Exhibit 10.2


 


EXECUTION VERSION


 


BACKSTOP AGREEMENT


 


This BACKSTOP AGREEMENT (this
 “Agreement”) is made as of this 10th day of June, 2021 by and between (i) Venus Acquisition Corporation (“SPAC”
or “Issuer”), a Cayman Islands exempted company, and (ii) EVER ABUNDANT INVESTMENTS LIMITED, a company incorporated
in the British Virgin Islands (“Buyer”).


 


WHEREAS, Issuer was organized
for the purpose of acquiring, through a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination, an operating
business;


 


WHEREAS, this Agreement
is being entered into concurrently and in connection with that certain business combination agreement (the “Acquisition Agreement”)
, pursuant to which Issuer will consummate an acquisition of Viyi Algorithm Inc., a Cayman islands company (“Target”)
in a reverse merger in accordance with the terms and conditions thereof; capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the
same meaning ascribed to such terms in the Acquisition Agreement; and


 


WHEREAS, in connection
with the transactions contemplated under the Acquisition Agreement (“Business Combination”) and subject to the terms
and conditions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer has agreed to backstop SPAC Share Redemptions (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement),
together with any Purchase Amount (as defined below), for an amount up to US$10 million (“Backstop Amount”), and to
the extent such backstop is required, desires to subscribe for and purchase that number of ordinary shares1,
par value US$0.001 per share (the “Issuer Shares”) to be determined in accordance with the terms hereof, and in such
event, the Issuer desires to issue and sell to Buyer such number of Issuer Shares in consideration of the Subscription Amount (as defined
below), all on the terms and conditions set forth herein.


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration
of the mutual covenants hereinafter set forth and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged,
the parties hereby agree as follows:


 


ARTICLE I


PURCHASE
AND CLOSING


 


Section 1.01            Purchase
from Third Parties. The Buyer agrees that after SPAC files a proxy statement and/or registration statement relating to the
transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement (collectively, the “Registration Statement”), the Buyer
will have the right but not the obligation to acquire shares of SPAC in open market or private transactions at prices of no greater
than the redemption price per Share disclosed in the most recently filed Registration Statement plus $0.05 (the “Price Per
Share”). In order to effectuate the foregoing, to the extent legally permitted to do so, the Buyer shall enter bids at the
Price Per Share (or at a lower price not less than $0.01 below the posted market offer price if and only if the posted market offer
price is below the Price Per Share) on the business day after SPAC files the Registration Statement until the business day prior to
the shareholder’s meeting relating to the Business Combination. The aggregate purchase amount of the Buyer hereof shall be
referred to as “Purchase Amount.” The Buyer hereby agrees and undertakes that it will not exercise any right of
redemption with respect to any shares of SPAC it so acquired under Section 1.01 (Purchase from Third Parties) hereof.


 






    1


     


    

 


Section 1.02           
Subscription from Issuer. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, in the event that any holder of ordinary shares of
SPAC, contemporaneously with or prior to the SPAC Shareholders’ Approval (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement), elects to have
such holder’s ordinary shares redeemed by SPAC, Buyer hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase, and the Issuer hereby
agrees to issue and sell to Buyer at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement (the “Acquisition
Closing”), upon the payment of the Subscription Amount (as defined below), the number of Issuer Shares (the “Subscribed
Shares”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the Subscription Amount by the Price Per Share (the “Subscription”).
The “Subscription Amount” shall mean an amount equal to the lesser of (i) any excess of Backstop Amount over the Purchase
Amount, and (ii) the aggregate amount payable by SPAC in respect of any SPAC Share Redemptions (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement).


 


Section 1.03           
Subscription Closing. The closing of the Subscription contemplated hereby (the “Subscription Closing”,
together with the Acquisition Closing, the “Closings” and “Closing” shall mean either of them) shall
occur on the same day, and substantially concurrent with, consummation of the Acquisition Closing (the date of the Closings, “Closing
Date”) subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Not less than ten (10) business days prior to the anticipated Closing
Date, the Issuer shall provide written notice to Buyer of such anticipated Closing Date (the “Closing Notice”) of such
anticipated Closing Date. Not less than five (5) business days prior to the anticipated Closing Date (as specified in the Closing Notice),
SPAC shall provide written notice to Buyer of the aggregate amount payable in respect of the SPAC Share Redemptions (as defined in the
Acquisition Agreement), together with a certificate duly executed by an officer or director of SPAC certifying such aggregate amount (the
 “Redemption Notice”). Buyer shall deliver to the Issuer on or before two (2) business days prior to the anticipated
Closing Date the Subscription for the Subscribed Shares by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the escrow
account specified by the Issuer in the Closing Notice, to be held by the escrow agent until the Acquisition Closing. As soon as reasonably
practicable following the Closing Date, but not later than [one (1)] business day after the Closing Date, the Issuer shall deliver to
Buyer (1) the Subscribed Shares in book entry form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions (other than those arising under
applicable securities laws), in the name of Buyer (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) or to a custodian designated
by Buyer, as applicable; and (2) a copy of the records of the Issuer’s transfer agent (the “Transfer Agent”)
or other evidence showing Buyer as the owner of the Subscribed Shares on and as of the Closing Date. In the event the Closing Date does
not occur within two (2) business days after the anticipated Closing Date identified in the Closing Notice, the Issuer shall cause the
escrow agent to promptly (but not later than five (5) business days thereafter) return the Subscription Amount to Buyer by wire transfer
of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by Buyer, and any book entries shall be deemed cancelled; provided
that unless this Backstop Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Section 5.01 (Termination), such return of funds shall not
terminate this Backstop Agreement or relieve Buyer of its obligation to purchase the Subscribed Shares at the Subscription Closing upon
delivery of a new Closing Notice in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

warrants to Issuer on the date hereof and as of the Subscription Closing that:


 


Section 3.01

Securities Law Compliance. The Buyer has been advised that the offer and sale of the Shares by Venus has not been registered
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any other securities laws and, therefore, none
of the Shares purchased at the Closing can be resold unless they are registered under the Securities Act and applicable securities laws
or unless an exemption from such registration requirements is available. The Buyer understands that the Subscribed Shares will be considered
to be “restricted securities” under the Securities Act, and that, therefore, the Buyer will not be eligible to use Rule 144

has been filed with the SEC. The Buyer is acquiring the Shares for Buyer’s own account for investment, not as a nominee or agent,
and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, the distribution thereof. The Buyer represents that it is an “accredited
investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities Act, and that the Buyer is not subject
to the “Bad Actor” disqualification, as such terms is defined in Rule 506 of Regulation D, promulgated under the Securities
Act.

or any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents relating to the transactions contemplated by this Backstop Agreement,

ARTICLE V


MISCELLANEOUS


 


Section 5.01           
Termination. This Agreement shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the mutual written agreement of each parties hereto,
(ii) the date the Acquisition Agreement is terminated pursuant to the terms and conditions thereof, and (iii) September 30, 2021 if the
Acquisition Closing has not occurred on or prior to such date; provided that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for
any willful and material breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in
equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from such breach..


 


Section 5.02           
Counterparts; Facsimile. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall

may be executed via facsimile transmission, and any such executed facsimile copy shall be treated as an original.


 


Section 5.03           
Governing Law. This Agreement shall for all purposes be deemed to be made under and shall be construed in accordance with
the laws of New York. Each of the parties hereby agrees that any action, proceeding or claim against it arising out of or relating in
any way to this Agreement shall, to the fullest extent applicable, be brought and enforced first in the Southern District of New York,
then to such other court in the State of New York as appropriate and irrevocably submits to such jurisdiction, which jurisdiction shall
be exclusive. Each of the parties hereby waives any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and that such courts represent an inconvenient
forum.


 


Section 5.04           
Remedies Cumulative. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that, in the event of any breach of any covenant
or agreement contained in this Agreement by the other party, money damages may be inadequate with respect to any such breach and the non-breaching
party may have no adequate remedy at law. It is accordingly agreed that each of the parties hereto shall be entitled, in addition to any
other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity, to seek injunctive relief and/or to compel specific performance to prevent
breaches by the other party hereto of any covenant or agreement of such other party contained in this Agreement. Accordingly, each of
the parties hereto hereby agrees to waive (i) any requirement for the posting of any bond in connection with such request for an injunction,

costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' and experts' fees that such prevailing party may incur in connection with the enforcement
of this Agreement.


 


Section 5.05           
Severability. If any term, provision or covenant of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other
authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions and covenants of this Agreement shall remain in
full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.


 


Section 5.06           
Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective legal representatives, successors and permitted assigns.


 


Section 5.07           
Headings. The descriptive headings of the Sections hereof are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part
of this Agreement.


 


Section 5.08            Entire
Agreement; Changes in Writing. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersedes and
cancels any prior agreements, representations and warranties, whether oral or written, among the parties hereto relating to the
transaction contemplated hereby. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be changed or amended orally, but only by an
agreement in writing signed by the other party hereto.


 






    7


     


    

 


Section 5.09           
Further Assurances.If at any time any of the parties hereto shall consider or be advised that any further documents
or actions are necessary or desirable to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise the rights, title or interest in or to the Subscribed
Shares or under or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver such further documents or take such
actions and provide all assurances and to take and do all such other actions and things as may be necessary or desirable to vest, perfect
or confirm any and all right, title and interest in or to the Subscribed Shares or under or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement.


 


Section 5.10           
Waiver of Claims Against Trust. Reference is made to the final prospectus of SPAC, filed with the Securities Exchange Commission
on February 3, 2021 (the “Prospectus”). Buyer warrants and represents that it has read the Prospectus and understands
that SPAC has established a trust account containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (“IPO”) and from certain
private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (collectively, with interest accrued from time to time thereon, the “Trust
Fund”) for the benefit of SPAC’s public shareholders (“Public Shareholders”) and certain parties (including
the underwriters of the IPO) and that, except for a portion of the interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Fund, SPAC may disburse
monies from the Trust Fund only under limited circumstances as set forth in the Prospectus.


 


For and in consideration of
Issuer’s execution of this Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby
acknowledged, Buyer hereby agrees that it does not now and shall not at any time hereafter have any right, title, interest or claim of
any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Fund or distributions therefrom, or make any claim against, the Trust Fund, regardless of whether
such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, any proposed or actual business relationship between SPAC
and Buyer, this Agreement or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other
theory of legal liability (any and all such claims are collectively referred to hereafter as the “Claims”). Buyer hereby
irrevocably waives any Claims it may have against the Trust Fund (including any distributions therefrom) now or in the future as a result
of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with SPAC and will not seek recourse against the Trust Fund (including
any distributions therefrom) for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, for an alleged breach of this Agreement). Buyer
agrees and acknowledges that such irrevocable waiver is material to this Agreement and specifically relied upon by SPAC to induce it to
enter in this Agreement, and Buyer further intends and understands such waiver to be valid, binding and enforceable under applicable law.
This Section 5.10 (Waiver of Claims against Trust) shall survive the termination of this Agreement for any reason.
