WHEREAS, the Parties have entered into a Redemption Subscription Agreement, dated as of May 10, 2021 (as amended, amended and restated,
supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with its provisions, the “Agreement”); 
 WHEREAS, in
accordance with Section 7.10(a) of the Merger Agreement and Section 5 of the Agreement, Better HoldCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) has approved this Termination Agreement; and

subject to the conditions set forth herein. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises set forth above and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows: 
 1. Definitions.
Capitalized terms used and not defined in this Termination Agreement have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Agreement. 
 2.
Termination of the Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Termination Agreement, the Agreement is hereby terminated as of the date first written above (the “Termination Date”). From and after the Termination
Date, the Agreement will be of no further force or effect, and the rights and obligations of each of the Parties thereunder shall terminate, except for any rights and obligations of the Parties that are expressly designated under Sections 6.12 and 7
of the Agreement to survive the termination of the Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions of this Termination Agreement. 
 3.
Mutual Release. 
 (a) In consideration of the covenants, agreements, and undertakings of the Parties under this
Termination Agreement, each Party, on behalf of itself and its respective present and former parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, officers, directors, shareholders, members, successors, and assigns (collectively, “Releasors”) hereby
releases, waives, and forever discharges the other Party and its respective present and former, direct and indirect, parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, employees, officers, directors, shareholders, members, agents, representatives, permitted
successors, and permitted assigns (collectively, “Releasees”) of and from any and all actions, causes of action, suits, losses, liabilities, rights, debts, dues, sums of money, accounts, reckonings, obligations, costs, expenses,
liens, bonds, bills, specialties, covenants, contracts, controversies, agreements, promises, variances, trespasses, damages, judgments, extents, executions, claims, and demands, of every kind and nature whatsoever, whether now known or unknown,
foreseen or unforeseen, matured or unmatured, suspected or unsuspected, in law, admiralty, or equity (collectively, “Claims”), 











 
which any of such Releasors ever had, now have, or hereafter can, shall, or may have against any of such Releasees for, upon, or by reason of any matter, cause, or thing whatsoever from the
beginning of time through the date of this Termination Agreement arising out of or relating to the Agreement, except for any Claims relating to rights and obligations preserved by, created by, or otherwise arising out of this Termination Agreement
(including any surviving indemnification obligations under the Agreement). 
 (b) Each Party, on behalf of itself and each of
its respective Releasors, understands that it may later discover Claims or facts that may be different than, or in addition to, those that it or any other Releasor now knows or believes to exist regarding the subject matter of the release contained
in this Section 3, and which, if known at the time of signing this Termination Agreement, may have materially affected this Termination Agreement and such Party’s decision to enter into it and grant the release contained in this
Section 3. Nevertheless, the Releasors intend to fully, finally and forever settle and release all Claims that now exist, may exist or previously existed, as set forth in the release contained in this Section 3, whether known
or unknown, foreseen or unforeseen, or suspected or unsuspected, and the release given herein is and will remain in effect as a complete release, notwithstanding the discovery or existence of such additional or different facts. The Releasors hereby
waive any right or Claim that might arise as a result of such different or additional Claims or facts. 
 4. Representations and
Warranties. Each Party hereby represents and warrants to the other Party that: 
 (a) It has the full right, corporate or
other entity power, and authority to enter into this Termination Agreement and to perform its obligations hereunder. 
 (b)
The execution of this Termination Agreement by the individual whose signature is set forth at the end of this Termination Agreement on behalf of such Party, and the delivery of this Termination Agreement by such Party, have been duly authorized by
all necessary corporate or other entity action on the part of such Party. 
 (c) This Termination Agreement has been executed
and delivered by such Party and (assuming due authorization, execution, and delivery by the other Party hereto) constitutes the legal, valid, and binding obligation of such Party, enforceable against such Party in accordance with its terms, except
as may be limited by any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws and equitable principles related to or affecting creditors’ rights generally or the effect of general principles of equity.

AGREEMENT, (A) NEITHER PARTY HERETO NOR ANY PERSON ON SUCH PARTY’S BEHALF HAS MADE OR MAKES ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WHATSOEVER, EITHER
