which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company; it being understood that the Trust Account
will earn no interest while account funds are uninvested awaiting the Company’s instructions hereunder; while account funds are
invested or uninvested, 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, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC 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

(g)

the Company’s position that an allocation has been made for taxes payable), only as directed in the Termination Letter and the other
documents referred to therein; provided, that, in the case a Termination Letter in the form of Exhibit A is received, or (y) upon
the date which is 18 months (or up to 24 months if Pearl Holdings Sponsor LLC, a Cayman Islands limited liability company (the “Sponsor”),
exercises its extension options, as described in the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, as it

Letter attached as Exhibit B and the Property in the Trust Account, including interest (less up to $100,000 of interest that may be released

Exhibit C (a “Tax Payment Withdrawal Instruction”), 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 per share initially deposited in the Trust Account; provided, further,
however, 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 for the Company and a written statement from the principal financial officer of the Company
setting forth the actual amount payable (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). 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;


 





(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 (a “Shareholder
Redemption Withdrawal Instruction”), the Trustee shall distribute on behalf of the Company the amount requested by the Company
to be used to redeem Ordinary Shares from Public Shareholders properly submitted in connection with a shareholder vote to approve an amendment

obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase,
reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses (a “Business Combination”)
or to redeem 100% of the Company’s public shares if it does not complete its initial Business Combination within 18 months (or up
to 24 months if the Sponsor exercises its extension options) from the closing of the Offering or (B) with respect to any other provision
relating to shareholders’ 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




 


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

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. 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. The Company
may participate in such action with its own counsel;

and that which is expressly set forth herein;

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

shall terminate except with respect to Section 2(b); or


 






    6


    


    

 


(c) If

as applicable.

as a single class; provided that no such amendment will affect any Public Shareholder who has otherwise indicated his, her or its election
to redeem his, her or its Ordinary Shares in connection with a shareholder vote sought to amend this Agreement), 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

		Re:	Trust
Account - Termination Letter



 


Dear
Mr. Wolf and Ms. Gonzalez:


 


Pursuant
to Section 1(i) of the Investment Management Trust Agreement between Pearl Holdings Acquisition Corp (the “Company”)
and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trustee”), dated as of [●], 2021 (the “Trust
Agreement”), this is to advise you that the Company has entered into an agreement with [●] (the “Target
Business”) to consummate a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business
combination with the Target Business (the “Business Combination”) on or about [●]. The Company
shall notify you at least 72 hours in advance of the actual date (or such shorter time period as you may agree) of the consummation of
the Business Combination (“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 the above-referenced Trust Account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. 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 Morgan Stanley
& Co. LLC (the “Representative”) (with respect to the Deferred Discount) and the Company shall direct on
the Consummation Date. It is acknowledged and agreed that while the funds are on deposit in the Trust Account at J.P. Morgan Chase Bank,
N.A. awaiting distribution, neither the Company nor the Representatives will earn any interest.


 


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 substantially, 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 or a certificate by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer,
Vice Chairman or Chairman of the Board, which verifies that the Business Combination has been approved by a vote of the Company’s
shareholders, if a vote is held and (b) joint written instruction signed by the Company and the Representative with respect to the transfer
of the funds held in the Trust Account, including payment of the Deferred Discount 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.


 






    A-1


    


    

 


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 the notice as soon thereafter as possible.

Dear
Mr. Wolf and Ms. Gonzalez:


 


Pursuant
to Section 1(i) of the Investment Management Trust Agreement between Pearl Holdings Acquisition Corp (the “Company”)
and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trustee”), dated as of [●], 2021 (the “Trust

Company’s Prospectus relating to the Offering. 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 liquidate all of the assets in the Trust Account and to
transfer the total proceeds into the Trust Account at JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to await distribution to the Public Shareholders. The
Company has selected [●] as the effective date for the purpose of determining when the Public Shareholders will be entitled to
receive their share of the liquidation proceeds. You agree to be the Paying Agent of record and, in your separate capacity as Paying
Agent, agree to distribute said funds directly to the Company’s Public Shareholders in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement
and the amended and restated memorandum and articles of association of the Company. Upon the distribution of all the funds, your obligations
under the Trust Agreement shall be terminated, except to the extent otherwise provided in Section 1(j) of the Trust Agreement.
