RIGHTS
AGREEMENT


 


This
Rights Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of [*], 2021 between Neo Technology Acquisition Corporation,
a Delaware company, with offices at 800 3rd Avenue, Suite 2800, New York, NY 10022 (the “Company”), and Continental
Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York limited liability trust company, with offices at 1 State Street, 30th Floor, New York,
NY 10004 (the “Right Agent”).


 


WHEREAS,
the Company has received a firm commitment from Maxim Group LLC (“Maxim”), as representative of the several
underwriters, to purchase up to an aggregate of 4,600,000 units (including up to 600,000 units if the over-allotment option is exercised
in full or in part), each unit (“Unit”) comprised of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par
value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”) and one right to receive one-tenth of one share of Common Stock
(a “Public Right”) upon the happening of the triggering event described herein, and in connection therewith,
will issue and deliver up to an aggregate of 4,600,000 Public Rights upon consummation of such public offering, 600,000 of which are
attributable to the over-allotment option (“Public Offering”);


 


WHEREAS,
simultaneously with the consummation of the Public Offering, the Company will issue and deliver up to an aggregate of 318,400 rights
underlying private units, 24,000 of which are attributable to the over-allotment option (the “Private Rights”);


 


WHEREAS,
the Company may issue up to an additional 200,000 Rights, which will be identical to the Private Rights, in consideration of certain
working capital loans that may be made by Oasis Capital Management LLC, the Company’s sponsor, or the Company’s officers,
directors or affiliates (together with the Public Rights, the Private Rights, and along with such other rights as the Company issues
from time to time hereunder, the “Rights”);


 


WHEREAS,
the Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a Registration Statement on Form
S-1, File No. 333-[XX] (“Registration Statement”), for the registration, under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended (“Act”) of, among other securities, the Public Rights and the shares of Common Stock issuable to
the holders of the Public Rights;


 


WHEREAS,
the Company desires the Right Agent to act on behalf of the Company, and the Right Agent is willing to so act, in connection with the
issuance, registration, transfer and exchange of the Rights;


 


WHEREAS,
the Company desires to provide for the form and provisions of the Rights, the terms upon which they shall be issued, and the respective
rights, limitation of rights, and immunities of the Company, the Right Agent, and the holders of the Rights; and


 


WHEREAS,
all acts and things have been done and performed which are necessary to make the Rights, when executed on behalf of the Company and countersigned
by or on behalf of the Right Agent, as provided herein, the valid, binding and legal obligations of the Company, and to authorize the
execution and delivery of this Agreement.


 






    1 


     


    

 


NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:


 


	1.	Appointment
    of Right Agent. The Company hereby appoints the Right Agent to act as agent for the Company for the Rights, and the Right Agent hereby
    accepts such appointment and agrees to perform the same in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.


 


	2.	Rights.


 


	 	2.1.	Form
    of Right. Each Right shall be issued in registered form only, shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit A hereto, the provisions
    of which are incorporated herein and shall be signed by, or bear the facsimile signature of, the Chairman of the Board or Chief Executive
    Officer and Treasurer, Secretary or Assistant Secretary of the Company and shall bear a facsimile of the Company’s seal. In
    the event the person whose facsimile signature has been placed upon any Right shall have ceased to serve in the capacity in which
    such person signed the Right before such Right is issued, it may be issued with the same effect as if he or she had not ceased to
    be such at the date of issuance.


 


	 	2.2.	Effect
    of Countersignature. Unless and until countersigned by the Right Agent pursuant to this Agreement, a Right shall be invalid and of
    no effect and may not be exchanged for shares of Common Stock. 


 


	 	2.3.	Registration.


 


	 	2.3.1.	Right
    Register. The Right Agent shall maintain books (“Right Register”) for the registration of original issuance
    and the registration of transfer of the Rights. Upon the initial issuance of the Rights, the Right Agent shall issue and register
    the Rights in the names of the respective holders thereof in such denominations and otherwise in accordance with instructions delivered
    to the Right Agent by the Company.


 


	 	2.3.2.	Registered
    Holder. Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Right, the Company and the Right Agent may deem and treat the
    person in whose name such Right shall be registered upon the Right Register (“registered holder”) as the
    absolute owner of such Right and of each Right represented thereby (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing on
    the Right Certificate made by anyone other than the Company or the Right Agent), for the purpose of the exchange thereof, and for
    all other purposes, and neither the Company nor the Right Agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.


 






    	 	2	 



     

    

 


	 	2.4.	Detachability
    of Rights. The securities comprising the Units, including the Rights, will not be separately transferable until the fifty-second
    (52nd) day after the date hereof unless Maxim informs the Company of its decision to allow earlier separate trading, but in no event
    will separate trading of the securities comprising the Units begin until (i) the Company files a Current Report on Form 8-K which
    includes an audited balance sheet reflecting the receipt by the Company of the gross proceeds of the Public Offering including the
    proceeds received by the Company from the exercise of the over-allotment option, if the over-allotment option is exercised on the
    date hereof, and (ii) the Company issues a press release and files a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing when such separate trading
    shall begin.


 


	3.	Terms
    and Exchange of Rights.


 


	 	3.1.	Rights.
    Each Right shall entitle the holder thereof to receive one-tenth of one share of Common Stock upon the happening of the Exchange
    Event (described below). No additional consideration shall be paid by a holder of Rights in order to receive his, her or its shares
    of Common Stock upon the Exchange Event as the purchase price for such shares of Common Stock has been included in the purchase price
    for the Units. In no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Rights or issue fractional  shares of Common
    Stock.


 


	 	3.2.	Exchange
    Event. The Exchange Event shall be the Company’s consummation of an initial Business Combination (as defined in the Company’s
    Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association).


 


	 	3.3.	Exchange
    of Rights.


 


	 	3.3.1.	Issuance
    of Certificates. As soon as practicable upon the occurrence of the Exchange Event, the Company shall direct holders of the Rights
    to return their Rights Certificates to the Right Agent. If the Company is not the surviving entity in a Business Combination, the
    holder of Rights must affirmatively elect to such conversion. Upon receipt of a valid Rights Certificate, the Company shall issue
    to the registered holder of such Right(s) a certificate or certificates for the number of full shares of Common Stock to which he,
    she or it is entitled, registered in such name or names as may be directed by him, her or it. Notwithstanding the foregoing, or any
    provision contained in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the Rights. The
    Company shall not issue fractional shares upon exchange of Rights. At the time of the Exchange Event, the Company will instruct the
    Right Agent to round down to the nearest whole  share of Common Stock or otherwise inform it how fractional shares will be addressed
    in accordance with Delaware General Corporation Law. 


 


	 	3.3.2.	Valid
    Issuance. All shares of Common Stock issued upon an Exchange Event in conformity with this Agreement shall be validly issued, fully
    paid and nonassessable.


 






    	 	3	 



     

    

 


	 	3.3.3.	Date
    of Issuance. Each person in whose name any such certificate for  shares of Common Stock is issued shall for all purposes be
    deemed to have become the holder of record of such shares on the date of the Exchange Event, irrespective of the date of delivery
    of such certificate.


 


	 	3.3.4.	Company
    Not Surviving Following Exchange Event. If the Exchange Event results in the Company not continuing as a publicly held reporting
    entity, the definitive agreement will provide for the holders of Rights to receive the same per share consideration as the holders
    of the Common Stock will receive in with the Exchange Event, for the number of shares such holder is entitled to pursuant to Section
    3.1 above.


 


	 	3.4.	Duration
    of Rights. If the Exchange Event does not occur within 12 months from the closing of the Public Offering (or up to 21 months from
    the closing of the Public Offering if the Company extends the period of time to consummate a Business Combination, as described in
    the Registration Statement), and such Business Combination has not yet been consummated within the applicable time period, the Rights
    shall expire and shall be worthless; provided that, for as long as any of the Maxim Right are held by Maxim, or its designees or
    affiliates, such Rights may not be converted after five years, from the effective date of the Registration Statement.


 


	4.	Transfer
    and Exchange of Rights.


 


	 	4.1.	Registration
    of Transfer. The Right Agent shall register the transfer, from time to time, of any outstanding Right upon the Right Register, upon
    surrender of such Right for transfer, properly endorsed with signatures properly guaranteed and accompanied by appropriate instructions
    for transfer. Upon any such transfer, a new Right representing an equal aggregate number of Rights shall be issued and the old Right
    shall be cancelled by the Right Agent. The Rights so cancelled shall be delivered by the Right Agent to the Company from time to
    time upon request.


 


	 	4.2.	Procedure
    for Surrender of Rights. Rights may be surrendered to the Right Agent, together with a written request for exchange or transfer,
    and thereupon the Right Agent shall issue in exchange therefor one or more new Rights as requested by the registered holder of the
    Rights so surrendered, representing an equal aggregate number of Rights; provided, however, that in the event that a Right surrendered
    for transfer bears a restrictive legend, the Right Agent shall not cancel such Right and issue new Rights in exchange therefor until
    the Right Agent has received an opinion of counsel for the Company stating that such transfer may be made and indicating whether
    the new Rights must also bear a restrictive legend.


 


	 	4.3.	Fractional
    Rights. The Right Agent shall not be required to effect any registration of transfer or exchange which will result in the issuance
    of a Right Certificate for a fraction of a Right.


 


	 	4.4.	Service
    Charges. No service charge shall be made for any exchange or registration of transfer of Rights.


 






    	 	4	 



     

    

 


	 	4.5.	Adjustments
    to Conversion Ratios. The number of shares of Common Stock that the holders of Rights are entitled to receive as a result of the
    occurrence of an Exchange Event shall be equitably adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any share split, reverse share
    split, share dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with
    respect to the  shares of Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Exchange Event.


 


	 	4.6.	Right
    Execution and Countersignature. The Right Agent is hereby authorized to countersign and to deliver, in accordance with the terms
    of this Agreement, the Rights required to be issued pursuant to the provisions of this Section 4, and the Company, whenever required
    by the Right Agent, will supply the Right Agent with Rights duly executed on behalf of the Company for such purpose.


 


	5.	Other
    Provisions Relating to Rights of Holders of Rights.


 


	 	5.1.	No
    Rights as Shareholder. Until exchange of a Right for  shares of Common Stock as provided for herein, a Right does not entitle
    the registered holder thereof to any of the rights of a shareholder of the Company, including, without limitation, the right to receive
    dividends, or other distributions, exercise any preemptive rights to vote or to consent or to receive notice as shareholders in respect
    of the meetings of shareholders or the election of directors of the Company or any other matter.


 


	 	5.2.	Lost,
    Stolen, Mutilated, or Destroyed Rights. If any Right is lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed, the Company and the Right Agent may
    on such terms as to indemnity or otherwise as they may in their discretion impose (which shall, in the case of a mutilated Right,
    include the surrender thereof), issue a new Right of like denomination, tenor, and date as the Right so lost, stolen, mutilated,
    or destroyed. Any such new Right shall constitute a substitute contractual obligation of the Company, whether or not the allegedly
    lost, stolen, mutilated, or destroyed Right shall be at any time enforceable by anyone.


 


	 	5.3.	Reservation
    of  shares of Common Stock. The Company shall at all times reserve and keep available a number of its authorized but unissued
     shares of Common Stock that will be sufficient to permit the exchange of all outstanding Rights issued pursuant to this Agreement.


 


	6.	Concerning
    the Right Agent and Other Matters.


 


	 	6.1.	Payment
    of Taxes. The Company will from time to time promptly pay all taxes and charges that may be imposed upon the Company or the Right
    Agent in respect of the issuance or delivery of  shares of Common Stock upon the exchange of Rights, but the Company shall not
    be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in respect of the Rights or such shares.


 


	 	6.2.	Resignation,
    Consolidation, or Merger of Right Agent.


 






    	 	5	 



     

    

 


	 	6.2.1.	Appointment
    of Successor Right Agent. The Right Agent, or any successor to it hereafter appointed, may resign its duties and be discharged from
    all further duties and liabilities hereunder after giving sixty (60) days’ notice in writing to the Company. If the office
    of the Right Agent becomes vacant by resignation or incapacity to act or otherwise, the Company shall appoint in writing a successor
    Right Agent in place of the Right Agent. If the Company shall fail to make such appointment within a period of 30 days after it has
    been notified in writing of such resignation or incapacity by the Right Agent or by the holder of the Right (who shall, with such
    notice, submit his, her or its Right for inspection by the Company), then the holder of any Right may apply to the Supreme Court
    of the State of New York for the County of New York for the appointment of a successor Right Agent at the Company’s cost. Any
    successor Right Agent, whether appointed by the Company or by such court, shall be a corporation organized and existing under the
    laws of the State of New York, in good standing and having its principal office in the Borough of Manhattan, City and State of New
    York, and authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state
    authority. After appointment, any successor Right Agent shall be vested with all the authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties,
    and obligations of its predecessor Right Agent with like effect as if originally named as Right Agent hereunder, without any further
    act or deed; but if for any reason it becomes necessary or appropriate, the predecessor Right Agent shall execute and deliver, at
    the expense of the Company, an instrument transferring to such successor Right Agent all the authority, powers, and rights of such
    predecessor Right Agent hereunder; and upon request of any successor Right Agent the Company shall make, execute, acknowledge, and
    deliver any and all instruments in writing for more fully and effectually vesting in and confirming to such successor Right Agent
    all such authority, powers, rights, immunities, duties, and obligations.


 


	 	6.2.2.	Notice
    of Successor Right Agent. In the event a successor Right Agent shall be appointed, the Company shall give notice thereof to the predecessor
    Right Agent and the transfer agent for the  shares of Common Stock not later than the effective date of any such appointment.


 


	 	6.2.3.	Merger
    or Consolidation of Right Agent. Any corporation into which the Right Agent may be merged or with which it may be consolidated or
    any corporation resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Right Agent shall be a party shall be the successor Right
    Agent under this Agreement without any further act.


 


	 	6.3.	Fees
    and Expenses of Right Agent.


 


	 	6.3.1.	Remuneration.
    The Company agrees to pay the Right Agent reasonable remuneration for its services as such Right Agent hereunder and will reimburse
    the Right Agent upon demand for all expenditures that the Right Agent may reasonably incur in the execution of its duties hereunder.


 






    	 	6	 



     

    

 


	 	6.3.2.	Further
    Assurances. The Company agrees to perform, execute, acknowledge, and deliver or cause to be performed, executed, acknowledged, and
    delivered all such further and other acts, instruments, and assurances as may reasonably be required by the Right Agent for the carrying
    out or performing of the provisions of this Agreement.


 


	 	6.4.	Liability
    of Right Agent.


 


	 	6.4.1.	Reliance
    on Company Statement. Whenever in the performance of its duties under this Agreement, the Right Agent shall deem it necessary or
    desirable that any fact or matter be proved or established by the Company prior to taking or suffering any action hereunder, such
    fact or matter (unless other evidence in respect thereof be herein specifically prescribed) may be deemed to be conclusively proved
    and established by a statement signed by the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer and delivered to the Right Agent.
    The Right Agent may rely upon such statement for any action taken or suffered in good faith by it pursuant to the provisions of this
    Agreement.


 


	 	6.4.2.	Indemnity.
    The Right Agent shall be liable hereunder only for its own gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith. Subject to Section
    6.6, the Company agrees to indemnify the Right Agent and save it harmless against any and all liabilities, including judgments, costs
    and reasonable counsel fees, for anything done or omitted by the Right Agent in the execution of this Agreement except as a result
    of the Right Agent’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, or bad faith.


 


	 	6.4.3.	Exclusions.
    The Right Agent shall have no responsibility with respect to the validity of this Agreement or with respect to the validity or execution
    of any Right (except its countersignature thereof); nor shall it be responsible for any breach by the Company of any covenant or
    condition contained in this Agreement or in any Right; nor shall it by any act hereunder be deemed to make any representation or
    warranty as to the authorization or reservation of any  shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Agreement or any
    Right or as to whether any shares of Common Stock will, when issued, be valid and fully paid and nonassessable.


 


	 	6.5.	Acceptance
    of Agency. The Right Agent hereby accepts the agency established by this Agreement and agrees to perform the same upon the terms
    and conditions herein set forth.


 


	 	6.6.	Waiver.
    The Right Agent hereby waives any right of set-off or any other right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”)
    in, or to any distribution of, the Trust Account (as defined in that certain Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated as of the
    date hereof, by and between the Company and the Right Agent as trustee thereunder) and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement,
    payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.

    Any notice, statement or demand authorized by this Agreement to be given or made by the Right Agent or by the holder of any Right
    to or on the Company shall be sufficiently given when so delivered if by hand or overnight delivery or if sent by certified mail

	 	7.3.	Applicable
    Law. The validity, interpretation, and performance of this Agreement and of the Rights shall be governed in all respects by the laws
    of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive
    laws of another jurisdiction. The Company hereby agrees that any action, proceeding or claim against it arising out of or relating

    service and shall be legal and binding upon the Company in any action, proceeding or claim.


 


	 	7.4.	Persons
    Having Rights under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement expressed and nothing that may be implied from any of the provisions

    the registered holders of the Rights and, for the purposes of Sections 3.1, 3.2, 7.4 and 7.8 hereof, Maxim, any right, remedy, or
    claim under or by reason of this Agreement or of any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise, or agreement hereof. Maxim shall
    be deemed to be a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement with respect to Sections 3.1, 3.2, 7.4 and 7.8 hereof. All covenants,
    conditions, stipulations, promises, and agreements contained in this Agreement shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the
    parties hereto (and Maxim with respect to Sections 3.1, 3.2, 7.4 and 7.8 hereof) and their successors and assigns and of the registered
    holders of the Rights.


 


	 	7.5.	Examination
    of this Agreement. A copy of this Agreement shall be available at all reasonable times at the office of the Right Agent in the Borough

    holder to submit his, her or its Right for inspection by it.


 


	 	7.6.	Counterparts.
    This 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.


 


	 	7.7.	Effect
    of Headings. The Section headings herein are for convenience only and are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the interpretation
    thereof.


 


	 	7.8.	Amendments.
    This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto without the consent of any registered holder for the purpose of curing any ambiguity,
    or of curing, correcting or supplementing any defective provision contained herein or adding or changing any other provisions with
    respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement as the parties may deem necessary or desirable and that the parties
    deem shall not adversely affect the interest of the registered holders. All other modifications or amendments shall require the written
    consent or vote of the registered holders of a majority of the then outstanding Rights. The provisions of this Section 7.8 may not
    be modified, amended or deleted without the prior written consent of Maxim.


 


	 	7.9.	Severability.
    This Agreement shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision hereof shall not affect
    the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or of any other term or provision hereof. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid
    or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Agreement a provision as
    similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.
