WHEREAS, the Company
desires to sell to the Subscriber on a private placement basis (the “Offering”) an aggregate of 640,000 units
(or up to 706,000 units if the over-allotment option in connection with the IPO (as defined below) is exercised in full) (the “Units”)
of the Company, each Unit comprised of one share of Class A common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common
Stock”) and one half of one warrant, each whole warrant exercisable to purchase one share of Common Stock (“Warrant”),

referred to as the “Placement Shares.” The Warrants underlying the Units are hereinafter referred to as the
“Placement Warrants.” The Units, Placement Shares, Placement Warrants and Warrant Shares, collectively, are

of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 during the period commencing on the later of (i) twelve (12) months from the date
of the closing of the Company’s initial public offering of units (the “IPO”) and (ii) 30 days following
the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination (the “Business Combination”), as such term
is defined in the registration statement in connection with the IPO, as amended at the time it becomes effective (the “Registration
Statement”), and expiring on the fifth anniversary of the consummation of the Business Combination; and


 


WHEREAS, the Subscriber
wishes to purchase 640,000 Units (or up to 706,000 Units if the over-allotment option in connection with the IPO is exercised in

The closing of the purchase and sale of 640,000 Units shall take place simultaneously with the closing of the IPO (the “Initial

the same proportion as the amount of the over-allotment option is exercised. On the Over-allotment Closing Date (as defined below),
the Company shall, at its option, deliver to the Subscriber the certificates representing the Securities purchased or effect such
delivery in book-entry form.

The Subscriber shall pay up to $660,000 (if the over-allotment option in connection with the IPO is exercised in full) (the “Over-allotment
Purchase Price”) by wire transfer of immediately available funds or by such other method as may be reasonably acceptable
to the Company, to the Trust Account on the date of the consummation of the closing of the over-allotment option, and concurrently
with the consummation thereof, or on such earlier time and date as may be mutually agreed by the Company and the Subscriber (each

1.7 Termination. This
Agreement and each of the obligations of the undersigned shall be null and void and without effect if a Closing does not occur
prior to March 31, 2020.





 


2. Representations and Warranties
of Subscriber


 


Subscriber represents and warrants to the
Company that:


 


2.1. No Government
Recommendation or Approval. Subscriber understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon or made any recommendation or
endorsement of the Company or the Offering of the Securities.


 


2.2. Accredited Investor.
Subscriber represents that it is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and acknowledges that the sale contemplated hereby
is being made in reliance, among other things, on a private placement exemption to “accredited investors” under the
Securities Act and similar exemptions under state law.


 


2.3. Intent. Subscriber
is purchasing the Securities solely for investment purposes, for Subscriber’s own account (and/or for the account or benefit
of its members or affiliates, as permitted, pursuant to the terms of an agreement (the “Insider Letter”) to
be entered into with respect to the Securities between, among others, Subscriber and the Company, as described in the Registration
Statement), and not with a view to the distribution thereof and Subscriber has no present arrangement to sell the Securities to
or through any person or entity except as may be permitted under the Insider Letter. Subscriber shall not engage in hedging transactions
with regard to the Securities unless in compliance with the Securities Act.


 


2.4. Restrictions on
Transfer. Subscriber acknowledges and understands the Units are being offered in a transaction not involving a public offering
in the United States within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Securities have not been registered under the Securities Act
and, if in the future Subscriber decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Securities, such Securities may be
offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities
Act, (B) pursuant to an exemption from registration under Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, if available, or (C) pursuant
to any other available exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and in each case in accordance with
any applicable securities laws of any state or any other jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Subscriber acknowledges and
understands the Securities are subject to transfer restrictions as described in Section 8 hereof. Subscriber agrees that if any
transfer of its Securities or any interest therein is proposed to be made, as a condition precedent to any such transfer, Subscriber
may be required to deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company with respect to such transfer. Absent
registration or another available exemption from registration, Subscriber agrees it will not resell the Securities (unless otherwise
permitted pursuant to the Insider Letter, as described in the Registration Statement). Subscriber further acknowledges that because
the Company is a shell company, Rule 144 may not be available to Subscriber for the resale of the Securities until the one year
anniversary following consummation of the initial Business Combination of the Company, despite technical compliance with the requirements
of Rule 144 and the release or waiver of any contractual transfer restrictions.

2.5. Sophisticated
Investor.


 


(i) Subscriber is
sophisticated in financial matters and is able to evaluate the risks and benefits of the investment in the Securities.


 


(ii) Subscriber is
aware that an investment in the Securities is highly speculative and subject to substantial risks because, among other things,
the Securities are subject to transfer restrictions and have not been registered under the Securities Act and therefore cannot
be sold unless subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Subscriber
is able to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Securities for an indefinite period of time.


 


2.6. Independent Investigation.
Subscriber, in making the decision to purchase the Units, has relied upon an independent investigation of the Company and has not
relied upon any information or representations made by any third parties or upon any oral or written representations or assurances
from the Company, its officers, directors or employees or any other representatives or agents of the Company, other than as set
forth in this Agreement. Subscriber is familiar with the business, operations and financial condition of the Company and has had
an opportunity to ask questions of, and receive answers from the Company’s officers and directors concerning the Company
and the terms and conditions of the offering of the Units and has had full access to such other information concerning the Company
as Subscriber has requested. Subscriber confirms that all documents that it has requested have been made available and that Subscriber
has been supplied with all of the additional information concerning this investment which Subscriber has requested.


 


2.7 Organization and
Authority. Subscriber is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and it possesses
all requisite power and authority necessary to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.


 


2.8. Authority. This
Agreement has been validly authorized, executed and delivered by Subscriber and is a valid and binding agreement enforceable in
accordance with its terms, subject to the general principles of equity and to bankruptcy or other laws affecting the enforcement
of creditors’ rights generally.


 


2.9. No Conflicts.
The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by Subscriber of the transactions contemplated hereby
do not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) Subscriber's charter documents, (ii) any agreement or instrument
to which Subscriber is a party or (iii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which Subscriber is subject, or any agreement,
order, judgment or decree to which Subscriber is subject.


 


2.10. No Legal Advice
from Company. Subscriber acknowledges it has had the opportunity to review this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement and the other agreements entered into between the parties hereto with Subscriber’s own legal counsel and investment
and tax advisors. Except for any statements or representations of the Company made in this Agreement and the other agreements entered
into between the parties hereto, Subscriber is relying solely on such counsel and advisors and not on any statements or representations
of the Company or any of its representatives or agents for legal, tax or investment advice with respect to this investment, the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the securities laws of any jurisdiction.


 


2.11. Reliance on Representations
and Warranties. Subscriber understands the Units are being offered and sold to Subscriber in reliance on exemptions from the registration
requirements under the Securities Act, and analogous provisions in the laws and regulations of various states, and that the Company
is relying upon the truth and accuracy of the representations, warranties, agreements, acknowledgments and understandings of Subscriber
set forth in this Agreement in order to determine the applicability of such provisions.


 


2.12. No General Solicitation.
Subscriber is not subscribing for the Units as a result of or subsequent to any general solicitation or general advertising, including
but not limited to any advertisement, article, notice or other communication published in any newspaper, magazine, or similar media
or broadcast over television or radio, or presented at any seminar or meeting or in a registration statement with respect to the
IPO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
