extent the Indemnifying Party is
actually prejudiced by such failure. If the Indemnified Party is seeking indemnification with respect to any claim or action brought
against the Indemnified Party, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to participate in such claim or action, and, to the extent
that it wishes, jointly with all other Indemnifying Parties, to assume control of the defense thereof with counsel satisfactory to the
Indemnified Party. After notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume control of the defense
of such claim or action, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal or other expenses subsequently
incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however,
that in any action in which both the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party are named as defendants, the Indemnified Party shall
have the right to employ separate counsel (but no more than one such separate counsel) to represent the Indemnified Party and its controlling
persons who may be subject to liability arising out of any claim in respect of which indemnity may be sought by the Indemnified Party
against the Indemnifying Party, with the fees and expenses of such counsel to be paid by such Indemnifying Party if, based upon the written
advice of counsel of such Indemnified Party, representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual
or potential differing interests between them. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party,
consent to entry of judgment or effect any settlement of any claim or pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which the Indemnified
Party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party, unless such judgment or
settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such claim or proceeding.

4.4 Contribution.


 


4.4.1
If the indemnification provided for in the foregoing Sections 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 is unavailable to any Indemnified Party in respect of
any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to herein, then each such Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified
Party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, liability or
action in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Parties and the Indemnifying Parties in
connection with the actions or omissions which resulted in such loss, claim, damage, liability or action, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative fault of any Indemnified Party and any Indemnifying Party shall be determined by reference to,
among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a
material fact relates to information supplied by such Indemnified Party or such Indemnifying Party and the parties’ relative intent,
knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission.


 


4.4.2
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.4 were determined by pro
rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately
preceding Section 4.4.1.


 


4.4.3
The amount paid or payable by an Indemnified Party as a result of any loss, claim, damage, liability or action referred to in the immediately
preceding paragraph shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses incurred by such
Indemnified Party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section
4.4, no holder of Registrable Securities shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the dollar amount of the net proceeds
(after payment of any underwriting fees, discounts, commissions or taxes) actually received by such holder from the sale of Registrable
Securities which gave rise to such contribution obligation. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) with respect to any action shall be entitled to contribution in such action from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.


 


5. UNDERWRITING
AND DISTRIBUTION.


 


5.1 Rule
144. The Company covenants that it shall file any reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act
and shall take such further action as the holders of Registrable Securities may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time
to time to enable such holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of
the exemptions provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, as such Rules may be amended from time to time, or any similar rule or
regulation hereafter adopted by the Commission. 


 


6. MISCELLANEOUS.


 


6.1 Other
Registration Rights. The Company represents and warrants that no person, other than the holders of the Registrable Securities, has
any right to require the Company to register any shares of the Company’s capital stock for sale or to include shares of the Company’s
capital stock in any registration filed by the Company for the sale of shares of capital stock for its own account or for the account
of any other person.


 


6.2 Assignment;
No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the Company hereunder may not be assigned
or delegated by the Company in whole or in part, except in connection with a Business Combination and with the consent of each Investor
party hereto. This Agreement and the rights, duties and obligations of the holders of Registrable Securities hereunder may be freely
assigned or delegated by such holder of Registrable Securities in conjunction with and to the extent of any transfer of Registrable Securities
by any such holder. This Agreement and the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties,
to the permitted assigns of the Investors or holder of Registrable Securities or of any assignee of the Investors or holder of Registrable
Securities. This Agreement is not intended to confer any rights or benefits on any persons that are not party hereto other than as expressly
set forth in Article 4 and this Section 6.2.

to this Agreement. Waivers may be made in advance or after the right waived has arisen or the breach or default waived has occurred.
Any waiver may be conditional. No waiver of any breach of any agreement or provision herein contained shall be deemed a waiver of any
preceding or succeeding breach thereof nor of any other agreement or provision herein contained. No waiver or extension of time for performance
of any obligations or acts shall be deemed a waiver or extension of the time for performance of any other obligations or acts.

6.10 Remedies
Cumulative. In the event that the Company fails to observe or perform any covenant or agreement to be observed or performed under
this Agreement, the Investor or any other holder of Registrable Securities may proceed to protect and enforce its rights by suit in equity
or action at law, whether for specific performance of any term contained in this Agreement or for an injunction against the breach of
any such term or in aid of the exercise of any power granted in this Agreement or to enforce any other legal or equitable right, or to
take any one or more of such actions, without being required to post a bond. None of the rights, powers or remedies conferred under this
Agreement shall be mutually exclusive, and each such right, power or remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other right, power
or remedy, whether conferred by this Agreement or now or hereafter available at law, in equity, by statute or otherwise. 


 


6.11 Governing
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, interpreted under, and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New
York applicable to agreements made and to be performed within the State of New York, without giving effect to any choice-of-law provisions
thereof that would compel the application of the substantive laws of any other jurisdiction. The Company irrevocably submits to the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of any New York State or United States Federal court sitting in The City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, over any suit,
action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. The Company irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
law, any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such
a court and any claim that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in such a court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.


 


6.12 Waiver
of Trial by Jury. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES THE RIGHT
TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF,
CONNECTED WITH OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, OR THE ACTIONS OF THE INVESTOR IN THE NEGOTIATION,
