the Company and/or a director on the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), and each Insider hereby consents to being named in the Prospectus, road show and any other materials as an officer and/or director of the

 4.    Failure to Consummate a Business Combination; Trust Account
Waiver. 
 (a)    The Sponsor and each Insider hereby agree, with respect to itself, herself or himself, as
applicable, that, in the event that the Company fails to consummate its initial Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, the Sponsor and each Insider shall take all

interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay taxes, if any (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses) divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares, which
redemption shall completely extinguish Public Shareholders’ rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject
to the approval of the Company’s remaining shareholders and the Board, liquidate and dissolve, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other

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 taxes, if any, divided by the number of the then-outstanding Public Shares.

or he, as applicable, has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or any other asset of the Company as a result of any liquidation of the Company with respect to the Founder Shares held by it, her
or him, if any. The Sponsor and each Insider, with respect to itself, herself or himself, as applicable, hereby further waive, with respect to any Founder Shares and Public Shares held by it, her or him, as applicable, any redemption rights it, she
or he may have in connection with a Business Combination, including, without limitation, any such rights available in the context of a shareholder vote to approve such Business Combination or a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Amended
and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association (i) that would modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to provide holders of the Public Shares the right to have their shares redeemed in connection with an initial
Business Combination or to redeem one-hundred percent (100%) of the Public Shares if the Company does not complete an initial Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Amended and Restated
Memorandum and Articles of Association or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to the rights of holders of Public Shares (although the Sponsor and the Insiders shall be entitled to liquidation rights with respect to any Public

 9.    Termination. This Letter Agreement shall terminate on the earlier

10.    Indemnification. 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 Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, 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 (except for the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm) or
(ii) any prospective target business with which the Company has discussed entering into a transaction 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 for services rendered or products sold to the Company or a Target do not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00
per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account if less than $10.00 per Public Share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case,
net of interest that may be withdrawn to pay the Company’s tax obligations, (y) shall not apply to any claims by a third party or a Target who 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 fifteen (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. 

11.    Forfeiture of Founder Shares. To the extent that the Underwriters do not exercise their option to purchase
additional Units within forty-five (45) days from the date of the Prospectus in full (as further described in the Prospectus), the Sponsor agrees to automatically surrender to the Company for no consideration, for cancellation at no cost, an
aggregate number of Founder Shares so that the number of Founder Shares will equal twenty percent (20%) of the sum of the total number of Ordinary Shares and Founder Shares outstanding at such time. The Sponsor and each Insider, with respect to
itself, herself or himself, as applicable, further agree that, to the extent that the size of the Public Offering is increased or decreased, the Company will effect a share capitalization or a share repurchase, as applicable, with respect to the
Founder Shares immediately prior to the consummation of the Public Offering in such amount as to maintain the number of Founder Shares at twenty percent (20%) of the sum of the total number of Ordinary Shares and Founder Shares outstanding at such
time.

parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or the

13.    Assignment. No party hereto may assign either this Letter Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or
obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties. Any purported assignment in violation of this paragraph shall be void and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported
assignee. This Letter Agreement shall be binding on the Sponsor, each of the Insiders and each of their respective successors, heirs, personal representatives and permitted assigns and transferees. 

14.    Counterparts. This Letter Agreement may be executed in any number of original or facsimile counterparts, and
each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Agreement and shall not affect the interpretation thereof.
