INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT TRUST AGREEMENT 

This Investment Management Trust Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made effective as of April 29, 2020 by and
between Fortress Value Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, a New York corporation (the “Trustee”). 

WHEREAS, the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1,
No. 333-236940 (the “Registration Statement”), and prospectus (the “Prospectus”) for the initial public offering of the Company’s units (the
“Units”), each of which consists of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and one-third of
one redeemable warrant, each whole warrant entitling the holder thereof to purchase one share of Common Stock (such initial public offering hereinafter referred to as the “Offering”), has been declared effective as of the
date hereof by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; and 
 WHEREAS, the Company has entered into an Underwriting Agreement (the
“Underwriting Agreement”) with Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and RBC Capital Markets, LLC, as representatives (the “Representatives”) of the several underwriters (the
“Underwriters”) named therein; and 
 WHEREAS, as described in the Prospectus, $300,000,000 of the gross proceeds of
the Offering and sale of the Private Placement Warrants (as defined in the Underwriting Agreement) (or $345,000,000 if the Underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full) will be delivered to the Trustee to be deposited and held in a
segregated trust account located at all times in the United States (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of the Company and the holders of shares of the Common Stock included in the Units issued in the Offering as hereinafter
provided (the amount to be delivered to the Trustee (and any interest subsequently earned thereon) is referred to herein as the “Property,” the stockholders for whose benefit the Trustee shall hold the Property will be
referred to as the “Public Stockholders,” and the Public Stockholders and the Company will be referred to together as the “Beneficiaries”); and 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, a portion of the Property equal to $10,500,000, or $12,075,000 if the Underwriters’
over-allotment option is exercised in full, is attributable to deferred underwriting discounts and commissions that may be payable by the Company to the Underwriters upon the consummation of the Business Combination (as defined below) (the
“Deferred Discount”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Company and the Trustee desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth
the terms and conditions pursuant to which the Trustee shall hold the Property. 
 NOW THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED: 

1. Agreements and Covenants of Trustee. The Trustee hereby agrees and covenants to: 

(a) Hold the Property in trust for the Beneficiaries in accordance with the terms of this Agreement in the Trust Account established by the
Trustee at a branch office of J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. located in the United States and at a brokerage institution selected by the Trustee that is reasonably satisfactory to the Company; 












 (b) Manage, supervise and administer the Trust Account subject to the terms and conditions
set forth herein; 
 (c) In a timely manner, upon the written instruction of the Company, invest and reinvest the Property in United States
government securities within the meaning of Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, having a maturity of 185 days or less, or in money market funds meeting the conditions of paragraphs (d)(1), (d)(2), (d)(3) and
(d)(4) of Rule 2a-7 promulgated under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (or any successor rule), which invest only in direct U.S. government treasury obligations, as determined by the Company; the
Trustee may not invest in any other securities or assets, it being understood that the Trust Account will earn no interest while account funds are uninvested awaiting the Company’s instructions hereunder and the Trustee may earn bank credits or
other consideration during such periods; 
 (d) Collect and receive, when due, all principal, 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 and the Representatives 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 preparation of the tax returns relating to assets held in the Trust Account or in connection with the preparation or completion of the audit of the Company’s financial statements by the Company’s auditors; 

(g) Participate in any plan or proceeding for protecting or enforcing any right or interest arising from the Property if, as and when
instructed by the Company to do so; 
 (h) Render to the Company monthly written statements of the activities of, and amounts in, the Trust
Account reflecting all receipts and disbursements of the Trust Account; 
 (i) Commence liquidation of the Trust Account only after and
promptly after (x) receipt of, and only in accordance with, the terms of a letter from the Company (“Termination Letter”) in a form substantially similar to that attached hereto as either Exhibit A or Exhibit
B, as applicable, signed on behalf of the Company by its Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Secretary or Chairman of the board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) or other authorized
officer of the Company, and complete the liquidation of the Trust Account and distribute the Property in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes
(less up to $100,000 of interest that may be released to the Company to pay dissolution expenses), only as directed in the Termination Letter and the other documents referred to therein; or (y) the date which is 24 months after the closing of
the Offering, if a 












 
Termination Letter has not been received by the Trustee prior to such date, in which case the Trust Account shall be liquidated in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Termination
Letter attached as Exhibit B and the Property in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest that may be
released to the Company to pay dissolution expenses) shall be distributed to the Public Stockholders of record as of such date; provided, however, that in the event the Trustee receives a Termination Letter in a form substantially
similar to Exhibit B hereto, or if the Trustee begins to liquidate the Property because it has received no such Termination Letter by the date which is 24 months from the closing of the Offering, the Trustee shall keep the Trust Account open
until twelve (12) months following the date the Property has been distributed to the Public Stockholders; 
 (j) 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 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 initially deposited in the Trust Account; provided, further, 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 from the State of Delaware 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 “Stockholder Redemption Withdrawal Instruction”), the Trustee shall distribute on behalf of the Company the amount requested by the Company to be used to
redeem shares of Common Stock from Public Stockholders properly submitted in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) that would modify the substance
or timing of the Company’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination or to redeem 100% of its public shares of Common Stock if the Company has not consummated an initial Business
Combination within such time as is described in the Company’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ 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
Sections 1(i), 1(j) or 1(k) above. 
 2. Agreements and Covenants of the Company. The Company hereby agrees and
covenants to: 
 (a) Give all instructions to the Trustee hereunder in writing, signed by the Company’s Chairman of the Board,
President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or Secretary. In addition, except with respect to its duties under Sections 1(i), 1(j) and 1(k) hereof, the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on, and shall be protected
in relying on, any verbal or telephonic advice or instruction which it, in good faith and with reasonable care, believes to be given by any one of the persons authorized above to give written instructions, provided that the Company shall promptly
confirm such instructions in writing; 
 (b) Subject to Section 4 hereof, hold the Trustee harmless and indemnify
the Trustee from and against any and all documented expenses, including reasonable outside counsel fees and disbursements, or losses suffered by the Trustee in connection with any action taken by it hereunder and in connection with any action, suit
or other proceeding brought against the Trustee involving any claim, or in connection with any claim or demand, which in any way arises out of or relates to this Agreement, the services of the Trustee hereunder, or the Property or any interest
earned on the Property, except for expenses and losses resulting from the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct. Promptly after the receipt by the Trustee of notice of demand or claim or the commencement of any action, 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; 
 (c) Pay the Trustee the fees set forth on Schedule A hereto, including an initial acceptance fee, annual
administration fee, and transaction processing fee which fees shall be subject to modification by the parties from time to time. It is expressly understood that the Property shall not be used to pay such fees unless and until it is distributed to,
or on behalf of, the Company pursuant to Sections 1(i) through 1(k) hereof. The Company shall pay the Trustee the initial acceptance fee and the first annual administration fee at the consummation of the Offering. The Trustee shall
refund to the Company the annual administration fee (on a pro rata basis) with respect to any period after the liquidation of the Trust Account. The Company shall not be responsible for any other fees or charges of the Trustee except as set forth in
this Section 2(c), Schedule A and as may be provided in Section 2(b) hereof; 

(d) In connection with any vote of the Company’s stockholders regarding a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock
purchase, reorganization or similar business combination involving the Company and one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”), provide to the Trustee an affidavit or certificate of the inspector of elections for the
stockholder meeting verifying the vote of such stockholders regarding such Business Combination; 












 (e) Provide the Representatives with a copy of any Termination Letter(s) and/or any other
correspondence that is sent to the Trustee with respect to any proposed withdrawal from the Trust Account promptly after it issues the same; 

(f) Instruct the Trustee to make only those distributions that are permitted under this Agreement, and refrain from instructing the Trustee to
make any distributions that are not permitted under this Agreement; 
 (g) Within four (4) business days after the Underwriters exercise
the over-allotment option (or any unexercised portion thereof) or such over-allotment option expires, provide the Trustee with a notice in writing of the total amount of the Deferred Discount, which shall in no event be less than $10,500,000 (or
$12,075,000 if the Underwriters’ over-allotment option is exercised in full); and 
 (h) Expressly provide in any Instruction Letter (as
defined in Exhibit A) delivered in connection with a Termination Letter in the Form of Exhibit A that the Deferred Discount be paid directly to the account or accounts directed by the applicable Underwriters. 

3. Limitations of Liability. The Trustee shall have no responsibility or liability to: 

(a) Imply obligations, perform duties, inquire or otherwise be subject to the provisions of any agreement or document other than this Agreement
and that which is expressly set forth herein; 
 (b) Take any action with respect to the Property, other than as directed in
Section 1 hereof, and the Trustee shall have no liability to any party under this Agreement except for liability arising out of the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct; 

(c) Institute any proceeding for the collection of any principal and income arising from, or institute, appear in or defend any proceeding of
any kind with respect to, any of the Property unless and until it shall have received instructions from the Company given as provided herein to do so and the Company shall have advanced or guaranteed to it funds sufficient to pay any expenses
incident thereto; 
 (d) Refund any depreciation in principal of any Property; 

(e) Assume that the authority of any person designated by the Company to give instructions hereunder shall not be continuing unless provided
otherwise in such designation, or unless the Company shall have delivered a written revocation of such authority to the Trustee; 
 (f) The
Company or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted, in good faith and in the Trustee’s best judgment, except for the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct.
The Trustee may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion 












 
or advice of counsel (including counsel chosen by the Trustee, which counsel may be the Company’s counsel), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not only as to its due
execution and the validity and effectiveness of its 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 evidenced by a written instrument
delivered to the Trustee, signed by the proper party or parties and, if the duties or rights of the Trustee are affected, unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto; 

(g) Verify the accuracy of the information contained in the Registration Statement; 

(h) Provide any assurance that any Business Combination entered into by the Company or any other action taken by the Company is as contemplated
by the Registration Statement; 
 (i) File information returns with respect to the Trust Account with any local, state or federal taxing
authority or provide periodic written statements to the Company documenting the taxes payable by the Company, if any, relating to any interest income earned on the Property; 

(j) Prepare, execute and file tax reports, income or other tax returns and pay any taxes with respect to any income generated by, and
activities relating to, the Trust Account, regardless of whether such tax is payable by the Trust Account or the Company, including, but not limited to, franchise and income tax obligations, except pursuant to Section 1(j)
hereof; or 
 (k) Verify calculations, qualify or otherwise approve the Company’s written requests for distributions pursuant to
Sections 1(i), 1(j) and 1(k) hereof. 
 4. Trust Account Waiver. The Trustee has no right of set-off or any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account, and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim to, or to any monies in, the Trust
Account that it may have now or in the future. In the event the Trustee has any Claim against the Company under this Agreement, including, without limitation, under Section 2(b) or Section 2(c)
hereof, the Trustee shall pursue such Claim solely against the Company and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the Property or any monies in the Trust Account. 

5. Termination. This Agreement shall terminate as follows: 

(a) If the Trustee gives written notice to the Company that it desires to resign under this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable
efforts to locate a successor trustee, pending which the Trustee shall continue to act in accordance with this Agreement. At such time that the Company notifies the Trustee that a successor trustee has been appointed by the Company and has agreed to
become subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee shall transfer the management of the Trust Account to the successor trustee, including but not limited to the transfer of copies of the reports and statements relating to the Trust Account,
whereupon this Agreement shall terminate; provided, however, that in the event that the Company does not 












 
locate a successor trustee within ninety (90) days of receipt of the resignation notice from the Trustee, the Trustee may submit an application to have the Property deposited with any court
in the State of New York or with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and upon such deposit, the Trustee shall be immune from any liability whatsoever; or 

(b) At such time that the Trustee has completed the liquidation of the Trust Account and its obligations in accordance with the provisions of
Section 1(i) hereof and distributed the Property in accordance with the provisions of the Termination Letter, this Agreement shall terminate except with respect to Section 2(b). 

6. Miscellaneous. 
 (a) The
Company and the Trustee each acknowledge that the Trustee will follow the security procedures set forth below with respect to funds transferred from the Trust Account. The Company and the Trustee will each restrict access to confidential information
relating to such security procedures to authorized persons. Each party must notify the other party immediately if it has reason to believe unauthorized persons may have obtained access to such confidential information, or of any change in its
authorized personnel. In executing funds transfers, the Trustee shall rely upon all information supplied to it by the Company, including, account names, account numbers, and all other identifying information relating to a Beneficiary,
Beneficiary’s bank or intermediary bank. Except for any liability arising out of the Trustee’s gross negligence, fraud or willful misconduct, the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss, liability or expense resulting from any error in
the information or transmission of the funds. 
 (b) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. 

(c) This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except for
Sections 1(i), 1(j) and 1(k) hereof (which sections may not be modified, amended or deleted without the affirmative vote of sixty-five percent (65%) of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock and
Class F common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company, voting together as a single class; provided that no such amendment will affect any Public Stockholder who has properly elected to redeem his, her or its shares of Common Stock
in connection with a stockholder 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 the parties hereto.

 (d) The parties hereto consent to the jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located in the City of New York, State of New
York, for purposes of resolving any disputes hereunder. AS TO ANY CLAIM, CROSS-CLAIM OR COUNTERCLAIM IN ANY WAY RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, EACH PARTY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

	 	Re:	 Trust Account No. Termination Letter 



Dear Mr. Wolf and Ms. Gonzalez: 

Pursuant to Section 1(i) of the Investment Management Trust Agreement between Fortress Value Acquisition Corp. (the
“Company”) and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Trustee”), dated as of [●], 2020 (the “Trust Agreement”), this is to advise you that the Company
has entered into an agreement with                 (the “Target Business”) to consummate a business combination with Target Business (the
“Business Combination”) on or about [insert date]. The Company shall notify you at least seventy-two (72) hours in advance of the actual date (or such shorter time period as you
may agree) of the consummation of the Business Combination (the “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 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 the Company, and solely with respect to the Deferred Discount, the [Underwriters], shall direct on the Consummation Date. It is acknowledged and agreed that while the funds are on deposit in the trust operating account at J.P. Morgan
Chase Bank, N.A. awaiting distribution, neither the Company nor the Underwriters will earn any interest or dividends. 
 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] [a certificate] of the Chief Executive Officer of the Company, which verifies that the Business Combination has been approved by a
vote of the Company’s stockholders, if a vote is held and (b) [joint written instruction signed by the Company and any of the Representatives] with respect to the transfer of the funds held in the Trust Account, including payment of amounts
owed to public stockholders who have properly exercised their redemption rights and express instructions to pay the Deferred Discount from the Trust Account directly to the account or accounts directed by the [Underwriters] (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. 

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.
