AGREEMENT


 


1. Lock-Up.


 


(a) During
the Lock-up Period (as defined below), the Holder irrevocably agrees that it will not offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise
dispose of, directly or indirectly, any of the Lock-up Shares (as defined below), enter into a transaction that would have the same effect,
or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership
of such Lock-up Shares, whether any of these transactions are to be settled by delivery of any such Lock-up Shares, in cash or otherwise,
publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other
arrangement, or engage in any Short Sales (as defined below) with respect to any security of Pubco (these actions, collectively, “Transfer”).


 


(b) In
furtherance of the foregoing, Pubco will (i) place an irrevocable stop order on all Lock-up Shares, including those which may be covered
by a registration statement, and (ii) notify Pubco’s transfer agent in writing of the stop order and the restrictions on such Lock-up
Shares under this Agreement and direct the Pubco’s transfer agent not to process any attempts by the Holder to resell or transfer
any Lock-up Shares, except in compliance with this Agreement.


 






     


     


    

 


(c) For
purposes hereof, “Short Sales” include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200
promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and all
types of direct and indirect stock pledges, forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on
a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-US broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers.


 


(d) For
purpose of this Agreement, the “Lock-up Period” means with respect to the Lock-up Shares, the period commencing on
Closing Date and ending on the date that is six (6) months thereafter.


 


The
restrictions set forth herein shall not apply to:


 


(1)
Transfers or distributions to the Holder’s current or former general or limited partners, managers or members, stockholders, other
equity holders or direct or indirect affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended);


 


(2)
Transfers by bona fide gift to a member of the Holder’s immediate family or to a trust, the beneficiary of which is the Holder
or a member of the Holder’s immediate family or to a charitable organization;


 


(3)
by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death of the Holder;


 


(4)
by operation of law or pursuant to a court order, such as a qualified domestic relations order, divorce decree or separation agreement;


 


(5)
Transfers to a partnership, limited liability company or other entity of which the Holder and/or the Holder’s immediate family
are the legal and beneficial owner of all of the outstanding equity securities or similar interests;


 


(6)
in the case of an entity that is a trust, Transfers to a trustor or beneficiary of the trust or to the estate of a beneficiary of such
trust;


 


(7)
Transfers of any Pubco Ordinary Shares or other securities acquired as part of the PIPE Financing or issued in exchange for, or on conversion
or exercise of, any securities issued as part of the PIPE Financing;


 


(8)
Transfers relating to Pubco Ordinary Shares or other securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Pubco Ordinary Shares
acquired in open market transactions after the Closing Date, provided that no such transaction is required to be, or is, publicly
announced (whether on Form 4, Form 5 or otherwise, other than a required filing on Schedule 13F, 13G or 13G/A) during
the Lock-up Period; and


 


(9)
the entry, by the Holder, at any time after the effective time of the Merger, of any trading plan providing for the sale of Pubco Ordinary
Shares by the Holder, which trading plan meets the requirements of Rule 10b5-1(c) under the Exchange Act, provided, however,
that such plan does not provide for, or permit, the sale of any Pubco Ordinary Shares during the Lock-up Period and no public announcement
or filing is voluntarily made or required regarding such plan during the Lock-up Period;


 


in
the case of clauses (1) through (9) where such transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement.


 



    2


     


    

 


In
addition, after the Closing Date, if there is a Change of Control, then upon the consummation of such Change of Control, all Lock-up
Shares shall be released from the restrictions contained herein. A “Change of Control” means: (a) the sale of all
or substantially all of the consolidated assets of Pubco and Pubco’s subsidiaries to a third-party purchaser; (b) a sale resulting
in no less than a majority of the voting power of Pubco being held by person that did not own a majority of the voting power prior to
such sale; or (c) a merger, consolidation, recapitalization or reorganization of Pubco with or into a third-party purchaser that results
in the inability of the pre-transaction equity holders to designate or elect a majority of the board of directors (or its equivalent)
of the resulting entity or its parent company.
