    3

to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account, and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account that it
may have now or in the future. In the event the Trustee has any Claim against the Company under this Agreement, including, without limitation,

This Agreement shall terminate as follows:


 


(a) If the
Trustee gives written notice to the Company that it desires to resign under this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable efforts

notifies the Trustee that a successor trustee has been appointed by the Company and has agreed to become subject to the terms of this
Agreement, the Trustee shall transfer the management of the Trust Account to the successor trustee, including but not limited to the transfer
of copies of the reports and statements relating to the Trust Account, whereupon this Agreement shall terminate; provided, however, that,
in the event that the Company does not locate a successor trustee within ninety (90) days of receipt of the resignation notice from the
Trustee, the Trustee may submit an application to have the Property deposited with any court in the State of New York or with the United
States District Court for the Southern District of New York and upon such deposit, the Trustee shall be immune from any liability whatsoever;
or


 


(b) At such
time that the Trustee has completed the liquidation of the Trust Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 1(i) hereof,
and distributed the Property in accordance with the provisions of the Termination Letter, this Agreement shall terminate except with respect
to Section 3(b) and Section 5.


 


7. Miscellaneous.


 


(a) The
Company and the Trustee will each restrict access to confidential information relating to funds being transferred to or from the Trust
Account to authorized persons. Each party must notify the other party immediately if it has reason to believe unauthorized persons may
have obtained access to such information, or of any change in its authorized personnel. In executing funds transfers, the Trustee will
rely upon all information supplied to it by the Company, including account names, account numbers, and all other identifying information
relating to a beneficiary, beneficiary’s bank, or intermediary bank. Except for any liability arising out of the Trustee’s
gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss, liability, or expense resulting from any

consent to the jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for purposes
of resolving any disputes hereunder. As to any claim, cross-claim, or counterclaim in any way relating to this Agreement, each party waives
the right to trial by jury.


 


(c) This
Agreement may be executed in several original or facsimile counterparts, each one of which shall constitute an original, and together
shall constitute but one instrument.


 


(d) This
Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except for
Sections 1(i) and 1(j) (which sections may not be modified, amended or deleted without the affirmative vote of the holders of at least
two thirds of the then outstanding Ordinary Shares in respect of which votes are cast at a duly convened general meeting of the Company;
provided that no such amendment will affect any Public Shareholder who has otherwise indicated his, her or its election to convert his,
her or its shares of Ordinary Shares in connection with a shareholder vote sought to amend this Agreement, including a corresponding change
to the Company’s MAA), this Agreement or any provision hereof may only be changed, amended or modified by a writing signed by each
of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no such change, amendment or modification may be made without the prior written consent
