14.
Transfer of this Note. With respect to any sale or other disposition of this Note, the Payee shall give written notice to
the Maker prior thereto, describing briefly the manner thereof, together with (i) except for a Permitted Transfer, in which case
the requirements in this clause (i) shall not apply, a written opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Maker in form and substance
from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Maker to the effect that such sale or other distribution may be effected without registration
or qualification under any federal or state law then in effect and (ii) a written undertaking executed by the desired transferee
reasonably satisfactory to the Maker in form and substance agreeing to be bound by the restrictions on transfer contained herein.
Upon receiving such written notice, reasonably satisfactory opinion, or other evidence, and such written acknowledgement, the
Maker, as promptly as practicable, shall notify the Payee that the Payee may sell or otherwise dispose of this Note or such securities,
all in accordance with the terms of the note delivered to the Maker. If a determination has been made pursuant to this Section
14 that the opinion of counsel for the Payee, or other evidence, or the written acknowledgment from the desired transferee, is
not reasonably satisfactory to the Maker, the Maker shall so notify the Payee promptly after such determination has been made.
Each Note thus transferred shall bear a legend as to the applicable restrictions on transferability in order to ensure compliance
with the Securities Act, unless in the opinion of counsel for the Maker such legend is not required in order to ensure compliance
with the Securities Act. The Maker may issue stop transfer instructions to its transfer agent in connection with such restrictions.
Subject to the foregoing, transfers of this Note shall be registered upon registration on the books maintained for such purpose
by or on behalf of the Maker. Prior to presentation of this Note for registration of transfer, the Maker shall treat the registered
holder hereof as the owner and holder of this Note for the purpose of receiving all payments of principal hereon and for all other
purposes whatsoever, whether or not this Note shall be overdue and the Maker shall not be affected by notice to the contrary.
For purposes hereof “Permitted Transfer” shall have the same meaning as any transfer that would be permitted
for the Private Placement Warrants under the Letter Agreement, dated June 19, 2018, among the Maker, the Payee and the other parties
thereto.


15.
Acknowledgment. The Payee is acquiring this Note for investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with
a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof. The Payee understands that the acquisition of this Note
involves substantial risk. The Payee has experience as an investor in securities of companies and acknowledges that it is able
to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its investment in this Note, and has such knowledge and experience in financial
and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in this Note and protecting its
own interests in connection with this investment.
