Re:     Initial
Public Offering


 


Gentlemen:


 


This letter is being
delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) entered
into by and between Twelve Seas Investment Company, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the “Company”),
and EarlyBirdCapital, Inc., as representative (the “Representative”) of the several Underwriters named
in Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the
“IPO”) of the Company’s units (the “Units”), each comprised of one ordinary
share of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), one redeemable warrant (the
“Warrants”), each redeemable Warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one Ordinary Share at a
price of $11.50 per share, and one right to receive one-tenth of an Ordinary Share (the “Rights”). Certain
capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 14 hereof.


 


In order to induce the
Company and the Underwriters to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the IPO, and in recognition of the benefit
that such IPO will confer upon the undersigned as a shareholder of the Company, and for other good and valuable consideration,
the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned hereby agrees with the Company as follows:


 


1. If
the Company solicits approval of its shareholders of a Business Combination, the undersigned will vote all Ordinary shares beneficially
owned by him whether acquired before, in or after the IPO, in favor of such Business Combination.


 


2. (a)
In the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Charter, the undersigned
shall take all reasonable steps to (i) cause the Trust Fund to be liquidated and distributed to the holders of IPO Shares and (ii)
cause the Company to liquidate as soon as reasonably practicable.


 


(b)  The
undersigned hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any distribution of the Trust Fund and
any remaining net assets of the Company as a result of such liquidation with respect to his Insider Shares (“Claim”)
and hereby waives any Claim the undersigned may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any contracts or agreements
with the Company and will not seek recourse against the Trust Fund for any reason whatsoever.


 


(c)  [Intentionally
omitted].


 


(d)  [Intentionally
omitted]. 


  


3.  The
undersigned will escrow all of his Insider Shares pursuant to the terms of a Stock Escrow Agreement which the Company will enter
into with the undersigned and an escrow agent acceptable to the Company.


 






    	 	 	 



     


    

 


4.  [Intentionally
omitted].


  


5. In
order to minimize potential conflicts of interest which may arise from multiple affiliations, the undersigned agrees to present
to the Company for its consideration, prior to presentation to any other person or entity, any suitable opportunity to acquire
a target business, until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination or the liquidation of the Company,
subject to any pre-existing fiduciary and contractual obligations the undersigned might have.


 


6. The
undersigned acknowledges and agrees that prior to entering into a Business Combination with a target business that is affiliated
with any Insiders of the Company or their affiliates, such transaction must be approved by a majority of the Company’s disinterested
independent directors and the Company must obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent
entity that commonly renders valuation opinions that such Business Combination is fair to the Company’s unaffiliated shareholders
from a financial point of view.


 


7. Neither
the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive
and no such person will accept any compensation or other cash payment prior to, or for services rendered in connection with, the
consummation of the Business Combination; provided that the Company shall be allowed to make the payments set forth
in the Registration Statement under the caption “Prospectus Summary – The Offering – Limited Payments to Insiders.”


 


8. Neither
the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive
or accept a finder’s fee or any other compensation in the event the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned
or any affiliate of the undersigned originates a Business Combination.

undersigned agrees to be a director of the Company until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of a Business Combination
or the liquidation of the Company. The undersigned’s biographical information previously furnished to the Company and the
