Exhibit 10.5


 


FORM
OF INDEMNITY AGREEMENT 


 


THIS INDEMNITY AGREEMENT (this
 “Agreement”) is made as of July 28, 2021, by and between METALS ACQUISITION CORP, a Cayman Islands exempted
company (the “Company”), and _____________ (“Indemnitee”).


 


RECITALS


 


WHEREAS, highly competent
persons have become more reluctant to serve publicly-held corporations as directors, officers or in other capacities unless they are provided
with adequate protection through insurance or adequate indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising
out of their service to and activities on behalf of such corporations;


 


WHEREAS, the board
of directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that, in order to attract and retain qualified individuals,
the Company will attempt to maintain on an ongoing basis, at its sole expense, liability insurance to protect persons serving the Company
and its subsidiaries, if any, from certain liabilities;


 


WHEREAS, directors,
officers and other persons in service to corporations or business enterprises are being increasingly subjected to expensive and time-consuming
litigation relating to, among other things, matters that traditionally would have been brought only against the Company or business enterprise
itself;


 


WHEREAS, the amended
and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company (the “Charter”) require indemnification of
the officers and directors of the Company, Indemnitee may also be entitled to indemnification pursuant to applicable Cayman Islands law
and the Charter provides that the indemnification provisions set forth therein are not exclusive, and thereby contemplates that contracts
may be entered into between the Company and members of the Board, officers and other persons with respect to indemnification, hold harmless,
exoneration, advancement and reimbursement rights;


 


WHEREAS, the uncertainties
relating to such insurance and to indemnification have increased the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons;


 


WHEREAS, the Board
has determined that the increased difficulty in attracting and retaining such persons is detrimental to the best interests of the Company’s
shareholders and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection in the future;


 


WHEREAS, it is reasonable,
prudent and necessary for the Company contractually to obligate itself to indemnify, hold harmless, exonerate and to advance expenses
on behalf of, such persons to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law so that they will serve or continue to serve the Company
free from undue concern that they will not be so protected against liabilities;


 






     


     


    

 


WHEREAS, this Agreement
is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Charter and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, and shall not be deemed a substitute
therefor, nor to diminish or abrogate any rights of Indemnitee thereunder; and


 


WHEREAS, Indemnitee
may not be willing to serve as an officer or director, advisor or in another capacity, without adequate protection, and the Company desires
Indemnitee to serve in such capacity. Indemnitee is willing to serve, continue to serve and to take on additional service for or on behalf
of the Company on the condition that he or she be so indemnified;

consideration of the premises and the covenants contained herein, the Company and Indemnitee do hereby covenant and agree as follows:

a party to or a participant (as a witness, deponent or otherwise) in any Proceeding, other than a Proceeding by or in the right of
the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status. Pursuant to this Section 3,
Indemnitee shall be indemnified, held harmless and exonerated against all Expenses, judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties and
amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect
of such Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement) actually, and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on
his or her behalf in connection with such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in
a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and, in the case of a criminal
Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.


 






     


     


    

 


4. INDEMNITY IN PROCEEDINGS
BY OR IN THE RIGHT OF THE COMPANY. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company shall indemnify, hold harmless and
exonerate Indemnitee in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4 if Indemnitee was, is, or is threatened to be made, a
party to or a participant (as a witness, deponent or otherwise) in any Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment
in its favor by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status. Pursuant to this Section 4, Indemnitee shall be indemnified, held
harmless and exonerated against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection with
such Proceeding or any claim, issue or matter therein, if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed
to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company. No indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration for Expenses shall be made
under this Section 4 in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which Indemnitee shall have been finally adjudged by a court
to be liable to the Company, unless and only to the extent that any court in which the Proceeding was brought or the Cayman Court shall
determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, Indemnitee is
fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification, to be held harmless or to exoneration.


 


5. INDEMNIFICATION FOR
EXPENSES OF A PARTY WHO IS WHOLLY OR PARTLY SUCCESSFUL. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement except for Section
27, to the extent that Indemnitee was or is, by reason of Indemnitee’s Corporate Status, a party to (or a participant in) and
is successful, on the merits or otherwise, in any Proceeding or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, in whole or in part,
the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee against all Expenses
actually and reasonably incurred by him or her 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, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee against all Expenses actually
and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection with each successfully resolved claim, issue or matter. If
Indemnitee is not wholly successful in such Proceeding, the Company also shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify,
hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee against all Expenses reasonably incurred in connection with a claim, issue or matter related to
any claim, issue, or matter on which Indemnitee was successful. For purposes of this Section and without limitation, the termination of
any claim, issue or matter in such a Proceeding by dismissal, with or without prejudice, shall be deemed to be a successful result as
to such claim, issue or matter.


 


6. INDEMNIFICATION
FOR EXPENSES OF A WITNESS. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement except for Section 27, to the extent
that Indemnitee is, by reason of his or her Corporate Status, a witness or deponent in any Proceeding to which Indemnitee is not a
party, he or she shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be indemnified, held harmless and exonerated against all
Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by him or her or on his or her behalf in connection therewith.


 






     


     


    

 


7. ADDITIONAL INDEMNIFICATION,
HOLD HARMLESS AND EXONERATION RIGHTS. Notwithstanding any limitation in Sections 3, 4, or 5 and except for Section
27, the Company shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee if Indemnitee
is a party to or threatened to be made a party to any Proceeding (including a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company to procure
a judgment in its favor) against all Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments
and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such Expenses, judgments, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement)
actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with the Proceeding. No indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration rights
shall be available under this Section 7 on account of Indemnitee’s conduct which constitutes a breach of Indemnitee’s
duty of loyalty to the Company or its shareholders or is an act or omission not in good faith or which involves intentional misconduct
or a knowing violation of the law.


 


8. CONTRIBUTION IN THE
EVENT OF JOINT LIABILITY.


 


(a) To the fullest extent permissible
under applicable law, if the indemnification, hold harmless and/or exoneration rights provided for in this Agreement are unavailable to
Indemnitee in whole or in part for any reason whatsoever, the Company, in lieu of indemnifying, holding harmless or exonerating Indemnitee,
shall pay, in the first instance, the entire amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties, amounts
paid or to be paid in settlement and/or for Expenses, in connection with any Proceeding without requiring Indemnitee to contribute to
such payment, and the Company hereby waives and relinquishes any right of contribution it may have at any time against Indemnitee.


 


(b) The Company shall not enter
into any settlement of any Proceeding in which the Company is jointly liable with Indemnitee (or would be if joined in such Proceeding)
unless such settlement provides for a full and final release of all claims asserted against Indemnitee.


 


(c) The Company hereby agrees
to fully indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate Indemnitee from any claims for contribution which may be brought by officers, directors
or employees of the Company other than Indemnitee who may be jointly liable with Indemnitee.


 


9. EXCLUSIONS. Notwithstanding
any provision in this Agreement except for Section 27, the Company shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make any indemnification,
advance expenses, hold harmless or exoneration payment in connection with any claim made against Indemnitee:


 


(a) for which payment has actually
been received by or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity or advancement provision or otherwise, except
with respect to any excess beyond the amount actually received under any insurance policy, contract, agreement, other indemnity or advancement
provision or otherwise;


 


(b) for an accounting of profits
made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of the Company within the meaning of Section 16(b)
of the Exchange Act (or any successor rule) or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law; or


 






     


     


    

 


(c) except as otherwise provided
in Sections 14(e)-(f) hereof, prior to a Change in Control, in connection with any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated
by Indemnitee, including any Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or its directors,
officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) the Board authorized the Proceeding (or any part of any Proceeding) prior to its
initiation or (ii) the Company provides the indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration payment, in its sole discretion, pursuant to
the powers vested in the Company under applicable law. Indemnitee shall seek payments or advances from the Company only to the extent
that such payments or advances are unavailable from any insurance policy of the Company covering Indemnitee.


 


10. ADVANCES OF EXPENSES;
DEFENSE OF CLAIM.


 


(a) Notwithstanding any provision
of this Agreement to the contrary except for Section 27, and to the fullest extent not prohibited by applicable law, the Company
shall pay the Expenses incurred by Indemnitee (or reasonably expected by Indemnitee to be incurred by Indemnitee within three months)
in connection with any Proceeding within ten (10) days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements requesting such advances
from time to time, prior to the final disposition of any Proceeding. Advances shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unsecured
and interest free. Advances shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be made without regard to Indemnitee’s ability to repay
the Expenses and without regard to Indemnitee’s ultimate entitlement to be indemnified, held harmless or exonerated under the other
provisions of this Agreement. Advances shall include any and all reasonable Expenses incurred pursuing a Proceeding to enforce this right
of advancement, including Expenses incurred preparing and forwarding statements to the Company to support the advances claimed. To the
fullest extent required by applicable law, such payments of Expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made
only upon the Company’s receipt of an undertaking, by or on behalf of Indemnitee, to repay the advanced amounts to the extent that
it is ultimately determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, held harmless or exonerated by the Company under the provisions
of this Agreement, the Charter, applicable law or otherwise. This Section 10(a) shall not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee
for which an indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration payment is excluded pursuant to Section 9.


 


(b) The Company will be entitled
to participate in the Proceeding at its own expense.


 


(c) The Company shall not settle
any action, claim or Proceeding (in whole or in part) which would impose any Expense, judgment, fine, penalty or limitation on Indemnitee
without Indemnitee’s prior written consent.


 






     


     


    

 


11. PROCEDURE FOR NOTIFICATION
AND APPLICATION FOR INDEMNIFICATION.


 


(a) Indemnitee agrees to
notify promptly the Company in writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or
other document relating to any Proceeding or matter which may be subject to indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration
rights, or advancement of Expenses covered hereunder. The failure of Indemnitee to so notify the Company shall not relieve the
Company of any obligation which it may have to Indemnitee under this Agreement, or otherwise.


 


(b) Indemnitee may deliver to
the Company a written application to indemnify, hold harmless or exonerate Indemnitee in accordance with this Agreement. Such application(s)
may be delivered from time to time and at such time(s) as Indemnitee deems appropriate in his or her sole discretion. Following such a
written application for indemnification by Indemnitee, Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification shall be determined according
to Section 12(a) of this Agreement.


 


12. PROCEDURE UPON APPLICATION
FOR INDEMNIFICATION.


 


(a) A determination, if required
by applicable law, with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification shall be made in the specific case by one of the
following methods: (i) if no Change in Control has occurred, (x) by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than
a quorum of the Board, (y) by a committee of Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum of the Board, or (z) if there are
no Disinterested Directors, or if such Disinterested Directors so direct, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a
copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; or (ii) if a Change in Control has occurred, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion
to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee. The Company promptly will advise Indemnitee in writing with respect to
any determination that Indemnitee is or is not entitled to indemnification, including a description of any reason or basis for which indemnification
has been denied. 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 reasonably 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 reasonable 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.


 


(b) In the event the
determination of entitlement to indemnification is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 12(a) hereof, the
Independent Counsel shall be selected as provided in this Section 12(b). The Independent Counsel shall be selected by
Indemnitee (unless Indemnitee shall request that such selection be made by the Board), and Indemnitee shall give written notice to
the Company advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected and certifying that the Independent Counsel so
selected meets the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement. If the
Independent Counsel is selected by the Board, the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him or her of the
identity of the Independent Counsel so selected and certifying that the Independent Counsel so selected meets the requirements of
 “Independent Counsel” as defined in Section 2 of this Agreement. In either event, Indemnitee or the Company, as
the case may be, may, within ten (10) days after such written notice of selection shall have been received, deliver to the Company
or to Indemnitee, as the case may be, a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted
only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not meet the requirements of “Independent Counsel” as
defined in Section 2 of this Agreement, and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such
assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection
is so made and substantiated, the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such
objection is withdrawn or a court of competent jurisdiction has determined that such objection is without merit. If, within twenty
(20) days after submission by Indemnitee of a written request for indemnification pursuant to Section 11(a) hereof, no
Independent Counsel shall have been selected and not objected to, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Cayman Court 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 the Cayman Court, and the person with respect to
whom all objections are so resolved or the person so appointed shall act as Independent Counsel under Section 12(a) hereof.
Upon the due commencement of any judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to Section 14(a) 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).


 






     


     


    

 


(c) The Company agrees to pay
the reasonable fees and expenses of Independent Counsel and to fully indemnify and hold harmless such Independent Counsel against any
and all Expenses, claims, liabilities and damages arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its engagement pursuant hereto.


 


13. PRESUMPTIONS AND EFFECT
OF CERTAIN PROCEEDINGS.


 


(a) In making a determination
with respect to entitlement to indemnification hereunder, the person, 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
11(b) of this Agreement, and the Company shall have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making
by any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption. Neither the failure of the Company (including by the
Disinterested Directors or Independent Counsel) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of any action pursuant to this
Agreement that indemnification is proper in the circumstances because Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct, nor an actual
determination by the Company (including by the Disinterested Directors or Independent Counsel) that Indemnitee has not met such applicable
standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct.


 


(b) If the person, persons
or entity empowered or selected under Section 12 of this Agreement to determine whether Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification shall not have made a determination within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company of the request therefor,
the requisite determination of entitlement to indemnification shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, 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) a final judicial determination that any or all such indemnification is expressly prohibited under
applicable law; provided, however, that such 30-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional
fifteen (15) days, if the person, persons or entity making the determination with respect to entitlement to indemnification in good
faith requires such additional time for the obtaining or evaluating of documentation and/or information relating thereto.


 






     


     


    

 



 


(c) 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 Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.


 


(d) For purposes of any determination
of good faith, Indemnitee shall be deemed to have acted in good faith if Indemnitee’s action is based on the records or books of
account of the Enterprise, including financial statements, or on information supplied to Indemnitee by the directors, trustees, general
partners, managers or managing members of the Enterprise in the course of their duties, or on the advice of legal counsel for the Enterprise,
its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager or managing member of the Enterprise, or on information
or records given or reports made to the Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager
or managing member of the Enterprise, by an independent certified public accountant or by an appraiser or other expert selected by the
Enterprise, its Board, any committee of the Board or any director, trustee, general partner, manager or managing member. The provisions
of this Section 13(d) shall not be deemed to be exclusive or to limit in any way the other circumstances in which Indemnitee may
be deemed or found to have met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this Agreement.


 


(e) The knowledge and/or actions,
or failure to act, of any other director, officer, trustee, partner, manager, managing member, fiduciary, agent or employee of the Enterprise
shall not be imputed to Indemnitee for purposes of determining the right to indemnification under this Agreement.


 


14. REMEDIES OF INDEMNITEE.


 


(a) In the event that (i) a
determination is made pursuant to Section 12 of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification under this Agreement,
(ii) advancement of Expenses, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, is not timely made pursuant to Section 10 of
this Agreement, (iii) no determination of entitlement to indemnification shall have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) of this
Agreement within thirty (30) days after receipt by the Company of the request for indemnification, (iv) payment of indemnification is
not made pursuant to Sections 5, 6, 7 or the last sentence of Section 12(a) of this Agreement within ten
(10) days after receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, (v) a contribution payment is not made in a timely manner pursuant
to Section 8 of this Agreement, (vi) payment of indemnification pursuant to Section 3 or 4 of this Agreement is
not made within ten (10) days after a determination has been made that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, or (vii) payment to
Indemnitee pursuant to any hold harmless or exoneration rights under this Agreement or otherwise is not made within ten (10) days after
receipt by the Company of a written request therefor, Indemnitee shall be entitled to an adjudication by the Cayman Court to such indemnification,
hold harmless, exoneration, contribution or advancement rights. Alternatively, Indemnitee, at his or her option, may seek an award in
arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Mediation Procedures of the American
Arbitration Association. Except as set forth herein, the provisions of Cayman Islands law (without regard to its conflict of laws rules)
shall apply to any such arbitration. The Company shall not oppose Indemnitee’s right to seek any such adjudication or award in
arbitration.


 






     


     


    

 


(b) In the event that a determination
shall have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification, any judicial
proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 shall be conducted in all respects as a de novo trial, or arbitration,
on the merits and Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of that adverse determination. In any judicial proceeding or arbitration
commenced pursuant to this Section 14, Indemnitee shall be presumed to be entitled to be indemnified, held harmless, exonerated
to receive advances of Expenses under this Agreement and the Company shall have the burden of proving Indemnitee is not entitled to be
indemnified, held harmless, exonerated and to receive advances of Expenses, as the case may be, and the Company may not refer to or introduce
into evidence any determination pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement adverse to Indemnitee for any purpose. If Indemnitee
commences a judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to this Section 14, Indemnitee shall not be required to reimburse the Company
for any advances pursuant to Section 10 until a final determination is made with respect to Indemnitee’s entitlement to indemnification
(as to which all rights of appeal have been exhausted or lapsed).


 


(c) If a determination shall
have been made pursuant to Section 12(a) of this Agreement that Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification, the Company shall be
bound by such determination in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14, 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) a prohibition of such indemnification under applicable law.


 


(d) The Company shall be precluded
from asserting in any judicial proceeding or arbitration commenced pursuant to this Section 14 that the procedures and presumptions
of this Agreement are not valid, binding and enforceable and shall stipulate in any such court or before any such arbitrator that the
Company is bound by all the provisions of this Agreement.


 


(e) The Company shall
indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee to the fullest extent permitted by law against all Expenses and, if requested by Indemnitee,
shall (within ten (10) days after the Company’s receipt of such written request) pay to Indemnitee, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, such Expenses which are incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any judicial proceeding or
arbitration brought by Indemnitee (i) to enforce his or her rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement or any
other indemnification, hold harmless, exoneration, advancement or contribution agreement or provision of the Charter now or
hereafter in effect; or (ii) for recovery or advances under any insurance policy maintained by any person for the benefit of
Indemnitee, regardless of the outcome and whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, hold
harmless or exoneration right, advancement, contribution or insurance recovery, as the case may be (unless such judicial proceeding
or arbitration was not brought by Indemnitee in good faith).


 






     


     


    

 


(f) Interest shall be paid by
the Company to Indemnitee at the legal rate under New York law for amounts which the Company indemnifies, holds harmless or exonerates,
or is obliged to indemnify, hold harmless or exonerate for the period commencing with the date on which Indemnitee requests indemnification,
to be held harmless, exonerated, contribution, reimbursement or advancement of any Expenses and ending with the date on which such payment
is made to Indemnitee by the Company.


 


15. SECURITY. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, to the extent requested by Indemnitee and approved by the Board, the Company may at any time and from
time to time provide security to Indemnitee for the Company’s obligations hereunder through an irrevocable bank line of credit,
funded trust or other collateral. Any such security, once provided to Indemnitee, may not be revoked or released without the prior written
consent of Indemnitee.


 


16. NON-EXCLUSIVITY; SURVIVAL
OF RIGHTS; INSURANCE; SUBROGATION.


 


(a) The rights of Indemnitee
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 Charter, any agreement, a vote of shareholders or a resolution of directors, or otherwise. No amendment, alteration
or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect
of any Proceeding (regardless of when such Proceeding is first threatened, commenced or completed) arising out of, or related to, any
action taken or omitted by such Indemnitee in his or her Corporate Status prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent
that a change in applicable law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration
rights or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Charter or this Agreement, then this Agreement (without any
further action by the parties hereto) shall automatically be deemed to be amended to require that the Company indemnify Indemnitee to
the fullest extent permitted by law. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and
every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing
at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent
assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.


 


(b) The Companies Law and
the Charter permit the Company to purchase and maintain insurance or furnish similar protection or make other arrangements
including, but not limited to, providing a trust fund, letter of credit, or surety bond (“Indemnification
Arrangements”) on behalf of Indemnitee against any liability asserted against him or her or incurred by or on behalf
of him or her or in such capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or arising out of his or her status as
such, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify him or her against such liability under the provisions of this
Agreement or under the Companies Law, as it may then be in effect. The purchase, establishment, and maintenance of any such
Indemnification Arrangement shall not in any way limit or affect the rights and obligations of the Company or of Indemnitee under
this Agreement except as expressly provided herein, and the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and Indemnitee
shall not in any way limit or affect the rights and obligations of the Company or the other party or parties thereto under any such
Indemnification Arrangement.


 






     


     


    

 


(c) To the extent that the Company
maintains an insurance policy or policies providing liability insurance for directors, officers, trustees, partners, managing members,
fiduciaries, employees, or agents of the Company or of any 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, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent under such policy or policies. If, at the
time the Company receives notice from any source of a Proceeding as to which Indemnitee is a party or a participant (as a witness or otherwise),
the Company has director and officer liability insurance in effect, the Company shall give prompt notice of such Proceeding to the insurers
in accordance with the procedures set forth in the respective policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action
to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of Indemnitee, all amounts payable as a result of such Proceeding in accordance with the terms
of such policies.


 


(d) In the event of any payment
under this Agreement, the Company, to the fullest extent permitted by law, 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 necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.


 


(e) The Company’s obligation
to indemnify, hold harmless, exonerate or advance Expenses hereunder to Indemnitee who is or was serving at the request of the Company
as a director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other Enterprise shall be reduced by any
amount Indemnitee has actually received as indemnification, hold harmless or exoneration payments or advancement of expenses from such
Enterprise. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary except for Section 27, (i) Indemnitee shall have
no obligation to reduce, offset, allocate, pursue or apportion any indemnification, hold harmless, exoneration, advancement, contribution
or insurance coverage among multiple parties possessing such duties to Indemnitee prior to the Company’s satisfaction and performance
of all its obligations under this Agreement, and (ii) the Company shall perform fully its obligations under this Agreement without regard
to whether Indemnitee holds, may pursue or has pursued any indemnification, advancement, hold harmless, exoneration, contribution or insurance
coverage rights against any person or entity other than the Company.


 






     


     


    

 


(f) To the extent
Indemnitee has rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by the Sponsor or its affiliates (other
than the Company) as applicable, (i) the Company shall be the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., that its obligations to
Indemnitee are primary and any obligation of the Sponsor or its respective affiliates, as applicable, to advance expenses or to
provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by Indemnitee are secondary), (ii) the Company shall be
required to advance the full amount of expenses incurred by Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all claims,
liabilities, damages, losses, costs and expenses (including amounts paid in satisfaction of judgments, in compromises and
settlements, as fines and penalties and legal or other costs and reasonable expenses of investigating or defending against any claim
or alleged claim) to the extent legally permitted and as required by the terms of this Agreement, the Company’s organizational
documents or other agreement, without regard to any rights Indemnitee may have against the Sponsor or its affiliates, as applicable,
and (iii) the Company irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Sponsor and its affiliates, as applicable, from any and all
claims against them for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. No advancement or payment by
the Sponsor or its affiliates, as applicable, on behalf of Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which Indemnitee has sought
indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing, and the Sponsor and its affiliates, as applicable, shall have a right
of contribution and be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee
against the Company.


 


17. DURATION OF AGREEMENT.
All agreements and obligations of the Company contained herein shall continue during the period Indemnitee serves as a director or officer
of the Company or as a director, officer, trustee, partner, managing member, fiduciary, employee or agent of any other corporation, partnership,
joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other Enterprise which Indemnitee serves at the request of the Company and shall continue
thereafter so long as Indemnitee shall be subject to any possible Proceeding (including any rights of appeal thereto and any Proceeding
commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 14 of this Agreement) by reason of his or her Corporate Status, whether or not he is
acting in any such capacity at the time any liability or expense is incurred for which indemnification or advancement can be provided
under this Agreement.


 


18. 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, paragraph or sentence 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 shall remain enforceable to the fullest
extent permitted by law; (b) such provision or provisions shall be deemed reformed to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law
and to give the maximum effect to the intent of the parties hereto; and (c) to the fullest extent possible, the provisions of this Agreement
(including, without limitation, each portion of any Section, paragraph or sentence 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 thereby.


 


19. ENFORCEMENT AND BINDING
EFFECT.


 


(a) The Company expressly confirms
and agrees that it has entered into this Agreement and assumed the obligations imposed on it hereby in order to induce Indemnitee to serve
as a director, officer or key employee of the Company, and the Company acknowledges that Indemnitee is relying upon this Agreement in
serving as a director, officer or key employee of the Company.


 


(b) Without limiting any
of the rights of Indemnitee under the Charter as they may be amended from time to time, this Agreement constitutes the entire
agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings, oral, written and implied, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.


 






     


     


    

 


(c) The indemnification, hold
harmless, exoneration and advancement of expenses rights provided by or granted pursuant to this Agreement shall be binding upon and be
enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (including any direct or indirect successor by purchase,
merger, consolidation or otherwise to all or substantially all of the business or assets of the Company), shall continue as to an Indemnitee
who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company or director or officer of any other Enterprise at the Company’s
request, and shall inure to the benefit of Indemnitee and his or her spouse, assigns, heirs, devisees, executors and administrators and
other legal representatives.


 


(d) 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.


 


(e) The Company and Indemnitee
agree herein that a monetary remedy for breach of this Agreement, at some later date, may be inadequate, impracticable and difficult of
proof, and further agree that such breach may cause Indemnitee irreparable harm. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree that Indemnitee
may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, enforce this Agreement by seeking, among other things, injunctive relief and/or specific
performance hereof, without any necessity of showing actual damage or irreparable harm and that by seeking injunctive relief and/or specific
performance, Indemnitee shall not be precluded from seeking or obtaining any other relief to which he may be entitled. The Company and
Indemnitee further agree that Indemnitee shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be entitled to such specific performance and injunctive
relief, including temporary restraining orders, preliminary injunctions and permanent injunctions, without the necessity of posting bonds
or other undertaking in connection therewith. The Company acknowledges that in the absence of a waiver, a bond or undertaking may be required
of Indemnitee by a court of competent jurisdiction, and the Company hereby waives any such requirement of such a bond or undertaking to
the fullest extent permitted by law.


 


20. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER.
No supplement, modification or amendment of this Agreement shall be binding unless executed in writing by 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 of this Agreement nor
shall any waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

22. APPLICABLE LAW AND
CONSENT TO JURISDICTION. This Agreement and the legal relations among the parties shall be governed by, and construed and enforced
in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Except with respect to any arbitration
commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 14(a) of this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company and Indemnitee
hereby irrevocably and unconditionally: (a) agree that any action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall
be brought only in the Cayman Court and not in any state or federal court in the United States of America or any court in any other country;
(b) consent to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Cayman Court for purposes of any action or proceeding arising out of or in
connection with this Agreement; (c) waive any objection to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in the Cayman Court; and
(d) waive, and agree not to plead or to make, any claim that any such action or proceeding brought in the Cayman Court has been brought
in an improper or inconvenient forum, or is subject (in whole or in part) to a jury trial.


 


23. 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. Only one such counterpart signed by the party against whom enforceability
is sought needs to be produced to evidence the existence of this Agreement.


 


24. MISCELLANEOUS.
Use of the masculine pronoun shall be deemed to include usage of the feminine pronoun where appropriate. 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.


 


25. PERIOD OF
LIMITATIONS. No legal action shall be brought and no cause of action shall be asserted by or in the right of the Company against
Indemnitee, Indemnitee’s spouse, heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives after the expiration of two years from
the date of accrual of such cause of action, and any claim or cause of action of the Company shall be extinguished and deemed
released unless asserted by the timely filing of a legal action within such two-year period; provided, however, that if any shorter
period of limitations is otherwise applicable to any such cause of action such shorter period shall govern.


 






     


     


    

 


26. ADDITIONAL ACTS.
If for the validation of any of the provisions in this Agreement any act, resolution, approval or other procedure is required to the fullest
extent permitted by law, the Company undertakes to cause such act, resolution, approval or other procedure to be affected or adopted in
a manner that will enable the Company to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement.


 


27. WAIVER OF CLAIMS TO
TRUST ACCOUNT. Notwithstanding anything contained 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
(the “Trust Account”), 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. Accordingly,
Indemnitee acknowledges and agrees that any indemnification provided hereto will only be able to be satisfied by the Company if (i) the
Company has sufficient funds outside of the Trust Account to satisfy its obligations hereunder or (ii) the Company consummates an initial
business combination.


 


28. MAINTENANCE OF INSURANCE.
The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and maintain in effect during the entire period for which the Company
is obligated to indemnify the Indemnitee under this Agreement, one or more policies of insurance with reputable insurance companies to
provide the officers/directors of the Company with coverage for losses from wrongful acts and omissions and to ensure the Company’s
performance of its indemnification obligations under this Agreement. The 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 or officer under such policy or policies.
In all such insurance policies, the Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide the Indemnitee with the same
rights and benefits as are accorded to the most favorably insured of the Company’s directors and officers.
