***Purchase Agreement***

On November 25, 2025, Blue Water Acquisition Corp. III (the "Company"), Blue Water Acquisition III LLC (the "Prior Sponsor") and Yorkville BW Acquisition Sponsor, LLC (the "New Sponsor") entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"). Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on November 25, 2025, the New Sponsor (i) purchased from the Prior Sponsor (a) 6,325,000 shares of Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (each, a "Class B Ordinary Share") and (b) 430,000 private placement units (each, a "Private Unit"), with each Private Unit comprised of one Class A ordinary share, par value US$0.0001 per share, of the Company (each, a "Class A Ordinary Share"), and one-half of one warrant, with each whole warrant entitling the holder to purchase one Class A Ordinary Share, at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (each, a "Private Warrant"), for an aggregate purchase price of $7,200,000 and (ii) upon closing, became the sponsor of the Company (together, the "Purchase").

As a condition to consummation of the Purchase, all of the then-existing members of the Board of Directors (the "Prior Board") and all then-existing officers of the Company resigned, and the New Sponsor designated (i) a new board of directors, which was elected immediately prior to the closing of the Purchase by the Prior Sponsor as the then-sole holder of the Class B Ordinary Shares in accordance with the terms of the Company's amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, and (ii) a new management team, which was appointed immediately prior to the closing of the Purchase by the Prior Board, effective as of the closing of the Purchase.

Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the New Sponsor agreed, among other things, to (i) deliver executed consents to act as directors and officers for the incoming directors and officers, (ii) execute a joinder agreement (the "Joinder") to become a party to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated June 9, 2025 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), among the Company, the Prior Sponsor, the underwriter of the Company's initial public offering, BTIG, LLC (the "Underwriter"), and the other parties thereto and (iii) enter into a side letter agreement with the Company (the "Insider Letter") providing for, among other things, voting obligations and certain transfer restrictions. The Prior Sponsor and the Company, among other things, agreed to (i) deliver resignation letters from all outgoing directors and officers, and (ii) cause all parties to the Letter Agreement dated June 9, 2025, by and among the Company, the Prior Sponsor and each of the directors and officers of the Company (the "Prior Insider Letter"), to execute a waiver to certain requirements of the Prior Insider Letter such that the New Sponsor need not execute a joinder or become a party to the Prior Insider Letter.

The Purchase Agreement provided that consummation of the Purchase was conditional on, among other things, (i) the transfer of the Class B Ordinary Shares and Private Units to the New Sponsor, (ii) the written resignation of all existing members of the Prior Board and all then-existing officers of the Company, (iii) the appointment of the incoming directors and officers selected by the New Sponsor, (iv) the termination of all Company related party contracts and certain commercial arrangements, (v) the payment of all outstanding invoices of the Company by the closing, (vi) the execution of a written amendment to the Underwriting Agreement, dated June 9, 2025 by and among the Company and the Underwriter (the "Underwriting Agreement"), which provides that effective automatically upon the closing of the Purchase Agreement (a) the Right of First Refusal of the Underwriting Agreement is deleted in its entirety and (b) all rights of first refusal in favor of the Underwriter under the Underwriting Agreement are terminated, with no survival, tail or continuing effect, and (vii) the Company's continued listing on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC through the closing. There was no requirement that the Company hold any cash or cash equivalents, exclusive of the trust account, after payment of its outstanding liabilities as of the closing of the Purchase. The conditions to the closing of the Purchase were satisfied.

The Purchase Agreement contained customary representations and warranties of the parties, including, among others, with respect to corporate authority. The Purchase Agreement also included indemnification provisions pursuant to which the Prior Sponsor has agreed to indemnify the New Sponsor and the Company for certain losses, damages, liabilities, and claims, including those arising from breaches of representations and warranties, claims by third parties, or any failure to deliver the acquired securities free and clear of liens or other encumbrances. The representations and warranties of each party set forth in the Purchase Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the other parties to the Purchase Agreement, and shareholders of the Company are not third-party beneficiaries of the Purchase Agreement. In addition, such representations and warranties (i) are subject to materiality and other qualifications contained in the Purchase Agreement, which may differ from what may be viewed as material by the Company's shareholders, (ii) were made only as of the date of the Purchase Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Purchase Agreement and (iii) may have been included in the Purchase Agreement for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, the Purchase Agreement is included with this filing only to provide the Company's shareholders with information regarding the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and not to provide the Company's shareholders with any other factual information regarding any of the parties or their respective businesses.

Upon the closing of the Purchase, the New Sponsor became the sponsor of the Company and the new directors and officers designated by the New Sponsor assumed their positions as further described in Item 5.02. In addition, and as described below, upon the closing of the Purchase, in accordance with the terms of the Joinder to become a party to the Registration Rights Agreement, the New Sponsor became a party to the Registration Rights Agreement. Following the closing of the Purchase, the Company intends to continue to do business under the name "Blue Water Acquisition Corp. III."

***Letter Agreement Waiver***

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, on November 25, 2025, the Company entered into a limited waiver with the Prior Sponsor and the other parties to the Prior Insider Letter, which was acknowledged and agreed to by the Underwriter (the "Waiver"). Pursuant to the Waiver, the parties to the Prior Insider Letter agreed to waive the requirement of the Prior Insider Letter that the New Sponsor execute a joinder and become a party to the Prior Insider Letter. As a result of the Waiver, the New Sponsor has not become a party to the Prior Insider Letter. Furthermore, the Prior Insider Letter has been terminated upon the closing of the Purchase.

***Insider Letter***

Additionally, in connection with the entry into the Purchase Agreement, the New Sponsor, the Company, and each of the individuals designated to become officers or directors of the Company upon the closing of the Purchase (the "Insiders") entered into the Insider Letter dated as of November 25, 2025, whereby the New Sponsor and each Insider has agreed, among other things, (i) to vote all Class B Ordinary Shares and any other shares acquired by the New Sponsor or such Insider in favor of any proposed business combination, and not to redeem any Class A Ordinary Shares owned by the New Sponsor or such Insider in connection with such business combination, and, if the Company seeks to consummate a business combination by engaging in a tender offer, not to sell or tender any Class A Ordinary Shares or Class B Ordinary Shares owned by the New Sponsor or such Insider in connection therewith; (ii) that in the event the Company fails to consummate a business combination within the time period required by its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, the New Sponsor and each Insider will take all reasonable steps to cause the Company to cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, redeem 100% of the Class A Ordinary Shares sold as part of the units in the Company's initial public offering, and dissolve and liquidate the Company, subject to applicable law; (iii) not to propose any amendment to the Company's governing documents (other than in connection with a business combination) that would modify the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to allow redemption in connection with a business combination or to redeem 100% of the public shares if a business combination is not completed within the required timeframe, unless public shareholders are provided with the opportunity to redeem their shares; (iv) to acknowledge that the New Sponsor and each Insider will not be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any Class B Ordinary Shares held by them if the Company fails to complete a business combination within the required timeframe, although the New Sponsor and each Insider will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the trust account with respect to any public shares they hold if the Company fails to complete a business combination within the prescribed time frame; (v) that the Company will indemnify the New Sponsor and its affiliates, managers, and certain other related persons for certain costs, fees, and expenses incurred in connection with investment opportunities sourced for the Company or activities in connection with the Company's affairs, subject to certain exceptions; (vi) that the New Sponsor will indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense to which the Company may become subject as a result of certain claims by third parties for services rendered or products sold to the Company or a prospective target business, to the extent necessary to ensure that such claims do not reduce the amount of funds in the trust account below the required per-share amount, subject to certain exceptions; (vii) that monetary damages may be inadequate for a breach of certain obligations under the Insider Letter and that injunctive relief may be available; and (viii) that the New Sponsor will not transfer any of the 6,325,000 Class B Ordinary Shares and 430,000 Private Units acquired in connection with the Purchase Agreement prior to the closing of the Company's initial business combination, except to certain permitted transferees who agree to be bound by the terms of the Insider Letter.

***Joinder to and Amendment of the Registration Rights Agreement***

On November 25, 2025, the New Sponsor entered into the Joinder that was acknowledged and agreed to by the Company and the Prior Sponsor. Pursuant to the Joinder, the New Sponsor became a party to the Registration Rights Agreement. Under the terms of the Joinder, the New Sponsor agreed to be subject to the rights and obligations of the Registration Rights Agreement applicable to the sponsor, other than any transfer restrictions or lock-up obligations, which were expressly removed as to the New Sponsor upon its acquisition of the Company's securities from the Prior Sponsor.

Entry into the Joinder was a condition to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, as previously described in this Current Report on Form 8-K.

The foregoing descriptions of the Purchase Agreement, the Insider Letter and the Joinder are not complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the text of such documents, which are filed hereto as Exhibit 10.1, Exhibit 10.2 and Exhibit 10.3, respectively, and which are incorporated herein by reference.

The financial statements of the SPAC included in the SEC Reports comply in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and the rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, and were prepared in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may be indicated therein or in the notes thereto and except with respect to unaudited statements as permitted by Form 10-Q of the SEC) and fairly present (subject, in the case of the unaudited interim financial statements included therein, to normal year-end adjustments (the effect of which will not, individually or in the aggregate, be material) and the absence of complete footnotes) in all material respects the financial position of the SPAC as of the respective dates thereof and the results of its operations and cash flows for the respective periods then ended.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.7.3 The SPAC has no direct or indirect liabilities or obligations for indebtedness for borrowed money.

Such disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material information relating to the SPAC is made known to the SPAC's principal executive officers and its principal financial officer. Such disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting the SPAC's principal executive officers and principal financial officer to material information required to be included in the SPAC's financial statements included in the SPAC's periodic reports required under the Exchange Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.7.5 The SPAC has established and maintains systems of internal accounting controls that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that (i) all transactions are executed in accordance with management's authorization and (ii) all transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of proper and accurate financial statements in accordance with GAAP and to maintain accountability for the SPAC's assets.

In the event of the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1, this entire Agreement shall forthwith become void (and there shall be no liability or obligation on the part of the Parties and their respective Representatives) with the exception of this Section 10.2, Sections 12 through 22 and Section 1 (to the extent related to the foregoing), each of which shall survive such termination and remain valid and binding obligations of the Parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.1 shall not affect any liability on the part of any Party for any willful and material breach of any covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement prior to such termination or fraud.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. **<u>Titles and Headings</u>**. The titles and section headings in this Agreement are included strictly for convenience purposes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. **<u>No Waiver</u>**. It is understood and agreed that no failure or delay in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. **<u>Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction</u>**. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflicts of laws rules. Each Party (a) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the New York State Unified Courts, to the extent such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the District of New York (collectively, the "**Courts**"), for purposes of any action, suit or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement; and (b) agrees not to raise any objection at any time to the laying or maintaining of the venue of any such action, suit or proceeding in any of the Courts, irrevocably waives any claim that such action, suit or other proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum and further irrevocably waives the right to object, with respect to such action, suit or other proceeding, that such Court does not have any jurisdiction over such Party. Any Party may serve any process required by such Courts by way of notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. **<u>WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL</u>**. EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THAT FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17. **<u>Entire Agreement</u>**. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes any previous understandings, commitments or agreements, oral or written, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

The Parties further agree that electronically stored copies of this Agreement shall be deemed to be originals and admissible as evidence of the contents hereof.

Re: <u>Sponsor and Insiders Obligations</u>

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter (this "***Letter Agreement***") is being delivered to you in connection with the Purchase Agreement (the "***Purchase Agreement***") entered into by and between Yorkville BW Acquisition Sponsor, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (the "***Sponsor***"), Blue Water Acquisition Corp. III, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the "***Company***"), and Blue Water Acquisition III, LLC (the "**Prior Sponsor**"). Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 8 hereof. Any capitalized terms that are used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Purchase Agreement. For good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each of the Sponsor and the undersigned individuals, each of whom will be a member of the Company's board of directors and/or management team upon the closing of the transactions provided for under the Purchase Agreement (each of the undersigned individuals, an "***Insider***" and collectively, the "***Insiders***"), hereby agrees with the Company as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The Sponsor and each Insider agree that if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection with such proposed Business Combination (as defined below), the Sponsor or the Insider shall (i) vote all Founder Shares (as defined below) and any other shares acquired by the Sponsor or the Insider in favor of such proposed Business Combination, except that the Sponsor or the Insider shall not vote any Class A Ordinary Shares (as defined below) that the Sponsor or the Insider purchased after the Company publicly announces its intention to engage in such proposed Business Combination for or against such proposed Business Combination and (ii) not redeem any Class A Ordinary Shares owned by the Sponsor or the Insider in connection with such shareholder approval. If the Company seeks to consummate a proposed Business Combination by engaging in a tender offer, the Sponsor and each Insider agrees that the Sponsor or the Insider will not sell or tender any Ordinary Shares owned by the Sponsor or the Insider in connection herewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The Sponsor and each Insider agree that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination by the date that is 24 months after the closing of the underwritten initial public offering of the Company which occurred on June 11, 2025 (the "***Public Offering***"), or such earlier date as Company's board of directors may approve, or such later date as the Company's shareholders may approve, in each case in accordance with the Company's amended and restated memorandum and articles of association, as may be amended from time to time (the "***Completion Window***" and the "***Memorandum and Articles***," respectively), the Sponsor and each Insider shall take all reasonable steps to cause the Company to (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten (10) business days thereafter, subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the Class A Ordinary Shares sold as part of the Units in the Public Offering (the "***Offering Shares***"), at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (which interest shall be net of taxes payable (but without deduction for any excise or similar tax that may be due or payable) and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of Offering Shares then in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish the Public Shareholders' rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any), subject to applicable law and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company's remaining shareholders and the Company's board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company's obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. The Sponsor and the Insiders agree to not propose any amendment to the Memorandum and Articles not for the purposes of approving, or in conjunction with the consummation of, a Business Combination (A) to modify the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to allow redemption in connection with a Business Combination or to redeem one hundred per cent (100%) of the Offering Shares if the Company has not consummated a Business Combination within the Completion Window or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to the rights of holders of Class A Ordinary Shares or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company provides its Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Offering Shares upon effectiveness of any such amendment at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes (but without deduction for any excise or similar tax that may be due or payable), divided by the number of Offering Shares then in issue, subject to applicable law. The Sponsor and each Insider acknowledges that the Sponsor or the Insider will not be entitled to rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Founder Shares held by such Sponsor or Insider if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Completion Window; although the Sponsor or the Insider will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any Offering Shares the Sponsor or the Insider holds if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the prescribed time frame. The Sponsor and each Insider hereby further acknowledge that the Sponsor or the Insider will not be entitled to (a) redemption rights with respect to any Founder Shares and Offering Shares held by such Sponsor of Insider, in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination, or (b) redemption rights with respect to Founder Shares and Offering Shares held by such Sponsor or Insider in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Memorandum and Articles in the manner described above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and the Memorandum and Articles, the Company hereby agrees to defend, indemnify, hold harmless and exonerate (including the advancement of expenses to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law) the Sponsor and its members (present and former), managers and affiliates and their respective present and former officers and directors (each, a "***Sponsor Indemnitee***") from any and all costs, fees, expenses, judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties, reasonable attorneys' fees and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of such costs, fees, expenses, judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement) actually, and reasonably, incurred by a Sponsor Indemnitee or on a Sponsor Indemnitee's behalf in connection with any threatened, pending or completed action, suit, arbitration, mediation, alternate dispute resolution mechanism, investigation, inquiry, hearing or any other actual, threatened or completed proceeding instituted by the Company or any third party, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative in nature, in respect of any investment opportunities sourced by a Sponsor Indemnitee for the Company or any liability arising with respect to a Sponsor Indemnitee's activities in connection with the affairs of the Company (in each case to the extent that such indemnification, hold harmless and exoneration obligations with respect to such matters are not expressly covered by a separate written agreement between the Company and the applicable Sponsor Indemnitee); provided, that in no event shall a Sponsor Indemnitee be entitled to be indemnified or held harmless hereunder in respect of any costs, fees, expenses, judgments, liabilities, fines, penalties and amounts paid in settlement (if any) that a Sponsor Indemnitee may incur by reason of such person's own actual fraud or intentional misconduct; provided, further, that, for the avoidance of doubt, under no circumstance shall a Sponsor Indemnitee have a claim to any monies or assets held in the Trust Account, and the Company shall not be permitted to procure monies or assets held in the Trust Account for the satisfaction of its obligations to any Sponsor Indemnitee in respect of the indemnification provided hereunder. The Sponsor Indemnitees shall be third party beneficiaries of this paragraph.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. In the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account, the Sponsor (which for purposes of clarification shall not extend to any officer, member or manager of the Sponsor) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, whether pending or threatened, or any claim whatsoever) to which the Company may become subject as a result of any claim by (i) any third party (other than the Company's independent public accountants) for services rendered or products sold to the Company or (ii) a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement or business combination agreement (a "***Target***"); provided, however, that such indemnification of the Company by the Sponsor shall apply only to the extent necessary to ensure that such claims by a third party for services rendered (other than the Company's independent public accountants) or products sold to the Company or a Target do not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (A) $10.00 per share of the Offering Shares or (B) such lesser amount per share of the Offering Shares held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and net of taxes payable (but without deduction for any excise or similar tax that may be due or payable), except as to any claims by a third party or Target that executed an agreement waiving claims against and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account whether or not such agreement is enforceable. In the event that any such executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against such third party, the Sponsor shall not be responsible for any liability as a result of any such third-party claims. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, such indemnification of the Company by the Sponsor shall not apply as to any claims under the Company's obligation to indemnify the Underwriters (as defined below) against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "***Securities Act***"). The Sponsor shall have the right to defend against any such claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Company if, within fifteen (15) days following written receipt of notice of the claim to the Sponsor, the Sponsor notifies the Company in writing that it shall undertake such defense.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. The Sponsor and each Insider hereby agrees and acknowledges that: (i) each of the Underwriters and the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by the Sponsor or by each of the Insiders of its respective obligations (as applicable) under paragraphs 1, 2 and 4, (ii) monetary damages may not be an adequate remedy for such breach and (iii) the non-breaching party shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of such breach.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. The Sponsor hereby agrees that it will not directly or indirectly, enter into any agreement or arrangement to, or actually sell or transfer any Acquired Securities (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), with such sale or transfer to occur prior to the closing of the Company's initial Business Combination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sponsor may transfer Acquired Securities to affiliates, members or partners of the Sponsor or their affiliates, or any employees of such affiliates, provided that in each case the transferee agrees in writing to be bound by the terms of this paragraph. The Company is hereby authorized to place appropriate legends and stop transfer instructions on its books and with its transfer agent to enforce the provisions of this paragraph.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. The Sponsor and each Insider has full right and power, without violating any agreement to which the Sponsor or the Insider is bound (including, without limitation, any non-competition or non-solicitation agreement with any employer or former employer), to enter into this Letter Agreement and, as applicable, to serve as an officer of the Company or as a director on the board of directors of the Company and each Insider hereby consents to being named in the Prospectus as an officer and/or director of the Company, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. As used herein, (i) "***Business Combination***" shall mean a merger, amalgamation, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar business combination, involving the Company and one or more businesses or entities; (ii) "***Founder Shares***" shall mean the 6,325,000 Class B Ordinary Shares acquired by the Sponsor pursuant to the Purchase Agreement; (iii) "***Public Shareholders***" shall mean the holders of Offering Shares other than the Sponsor and the Insiders; and (iv) "***Trust Account***" shall mean the trust fund into which a portion of the net proceeds of the Public Offering and the sale of the units in a private placement shall be deposited.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. This Letter Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, to the extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby. This Letter Agreement may not be changed, amended, modified or waived (other than to correct a typographical error) as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed by all parties hereto. Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that BTIG, LLC as representative of the underwriters of the initial public offering of the Company (the "***Underwriters***"), is a third-party beneficiary of paragraphs 1, 2 and 4 of this Letter Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. No party hereto may assign either this Letter Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties. Any purported assignment in violation of this paragraph 10 shall be void and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee. This Letter Agreement shall be binding on the Sponsor, each Insider and each of their respective successors, heirs and assigns and permitted transferees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. Other than as provided for in paragraph 9, nothing in this Letter Agreement shall be construed to confer upon, or give to, any person or corporation other than the parties hereto any right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Letter Agreement or of any covenant, condition, stipulation, promise or agreement hereof. Except for the third-party beneficiary rights conferred by paragraph 9, all covenants, conditions, stipulations, promises and agreements contained in this Letter Agreement shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties hereto and their successors, heirs, personal representatives and assigns.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. This Letter Agreement may be executed in any number of original or facsimile counterparts (delivered by email or other means of electronic transmission) and each of such counterparts shall for all purposes be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. The parties agree that this Letter Agreement may be executed and delivered by electronic means, including by PDF, facsimile, or via an electronic signature service (e.g., DocuSign), and that such execution and delivery shall have the same force and effect as an original handwritten signature. Each party agrees that it will not contest the validity or enforceability of this Letter Agreement solely because it has been executed by electronic means. The parties further agree that electronically stored copies of this Letter Agreement shall be deemed to be originals and admissible as evidence of the contents hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. This Letter Agreement shall be deemed severable, and the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision hereof shall not affect the validity or enforceability of this Letter Agreement or of any other term or provision hereof. Furthermore, in lieu of any such invalid or unenforceable term or provision, the parties hereto intend that there shall be added as a part of this Letter Agreement a provision as similar in terms to such invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible and be valid and enforceable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. This Letter 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. The parties hereto (i) all agree that any action, proceeding, claim or dispute arising out of, or relating in any way to, this Letter Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan, and irrevocably submit to such jurisdiction and venue, which jurisdiction and venue shall be exclusive and (ii) waive any objection to such exclusive jurisdiction and venue or that such courts represent an inconvenient forum..

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. Any notice, consent or request to be given in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Letter Agreement shall be in writing and shall be sent by express mail or similar private courier service, by certified mail (return receipt requested), by hand delivery or facsimile transmission.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. This Letter Agreement shall terminate on the liquidation of the Company; provided, that paragraph 3 of this Letter Agreement shall survive such liquidation.
