Re:     Initial Public Offering


 


Gentlemen:


 


The undersigned shareholder
[and [Insert position]] of Chardan Metropol Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”), in consideration of Chardan Capital
Markets, LLC (“Chardan”) entering into an agreement to underwrite an initial public offering of the securities of the
Company (“IPO”) and embarking on the IPO process, hereby agrees as follows (certain capitalized terms used herein are
defined in paragraph 12 hereof):


1.            If
the Company initiates an issuer tender offer in connection with the consummation of an Acquisition Transaction, the undersigned
will not redeem any Shares owned by the undersigned in such tender offer. If the Company solicits approval of its shareholders
to approve the Acquisition Transaction, the undersigned will vote all Insider Shares owned by the undersigned in accordance with
the majority of the votes cast by the holders of the IPO Shares, and will vote any IPO Shares acquired in the IPO or the aftermarket
owned by the undersigned in favor of such Acquisition Transaction. If the Company solicits approval of its shareholders to
amend Clause 6 of the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association prior to consummation of an Acquisition
Transaction, the undersigned will vote all Insider Shares owned by the undersigned in accordance with the majority of the votes
cast by the holders of the IPO Shares. The undersigned will not exercise any appraisal rights (if such appraisal rights are available)
to which the undersigned may be entitled under the British Virgin Islands Law (“BVI Law”) in connection with the vote
to approve any Acquisition Transaction, as the case may be, with respect to any Shares acquired in the aftermarket owned by the
undersigned.


 


2.            In
the event that the Company fails to consummate an Acquisition Transaction within 18 months (or 24 months pursuant to the automatic
period extension) from the consummation of the IPO (such date being referred to herein as the “Termination Date”),
the undersigned shall take all such action reasonably within its power as is necessary to dissolve the Company and liquidate the
Trust Fund to holders of IPO Shares as soon as reasonably practicable, subject to any applicable requirements of BVI Law.  [The
undersigned in its capacity as a member of the board of directors of the Company hereby agrees not to recommend to shareholders
of the company to vote in favor of an amendment to Clause 6 of the Company’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles
of Incorporation, if such amendment would take effect prior to the consummation of an Acquisition Transaction.] 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, Insider Warrants, and his Placement
Warrants (“Claim”). The undersigned hereby agrees that he will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any
Claim he may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with the Company and
will not seek recourse against the Trust Fund for any reason whatsoever, other than liquidation distributions for any IPO Shares
acquired by him in the IPO or the aftermarket.


 



    	 



    	 



    

 


3.            The
undersigned agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any and all loss, liability, claims, damage and expense whatsoever
(including, but not limited to, any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending
against any litigation, whether pending or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) which the Company may become subject as a result
of any claim by any vendor or other person who is owed money by the Company for services rendered or products sold or contracted
for, or by any Target Business (“Third-Party Claimant”), but only to the extent necessary to ensure that such loss,
liability, claim, damage or expense does not reduce the amount in the Trust Fund; provided, however, that the undersigned shall
not be required to so indemnify the Company if the Third-Party Claimant has waived its right to proceed against the Trust Fund.  The
undersigned further agrees to advance such funds as are necessary to complete the plan of dissolution and distribution, and not
seek repayment thereof, if and to the extent the Company’s assets outside of the Trust Fund are insufficient.


 


4.            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 an Acquisition Transaction, the liquidation of the Company
or until such time as the undersigned ceases to be a director of the Company, subject to any pre-existing fiduciary and contractual
obligations the undersigned might have.


 


5.            To
further minimize potential conflicts of interest, the undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Company will not consummate
any Acquisition Transaction with an entity which is affiliated with any of its founding shareholders unless the Company obtains
an opinion from an independent investment banking firm that the Acquisition Transaction is fair to the Company’s unaffiliated
shareholders from a financial point of view.


 


6.            Neither
the undersigned, any member of the family of the undersigned, nor any Affiliate of the undersigned will be entitled to receive
and will not accept any compensation for services rendered to the Company prior to the consummation of the Acquisition Transaction.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the undersigned shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred
in connection with identifying, investigating and consummating an Acquisition Transaction and the undersigned acknowledges that
the Company has an obligation to repay a $[_______] non-interest bearing loan made to the Company by Chardan Capital Markets, LLC,
an affiliate of the Company’s officers and directors.


 


7.            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 an Acquisition Transaction.


 


8.            The
undersigned will escrow, in accordance with the terms of a Securities Escrow Agreement which the Company will enter into with the
undersigned and [Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company], as escrow agent: (i) all of his Insider Shares and Insider Warrants
until the date which is six (6) months after the consummation of an initial Acquisition Transaction, and (ii) all of his Placement
Warrants until the date on which the Company consummates its initial Acquisition Transaction or post-acquisition tender offer,
as the case may be.
