INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT TRUST AGREEMENT


 


This Investment Management Trust Agreement
(this “Agreement”) is made effective as of December 12, 2019 by and between CIIG Merger Corp., a Delaware
corporation (the “Company”), and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation
(the “Trustee”).


 


WHEREAS, the Company’s registration
statement on Form S-1, File No. 333-235158 (the “Registration Statement”) and prospectus (the
”Prospectus”) for the initial public offering of the Company’s units (the “Units”),
each of which consists of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common
Stock”), and one-half of one redeemable warrant, each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one
share of Common Stock (such initial public offering hereinafter referred to as the “Offering”), has been
declared effective as of the date hereof by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; and


 


WHEREAS, the Company has entered into an
Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with UBS Securities LLC and Barclays Capital Inc.
as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the several underwriters (the “Underwriters”)
named therein; and


 


WHEREAS, as described in the Prospectus,
$225,000,000 of the gross proceeds of the Offering and sale of the Private Placement Warrants (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement)
(or $258,750,000 if the Underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full) will be delivered to the Trustee to be
deposited and held in a segregated trust account located at all times in the United States (the “Trust Account”)
for the benefit of the Company and the holders of the Common Stock included in the Units issued in the Offering as hereinafter
provided (the amount to be delivered to the Trustee (and any interest subsequently earned thereon) is referred to herein as the
“Property,” the stockholders for whose benefit the Trustee shall hold the Property will be referred to
as the “Public Stockholders,” and the Public Stockholders and the Company will be referred to together
as the “Beneficiaries”); and


 


WHEREAS, pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement,
a portion of the Property equal to $7,875,000, or $9,056,250 if the Underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full,
is attributable to deferred underwriting discounts and commissions that will be payable by the Company to the Underwriters upon
and concurrently with the consummation of the Business Combination (as defined below) (the “Deferred Discount”);
and


 


WHEREAS, the Company and the Trustee desire
to enter into this Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions pursuant to which the Trustee shall hold the Property.


 


NOW THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED:


 


1. Agreements and Covenants of Trustee.
The Trustee hereby agrees and covenants to:


 


(a) Hold the Property in trust for the
Beneficiaries in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in the Trust Account established by the Trustee in the United States
at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., and at a brokerage institution selected by the Trustee that is reasonably satisfactory to the
Company;


 


(b) Manage, supervise and administer
the Trust Account subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein;


 


(c) In a timely manner, upon the written
instruction of the Company, invest and reinvest the Property in United States government securities within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16)
of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, having a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the
conditions of paragraphs (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3) and (d)(4) of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, as amended (or any successor rule), which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined
by the Company; the Trustee may not invest in any other securities or assets, it being understood that the Trust Account will earn
no interest while account funds are uninvested awaiting the Company’s instructions hereunder and the Trustee may earn bank
credits or other consideration;


 


(d) Collect and receive, when due, all
interest or other income arising from the Property, which shall become part of the “Property,” as such
term is used herein;


 






     


     


    

 


(e) Promptly notify the Company and the
Representatives of all communications received by the Trustee with respect to any Property requiring action by the Company;


 


(f) Supply any necessary information
or documents as may be requested by the Company (or its authorized agents) in connection with the Company’s preparation of
the tax returns relating to assets held in the Trust Account;


 


(g) Participate in any plan or proceeding
for protecting or enforcing any right or interest arising from the Property if, as and when instructed by the Company to do so;


 


(h) Render to the Company monthly written
statements of the activities of, and amounts in, the Trust Account reflecting all receipts and disbursements of the Trust Account;


 


(i) Commence liquidation of the Trust
Account only after and promptly after (x) receipt of, and only in accordance with, the terms of a letter from the Company
(“Termination Letter”) in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as either Exhibit A
or Exhibit B, as applicable, signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer,
Secretary or Chairman of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) or other authorized officer
of the Company, and complete the liquidation of the Trust Account and distribute the Property in the Trust Account, including interest
not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, only as directed in the Termination Letter and the other documents referred
to therein, or (y) upon the date which is the later of (i) 24 months after the closing of the Offering and (ii) such
later date as may be approved by the Company’s stockholders in accordance with the Company’s amended and restated certificate
of incorporation, if a Termination Letter has not been received by the Trustee prior to such date, in which case the Trust Account
shall be liquidated in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Termination Letter attached as Exhibit B and
the Property in the Trust Account, including interest not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000
of interest that may be released to the Company to pay dissolution expenses) shall be distributed to the Public Stockholders of
record as of such date; provided, however, that in the event the Trustee receives a Termination Letter in a form
substantially similar to Exhibit B hereto, or if the Trustee begins to liquidate the Property because it has received
no such Termination Letter by the date specified in clause (y) of this Section 1(i), the Trustee shall keep the Trust
Account open until twelve (12) months following the date the Property has been distributed to the Public Stockholders. It is acknowledged
and agreed that there should be no reduction in the principal amount initially deposited in the Trust Account;


 


(j) Upon written request from the Company,
which may be given from time to time in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit C, withdraw
from the Trust Account and distribute to the Company the amount of interest earned on the Property requested by the Company to
cover any tax obligation owed by the Company as a result of assets of the Company or interest or other income earned on the Property,
which amount shall be delivered directly to the Company by electronic funds transfer or other method of prompt payment, and the
Company shall forward such payment to the relevant taxing authority; provided, however, that to the extent there
is not sufficient cash in the Trust Account to pay such tax obligation, the Trustee shall liquidate such assets held in the Trust
Account as shall be designated by the Company in writing to make such distribution so long as there is no reduction in the principal
amount initially deposited in the Trust Account; provided, further, that if the tax to be paid is a franchise tax,
the written request by the Company to make such distribution shall be accompanied by a copy of the franchise tax bill from the
State of Delaware for the Company and a written statement from the principal financial officer of the Company setting forth the
actual amount payable. The written request of the Company referenced above shall constitute presumptive evidence that the Company
is entitled to said funds, and the Trustee shall have no responsibility to look beyond said request (it being acknowledged and
agreed that any such amount in excess of interest income earned on the Property shall not be payable from the Trust Account);


 


(k) Upon written request from the Company,
which may be given from time to time in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as Exhibit D, the Trustee
shall distribute to the Public Stockholders of record as of such date the amount requested by the Company to be used to redeem
shares of Common Stock from Public Stockholders properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment
to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (a) to modify the substance or timing of the ability
of Public Stockholders to seek redemption in connection with an initial Business Combination or the Company’s obligation
to redeem 100% of its public shares of Common Stock if the Company has not consummated an initial Business Combination within such
time as is described in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or (b) with respect to any other
provisions relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity. The written request of the Company
referenced above shall constitute presumptive evidence that the Company is entitled to distribute said funds, and the Trustee shall
have no responsibility to look beyond said request; and


 






    2


     


    

 


(l) Not make any withdrawals or distributions
from the Trust Account other than pursuant to Section 1(i), (j) or (k) above.


 


2. Agreements and Covenants of the Company.
The Company hereby agrees and covenants to:


 


(a) Give all instructions to the Trustee
hereunder in writing, signed by the Company’s Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer or
Secretary. In addition, except with respect to its duties under Sections 1(i), 1(j) and 1(k) hereof,
the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, any verbal or telephonic advice or instruction
which it, in good faith and with reasonable care, believes to be given by any one of the persons authorized above to give written
instructions, provided that the Company shall promptly confirm such instructions in writing;


 


(b) Subject to Section 4
hereof, hold the Trustee harmless and indemnify the Trustee from and against any and all expenses, including reasonable counsel
fees and disbursements, or losses suffered by the Trustee in connection with any action taken by it hereunder and in connection
with any action, suit or other proceeding brought against the Trustee involving any claim, or in connection with any claim or demand,
which in any way arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the services of the Trustee hereunder, or the Property or any interest
earned on the Property, except for expenses and losses resulting from the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct.
Promptly after the receipt by the Trustee of notice of demand or claim or the commencement of any action, suit or proceeding, pursuant
to which the Trustee intends to seek indemnification under this Section 2(b), it shall notify the Company in writing
of such claim (hereinafter referred to as the “Indemnified Claim”). The Trustee shall have the right
to conduct and manage the defense against such Indemnified Claim; provided that the Trustee shall obtain the consent of
the Company with respect to the selection of counsel, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Trustee
may not agree to settle any Indemnified Claim without the prior written consent of the Company, which such consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Company may participate in such action with its own counsel;


 


(c) Pay the Trustee the fees set forth
on Schedule A hereto, including an initial acceptance fee, annual administration fee, and transaction processing fee which
fees shall be subject to modification by the parties from time to time. It is expressly understood that the Property shall not
be used to pay such fees unless and until the consummation of the Business Combination (as defined below). The Company shall pay
the Trustee the initial acceptance fee and the first annual administration fee at the consummation of the Offering. The Trustee
shall refund to the Company the annual administration fee (on a pro rata basis) with respect to any period after the liquidation
of the Trust Account. The Company shall not be responsible for any other fees or charges of the Trustee except as set forth in
this Section 2(c), Schedule A and as may be provided in Section 2(b) hereof;


 


(d) In connection with any vote of the
Company’s stockholders regarding a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar
business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”), provide
to the Trustee an affidavit or certificate of the inspector of elections for the stockholder meeting verifying the vote of such
stockholders regarding such Business Combination;


 


(e) Provide the Representatives with
a copy of any Termination Letter(s) and/or any other correspondence that is sent to the Trustee with respect to any proposed
withdrawal from the Trust Account promptly after it issues the same; 


 


(f) Unless otherwise agreed between the
Company and the Representatives, ensure that any Instruction Letter (as defined in Exhibit A) delivered in connection with
a Termination Letter in the form of Exhibit A expressly provides that the Deferred Discount is paid directly to the account
or accounts directed by the Representatives on behalf of the Underwriters prior to any transfer of the funds held in the Trust
Account to the Company or any other person;


 






    3


     


    

 


(g) Instruct the Trustee to make only those distributions
that are permitted under this Agreement, and refrain from instructing the Trustee to make any distributions that are not permitted
under this Agreement; and


 


(h) Within four (4) business days
after the Underwriters exercise the over-allotment option (or any unexercised portion thereof) or such over-allotment expires,
provide the Trustee with a notice in writing of the total amount of the Deferred Discount, which shall in no event be less than
$7,875,000.


 


3. Limitations of Liability. The
Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability to:


 


(a) Imply obligations, perform duties,
inquire or otherwise be subject to the provisions of any agreement or document other than this Agreement and that which is expressly
set forth herein;


 


(b) Take any action with respect to the
Property, other than as directed in Section 1 hereof, and the Trustee shall have no liability to any third party except
for liability arising out of the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct;


 


(c) Institute any proceeding for the
collection of any principal and income arising from, or institute, appear in or defend any proceeding of any kind with respect
to, any of the Property unless and until it shall have received instructions from the Company given as provided herein to do so
and the Company shall have advanced or guaranteed to it funds sufficient to pay any expenses incident thereto;


 


(d) Refund any depreciation in principal
of any Property;


 


(e) Assume that the authority of any
person designated by the Company to give instructions hereunder shall not be continuing unless provided otherwise in such designation,
or unless the Company shall have delivered a written revocation of such authority to the Trustee;


 


(f) The other parties hereto or to anyone
else for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in good faith and in the Trustee’s
reasonable best judgment, except for the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct. The Trustee may rely conclusively
and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen
by the Trustee, which counsel may be the Company’s counsel), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not
only as to its due execution and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of
any information therein contained) which the Trustee believes, in good faith and with reasonable care, to be genuine and to be
signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The Trustee shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification,
termination or rescission of this Agreement or any of the terms hereof, unless evidenced by a written instrument delivered to the
Trustee, signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Trustee are affected, unless it shall give its
prior written consent thereto;


 


(g) Verify the accuracy of the information
contained in the Registration Statement;


 


(h) Provide any assurance that any Business
Combination entered into by the Company or any other action taken by the Company is as contemplated by the Registration Statement;


 


(i) File information returns with respect
to the Trust Account with any local, state or federal taxing authority or provide periodic written statements to the Company documenting
the taxes payable by the Company, if any, relating to any interest income earned on the Property;


 


(j) Prepare, execute and file tax reports,
income or other tax returns and pay any taxes with respect to any income generated by, and activities relating to, the Trust Account,
regardless of whether such tax is payable by the Trust Account or the Company, including, but not limited to, franchise and income
tax obligations, except pursuant to Section 1(j) hereof; or


 






    4


     


    

 


(k) Verify calculations, qualify or otherwise
approve the Company’s written requests for distributions pursuant to Sections 1(i), 1(j) and 1(k) hereof.


 


4. Trust Account Waiver. The Trustee
has no right of set-off or any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) 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,
under Section 2(b) or Section 2(c) hereof, the Trustee shall pursue such Claim solely against
the Company and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the Property or any monies in the Trust Account.


 


5. Termination. 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 to locate a successor
trustee, pending which the Trustee shall continue to act in accordance with this Agreement. At such time that the Company notifies
the Trustee that a successor trustee has been appointed 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 and its obligations 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 2(b).


 


6. Miscellaneous.


 


(a) The Company and the Trustee each
acknowledge that the Trustee will follow the security procedures set forth below with respect to funds transferred from the Trust
Account. The Company and the Trustee will each restrict access to confidential information relating to such security procedures
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 confidential information, or of any change in its authorized personnel. In executing funds transfers,
the Trustee shall 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 error in the information or transmission of the funds.


 


(b) This Agreement shall be governed
by and construed and enforced in accordance with 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. 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.


 


(c) This Agreement contains the entire
agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement or any provision hereof
may only be changed, amended or modified (other than to correct a typographical error) by a writing signed by each of the parties
hereto.


 


(d) This Agreement or any provision hereof
may only be changed, amended or modified pursuant to Section 6(c) hereof with the Consent of the Stockholders,
it being the specific intention of the parties hereto that each of the Company’s stockholders is, and shall be, a third party
beneficiary of this Section 6(d) with the same right and power to enforce this Section 6(d) as
the other parties hereto. For purposes of this Section 6(d), the “Consent of the Stockholders”
means receipt by the Trustee of a certificate from the inspector of elections of the stockholder meeting certifying that either
(i) the Company’s stockholders of record as of a record date established in accordance with Section 213(a) of
the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended (“DGCL”) (or any successor rule), who hold sixty-five
percent (65%) or more of all then outstanding shares of the Common Stock and Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share,
of the Company voting together as a single class, have voted in favor of such change, amendment or modification, or (ii) the
Company’s stockholders of record as of the record date who hold sixty-five percent (65%) or more of all then outstanding
shares of the Common Stock and Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company voting together as a single
class, have delivered to such entity a signed writing approving such change, amendment or modification. No such amendment will
affect any Public Stockholder who has otherwise indicated his election to redeem his share of Common Stock in connection with a
stockholder vote sought to amend this Agreement to modify the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100%
of the Common Stock if the Company does not complete its initial Business Combination within the time frame specified in the Company’s
amended and restated certificate of incorporation. Except for any liability arising out of the Trustee’s gross negligence,
fraud or willful misconduct, the Trustee may rely conclusively on the certification from the inspector or elections referenced
above and shall be relieved of all liability to any party for executing the proposed amendment in reliance thereon.


 






    5


     


    

 


(e) The parties hereto consent to the
jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located in the City of New York, State of New York, 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.


 


(f) Any
notice, consent or request to be given in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement shall be in writing

Re: Trust Account No. Termination
Letter


 


Gentlemen:


 


Pursuant to Section 1(i) of the
Investment Management Trust Agreement between CIIG Merger Corp. (the “Company”) and Continental Stock
Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trustee”), dated as of           ,
2019 (the “Trust Agreement”), this is to advise you that the Company has entered into an agreement with [insert
name] (the “Target Business”) to consummate a business combination with Target Business (the “Business
Combination”) on or about [insert date]. The Company shall notify you at least seventy-two (72) hours in advance
of the actual date of the consummation of the Business Combination (or such shorter time period as you may agree) (the “Consummation
Date”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Trust Agreement.


 


In accordance with the terms of the Trust
Agreement, we hereby authorize you to commence to liquidate all of the assets of the Trust Account and to transfer the proceeds
into a segregated account held by you on behalf of the Beneficiaries to the effect that, on the Consummation Date, all of the funds
held in the Trust Account will be immediately available for transfer to the account or accounts that the Company shall direct on
the Consummation Date (including as directed to it by the Representatives on behalf of the Underwriters (with respect to the Deferred
Discount)). It is acknowledged and agreed that while the funds are on deposit in the trust operating account at J.P. Morgan Chase
Bank, N.A., awaiting distribution, the Company will not earn any interest or dividends.


 


On the Consummation Date (i) counsel
for the Company shall deliver to you written notification that the Business Combination has been consummated, or will be consummated
concurrently with your transfer of funds to the accounts as directed by the Company (the “Notification”)
and (ii) the Company shall deliver to you (a) [an affidavit] [a certificate] of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company,
which verifies that the Business Combination has been approved by a vote of the Company’s stockholders, if a vote is held
and (b) a joint written instruction signed by the Company and the Representatives with respect to the transfer of the funds
held in the Trust Account, including payment of the Deferred Discount to the Representatives from the Trust Account (the “Instruction
Letter”). You are hereby directed and authorized to transfer the funds held in the Trust Account immediately upon
your receipt of the Notification and the Instruction Letter, in accordance with the terms of the Instruction Letter. In the event
that certain deposits held in the Trust Account may not be liquidated by the Consummation Date without penalty, you will notify
the Company in writing of the same and the Company shall direct you as to whether such funds should remain in the Trust Account
and be distributed after the Consummation Date to the Company. Upon the distribution of all the funds, net of any payments necessary
for reasonable unreimbursed expenses related to liquidating the Trust Account, your obligations under the Trust Agreement shall
be terminated.


 


In the event that the Business Combination
is not consummated on the Consummation Date described in the notice thereof and we have not notified you on or before the original
Consummation Date of a new Consummation Date, then upon receipt by the Trustee of written instructions from the Company, the funds
held in the Trust Account shall be reinvested as provided in Section 1(c) of the Trust Agreement on the business day
immediately following the Consummation Date as set forth in such written instruction as soon thereafter as possible.
