INDEMNIFICATION
AGREEMENT


 


This
agreement, made and entered into effective as of [____], 2021 (“Agreement”), by and between Alpine Acquisition Corporation,
a Delaware corporation (“Company”), and the undersigned indemnitee (“Indemnitee”).


 


WHEREAS,
the adoption of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and other laws, rules and regulations being promulgated have increased the potential for
liability of officers and directors; and


 


WHEREAS,
the Board of Directors of the Company (“Board”) has determined that the ability to attract and retain such persons is in
the best interests of the Company’s stockholders; and


 


WHEREAS,
it is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company to obligate itself contractually to indemnify such persons to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law so that such persons will serve or continue to serve the Company free from undue concern that they will not
be adequately indemnified; and


 


WHEREAS,
this Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of Article VII of the Bylaws of the Company, and Article Eighth of the Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto and shall neither be deemed to be a
substitute therefor nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder; and


 


WHEREAS,
Indemnitee is willing to serve on behalf of the Company on the condition that he be indemnified according to the terms of this Agreement;


 


NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree

under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), whether or not the Company is then subject to such
reporting requirement provided, however, that, without limitation, such a Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred if after
the date hereof (i) any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act), other than a person
who is an officer or director of the Company on the date hereof (and any of such person’s affiliates), is or becomes “beneficial
owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 50%
or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company without the prior approval of at least two-thirds
of the members of the Board in office immediately prior to such person attaining such percentage interest; (ii) the Company is a party
to a merger, consolidation, sale of assets or other reorganization, or a proxy contest, as a consequence of which (A) members of the
Board in office immediately prior to such transaction or event constitute less than a majority of the Board thereafter or (B) the voting
securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such transaction do not continue to represent (either by remaining outstanding
or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity) more than 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities
of the surviving entity outstanding immediately after such transaction with the power to elect at least a majority of the board of directors
or other governing body of such surviving entity; or (iii) during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning
of such period constituted the Board (including for this purpose any new director whose election or nomination for election by the Company’s
stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then still in office who were directors at the beginning
of such period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved) cease for any reason to constitute at least a
majority of the Board.

deemed to be serving or to have served at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary of any other

defense or settlement of any such Proceeding if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in
or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no indemnification under this paragraph shall be
made in respect of (1) a threatened or pending Proceeding which is settled or otherwise disposed of, or (2) any claim, issue or matter
as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company, unless and only to the extent that the court in which such

6. Indemnification

Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement except for Section 26 hereof, to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of his or her Corporate

(and, when eligible hereunder, amounts paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on his or her behalf in
connection therewith. If Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding but is successful, on the merits or otherwise, as to
one or more but less than all claims, issues or matters in such Proceeding, the Company shall indemnify Indemnitee against all Expenses
(and, when eligible hereunder, amount paid in settlement) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on his or her behalf in connection

otherwise,” includes, but is not limited to, (i) any termination, withdrawal, or dismissal (with or without prejudice) of any Proceeding

or on his or her behalf in connection therewith.


 


8. Advancement
of Expenses and Other Amounts.


 


Subject
to Section 26 hereof, the Company shall advance all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and, when eligible hereunder, amounts paid
in settlement, incurred by or on behalf of Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding within thirty (30) days after the receipt by
the Company of a statement or statements from Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from time to time, whether prior to or after
final disposition of such Proceeding. Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines
and amounts paid in settlement, incurred by Indemnitee and shall include or be preceded or accompanied by an agreement by or on behalf
of Indemnitee to repay any Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement advanced if it shall ultimately be determined
that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified against such Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and, when eligible hereunder, amounts
paid in settlement. In connection with any request for advancement of Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement,
Indemnitee shall not be required to provide any documentation or information to the extent that the provision thereof would undermine
or otherwise jeopardize attorney-client privilege. The Company’s obligation in respect of the advancement of Expenses, judgments,
penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with a criminal Proceeding in which Indemnitee is a defendant shall terminate
at such time as Indemnitee pleads guilty or is convicted after trial and such conviction becomes final and no longer subject to appeal.
Advances shall be unsecured and interest free. Advances shall be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay such amounts
and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to indemnification under the other provisions of this Agreement.

9. Procedure
for Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification.


 


9.1 To
obtain indemnification under this Agreement in connection with any Proceeding, and for the duration thereof, Indemnitee shall submit
to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to Indemnitee
and is reasonably necessary to determine whether and to what extent Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification. The Secretary of the Company
shall, promptly upon receipt of any such request for indemnification, advise the Board in writing that Indemnitee has requested indemnification.


 


9.2 Upon
written request by Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, a determination, if required by applicable law, with
respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement thereto shall be made in such case: (i) if a Change in Control shall have occurred, by Independent
Counsel (unless Indemnitee shall request that such determination be made by the Board or the stockholders, in which case in the manner
provided for in clauses (ii) or (iii) of this Section 9.2) in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee;
(ii) if a Change of Control shall not have occurred, at the election of the Company, (A) by the Board by a majority vote of a quorum
consisting of Disinterested Directors, or (B) if a quorum of the Board consisting of Disinterested Directors is not obtainable, by a
majority of a committee of the Board consisting of two or more Disinterested Directors, or (C) by Independent Counsel in a written opinion
to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee, or (D) by the stockholders of the Company, by a majority vote of a quorum
consisting of stockholders who are not parties to the proceeding, or if no such quorum is obtainable, by a majority vote of stockholders
who are not parties to such proceeding; or (iii) as provided in Section 10.2 of this Agreement. If it is so determined that Indemnitee
is entitled to indemnification, payment to Indemnitee shall be made within ten (10) days after such determination. Indemnitee shall cooperate
with the person, persons or entity making such determination with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification, including
providing to such person, persons or entity upon reasonable advance request any documentation or information which is not privileged
or otherwise protected from disclosure and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination.
Any costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person, persons
or entity making such determination shall be borne by the Company (irrespective of the determination as to Indemnitee’s entitlement
to indemnification) and the Company hereby indemnifies and agrees to hold Indemnitee harmless therefrom.


 


9.3 If
a Change of Control shall have occurred, Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request that such
selection be made by the Board), and Indemnitee (or the Board, as the case may be) shall give written notice to the other party advising
it of the identity of Independent Counsel so selected. In either event, Indemnitee or the Company, as the case may be, may, within seven
days after such written notice of selection shall have been given, deliver to the Company or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a written
objection to such selection. Such objection may be asserted only on the ground that Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the
requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 1 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity
the factual basis of such assertion. If such written objection is made, Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent
Counsel unless and until a court has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within 20 days after submission by Indemnitee
of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 9.1 hereof, no Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected
to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition a court of competent jurisdiction, for resolution of any objection which shall have
been made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel and/or for the appointment as Independent
Counsel of a person selected by such court or by such other person as such court shall designate, and the person with respect to whom
an objection is so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 9.2 hereof. The Company shall pay
any and all reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel incurred by such Independent Counsel in connection with its actions pursuant
to this Agreement, and the Company shall pay all reasonable fees and expenses incident to the procedures of this Section 9.3, regardless
of the manner in which such Independent Counsel was selected or appointed. Upon the due commencement date of any judicial proceeding
pursuant to Section 11.1(iii) of this Agreement, Independent Counsel shall be discharged and relieved of any further responsibility in
such capacity (subject to the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing).

10. Presumptions
and Effects of Certain Proceedings.


 


10.1 In
making a determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person or persons or entity making such determination
shall presume that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement if Indemnitee has submitted a request for indemnification
in accordance with Section 9.1 of this Agreement, and the Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption by clear
and convincing evidence in connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption.


 


10.2 If
the person, persons or entity empowered or selected under Section 9 of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification shall not have made a determination within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor, the
requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall be deemed to have been made and Indemnitee shall be entitled to such
indemnification, absent (i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s
statement not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) prohibition of such indemnification
under applicable law; provided, however, that such 60-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional thirty
(30) days, if the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good faith require(s)
such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto; and provided, further, however,
that the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.2 shall not apply (i) if the determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be
made by the stockholders pursuant to Section 9.2 of this Agreement and if (A) within 15 days after receipt by the Company of the request
for such determination the Board has resolved to submit such determination to the stockholders for their consideration at an annual meeting
thereof to be held within 75 days after such receipt and such determination is made thereat, or (B) a special meeting of stockholders
is called within 15 days after such receipt for the purpose of making such determination, such meeting is held for such purpose within
60 days after having been so called and such determination is made thereat, or (ii) if the determination of entitlement to indemnification
is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9.2 of this Agreement. In connection with each meeting at which a stockholder
determination will be made, the Company shall solicit proxies that expressly include a proposal to indemnify or reimburse the Indemnitee.
The Company shall afford the Indemnitee ample opportunity to present evidence of the facts upon which the Indemnitee relies for indemnification
in any Company proxy statement relating to such stockholder determination. Subject to the fiduciary duties of its members under applicable
law, the Board will not recommend against indemnification or reimbursement in any proxy statement relating to the proposal to indemnify
or reimburse the Indemnitee.


 


10.3 The
termination of any Proceeding or of any claim, issue or matter therein, by judgment, order, settlement or conviction, or upon a plea
of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not (except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement) of itself adversely affect
the right of Indemnitee to indemnification or create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, that Indemnitee
had reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.


 






    5


     


    

 


10.4 Reliance
as Safe Harbor.


 


For
purposes of this Agreement, the Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed
to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding, to have had no reasonable
cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful, if his or her action is based on (i) the records or books of account of the Company,
or another enterprise, including financial statements, (ii) information supplied to Indemnitee by the officers of the Company or another
enterprise in the course of their duties, (iii) the advice of legal counsel for the Company or another enterprise, or of an independent
certified public accountant or an appraiser or other expert selected with reasonable care by the Company or another enterprise. The term
“another enterprise” as used in this Section shall mean any other corporation or any partnership, joint venture, trust, employee
benefit plan or other enterprise of which the Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, partner,
trustee, employee or agent. The provisions of this Section shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances
in which the Indemnitee may be deemed to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth herein. Whether or not the foregoing provisions
of this Section 10.4 are satisfied, it shall in any event be presumed that Indemnitee has at all times acted in good faith and in a manner
Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, or, with respect to any criminal Proceeding,
to have had no reasonable cause to believe Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. Anyone seeking to overcome this presumption shall
have the burden of proof and the burden of persuasion by clear and convincing evidence.


 


11. Remedies
of Indemnitee.


 


11.1 In
the event that (i) a determination is made pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification
under this Agreement, (ii) advancement of Expenses is not timely made pursuant to Section 8 of this Agreement, (iii) the determination
of indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9.2 of this Agreement and such determination shall not have
been made and delivered in a written opinion within sixty (60) days after receipt by the Company of the request for indemnification,
(iv) payment of indemnification is not made pursuant to Section 7 of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company
of a written request therefor, or (v) payment of indemnification is not made within thirty (30) days after a determination has been made
that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification or such determination is deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 9 or 10 of this
Agreement, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication in an appropriate court of the State of Delaware, or in any other court of
competent jurisdiction, of Indemnitee’s entitlement to such indemnification or advancement of Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines
or, when eligible hereunder, amounts paid in settlement. The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication.


 


11.2 In
the event that a determination shall have been made pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification,
any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial on the merits and Indemnitee
shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination.


 


11.3 If
a determination shall have been made or deemed to have been made pursuant to Section 9 or 10 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled
to indemnification, the Company shall be bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section, absent
(i) a misstatement by Indemnitee of a material fact, or an omission of a material fact necessary to make Indemnitee’s statement
not materially misleading, in connection with the request for indemnification, or (ii) prohibition of such indemnification under applicable
law.


 


11.4 The
Company shall be precluded from asserting in any judicial proceeding commenced pursuant to this Section that the procedures and presumptions
of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court that the Company is bound by all the provisions
of this Agreement.


 


11.5 In
the event that Indemnitee, pursuant to this Section, seeks a judicial adjudication of his or her rights under, or to recover damages
for breach of, this Agreement or any other agreement, including any other indemnification, contribution or advancement agreement, or
any provision of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company now or hereafter in effect, or for recovery under directors’
and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, Indemnitee shall be entitled to recover from the Company,
and shall be indemnified by the Company against, any and all expenses (of the kinds described in the definition of Expenses) actually
and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in such judicial adjudication, but only if Indemnitee prevails therein. If it shall be determined
in such judicial adjudication that Indemnitee is entitled to receive less than all of the indemnification or advancement of expenses
sought, the expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such judicial adjudication shall be appropriately prorated. In addition,
the Company shall, if so requested by Indemnitee, advance the foregoing expenses to Indemnitee, subject to and in accordance with Section
8.


 






    6


     


    

 


12. Procedure
Regarding Indemnification.


 


With
respect to any Proceedings, the Indemnitee, prior to taking any action with respect to such Proceeding, shall consult with the Company
as to the procedure to be followed in defending, settling, or compromising the Proceeding and may not consent to any settlement or compromise
of the Proceeding without the written consent of the Company (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The Company
shall be entitled to participate in defending, settling or compromising any Proceeding and to assume the defense of such Proceeding with
counsel of its choice and shall assume such defense if requested by the Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the election by, or obligation of,
the Company to assume the defense of a Proceeding, the Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the defense of such Proceeding
and to employ counsel of Indemnitee’s choice, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnitee
unless (i) the employment of such counsel has been authorized in writing by the Company, or (ii) the Indemnitee has reasonably concluded
that there may be defenses available to him or her which are different from or additional to those available to the Company (in which
latter case the Company shall not have the right to direct the defense of such Proceeding on behalf of the Indemnitee), in either of
which events the fees and expenses of not more than one additional firm of attorneys selected by the Indemnitee shall be borne by the
Company. If the Company assumes the defense of a Proceeding, then counsel for the Company and Indemnitee shall keep Indemnitee reasonably
informed of the status of the Proceeding and promptly send to Indemnitee copies of all documents filed or produced in the Proceeding,
and the Company shall not compromise or settle any such Proceeding without the written consent of the Indemnitee (which consent may not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed) if the relief provided shall be other than monetary damages and shall promptly notify the Indemnitee
of any settlement and the amount thereof.


 


13.
Non-Exclusivity; Survival of Rights; Insurance; Subrogation; Contribution.



 


13.1 The
rights of indemnification and to receive advancement of Expenses as provided by this Agreement shall not be deemed exclusive of any other
rights to which Indemnitee may at any time be entitled under applicable law, the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company,
any agreement, a vote of stockholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement
or any provision hereof shall be effective as to any Indemnitee with respect to any action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his
or her Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal.


 


13.2 To
the extent that the Company maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, employees,
agents or fiduciaries of the Company or of any other corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise
which such person serves at the request of the Company, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policy or policies in accordance with its
or their terms to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any such director, officer, employee, agent or fiduciary under such
policy or policies.


 








13.3 In
the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Company shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of
recovery of Indemnitee, who shall execute all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution
of such documents as are reasonably necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.


 


13.4 The
Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment of amounts otherwise indemnifiable hereunder if and to the extent
that Indemnitee has otherwise actually received such payment under any insurance policy, contract, agreement or otherwise.


 






    7


     


    

 


13.5 If
a determination is made that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, after Indemnitee submits a written request therefor, under
this Agreement, then in respect of any threatened, pending or completed Proceeding in which the Company is jointly liability with the
Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such Proceeding), the Company shall contribute to the amount of Expenses, judgments, fines and amounts
paid in settlement by the Indemnitee in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Company
on the one hand and the Indemnitee on the other hand from the transaction from which Proceeding arose, and (ii) the relative fault of
the Company on the one hand and of the Indemnitee on the other hand in connection with the events that resulted in such Expenses, judgments,
fines or amounts paid in settlement, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the
one hand and of the Indemnitee on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, the parties’ relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent the circumstances resulting in such Expenses, judgments,
fines or amounts paid in settlement. The Company agrees that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section
were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation that does not take into account the foregoing equitable considerations.
The determination as to the amount of the contribution, if any, shall be made by: (i) a court of competent jurisdiction upon the application
of both the Indemnitee and the Company (if the Proceeding had been brought in, and final determination had been rendered by such court);
(ii) the Board by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Disinterested Directors; or (iii) Independent Counsel, if a quorum is not
obtainable for purpose of (ii) above, or, even if obtainable, a quorum of Disinterested Directors so directs.


 


14. Duration
of Agreement.


 


This
Agreement shall continue during the period that the Indemnitee is a director, officer, or employee of the Company and shall continue
thereafter for so long as Indemnitee may be subject to any Proceeding by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status and throughout
the pendency of any Proceeding (including rights of appeal thereto) and/or any proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section
11 of this Agreement. This Agreement shall be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit
of Indemnitee and his or her spouse, heirs, executors, personal representatives and administrators. The Company shall require and cause
any successor (whether direct or indirect by purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise) to all, substantially all, or a substantial
part, of the business and/or assets of the Company, by written agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Indemnitee, expressly
to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform
if no such succession had taken place.





 


15. Severability.


 


If
any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever: (a) the
validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any
Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal
or unenforceable) shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby; and (b) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this
Agreement (including, without limitation, each portion of any Section of this Agreement containing any such provision held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable, that is not itself invalid, illegal or unenforceable) shall be construed so as to give effect to the intent
manifested by the provision held invalid, illegal or unenforceable.


 


16. Entire
Agreement.


 


This
Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Company and the Indemnitee with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes
all prior agreements, understanding, negotiations and discussion, both written and oral, between the parties hereto with respect to such
subject matter (the “Prior Agreements”); provided, however, that if this Agreement shall ever be held void or unenforceable
for any reasons whatsoever, and is not reformed pursuant to Section 15 hereof, then (i) this Agreement shall not be deemed to have superseded
any Prior Agreements; (ii) all of such Prior Agreements shall be deemed to be in full force and effect notwithstanding the execution
of this Agreement; and (iii) the Indemnitee shall be entitled to maximum indemnification benefits provided under any Prior Agreements,
as well as those provided under applicable law, the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Company, a vote of stockholders or
resolution of directors.

17. Exception
to Right of Indemnification or Advancement of Expenses.


 


17.1
Except as provided in Section 11.5, Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, judgments, penalties,
fines and amounts paid in settlement under this Agreement with respect to any Proceeding, or any claim therein, brought or made by Indemnitee
against the Company.


 


17.2
Indemnitee shall not be entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses under this Agreement with respect to any Proceeding, or
any claim therein, arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or
Company similar successor statute.


 





18. Covenant
Not to Sue; Limitation of Actions; Release of Claims.


 


No
legal action shall be brought and no cause of action shall be asserted by or on behalf of the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) against
the Indemnitee, his or her spouse, heirs, executors, personal representatives or administrators after the expiration of two (2) years
from the date of accrual of such cause of action and any claim or cause of action of the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) shall be
extinguished and deemed released unless asserted by the filing of a legal action within such two (2) year period; provided, however,
that if any shorter period of limitation is otherwise applicable to any such cause of action, such shorter period shall govern.


 


19. Identical
Counterparts.


 


This
Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original but all of which
together shall constitute one and the same Agreement.


 


20. Headings.


 


The
headings of the paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be deemed to constitute part of this Agreement
or to affect the construction thereof.


 


21. Modification
and Waiver.


 


No
supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by both of the parties hereto. No
waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed or shall constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether
or not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.


 


22. Notice
by Indemnitee.


 


Indemnitee
agrees promptly to notify the Company in writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information
or other document relating any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification or advancement of Expenses, judgments, penalties,
fines or amounts paid in settlement covered hereunder. The failure to notify the Company on a timely basis shall not constitute a waiver
of Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement, except to the extent that such failure or delay (i) causes the amounts paid or to
be paid by the Company to be greater than they otherwise would have been, (ii) adversely affects the Company’s ability to obtain
for itself or Indemnitee coverage or proceeds under any insurance policy available to the Company or Indemnitee, or (iii) otherwise results
in prejudice to the Company.

24. Governing
Law.


 


The
parties agree that this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware
applicable to contracts made and performed in that state without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of laws. The Company and
Indemnitee each hereby irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Delaware and the federal courts within
the State for all purposes in connection with any action or proceeding that arises out of or relates to this Agreement and agrees that
any action instituted under this Agreement shall be brought only in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware and
any Delaware State court within that District.


 


25. Mutual
Acknowledgment.


 


Both
the Company and Indemnitee acknowledge that, in certain instances, Federal law or applicable public policy may prohibit the Company from
indemnifying its directors and officers under this Agreement or otherwise. Indemnitee understands and acknowledges that the Company has
undertaken or may be required in the future in certain circumstances to undertake with the Securities and Exchange Commission to submit
the question of indemnification to a court for a determination of the Company’s right under public policy to indemnify Indemnitee.


 


26. Waiver
of Claims to Trust Account.


 


Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, Indemnitee hereby agrees that it does not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (each,
a “Claim”) in or to any monies in the trust account established in connection with the Company’s initial public offering
for the benefit of the Company and holders of shares issued in such offering, and hereby waives any Claim it may have in the future as
a result of, or arising out of, any services provided to the Company and will not seek recourse against such trust account for any reason
whatsoever.
