On January 26, 2026, Helix Acquisition Corp. III (the "<u>Company</u>") consummated its initial public offering (the "<u>IPO</u>") of 17,250,000 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the "<u>Class A Ordinary Shares</u>"), including the issuance of 2,250,000 Class A Ordinary Shares as a result of the underwriter's exercise in full of its over-allotment option. The Class A Ordinary Shares were sold at a price of $10.00 per share, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $172,500,000.

In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into the following agreements, forms of which were previously filed as exhibits to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-291993) for the IPO, originally filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>Commission</u>") on December 8, 2025 (as amended, the "<u>Registration Statement</u>"):

● An Underwriting Agreement, dated January 22, 2026, by and among the Company, Leerink Partners LLC and Oppenheimer & Co. Inc., a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

● A Letter Agreement, dated January 22, 2026 (" <u>Letter Agreement</u> "), among the Company, the Company's sponsor, Helix Holdings III LLC (the " <u>Sponsor</u> ") and each of the officers and directors of the Company, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

● An Investment Management Trust Agreement, dated January 22, 2026, between the Company and Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as trustee, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

● A Registration Rights Agreement, dated January 22, 2026, among the Company, the Sponsor and the Holders signatory thereto, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.3 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

● A Private Placement Shares Purchase Agreement, dated January 22, 2026 (the " <u>Private Placement Shares Purchase Agreement</u> "), between the Company and the Sponsor, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.4 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

● An Administrative Services and Indemnification Agreement, dated January 22, 2026, between the Company and the Sponsor, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.5 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

● Indemnity Agreements, each dated January 22, 2026 (each, an " <u>Indemnity Agreement</u> "), between the Company and each of its officers and directors, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 10.6.

The material terms of such agreements are fully described in the Company's final prospectus, dated January 22, 2026, as filed with the Commission on January 23, 2026 (the "<u>Prospectus</u>") and are incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.**

Simultaneously with the closing of the IPO, pursuant to the Private Placement Shares Purchase Agreement, the Company completed the private sale of 497,500 Class A Ordinary Shares (the "<u>Private Placement Shares</u>") at a purchase price of $10.00 per Private Placement Share, to the Sponsor, generating gross proceeds to the Company of $4,975,000. The Private Placement Shares are identical to the Class A Ordinary Shares sold in the IPO, except that, so long as they are held by the Sponsor and its permitted transferees: (i) they may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold until 30 days after the completion of a business combination and (ii) they are entitled to registration rights.

In addition, the Sponsor has agreed to waive its redemption rights with respect to the Private Placement Shares in connection with (i) the consummation of the Company's initial business combination, or (ii) a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Company's amended and restated memorandum and articles of association to modify the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to redeem 100% of the Class A Ordinary Shares sold in the IPO if the Company has not consummated a business combination within 24 months of the closing of the IPO (or such other time period pursuant to an amendment to the Amended Charter (as defined below)) or with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders' rights or pre-initial business combination activity.

**Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.**

On January 22, 2026, in connection with the IPO, Messrs. Mark C. McKenna and John Schmid (the "<u>Directors</u>") were appointed to the board of directors of the Company (the "<u>Board</u>"). The Directors are independent directors. Effective January 22, 2026, Messrs. McKenna and Schmid were also appointed to the Board's (i) Audit Committee, with Mr. Schmid serving as chair of the Audit Committee, (ii) Compensation Committee, with Mr. McKenna serving as chair of the Compensation Committee and (iii) Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, with Mr. Schmid serving as chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Following the appointment of the Directors, the Board is comprised of the following three classes: the term of office of the first class of directors, Class I, consisting of Mr. McKenna, will expire at the Company's first annual general meeting of shareholders; the term of office of the second class of directors, Class II, consisting of Mr. Schmid and will expire at the Company's second annual general meeting of shareholders; and the term of office of the third class of directors, Class III, consisting of Ms. Chen, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chairperson of the Board, will expire at the Company's third annual general meeting of shareholders.

In connection with their appointments to the Board, each Director entered into the Letter Agreement as well as an Indemnity Agreement with the Company. In addition, in December 2025, the Sponsor transferred 30,000 Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (the "<u>Class B Ordinary Shares</u>"), of the Company to each of Messrs. McKenna and Schmid for the same per-share price initially paid by the Sponsor.

Other than the foregoing, none of the Directors are party to any arrangement or understanding with any person pursuant to which they were appointed as directors, nor are they party to any transactions required to be disclosed under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K involving the Company.

The foregoing descriptions of the Letter Agreement and the form of indemnity agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entireties by reference to the Letter Agreement and form of indemnity agreement, copies of which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.6 hereto, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 5.03. Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year**

On January 22, 2026, in connection with the IPO, the Company filed its amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (the "<u>Amended Charter</u>") with the Cayman Islands General Registry, effective the same day. The terms of the Amended Charter are set forth in the Registration Statement and are incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the Amended Charter is attached as Exhibit 3.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

**Item 8.01. Other Events.**

A total of $172,500,000 comprised of the net proceeds from the IPO and the sale of the Private Placement Shares were placed in a U.S.-based trust account maintained by Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as trustee. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds in the trust account that may be released to the Company to pay its taxes and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses, the funds held in the trust account will not be released from the trust account until the earliest of (i) the completion of the Company's initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of the Class A Ordinary Shares sold in the IPO (the "public shares") if the Company is unable to complete its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, subject to applicable law or (iii) the redemption of any of the Company's public shares properly tendered in connection with a shareholder vote to amend the Amended Charter (A) to modify the substance or timing of its obligation to allow redemption in connection with the Company's initial business combination or to redeem 100% of the Company's public shares if it does not complete its initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to shareholders' rights or pre-business combination activity.

On January 22, 2026, the Company effected a share capitalization with respect to the Company's Class B Ordinary Shares of 718,750 shares thereof, resulting in the Company's initial stockholders holding an aggregate of 4,312,500 Class B Ordinary Shares.

Except as described in the Prospectus, the Private Placement Shares are identical to the Ordinary Shares sold in the Offering.

The Company has entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of January 22, 2026, with the Sponsor and the holders party thereto, in substantially the form filed as Exhibit 10.3 to the Registration Statement (the "**Registration Rights Agreement**"), pursuant to which the Company has granted certain registration rights in respect of the Ordinary Shares underlying the Founder Shares, the Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Placement Shares and the Ordinary Shares underlying the Private Placement Shares that may be issued upon conversion of working capital loans as described in the Prospectus.

The Company has caused to be duly executed and delivered a letter agreement, dated as of January 22, 2026 (the "**Insider Letters**"), by and among the Company, the Sponsor and each of the Company's officers, directors, director nominees and advisor, in the form filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Registration Statement.

The Company will enter into an Administrative Services and Indemnification Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, with the Sponsor, in substantially the form filed as Exhibit 10.8 to the Registration Statement (the "**Administrative Services Agreement**"), pursuant to which the Company will pay to the Sponsor an aggregate monthly fee of $6,458 per month for office space, utilities, administrative services and remote support services provided to members of the management team.

The Company represents and warrants to, and agrees with, the Underwriters as set forth below in this Section 1.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company has prepared and filed with the Commission the Registration Statement (file number 333-291993) on Form S-1, including the related Preliminary Prospectus, for registration under the Act of the Offering and sale of the Securities. Such Registration Statement, including any amendments, financial statements, exhibits, and schedules thereto filed prior to the Execution Time, has become effective. The Company has filed one or more amendments thereto, including the related Preliminary Prospectus, each of which has previously been furnished to the Underwriters. The Company will file with the Commission the Prospectus in accordance with Rule 424(b). As filed, such Prospectus shall contain all information required by the Act and, except to the extent the Underwriters shall agree in writing to a modification, shall be in all substantive respects in the form furnished to the Underwriters prior to the Execution Time or, to the extent not completed at the Execution Time, shall contain only such specific additional information and other changes (beyond that contained in the latest Preliminary Prospectus) as the Company has advised the Underwriters, prior to the Execution Time, will be included or made therein. The Company has complied to the Commission's satisfaction with all requests of the Commission for additional or supplemental information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) On the Effective Date, the Registration Statement did, and when the Prospectus is first filed in accordance with Rule 424(b) and on the Closing Date (as defined herein) and on any date on which Option Securities are purchased, if such date is not the Closing Date (each such date, a "**settlement date**"), the Prospectus (and any supplement thereto) will comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act; on the Effective Date and at the Execution Time, the Registration Statement did not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; as of the Applicable Time and on the Closing Date and any settlement date, any individual Written Testing-the-Waters Communication did not conflict with the information contained in the Registration Statement or the Statutory Prospectus, complied in all material respects with the Act, when considered together with the Statutory Prospectus, and did not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and on the date of any filing pursuant to Rule 424(b) and on the Closing Date and any settlement date, the Prospectus (together with any supplement thereto) will not include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to the information contained in or omitted from the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (or any supplement thereto) in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Underwriters specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (or any supplement thereto), it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriters consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Statutory Prospectus, as of the Applicable Time and on the Closing Date and any settlement date, did not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Company makes no representations or warranties as to the information contained in or omitted from the Statutory Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Underwriters specifically for use therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by or on behalf of the Underwriters consists of the information described as such in Section 8(b) hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Company has filed with the Commission a Form 8-A (file number 001-43069) providing for the registration under the Exchange Act of the Securities, which registration is currently effective on the date hereof. The Ordinary Shares have been authorized for listing, subject to official notice of issuance and evidence of satisfactory distribution, on The Nasdaq Global Market ("**Nasdaq**"), and the Company knows of no reason or set of facts that is likely to adversely affect such authorization.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Commission has not issued any order or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened to issue any order preventing or suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or the use of any Preliminary Prospectus, the Prospectus or any part thereof, and has not instituted or, to the Company's knowledge, threatened to institute any proceedings with respect to such an order.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) (i) At the time of filing the Registration Statement and (ii) as of the Execution Time (with such date being used as the determination date for purposes of this clause (ii)), the Company was not and is not an Ineligible Issuer (as defined in Rule 405).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The Company has not prepared, used or referred to, and will not, without the Underwriters' prior written consent, prepare, use or refer to, any free writing prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Prior to the later of (i) the expiration or termination of the option granted to the Underwriters in Section 2, (ii) the completion of the Underwriters' distribution of the Underwritten Securities and (iii) the expiration of 25 days after the date of the Prospectus, the Company has not distributed and will not distribute any offering material in connection with the Offering and sale of the Offered Securities other than the Registration Statement, the Statutory Prospectus, the Prospectus and any Testing-the-Waters Communication.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Company has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as an exempted company in good standing under the laws of the Cayman Islands with full corporate power and authority to own or lease, as the case may be, and to operate its properties and conduct its business as described in the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus and to enter into this Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Founder's Purchase Agreement, the Share Subscription Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement, the Insider Letters, and the Administrative Services Agreement and to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, and is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction that requires such qualification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) There is no franchise, contract or other document of a character required to be described in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or to be filed as an exhibit thereto, which is not described or filed as required (and the Statutory Prospectus contains in all material respects the same description of the foregoing matters contained in the Prospectus); and the statements in the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus under the headings "Principal Shareholders," "Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions" and "Description of Securities" insofar as such statements summarize legal matters, agreements, documents or proceedings discussed therein, are in all material respects accurate and fair summaries of such legal matters, agreements, documents or proceedings. There are no business relationships or related party transactions involving the Company or any other person required by the Act to be described in the Registration Statement or Prospectus that have not been described as required.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) The Company's authorized equity capitalization is as set forth in the Statutory Prospectus, the Prospectus and the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company (the "**Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association**"). The capital stock of the Company conforms in all material respects to the description thereof in the Statutory Prospectus, the Registration Statement and the Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(w) For a period of 60 days following the Effective Date, in the event any person or entity (regardless of any FINRA affiliation or association) is engaged to assist the Company in its search for a merger candidate or to provide any other merger and acquisition services, or has provided or will provide any investment banking, financial, advisory and/or consulting services to the Company, the Company agrees that it shall promptly provide to FINRA (via a FINRA submission), and to the Underwriters and their counsel, a notification prior to entering into the agreement or transaction relating to a potential Business Combination including: (i) the identity of the person or entity providing any such services; (ii) complete details of all such services and copies of all agreements governing such services prior to entering into the agreement or transaction; and (iii) justification as to why the person or entity providing the merger and acquisition services should not be considered a Member with respect to the Offering. The Company also agrees that proper disclosure of such arrangement or potential arrangement will be made in the tender offer materials or proxy statement, as applicable, which the Company may file in connection with the Business Combination for purposes of offering redemption of shares held by its shareholders or for soliciting shareholder approval, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) The Company shall advise FINRA, the Underwriters and its counsel, if it is aware that any 10% or greater shareholder of the Company becomes an affiliate or associated person of a Member participating in the distribution of the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(y) To the Company's knowledge, none of the Sponsor, officers, directors or director nominees of the Company is subject to a non-competition agreement or non-solicitation agreement with any employer or prior employer that could materially affect its, his or her ability to be and act in the capacity of shareholder, officer or director of the Company, as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(z) The Company shall cause the proceeds of the Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Shares to be held in the Trust Account to be invested only in United States government treasury bills with a maturity of 185 days or less or in money market funds meeting certain conditions under Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act as set forth in the Trust Agreement and disclosed in the Registration Statement, the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus. The Company will otherwise conduct its business in a manner so that it will not become subject to the Investment Company Act. Furthermore, once the Company consummates a Business Combination, it will not be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(aa) The Company will seek to have all vendors, service providers (other than the Company's independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses and other entities with which it does business execute agreements with it waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of the Public Shareholders. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account, the Company's management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to the Company it and will only enter into an agreement with a third party that has not executed a wavier if the Company's management believes that such third party's engagement would be significantly more beneficial to the Company than any alternative.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(bb) The Company agrees that neither it, nor any successor or subsidiary of the Company, will consummate any public or private equity or debt financing prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, unless all investors in such financing expressly waive, in writing, any rights in or claims against the Trust Account with respect to such financing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(cc) During the period prior to the Company's initial Business Combination or Liquidation, the Company may instruct the trustee under the Trust Agreement to release interest from the Trust Account, the amounts necessary to pay its taxes. Otherwise, all funds held in the Trust Account (including any interest income earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account (net of taxes payable thereon)) will remain in the Trust Account until the earlier of the consummation of the Company's initial Business Combination or the Liquidation; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that in the event of the Liquidation, up to $100,000 of interest income may be released to the Company if the proceeds of the Offering held outside of the Trust Account are not sufficient to cover the costs and expenses associated with implementing the Company's plan of dissolution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(dd) The Company will reserve and keep available that maximum number of its authorized but unissued securities that are issuable upon the conversion of the Founder Shares.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ee) Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination or the Liquidation, the Company shall not issue any Ordinary Shares, Private Placement Shares or any options or other securities convertible into Ordinary Shares, or any preferred shares, in each case, that participate in any manner in the Trust Account or that vote as a class with the Ordinary Shares on a Business Combination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ff) Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination or the Liquidation, the Company's audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments made to the Sponsor, to the Company's officers or directors, or to the Company's or any of such other persons' respective affiliates.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(gg) The Company will comply with the Act and the Exchange Act so as to permit the completion of the distribution of the Underwritten Securities as contemplated by this Agreement, the Registration Statement, the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will, during the period when a prospectus relating to the Underwritten Securities is required by the Act to be delivered (whether physically or through compliance with Rule 172 under the Act or any similar rule), file on a timely basis with the Commission and Nasdaq all reports and documents required to be filed under the Exchange Act. Additionally, the Company shall report the use of proceeds from the issuance of the Underwritten Securities as may be required under Rule 463 under the Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(hh) The Company agrees that it shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prevent the Company from becoming subject to Rule 419 prior to the consummation of any Business Combination, including, but not limited to, using commercially reasonable efforts to prevent any of the Company's outstanding securities from being deemed to be a "penny stock" as defined in Rule 3a51-1 under the Exchange Act during such period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) To the extent required by Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, the Company shall maintain "disclosure controls and procedures" (as defined under Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) and a system of internal accounting controls sufficient to provide reasonable assurances that (i) transactions are executed in accordance with management's general or specific authorization, (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary in order to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP and to maintain accountability for assets, (iii) access to assets is permitted only in accordance with management's general or specific authorization, and (iv) the recorded accountability for assets is compared with existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(jj) The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to effect and, for a period commencing on the Effective Date and ending five (5) years from the date of the consummation of the Business Combination or until such earlier time at which Liquidation occurs, maintain the listing of the Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange acceptable to the Underwriters.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(kk) As soon as legally required to do so, the Company and its directors and officers, in their capacities as such, shall take all actions necessary to comply with any applicable provisions of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, including Section 402 related to loans and Sections 302 and 906 related to certifications, and to comply with the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ll) The Company shall not take any action or omit to take any action that would cause the Company to be in breach or violation of its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(mm) The Company covenants and agrees, that prior to its initial Business Combination it will not seek to amend or modify its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association, except as set forth therein.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(nn) The Company shall not amend, modify or otherwise change the Trust Agreement or any Insider Letter without the prior written consent of each Underwriter, which will not be unreasonably delayed, conditioned or withheld. Furthermore, the Trust Agreement shall provide that the Trustee is required to obtain a joint written instruction signed by both the Company and the Underwriters with respect to the transfer of the funds held in the Trust Account from the Trust Account, prior to commencing any liquidation of the assets of the Trust Account in connection with the consummation of any Business Combination, and such provision of the Trust Agreement shall not be permitted to be amended without the prior written consent of the Underwriters.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(oo) The Company shall seek to have all vendors, service providers (other than independent accountants), prospective target businesses, lenders or other entities with which it does business enter into agreements waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of the Public Shareholders. The Company may forego obtaining such waivers only if the Company shall have received the approval of its Chief Executive Officer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(pp) The Company may consummate the initial Business Combination and conduct redemptions of Ordinary Shares for cash upon consummation of such Business Combination without a shareholder vote pursuant to Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E under the Exchange Act, including the filing of tender offer documents with the Commission. Such tender offer documents will contain substantially the same financial and other information about the initial Business Combination and the redemption rights as is required under the Commission's proxy rules and will provide each shareholder of the Company with the opportunity prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination to redeem the Ordinary Shares held by such shareholder for an amount of cash equal to (A) the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, representing (x) the proceeds held in the Trust Account from the Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Shares and (y) any interest income earned on the funds held in the Trust Account not previously released to pay taxes, divided by (B) the total number of Ordinary Shares sold in the Offering (the "**Public Shares**") then outstanding. If, however, a shareholder vote is required by law or stock exchange listing requirement in connection with the initial Business Combination or the Company decides to hold a shareholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will submit such Business Combination to the Company's shareholders for their approval ("**Business Combination Vote**"). With respect to the initial Business Combination Vote, if any, the Sponsor, and its officers and directors, have agreed to vote all of their Founder Shares and any other Ordinary Shares purchased during or after the Offering in favor of the Company's initial Business Combination. If the Company seeks shareholder approval of the initial Business Combination, the Company will offer to each Public Shareholder holding Ordinary Shares the right to have its shares redeemed in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules of the Commission at a per share redemption price (the "**Redemption Price**") equal to (I) the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account as of two business days prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, representing (1) the proceeds held in the Trust Account from the Offering and the sale of the Private Placement Shares and (2) any interest income earned on the funds held in the Trust Account not previously released to pay taxes, divided by (II) the total number of Public Shares then outstanding. If the Company seeks shareholder approval of the initial Business Combination, the Company may proceed with such Business Combination only if a majority of the outstanding Ordinary Shares voted by the shareholders at a duly held shareholders meeting are voted to approve such Business Combination. If, after seeking and receiving such shareholder approval, the Company elects to so proceed, it will redeem shares, at the Redemption Price, from those Public Shareholders who affirmatively requested such redemption. Only Public Shareholders holding Ordinary Shares who properly exercise their redemption rights, in accordance with the applicable tender offer or proxy materials related to such Business Combination and the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company, shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust Account in connection with an initial Business Combination, and the Company shall pay no distributions with respect to any other holders of shares of capital stock of the Company in connection therewith. In the event that the Company does not effect a Business Combination by twenty-four (24) months, the Company will cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and, as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public 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 (less taxes paid or payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will constitute full and complete payment for such Public Shares and completely extinguish Public Shareholders' rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidation or other distributions, if any, subject to the Company's obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and subject to the other requirements of applicable law. Only Public Shareholders holding Ordinary Shares included in the Securities will be entitled to receive such redemption amounts and the Company shall pay no such redemption amounts or any distributions in liquidation with respect to any other shares of the Company. The Sponsor and the Company's officers and directors have agreed that they will not propose any amendment to the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association that would affect the substance or timing of the Company's obligation to redeem 100% of the outstanding Public Shares if the Company has not consummated a Business Combination within twenty-four (24) months from the closing of the Offering unless the Company offers to redeem the Public Shares in connection with such amendment, as described in the Statutory Prospectus and Prospectus.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(qq) In the event that the Company desires or is required by an applicable law or regulation to cause an announcement ("**Business Combination Announcement**") to be placed in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times or any other news or media publication or outlet or to be made via a public filing with the Commission announcing the consummation of the Business Combination that indicates that the Underwriters were the underwriter in the Offering, the Company shall supply the Underwriters with a draft of the Business Combination Announcement and provide the Underwriters with a reasonable advance opportunity to comment thereon, subject to the agreement of the Underwriters to keep confidential such draft announcement in accordance with each Underwriter's standard policies regarding confidential information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(rr) Upon consummation of the Company's initial Business Combination, the Company agrees that it will cause the Trustee to pay the Deferred Discount (as defined below) directly from the Trust Account to the Underwriter, in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement. The Underwriters shall have no claim to payment of any interest earned on the portion of the proceeds held in the Trust Account representing the Deferred Discount and shall not be entitled to payment of the Deferred Discount if the Company does not consummate an initial Business Combination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ss) The Company will endeavor in good faith, and in cooperation with the Underwriters, to qualify the Securities for offering and sale under the securities laws of such jurisdictions as the Underwriters may reasonably designate; <u>provided</u> that no such qualification shall be required in any jurisdiction where, as a result thereof, the Company would be subject to service of general process or to taxation as a foreign corporation doing business in such jurisdiction. Until the earliest of (i) the date on which the Underwriters shall have ceased to engage in market-making activities in respect of the Securities, (ii) the date on which the Securities are listed on the Nasdaq (or any successor thereto), (iii) a going private transaction after the completion of a Business Combination, and (iv) the date of the liquidation of the Company, in each jurisdiction where such qualification shall be effected, the Company will, unless the Underwriters agree that such action is not at the time necessary or advisable, use all reasonable efforts to file and make such statements or reports at such times as are or may be required to qualify the Securities for offering and sale under the securities laws of such jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(tt) If at any time following the distribution of any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, there occurred or occurs an event or development as a result of which such Written Testing-the-Waters Communication included or would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made at such time, not misleading, the Company will promptly (i) notify the Underwriters so that use of the Written Testing-the-Waters Communication may cease until it is amended or supplemented; (ii) amend or supplement, at its own expense, such Written Testing-the-Waters Communication to eliminate or correct such untrue statement or omission; and (iii) supply any amendment or supplement to the Underwriters in such quantities as may be reasonably requested.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(uu) The Company will promptly notify the Underwriters if the Company ceases to be an Emerging Growth Company at any time prior to the later of completion of the distribution of the Securities within the meaning of the Act and completion of the 180-day restricted period referred to in Section ‎5(h) hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vv) Upon the earlier to occur of the expiration or termination of the Underwriters' over-allotment option, the Company shall cancel or otherwise effect the forfeiture of Founder Shares from the Sponsor in an aggregate amount equal to the number of Founder Shares determined by multiplying (a) 562,500 by (b) a fraction, (i) the numerator of which is 2,250,000 minus the number of Option Securities purchased by the Underwriters upon the exercise of their over-allotment option, and (ii) the denominator of which is 2,250,000. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full, the Company shall not cancel or otherwise effect the forfeiture of the Founder Shares pursuant to this subsection.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ww) The Company hereby agrees that, until the consummation of a Business Combination, it shall not issue any Class A Ordinary Shares or any options or other securities convertible into Class A Ordinary Shares, or any preferred shares or other securities of the Company which participate in any manner in the Trust Account or which vote as a class with the Class A Ordinary Shares on a Business Combination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(xx) The Company hereby agrees that, until the consummation of a Business Combination, it shall not issue any Ordinary Shares or any options or other securities convertible into Securities, or any preferred shares or other securities of the Company which participate in any manner in the Trust Account or which vote as a class with the Ordinary Shares on a Business Combination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(yy) The Company hereby agrees that it will use its reasonable best efforts prior to commencing its due diligence investigation of any prospective Target Business or obtaining the services of any vendor to have such Target Business and/or vendor acknowledge in writing whether through a letter of intent, memorandum of understanding or other similar document (and subsequently acknowledges the same in any definitive document replacing any of the foregoing), that (a) it has read the Prospectus and understands that the Company has established the Trust Account, initially in an amount of $150,000,000 (without giving effect to any exercise of the Underwriters' over-allotment option) for the benefit of the Public Shareholders and that, except for a portion of the interest earned on the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Company may disburse monies from the Trust Account only (i) to the Public Shareholders in the event they elect to redeem Ordinary Shares contained in the Securities in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination, (ii) to the Public Shareholders if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association and the Prospectus, or (iii) to the Company after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination and (b) for and in consideration of the Company (iv) agreeing to evaluate such Target Business for purposes of consummating a Business Combination with it or (v) agreeing to engage the services of the vendor, as the case may be, such Target Business or vendor agrees that it does not have any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies in the Trust Account ("**Claim**") and waives any Claim it may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with the Company and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever. The Company may forego obtaining such waivers only if the Company shall have received the approval of its Chief Executive Officer and the approving vote of at least a majority of the Company's board of directors (the "**Board**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(zz) The Company shall not take any action or omit to take any action which would cause a breach of any of the Insider Letters and will not allow any amendments to, or waivers of, such Insider Letters without the prior written consent of the Underwriters, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(aaa) The Company shall provide to the Underwriters or their counsel (if so instructed by the Underwriters) with 10 copies of all tender offer documents or proxy information and all related material filed with the Commission in connection with a Business Combination concurrently with such filing with the Commission. Documents filed with the Commission pursuant to its EDGAR system shall be deemed to have been provided to the Representative pursuant to this Section 5((aaa)). In addition, the Company shall furnish any other state in which its initial public offering was registered, such information as may be requested by such state.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(bbb) The Company agrees that the Target Business that it acquires must have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account at the time of signing the definitive agreement for the Business Combination with such Target Business (excluding taxes payable and the Deferred Discount). The fair market value of such business must be determined by the Board based upon standards generally accepted by the financial community, such as actual and potential sales, earnings, cash flow and book value. If the Board is not able to independently determine that the target business meets such fair market value requirement, the Company will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria. The Company is not required to obtain an opinion as to the fair market value if the Board independently determines that the Target Business does have sufficient fair market value.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Subsequent to the Execution Time or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof), the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto), there shall not have been any change specified in the letter or letters referred to in Section ‎6(f) or any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in or affecting the earnings, business, management, properties, assets, rights, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company, whether or not arising from transactions in the ordinary course of business, except as set forth in or contemplated in the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto) the effect of which, in any case referred to in clause ‎(i) or ‎(ii) above, is, in the sole judgment of the Underwriters, so material and adverse as to make it impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof), the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Prior to the Closing Date or settlement date (as applicable), the Company shall have furnished to the Underwriters such further information, certificates and documents as the Underwriters may reasonably request.

If any of the conditions specified in this Section ‎6 shall not have been fulfilled when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Underwriters and counsel for the Underwriters, this Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Underwriters. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing.

7. <u>REIMBURSEMENT OF UNDERWRITERS' EXPENSES.</u> 

If the sale of the Securities provided for herein is not consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth in Section ‎6 hereof is not satisfied, because of any termination pursuant to Section ‎10 hereof (other than clauses (ii), (iii) or (vi) thereof) or because of any refusal, inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or comply with any provision hereof other than by reason of a default by the Underwriters, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters severally on demand for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel, but, in no event, shall expenses include taxes imposed on the net income of an Underwriters) that shall have been incurred by them in connection with the proposed purchase and sale of the Securities.

8. <u>INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION.</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, the directors, officers, employees and agents of the Underwriters, each person who controls the Underwriters within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each affiliate, director, officer, employee, or agent of the Underwriters against any and all losses, claims, damages, expenses or liabilities, joint or several, to which they or any of them may become subject under the Act, the Exchange Act or other Federal or state statutory law or regulation, at common law or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of the Securities as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, the Business Combination securities disclosure documents, any Preliminary Prospectus, the Statutory Prospectus, the Prospectus or the Free Writing Prospectus, any "**road show**" as defined in Rule 433(h) of the Act or any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, any application or other document or written communication executed by the Company or based upon written information furnished by the Company in any jurisdiction in order to qualify the Securities under the securities laws thereof or filed with the Commission, any foreign or state securities commission or agency, Nasdaq, The New York Stock Exchange, Nasdaq Global Select Market any other securities exchange or the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board (the "**OTCBB**"); or any post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement or Prospectus or new Registration Statement or Prospectus filed by the Company with the Commission, any state securities commission or agency, OTCBB or any securities exchange, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and agrees to reimburse each such indemnified party, as incurred, for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action and against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that any such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon any such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made therein in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Underwriters specifically for inclusion therein, it being understood and agreed that the only such information furnished by the Underwriters consists of the information described in the last sentence of Section ‎8(b) hereof. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Company may otherwise have.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Underwriters agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to the Underwriters, but only with reference to written information relating to the Underwriters furnished to the Company by or on behalf of such Underwriters specifically for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability that the Underwriters may otherwise have. The Company acknowledges that the statements set forth under the heading "**Underwriting**," (x) the name of each Underwriter and its role and participation in the sale of the Securities, (y) the sentences related to concessions and reallowances and the Underwriters' intention not to make sales to discretionary accounts, and (z) the paragraphs related to stabilization, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids, in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus constitute the only information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Underwriters for inclusion in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 8 of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under this Section ‎8, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the failure so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from liability under paragraph (a) or (b) above unless and to the extent it did not otherwise learn of such action and such failure results in the forfeiture by the indemnifying party of material rights and defenses and will not, in any event, relieve the indemnifying party from any obligations to any indemnified party other than the indemnification obligation provided in paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party shall be entitled to appoint counsel of the indemnifying party's choice at the indemnifying party's expense to represent the indemnified party in any action for which indemnification is sought (in which case the indemnifying party shall not thereafter be responsible for the fees and expenses of any separate counsel retained by the indemnified party or parties except as set forth below); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that such counsel shall be satisfactory to the indemnified party. Notwithstanding the indemnifying party's election to appoint counsel to represent the indemnified party in an action, the indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate counsel (including local counsel), and the indemnifying party shall bear the reasonable fees, costs and expenses of such separate counsel if (i) the use of counsel chosen by the indemnifying party to represent the indemnified party would present such counsel with a conflict of interest, (ii) the actual or potential defendants in, or targets of, any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other indemnified parties that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, (iii) the indemnifying party shall not have employed counsel satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party within a reasonable time after notice of the institution of such action or (iv) the indemnifying party shall authorize the indemnified party to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party. An indemnifying party will not, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), settle or compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit or proceeding in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties to such claim or action) unless (i) such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out of such claim, action, suit or proceeding and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. If at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 45 days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) In the event that the indemnity provided in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party for any reason, the Company and the Underwriters severally agree to contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending the same) (collectively "**Losses**") to which the Company and the Underwriters may be subject in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the Offering; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that in no case shall the Underwriters (except as may be provided in any other agreement with the Underwriters relating to the Offering) be responsible for any amount in excess of the underwriting discount or commission applicable to the Securities purchased by such Underwriters hereunder. If the allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is unavailable for any reason, the Company and the Underwriters severally shall contribute in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Benefits received by the Company shall be deemed to be equal to the total net proceeds from the Offering (before deducting expenses) received by it, and benefits received by the Underwriters shall be deemed to be equal to the total underwriting discounts and commissions, in each case as set forth on the cover page of the Prospectus. Relative fault shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or any alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information provided by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement or omission. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (d), no person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section ‎8, each person who controls the Underwriters within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and each director, officer, employee and agent of the Underwriters shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriters, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of this paragraph (d).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In any proceeding relating to the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus, the Statutory Prospectus, any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, the Prospectus or any supplement or amendment thereto, each party against whom contribution may be sought under this Section ‎8 hereby consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan and the courts of the State of New York located in the City and County of New York, Borough of Manhattan (collectively, the "**Specified Courts**"), agrees that process issuing from such courts may be served upon it by any other contributing party and consents to the service of such process and agrees that any other contributing party may join it as an additional defendant in any such proceeding in which such other contributing party is a party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses for which an indemnified party is entitled to indemnification or contribution under this Section ‎8 shall be paid by the indemnifying party to the indemnified party as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are incurred. The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section ‎8 and the representations and warranties of the Company set forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless of (i) any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters, its directors or officers or any person controlling the Underwriters, the Company, its directors or officers or any persons controlling the Company, (ii) acceptance of any Securities and payment therefor hereunder, and (iii) any termination of this Agreement. A successor to the Underwriters, its directors or officers or any person controlling the Underwriters, or to the Company, its directors or officers, or any person controlling the Company, shall be entitled to the benefits of the indemnity, contribution and reimbursement agreements contained in this Section ‎8.

9. <u>DEFAULT BY THE UNDERWRITERS.</u> 

If the Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriters, such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement. If within one Business Day after such default relating to more than 10% of the Underwritten Securities the Underwriters do not arrange for the purchase of such Underwritten Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of two Business Days within which to procure another party or parties reasonably satisfactory to the Underwriters to purchase said Underwritten Securities. In the event that neither the Underwriters nor the Company purchase or arrange for the purchase of all of the Underwritten Securities to which a default relates as provided in this Section ‎9, this Agreement will terminate without liability to any non-defaulting party. In the event of a default by the Underwriters as set forth in this Section 9, the Closing Date shall be postponed for such period, not exceeding five Business Days, in order that the required changes in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall relieve the defaulting Underwriter of its liability, if any, to the Company for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.

10. <u>TERMINATION.</u> 

This Agreement shall be subject to termination in the absolute discretion of the Underwriters, by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such delivery and payment any of the following has occurred: (i) trading in the Company's Ordinary Shares shall have been suspended by the Commission, or trading in securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq shall have been suspended or limited or minimum prices shall have been established on such exchange or trading market, (ii) a banking moratorium shall have been declared either by Federal or New York State authorities, (iii) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, declaration by the United States of a national emergency or war, or other national or international calamity or crisis (including, without limitation, an act of terrorism) or change in economic or political conditions the effect of which on financial markets is such as to make it, in the sole judgment of the Underwriters, impractical or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Statutory Prospectus or the Prospectus (exclusive of any supplement thereto), (iv) since the respective dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement, the Statutory Prospectus and the Prospectus, any material adverse change or any development involving a prospective material adverse change in or affecting the earnings, business, management, properties, assets, rights, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of the Company, whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, (v) the enactment, publication, decree or other promulgation of any statute, regulation, rule or order of any court or other governmental authority which in the Underwriters' opinion materially and adversely affects or may materially and adversely affect the business or operations of the Company, or (vi) the taking of any action by any governmental body or agency in respect of its monetary or fiscal affairs which in each Underwriter's opinion has a material adverse effect on the securities markets in the United States.

11. <u>REPRESENTATIONS AND INDEMNITIES TO SURVIVE.</u> 

The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities and other statements of the Company or its officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Underwriters or the Company or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents or controlling persons referred to in Section ‎8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities. The provisions of Sections ‎7 and ‎8 hereof shall survive the termination or cancellation of this Agreement.

may determine before the issue of such Shares. With respect to redeeming or repurchasing the Shares:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Members who hold Public Shares are entitled to request the redemption of such Shares in the circumstances
described in the Business Combination Article hereof;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Class B Shares held by the Sponsor shall be surrendered by the Sponsor for no consideration on a pro-rata

10 Variation of Rights of Shares

10.1 Subject to Article 3.1, if at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes
of Shares, all or any of the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class)
may, whether or not the Company is being wound up, be varied without the consent of the holders of the issued Shares of that class where
such variation is considered by the Directors not to have a material adverse effect upon such rights; otherwise, any such variation shall
be made only with the consent in writing of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the issued Shares of that class (other than with
respect to a waiver of the provisions of the Class B Share Conversion Article hereof, which as stated therein shall only require the consent
in writing of the holders of a majority of the issued Shares of that class), or with the approval of a resolution passed by a majority
of not less than two-thirds of the votes cast at a separate meeting of the holders of the Shares of that class. For the avoidance of doubt,
the Directors reserve the right, notwithstanding that any such variation may not have a material adverse effect, to obtain consent from
the holders of Shares of the relevant class. To any such meeting all the provisions of the Articles relating to general meetings shall
apply *mutatis mutandis*, except that the necessary quorum shall be one person holding or representing by proxy at least one-third
of the issued Shares of the class and that any holder of Shares of the class present in person or by proxy may demand a poll.

10.2 For the purposes of a separate class meeting, the Directors may treat two or more or all the classes of
Shares as forming one class of Shares if the Directors consider that such class of Shares would be affected in the same way by the proposals
under consideration, but in any other case shall treat them as separate classes of Shares.

10.3 The rights conferred upon the holders of the Shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights
shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class, be deemed to be varied:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) by the creation or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu therewith or Shares issued with preferred
or other rights;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) where the constitutional documents of the Company are amended or new constitutional documents of the Company
are adopted, in each case, as a result of the Company registering by way of continuation as a body corporate under the laws of any jurisdiction
outside the Cayman Islands; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) by the conversion of any Class B Shares pursuant to the Class B Ordinary Share Conversion Article.

11 Commission on Sale of Shares

The Company may, in so far as the Statute permits, pay a commission to any person in consideration of that person subscribing or agreeing to subscribe (whether absolutely or conditionally) or procuring or agreeing to procure subscriptions (whether absolutely or conditionally) for any Shares. Such commissions may be satisfied by the payment of cash and/or the issue of fully or partly paid-up Shares. The Company may also on any issue of Shares pay such brokerage as may be lawful.

12 Non Recognition of Trusts

The Company shall not be bound by or compelled to recognise in any way (even when notified) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any Share, or (except only as is otherwise provided by the Articles or the Statute) any other rights in respect of any Share other than an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the holder.

13 Lien on Shares

13.1 The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on all Shares (whether fully paid-up or not) registered
in the name of a Member (whether solely or jointly with others) for all debts, liabilities or engagements to or with the Company (whether
presently payable or not) by such Member or their estate, either alone or jointly with any other person, whether a Member or not, but
the Directors may at any time declare any Share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this Article. The registration of
a transfer of any such Share shall operate as a waiver of the Company's lien thereon. The Company's lien on a Share shall also extend
to any amount payable in respect of that Share.

13.2 The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any Shares on which the Company has a
lien, if a sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable, and is not paid within 14 clear days after notice has been received
or deemed to have been received by the holder of the Shares, or to the person entitled to it in consequence of the death or bankruptcy
of the holder, demanding payment and stating that if the notice is not complied with the Shares may be sold.

13.3 To give effect to any such sale the Directors may authorise any person to execute an instrument of transfer
of the Shares sold to, or in accordance with the directions of, the purchaser. The purchaser or their nominee shall be registered as the
holder of the Shares comprised in any such transfer, and they shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, nor
shall their title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the sale or the exercise of the Company's power of sale
under the Articles.

13.4 The net proceeds of such sale after payment of costs, shall be applied in payment of such part of the
amount in respect of which the lien exists as is presently payable and any balance shall (subject to a like lien for sums not presently
payable as existed upon the Shares before the sale) be paid to the person entitled to the Shares at the date of the sale.

14 Call on Shares

14.1 Subject to the terms of the allotment and issue of any Shares, the Directors may make calls upon the Members
in respect of any monies unpaid on their Shares (whether in respect of par value or premium), and each Member shall (subject to receiving
at least 14 clear days' notice specifying the time or times of payment) pay to the Company at the time or times so specified the amount
called on the Shares. A call may be revoked or postponed, in whole or in part, as the Directors may determine. A call may be required
to be paid by instalments. A person upon whom a call is made shall remain liable for calls made upon them notwithstanding the subsequent
transfer of the Shares in respect of which the call was made.

14.2 A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising
such call was passed.

14.3 The joint holders of a Share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof.

14.4 If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable, the person from whom it is due shall pay
interest on the amount unpaid from the day it became due and payable until it is paid at such rate as the Directors may determine (and
in addition all expenses that have been incurred by the Company by reason of such non-payment), but the Directors may waive payment of
the interest or expenses wholly or in part.

14.5 An amount payable in respect of a Share on issue or allotment or at any fixed date, whether on account
of the par value of the Share or premium or otherwise, shall be deemed to be a call and if it is not paid all the provisions of the Articles
shall apply as if that amount had become due and payable by virtue of a call.

14.6 The Directors may issue Shares with different terms as to the amount and times of payment of calls, or
the interest to be paid.

14.7 The Directors may, if they think fit, receive an amount from any Member willing to advance all or any
part of the monies uncalled and unpaid upon any Shares held by that Member, and may (until the amount would otherwise become payable)
pay interest at such rate as may be agreed upon between the Directors and the Member paying such amount in advance.

14.8 No such amount paid in advance of calls shall entitle the Member paying such amount to any portion of
a Dividend or other distribution payable in respect of any period prior to the date upon which such amount would, but for such payment,
become payable.

15 Forfeiture of Shares

15.1 If a call or instalment of a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable the Directors may
give to the person from whom it is due not less than 14 clear days' notice requiring payment of the amount unpaid together with any interest
which may have accrued and any expenses incurred by the Company by reason of such non-payment. The notice shall specify where payment
is to be made and shall state that if the notice is not complied with the Shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable
to be forfeited.

15.2 If the notice is not complied with, any Share in respect of which it was given may, before the payment
required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors. Such forfeiture shall include all Dividends, other
distributions or other monies payable in respect of the forfeited Share and not paid before the forfeiture.

15.3 A forfeited Share may be sold, re-allotted or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as
the Directors think fit and at any time before a sale, re-allotment or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the
Directors think fit. Where for the purposes of its disposal a forfeited Share is to be transferred to any person the Directors may authorise
some person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Share in favour of that person.

15.4 A person any of whose Shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Member in respect of them and shall
surrender to the Company for cancellation the certificate for the Shares forfeited and shall remain liable to pay to the Company all monies
which at the date of forfeiture were payable by that person to the Company in respect of those Shares together with interest at such rate
as the Directors may determine, but that person's liability shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of
all monies due and payable by them in respect of those Shares.

15.5 A certificate in writing under the hand of one Director or Officer that a Share has been forfeited on
a specified date shall be conclusive evidence of the facts stated in it as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the Share. The
certificate shall (subject to the execution of an instrument of transfer) constitute a good title to the Share and the person to whom
the Share is sold or otherwise disposed of shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall their
title to the Share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of
the Share.

15.6 The provisions of the Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non payment of any sum which,
by the terms of issue of a Share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the par value of the Share or by way of premium
as if it had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

16 Transmission of Shares

16.1 If a Member dies, the survivor or survivors (where they were a joint holder), or their legal personal
representatives (where they were a sole holder), shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to the deceased
Member's Shares. The estate of a deceased Member is not thereby released from any liability in respect of any Share, for which the Member
was a joint or sole holder.

16.2 Any person becoming entitled to a Share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution
of a Member (or in any other way than by transfer) may, upon such evidence being produced as may be required by the Directors, elect,
by a notice in writing sent by that person to the Company, either to become the holder of such Share or to have some person nominated
by them registered as the holder of such Share. If they elect to have another person registered as the holder of such Share they shall
sign an instrument of transfer of that Share to that person. The Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend
registration as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before their death or bankruptcy or
liquidation or dissolution, as the case may be.

16.3 A person becoming entitled to a Share by reason of the death or bankruptcy or liquidation or dissolution
of a Member (or in any other case than by transfer) shall be entitled to the same Dividends, other distributions and other advantages
to which they would be entitled if they were the holder of such Share. However, they shall not, before becoming a Member in respect of
a Share, be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to general meetings of the Company and
the Directors may at any time give notice requiring any such person to elect either to be registered or to have some person nominated
by them registered as the holder of the Share (but the Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration
as they would have had in the case of a transfer of the Share by the relevant Member before their death or bankruptcy or liquidation or
dissolution or any other case than by transfer, as the case may be). If the notice is not complied with within 90 days of being received
or deemed to be received (as determined pursuant to the Articles), the Directors may thereafter withhold payment of all Dividends, other
distributions, bonuses or other monies payable in respect of the Share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.

17 Class B Ordinary Share Conversion

17.1 The rights attaching to the Class A Shares and Class B Shares shall rank *pari passu* in all respects,
and the Class A Shares and Class B Shares shall vote together as a single class on all matters (subject to the Variation of Rights of
Shares Article and the Appointment and Removal of Directors Article hereof) with the exception that the holder of a Class B Share shall
have the conversion rights referred to in this Article.

17.2 Class B Shares shall automatically convert into Class A Shares on a one-for-one basis (the "**Initial Conversion Ratio** "):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) at any time and from time to time at the option of the holders thereof; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination.

17.3 Notwithstanding the Initial Conversion Ratio, in the case that additional Class A Shares or any other
Equity-linked Securities, are issued, or deemed issued, by the Company in excess of the amounts offered in the IPO and in connection with
the consummation of a Business Combination, all Class B Shares in issue shall automatically convert into Class A Shares in connection
with the consummation of a Business Combination at a ratio for which the Class B Shares shall convert into Class A Shares will be adjusted
(unless the holders of a majority of the Class B Shares in issue agree to waive such anti-dilution adjustment with respect to any such
issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of Class A Shares issuable upon conversion of all Class B Shares will equal, on an as-converted
basis, in the aggregate, 20% of the sum of all Class A Shares and Class B Shares in issue upon completion of the IPO plus all Class A
Shares and Equity-linked Securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination, excluding any Shares or Equity-linked
Securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination and any private placement Shares issued to the Sponsor or
its Affiliates upon conversion of working capital loans made to the Company.

17.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the foregoing adjustment to the Initial Conversion
Ratio may be waived as to any particular issuance or deemed issuance of additional Class A Shares or Equity-linked Securities by
the written consent or agreement of holders of a majority of the Class B Shares then in issue consenting or agreeing separately as a separate
class in the manner provided in the Variation of Rights of Shares Article hereof.

17.5 The foregoing conversion ratio shall also be adjusted to account for any subdivision (by share subdivision,
exchange, capitalisation, rights issue, reclassification, recapitalisation or otherwise) or combination (by share consolidation, exchange,
reclassification, recapitalisation or otherwise) or similar reclassification or recapitalisation of the Class A Shares in issue into a
greater or lesser number of shares occurring after the original filing of the Articles without a proportionate and corresponding subdivision,
combination or similar reclassification or recapitalisation of the Class B Shares in issue.

17.6 Each Class B Share shall convert into its pro rata number of Class A Shares pursuant to this Article.
The pro rata share for each holder of Class B Shares will be determined as follows: each Class B Share shall convert into such number
of Class A Shares as is equal to the product of 1 multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the total number of Class
A Shares into which all of the Class B Shares in issue shall be converted pursuant to this Article and the denominator of which shall
be the total number of Class B Shares in issue at the time of conversion.

17.7 References in this Article to "converted", "conversion" or "exchange" shall
mean the compulsory redemption without notice of Class B Shares of any Member and, on behalf of such Members, automatic application of
such redemption proceeds in paying for such new Class A Shares into which the Class B Shares have been converted or exchanged at a price
per Class B Share necessary to give effect to a conversion or exchange calculated on the basis that the Class A Shares to be issued as
part of the conversion or exchange will be issued at par. The Class A Shares to be issued on an exchange or conversion shall be registered
in the name of such Member or in such name as the Member may direct.

17.8 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Article, in no event may any Class B Share convert into
Class A Shares at a ratio that is less than one-for-one.

18 Amendments of Memorandum and Articles of Association and Alteration of Capital

18.1 The Company may by Ordinary Resolution:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) increase its share capital by such sum as the Ordinary Resolution shall prescribe and with such rights,
priorities and privileges annexed thereto, as the Company in general meeting may determine;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) consolidate and divide all or any of its share capital into Shares of larger amount than its existing
Shares;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) convert all or any of its paid-up Shares into stock, and reconvert that stock into paid-up Shares of any
denomination;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) by subdivision of its existing Shares or any of them divide the whole or any part of its share capital
into Shares of smaller amount than is fixed by the Memorandum or into Shares without par value; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) cancel any Shares that at the date of the passing of the Ordinary Resolution have not been taken or agreed
to be taken by any person and diminish the amount of its share capital by the amount of the Shares so cancelled.

18.2 All new Shares created in accordance with the provisions of the preceding Article shall be subject to
the same provisions of the Articles with reference to the payment of calls, liens, transfer, transmission, forfeiture and otherwise as
the Shares in the original share capital.

be held at such time and place as the Directors shall appoint. At these meetings the report of the Directors (if any) shall be presented.

20.3 The Directors, the chief executive officer or the chairperson of the board of Directors may call general
meetings, and, for the avoidance of doubt, Members shall not have the ability to call general meetings

21 Notice of General Meetings

21.1 At least five clear days' notice shall be given of any general meeting. Every notice shall specify the
place, the day and the hour of the meeting and the general nature of the business to be conducted at the general meeting and shall be
given in the manner hereinafter mentioned or in such other manner if any as may be prescribed by the Company, provided that a general
meeting of the Company shall, whether or not the notice specified in this Article has been given and whether or not the provisions of
the Articles regarding general meetings have been complied with, be deemed to have been duly convened if it is so agreed:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) in the case of an annual general meeting, by all of the Members entitled to attend and vote at the meeting;
and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in the case of an extraordinary general meeting, by a majority in number of the Members having a right
to attend and vote at the meeting, together holding not less than 95% in par value of the Shares giving that right.

21.2 The accidental omission to give notice of a general meeting to, or the non receipt of notice of a general
meeting by, any person entitled to receive such notice shall not invalidate the proceedings of that general meeting.

22 Proceedings at General Meetings

22.1 No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present. The holders of one-third
of the Shares being individuals present in person or by proxy or if a corporation or other non-natural person by its duly authorised representative
or proxy shall be a quorum.

22.2 A person may participate at a general meeting by conference telephone or other communications equipment
by means of which all the persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other. Participation by a person in a general
meeting in this manner is treated as presence in person at that meeting.

22.3 A resolution (including a Special Resolution) in writing (in one or more counterparts) signed by or on
behalf of all of the Members for the time being entitled to receive notice of and to attend and vote at general meetings (or, being corporations
or other non-natural persons, signed by their duly authorised representatives) shall be as valid and effective as if the resolution had
been passed at a general meeting of the Company duly convened and held.

22.4 If a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the meeting to commence, the
meeting shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week at the same time and/or place or to such other day, time and/or place as
the Directors may determine, and if at the adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for the
meeting to commence, the Members present shall be a quorum.

22.5 The Directors may, at any time prior to the time appointed for the meeting to commence, appoint any person
to act as chairperson of a general meeting of the Company or, if the Directors do not make any such appointment, the chairperson, if any,
of the board of Directors shall preside as chairperson at such general meeting. If there is no such chairperson, or if the person shall
not be present within 15 minutes after the time appointed for the meeting to commence, or is unwilling to act, the Directors present shall
elect one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

22.6 If no Director is willing to act as chairperson or if no Director is present within 15 minutes after the
time appointed for the meeting to commence, the Members present shall choose one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

22.7 The chairperson may, with the consent of a meeting at which a quorum is present (and shall if so directed
by the meeting) adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting
other than the business left unfinished at the meeting from which the adjournment took place.

22.8 When a general meeting is adjourned for 30 days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given
as in the case of an original meeting. Otherwise it shall not be necessary to give any such notice of an adjourned meeting.

22.9 If, prior to a Business Combination, a notice is issued in respect of a general meeting and the Directors,
in their absolute discretion, consider that it is impractical or undesirable for any reason to hold that general meeting at the place,
the day and the hour specified in the notice calling such general meeting, the Directors may postpone the general meeting to another place,
day and/or hour provided that notice of the place, the day and the hour of the rearranged general meeting is promptly given to all Members.
No business shall be transacted at any postponed meeting other than the business specified in the notice of the original meeting.

22.10 When a general meeting is postponed for 30 days or more, notice of the postponed meeting shall be given
as in the case of an original meeting. Otherwise it shall not be necessary to give any such notice of a postponed meeting. All proxy
forms submitted for the original general meeting shall remain valid for the postponed meeting. The Directors may postpone a general
meeting which has already been postponed.

22.11 A resolution put to the vote of the meeting shall be decided on a poll.

22.12 A poll shall be taken as the chairperson directs, and the result of the poll shall be deemed to be the
resolution of the general meeting at which the poll was demanded.

22.13 A poll demanded on the election of a chairperson or on a question of adjournment shall be taken forthwith.
A poll demanded on any other question shall be taken at such date, time and place as the chairperson of the general meeting directs, and
any business other than that upon which a poll has been demanded or is contingent thereon may proceed pending the taking of the poll.

22.14 In the case of an equality of votes the chairperson shall be entitled to a second or casting vote.

| 23 | Votes of Members |

---

23.1 Subject to any rights or restrictions attached to any Shares, including as set out at Articles 29.4 and
49.2, every Member present in any such manner shall have one vote for every Share of which they are the holder.

23.2 In the case of joint holders the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by
proxy (or, in the case of a corporation or other non-natural person, by its duly authorised representative or proxy), shall be accepted
to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names of the holders
stand in the Register of Members.

23.3 A Member of unsound mind, or in respect of whom an order has been made by any court, having jurisdiction
in lunacy, may vote by their committee, receiver, curator bonis, or other person on such Member's behalf appointed by that court, and
any such committee, receiver, curator bonis or other person may vote by proxy.

23.4 No person shall be entitled to vote at any general meeting unless they are registered as a Member on the
record date for such meeting nor unless all calls or other monies then payable by them in respect of Shares have been paid.

23.5 No objection shall be raised as to the qualification of any voter except at the general meeting or adjourned
general meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered and every vote not disallowed at the meeting shall be valid. Any objection
made in due time in accordance with this Article shall be referred to the chairperson whose decision shall be final and conclusive.

23.6 Votes may be cast either personally or by proxy (or in the case of a corporation or other non-natural
person by its duly authorised representative or proxy). A Member may appoint more than one proxy or the same proxy under one or more instruments
to attend and vote at a meeting. Where a Member appoints more than one proxy the instrument of proxy shall specify the number of Shares
in respect of which each proxy is entitled to exercise the related votes.

23.7 A Member holding more than one Share need not cast the votes in respect of their Shares in the same way
on any resolution and therefore may vote a Share or some or all such Shares either for or against a resolution and/or abstain from voting
a Share or some or all of the Shares and, subject to the terms of the instrument appointing the proxy, a proxy appointed under one or
more instruments may vote a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which they are appointed either for or against a resolution
and/or abstain from voting a Share or some or all of the Shares in respect of which they are appointed.

| 24 | Proxies |

---

24.1 The instrument appointing a proxy shall be in writing and shall be executed under the hand of the appointor
or of their attorney duly authorised in writing, or, if the appointor is a corporation or other non natural person, under the hand of
its duly authorised representative. A proxy need not be a Member.

24.2 The Directors may, in the notice convening any meeting or adjourned meeting, or in an instrument of proxy
sent out by the Company, specify the manner by which the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited and the place and the time (being
not later than the time appointed for the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting to which the proxy relates) at which the instrument
appointing a proxy shall be deposited. In the absence of any such direction from the Directors in the notice convening any meeting or
adjourned meeting or in an instrument of proxy sent out by the Company, the instrument appointing a proxy shall be deposited physically
at the Registered Office not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for the meeting or adjourned meeting to commence at which the
person named in the instrument proposes to vote.

24.3 The chairperson may in any event at their discretion declare that an instrument of proxy shall be deemed
to have been duly deposited. An instrument of proxy that is not deposited in the manner permitted, or which has not been declared to have
been duly deposited by the chairperson, shall be invalid.

24.4 The instrument appointing a proxy may be in any usual or common form (or such other form as the Directors
may approve) and may be expressed to be for a particular meeting or any adjournment thereof or generally until revoked. An instrument
appointing a proxy shall be deemed to include the power to demand or join or concur in demanding a poll.

24.5 Votes given in accordance with the terms of an instrument of proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the
previous death or insanity of the principal or revocation of the proxy or of the authority under which the proxy was executed, or the
transfer of the Share in respect of which the proxy is given unless notice in writing of such death, insanity, revocation or transfer
was received by the Company at the Registered Office before the commencement of the general meeting, or adjourned meeting at which it
is sought to use the proxy.

25 Corporate Members

25.1 Any corporation or other non-natural person which is a Member may in accordance with its constitutional
documents, or in the absence of such provision by resolution of its directors or other governing body, authorise such person as it thinks
fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Company or of any class of Members, and the person so authorised shall be entitled
to exercise the same powers on behalf of the corporation which they represent as the corporation could exercise if it were an individual
Member.

25.2 If a Clearing House (or its nominee(s)), being a corporation, is a Member, it may authorise such persons
as it sees fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Company or at any meeting of any class of Members provided that the
authorisation shall specify the number and class of Shares in respect of which each such representative is so authorised. Each person
so authorised under the provisions of this Article shall be deemed to have been duly authorised without further evidence of the facts
and be entitled to exercise the same rights and powers on behalf of the Clearing House (or its nominee(s)) as if such person was the registered
holder of such Shares held by the Clearing House (or its nominee(s)).

| 26 | Shares that May Not be Voted |

---

Shares in the Company that are beneficially owned by the Company shall not be voted, directly or indirectly, at any meeting and shall not be counted in determining the total number of outstanding Shares at any given time.

27 Directors

27.1 There shall be a board of Directors consisting of not less than one person provided however that the Company
may by Ordinary Resolution increase or reduce the limits in the number of Directors.

27.2 The Directors shall be divided into three classes: Class I, Class II and Class III. The number of Directors
in each class shall be as nearly equal as possible. Upon the adoption of the Articles, the existing Directors shall by resolution classify
themselves as Class I, Class II or Class III Directors. The Class I Directors shall stand appointed for a term expiring at the Company's
first annual general meeting, the Class II Directors shall stand appointed for a term expiring at the Company's second annual general
meeting and the Class III Directors shall stand appointed for a term expiring at the Company's third annual general meeting. Commencing
at the Company's first annual general meeting, and at each annual general meeting thereafter, Directors appointed to succeed those
Directors whose terms expire shall be appointed for a term of office to expire at the third succeeding annual general meeting after their
appointment. Except as the Statute or other Applicable Law may otherwise require, in the interim between annual general meetings or extraordinary
general meetings called for the appointment of Directors and/or the removal of one or more Directors and the filling of any vacancy in
that connection, additional Directors and any vacancies in the board of Directors, including unfilled vacancies resulting from the removal
of Directors for cause, may be filled by the vote of a majority of the remaining Directors then in office, although less than a quorum
(as defined in the Articles), or by the sole remaining Director. All Directors shall hold office until the expiration of their respective
terms of office and until their successors shall have been appointed and qualified. A Director appointed to fill a vacancy resulting from
the death, resignation or removal of a Director shall serve for the remainder of the full term of the Director whose death, resignation
or removal shall have created such vacancy and until their successor shall have been appointed and qualified.

by Special Resolution, the business of the Company shall be managed by the Directors who may exercise all the powers of the Company. No
alteration of the Memorandum or Articles and no such direction shall invalidate any prior act of the Directors which would have been valid
if that alteration had not been made or that direction had not been given. A duly convened meeting of Directors at which a quorum is present
may exercise all powers exercisable by the Directors.

and all receipts for monies paid to the Company shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed as the case may be in
such manner as the Directors shall determine by resolution.

any third party.

29.1 The Company may by Ordinary Resolution appoint any person to be a Director or may by Ordinary Resolution
remove any Director, provided that prior to the consummation of a Business Combination and for so long as there are Class B Shares in
issue, only the holders of the Class B Shares shall be entitled to vote on any such Ordinary Resolution. For the avoidance of doubt, prior
to the consummation of a Business Combination, if there are any Class B Shares in issue, holders of Class A Shares shall have no right
to vote on the appointment or removal of any Director.

meeting of which notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution has been given, or by way of unanimous
written resolution.

30 Vacation of Office of Director

The office of a Director shall be vacated if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Director gives notice in writing to the Company that they resign the office of Director; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Director is absent (for the avoidance of doubt, without being represented by proxy) from three consecutive
meetings of the board of Directors without special leave of absence from the Directors, and the Directors pass a resolution that they
have by reason of such absence vacated office; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the Director dies, becomes bankrupt or makes any arrangement or composition with their creditors generally;
or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the Director is found to be or becomes of unsound mind; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) all of the other Directors (being not less than two in number) determine that the Director should be removed
as a Director, either by a resolution passed by all of the other Directors at a meeting of the Directors duly convened and held in accordance
with the Articles or by a resolution in writing signed by all of the other Directors.

or other communications equipment by means of which all the persons participating in the meeting can communicate with each other at the
same time. Participation by a person in a meeting in this manner is treated as presence in person at that meeting. Unless otherwise determined

31.4 A resolution in writing (in one or more counterparts) signed by all the Directors or all the members of
a committee of the Directors or, in the case of a resolution in writing relating to the removal of any Director or the vacation of office
by any Director, all of the Directors other than the Director who is the subject of such resolution shall be as valid and effectual as
if it had been passed at a meeting of the Directors, or committee of Directors as the case may be, duly convened and held.

31.5 A Director may, or other Officer on the direction of a Director shall, call a meeting of the Directors
by at least two days' notice in writing to every Director which notice shall set forth the general nature of the business to be considered
unless notice is waived by all the Directors either at, before or after the meeting is held. To any such notice of a meeting of the Directors
all the provisions of the Articles relating to the giving of notices by the Company to the Members shall apply *mutatis mutandis.* 

31.6 The continuing Directors (or a sole continuing Director, as the case may be) may act notwithstanding any
vacancy in their body, but if and so long as their number is reduced below the number fixed by or pursuant to the Articles as the necessary
quorum of Directors the continuing Directors or Director may act for the purpose of increasing the number of Directors to be equal to
such fixed number, or of summoning a general meeting of the Company, but for no other purpose.

31.7 The Directors may elect a chairperson of their board and determine the period for which they are to hold

appointed for the meeting to commence, the Directors present may choose one of their number to be chairperson of the meeting.

31.8 All acts done by any meeting of the Directors or of a committee of the Directors shall, notwithstanding
that it is afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of any Director, and/or that they or any of them were disqualified,
and/or had vacated their office and/or were not entitled to vote, be as valid as if every such person had been duly appointed and/or not
disqualified to be a Director and/or had not vacated their office and/or had been entitled to vote, as the case may be.

31.9 A Director may be represented at any meetings of the board of Directors by a proxy appointed in writing
by that Director. The proxy shall count towards the quorum and the vote of the proxy shall for all purposes be deemed to be that of the
appointing Director.

32 Presumption of Assent

A Director who is present at a meeting of the board of Directors at which action on any Company matter is taken shall be presumed to have assented to the action taken unless their dissent shall be entered in the minutes of the meeting or unless they shall file their written dissent from such action with the person acting as the chairperson or secretary of the meeting before the adjournment thereof or shall forward such dissent by registered post to such person immediately after the adjournment of the meeting. Such right to dissent shall not apply to a Director who voted in favour of such action.

in, such other company.

so contracting or being so interested be liable to account to the Company for any profit realised by or arising in connection with any
such contract or transaction by reason of such Director holding office or of the fiduciary relationship thereby established. A Director
shall be at liberty to vote in respect of any contract or transaction in which they are interested provided that the nature of the interest
of any Director in any such contract or transaction shall be disclosed by them at or prior to its consideration and any vote thereon.

33.5 A general notice that a Director is a shareholder, director, officer or employee of any specified firm
or company and is to be regarded as interested in any transaction with such firm or company shall be sufficient disclosure for the purposes
of voting on a resolution in respect of a contract or transaction in which they have an interest, and after such general notice it shall
not be necessary to give special notice relating to any particular transaction.

35.1 The Directors may delegate any of their powers, authorities and discretions, including the power to sub-delegate,

the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee). Any such delegation may be made subject to any conditions the Directors may impose
and either collaterally with or to the exclusion of their own powers and any such delegation may be revoked or altered by the Directors.
Subject to any such conditions, the proceedings of a committee of Directors shall be governed by the Articles regulating the proceedings
of Directors, so far as they are capable of applying.

the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable Law.

revoked by the Directors at any time.

35.5 The Directors may by power of attorney or otherwise appoint any company, firm, person or body of persons,
whether nominated directly or indirectly by the Directors, to be the attorney or authorised signatory of the Company for such purpose

may think fit and may also authorise any such attorney or authorised signatory to delegate all or any of the powers, authorities and discretions
vested in them.

and to perform such duties, and subject to such provisions as to disqualification and removal as the Directors may think fit. Unless otherwise

their office at any time if they give notice in writing to the Company that they resign their office.

| 38 | Seal |

---

38.1 The Company may, if the Directors so determine, have a Seal. The Seal shall only be used by the authority

be signed by at least one person who shall be either a Director or some Officer or other person appointed by the Directors for the purpose.

38.2 The Company may have for use in any place or places outside the Cayman Islands a duplicate Seal or Seals

39 Dividends, Distributions and Reserve

39.1 Subject to the Statute and this Article and except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any
Shares, the Directors may resolve to pay Dividends and other distributions on Shares in issue and authorise payment of the Dividends or
other distributions out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefor. A Dividend shall be deemed to be an interim Dividend
unless the terms of the resolution pursuant to which the Directors resolve to pay such Dividend specifically state that such Dividend
shall be a final Dividend. No Dividend or other distribution shall be paid except out of the realised or unrealised profits of the Company,
out of the share premium account or as otherwise permitted by law.

39.2 Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, all Dividends and other distributions
shall be paid according to the par value of the Shares that a Member holds. If any Share is issued on terms providing that it shall rank

39.3 The Directors may deduct from any Dividend or other distribution payable to any Member all sums of money
(if any) then payable by the Member to the Company on account of calls or otherwise.

39.4 The Directors may resolve that any Dividend or other distribution be paid wholly or partly by the distribution
of specific assets and in particular (but without limitation) by the distribution of shares, debentures, or securities of any other company
or in any one or more of such ways and where any difficulty arises in regard to such distribution, the Directors may settle the same as
they think expedient and in particular may issue fractional Shares and may fix the value for distribution of such specific assets or any
part thereof and may determine that cash payments shall be made to any Members upon the basis of the value so fixed in order to adjust
the rights of all Members and may vest any such specific assets in trustees in such manner as may seem expedient to the Directors.

39.5 Except as otherwise provided by the rights attached to any Shares, Dividends and other distributions may
be paid in any currency. The Directors may determine the basis of conversion for any currency conversions that may be required and how
any costs involved are to be met.

39.6 The Directors may, before resolving to pay any Dividend or other distribution, set aside such sums as
they think proper as a reserve or reserves which shall, at the discretion of the Directors, be applicable for any purpose of the Company
and pending such application may, at the discretion of the Directors, be employed in the business of the Company.

39.7 Any Dividend, other distribution, interest or other monies payable in cash in respect of Shares may be
paid by wire transfer to the holder or by cheque or warrant sent through the post directed to the registered address of the holder or,
in the case of joint holders, to the registered address of the holder who is first named on the Register of Members or to such person
and to such address as such holder or joint holders may in writing direct. Every such cheque or warrant shall be made payable to the order
of the person to whom it is sent. Any one of two or more joint holders may give effectual receipts for any Dividends, other distributions,
bonuses, or other monies payable in respect of the Share held by them as joint holders.

39.8 No Dividend or other distribution shall bear interest against the Company.

39.9 Any Dividend or other distribution which cannot be paid to a Member and/or which remains unclaimed after
six months from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable may, in the discretion of the Directors, be paid
into a separate account in the Company's name, provided that the Company shall not be constituted as a trustee in respect of that account
and the Dividend or other distribution shall remain as a debt due to the Member. Any Dividend or other distribution which remains unclaimed
after a period of six years from the date on which such Dividend or other distribution becomes payable shall be forfeited and shall revert
to the Company.

39.10 Other than with respect to payments or distributions from the Trust Account, no Dividends or other distributions
shall be payable on the Class A Shares unless approved by consent in writing of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the issued
Class B Shares.

40 Capitalisation

The Directors may at any time capitalise any sum standing to the credit of any of the Company's reserve accounts or funds (including the share premium account and capital redemption reserve fund) or any sum standing to the credit of the profit and loss account or otherwise available for distribution; appropriate such sum to Members in the proportions in which such sum would have been divisible amongst such Members had the same been a distribution of profits by way of Dividend or other distribution; and apply such sum on their behalf in paying up in full unissued Shares for allotment and distribution credited as fully paid-up to and amongst them in the proportion aforesaid. In such event the Directors shall do all acts and things required to give effect to such capitalisation, with full power given to the Directors to make such provisions as they think fit in the case of Shares becoming distributable in fractions (including provisions whereby the benefit of fractional entitlements accrue to the Company rather than to the Members concerned). The Directors may authorise any person to enter on behalf of all of the Members interested into an agreement with the Company providing for such capitalisation and matters incidental or relating thereto and any agreement made under such authority shall be effective and binding on all such Members and the Company.

41 Books of Account

41.1 The Directors shall cause proper books of account (including, where applicable, material underlying
documentation including contracts and invoices) to be kept with respect to all sums of money received and expended by the Company and
the matters in respect of which the receipt or expenditure takes place, all sales and purchases of goods by the Company and the assets
and liabilities of the Company. Such books of account must be retained for a minimum period of five years from the date on which they
are prepared. Proper books shall not be deemed to be kept if there are not kept such books of account as are necessary to give a true
and fair view of the state of the Company's affairs and to explain its transactions.

41.2 The Directors shall determine whether and to what extent and at what times and places and under what conditions
or regulations the accounts and books of the Company or any of them shall be open to the inspection of Members not being Directors and
no Member (not being a Director) shall have any right of inspecting any account or book or document of the Company except as conferred
by Statute or authorised by the Directors or by the Company in general meeting.

depositary receipts therefor) are listed or quoted on the Designated Stock Exchange, and if required by the rules and regulations of the
Designated Stock Exchange, the Securities and Exchange Commission and/or any other competent regulatory authority or otherwise under Applicable
Law, the Directors shall establish and maintain an Audit Committee as a committee of the Directors and shall adopt a formal written Audit
Committee charter and review and assess the adequacy of the formal written charter on an annual basis. The composition and responsibilities

of acting by reason of illness or other disability at a time when their services are required, the Directors shall fill the vacancy and
determine the remuneration of such Auditor.

42.6 Every Auditor of the Company shall have a right of access at all times to the books and accounts and vouchers
of the Company and shall be entitled to require from the Directors and Officers such information and explanation as may be necessary for
the performance of the duties of the Auditor.

42.7 Auditors shall, if so required by the Directors, make a report on the accounts of the Company during their
tenure of office at the next annual general meeting following their appointment in the case of a company which is registered with the
Registrar of Companies as an ordinary company, and at the next extraordinary general meeting following their appointment in the case of

44.1 If the Company shall be wound up, the liquidator shall apply the assets of the Company in satisfaction
of creditors' claims in such manner and order as such liquidator thinks fit. Subject to the rights attaching to any Shares, in a winding
up:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be insufficient to repay the whole
of the Company's issued share capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the
Members in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) if the assets available for distribution amongst the Members shall be more than sufficient to repay the
whole of the Company's issued share capital at the commencement of the winding up, the surplus shall be distributed amongst the Members
in proportion to the par value of the Shares held by them at the commencement of the winding up subject to a deduction from those Shares
in respect of which there are monies due, of all monies payable to the Company for unpaid calls or otherwise.

44.2 If the Company shall be wound up the liquidator may, subject to the rights attaching to any Shares and
with the approval of a Special Resolution of the Company and any other approval required by the Statute, divide amongst the Members in
kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether such assets shall consist of property of the same kind or not) and may
for that purpose value any assets and determine how the division shall be carried out as between the Members or different classes of Members.
The liquidator may, with the like approval, vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of
the Members as the liquidator, with the like approval, shall think fit, but so that no Member shall be compelled to accept any asset upon
which there is a liability.

45 Indemnity and Insurance

45.1 Every Director and Officer (which for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include auditors of the Company),
together with every former Director and former Officer (each an "**Indemnified Person**") shall be indemnified out of the
assets of the Company against any liability, action, proceeding, claim, demand, costs, damages or expenses, including legal expenses,
whatsoever which they or any of them may incur as a result of any act or failure to act in carrying out their functions other than such
liability (if any) that they may incur by reason of their own actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default. No Indemnified Person shall
be liable to the Company for any loss or damage incurred by the Company as a result (whether direct or indirect) of the carrying out of
their functions unless that liability arises through the actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default of such Indemnified Person. No
person shall be found to have committed actual fraud, wilful neglect or wilful default under this Article unless or until a court of competent
jurisdiction shall have made a finding to that effect.

45.2 The Company shall advance to each Indemnified Person reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the defence of any action, suit, proceeding or investigation involving such Indemnified Person for which indemnity
will or could be sought. In connection with any advance of any expenses hereunder, the Indemnified Person shall execute an undertaking
to repay the advanced amount to the Company if it shall be determined by final judgment or other final adjudication that such Indemnified
Person was not entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Article. If it shall be determined by a final judgment or other final adjudication
that such Indemnified Person was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such judgment, costs or expenses, then such party shall
not be indemnified with respect to such judgment, costs or expenses and any advancement shall be returned to the Company (without interest)
by the Indemnified Person.

45.3 The Directors, on behalf of the Company, may purchase and maintain insurance for the benefit of any Director
or Officer against any liability which, by virtue of any rule of law, would otherwise attach to such person in respect of any negligence,
default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which such person may be guilty in relation to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) only the Class B Shares shall carry the right to vote on any resolution of the shareholders to approve
any transfer by way of continuation pursuant to this Article (including any resolution required to amend the Memorandum and Articles or
to adopt new constitutional documents of the Company, in each case, as a result of the Company approving a transfer by way of continuation
in a jurisdiction outside the Cayman Islands); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) this Article 49.2 may only be amended by a Special Resolution passed by at least 90% of such Members as,
being entitled to do so, vote in person or, where proxies are allowed, by proxy at a general meeting of which notice specifying the intention
to propose the resolution as a special resolution has been given, or by way of unanimous written resolution.

49 Business Combination

49.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Articles, this Article shall apply during the period commencing
upon the adoption of the Articles and terminating upon the first to occur of the consummation of a Business Combination and the full distribution
of the Trust Account pursuant to this Article. In the event of a conflict between this Article and any other Articles, the provisions
of this Article shall prevail.

49.2 Prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company shall either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) submit such Business Combination to its Members for approval; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) provide Members with the opportunity to have their Shares repurchased by means of a tender offer for a
per-Share repurchase price payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, calculated as of two business
days prior to the consummation of such Business Combination, including interest earned on the Trust Account (net of taxes paid or payable,
if any), divided by the number of then issued Public Shares. Such obligation to repurchase Shares is subject to the completion of the
proposed Business Combination to which it relates.

49.3 If the Company initiates any tender offer in accordance with Rule 13e-4 and Regulation 14E of the Exchange
Act in connection with a proposed Business Combination, it shall file tender offer documents with the Securities and Exchange Commission
prior to completing such Business Combination which contain substantially the same financial and other information about such Business
Combination and the redemption rights as is required under Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act. If, alternatively, the Company holds a
general meeting to approve a proposed Business Combination, the Company will conduct any redemptions in conjunction with a proxy solicitation
pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act, and not pursuant to the tender offer rules, and file proxy materials with the Securities
and Exchange Commission.

49.4 At a general meeting called for the purposes of approving a Business Combination pursuant to this Article,
in the event that such Business Combination is approved by Ordinary Resolution, the Company shall be authorised to consummate such Business
Combination.

49.5 Any Member holding Public Shares who is not the Sponsor, a Founder, Officer or Director may, in connection
with any vote on a Business Combination, elect to have their Public Shares redeemed for cash, in accordance with any applicable requirements
provided for in the related proxy materials (the "**Business Combination Redemption** "), provided that no such Member acting
together with any Affiliate of their or any other person with whom they are acting in concert or as a partnership, limited partnership,
syndicate, or other group (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a "group" (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act)
for the purposes of acquiring, holding, or disposing of Shares may exercise this redemption right with respect to more than 20% of the
Public Shares in the aggregate without the prior consent of the Company and provided further that any beneficial holder of Public Shares
on whose behalf a redemption right is being exercised must identify itself to the Company in connection with any redemption election in
order to validly redeem such Public Shares. If so demanded, the Company shall pay any such redeeming Member, regardless of whether they
are voting for or against such proposed Business Combination, a per-Share redemption price payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount
then on deposit in the Trust Account calculated as of two business days prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, including
interest earned on the Trust Account (such interest shall be net of taxes payable) and not previously released to the Company to pay its
taxes, divided by the number of then issued Public Shares (such redemption price being referred to herein as the "**Redemption Price** "),
but only in the event that the applicable proposed Business Combination is approved and in connection with its consummation.

49.6 A Member may not withdraw a Redemption Notice once submitted to the Company unless the Directors determine
(in their sole discretion) to permit the withdrawal of such redemption request (which they may do in whole or in part). The Directors
(in their sole discretion) shall determine the timing of such Business Combination Redemption of Public Shares in order to facilitate
the consummation and/or closing of a Business Combination.

49.7 In the event that

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Company does not consummate a Business Combination within 24 months from the consummation of the IPO,
or such later time as the Members may approve by Special Resolution in accordance with the Articles, (the "**Deadline Date** "),
or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) if the Directors determine by resolution, and provide notice in writing to the Members, that the Company
is unable to consummate a Business Combination by the Deadline Date,

the Company shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public 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 and not previously released to the Company (less taxes payable and up to US$100,000 of interest to
pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then Public Shares in issue, which redemption will completely extinguish public Members'
rights as Members (including the right to receive further liquidation distributions, if any); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company's
remaining Members and the Directors, liquidate and dissolve,

subject in each case to its obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of Applicable Law.

Business Combination or redeem 100% of the Public Shares if the Company does not consummate a Business Combination by the Deadline Date,
or such later time as the Members may approve by Special Resolution in accordance with the Articles; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) with respect to any other provision relating to Members' rights or pre-Business Combination activity,

each holder of Public Shares who is not the Sponsor, a Founder, Officer or Director shall be provided with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares (the "**Amendment Redemption**") upon the approval or 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 funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares. The Directors (in their sole discretion) shall determine the timing of any such Amendment Redemption.

49.9 A holder of Public Shares shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust Account only in the
event of a Business Combination Redemption, an Amendment Redemption, a repurchase of Shares by means of a tender offer pursuant to this
Article, or a distribution of the Trust Account pursuant to this Article. In no other circumstance shall a holder of Public Shares have
any right or interest of any kind in the Trust Account.

49.10 Except in connection with the conversion of Class B Shares into Class A Shares pursuant to the Class B
Ordinary Share Conversion Article hereof where the holders of such Shares have waived any right to receive funds from the Trust Account,
after the issue of Public Shares, and prior to the consummation of a Business Combination, the Company shall not issue additional Shares
or any other securities that would entitle the holders thereof to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) receive funds from the Trust Account; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) vote as a class with Public Shares on a Business Combination.

49.11 Following the IPO, no additional sums shall be deposited by the Company in the Trust Account without the
consent in writing of the holders of not less than two-thirds of the issued Class B Shares.

and any of the following parties:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any Member owning an interest in the voting power of the Company that gives such Member a significant
influence over the Company; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any Director or Officer and any Affiliate of such Director or Officer.

49.13 A Director may vote in respect of a Business Combination in which such Director has a conflict of interest
with respect to the evaluation of such Business Combination. Such Director must disclose such interest or conflict to the other Directors.

49.14 As long as the securities of the Company are listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, the Company must complete
one or more Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding
the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the income earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the Company's signing
a definitive agreement in connection with a Business Combination. A Business Combination must not be solely effectuated with another blank
cheque company or a similar company with nominal operations.

49.15 The Company may enter into a Business Combination with a target business that is Affiliated with the Sponsor,
a Founder, a Director or an Officer. In the event the Company seeks to consummate a Business Combination with a target that is Affiliated
with the Sponsor, a Founder, a Director or an Officer, the Company, or a committee of Independent Directors, will obtain an opinion from
an independent investment banking firm which is a member of FINRA or an independent valuation or appraisal firm that regularly provides
fairness opinions solely with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria that such a Business Combination is fair to the Company from
a financial point of view.

50 Certain Tax Filings

or similar business activities or lines of business as the Company. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Company renounces
any interest or expectancy of the Company in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any potential transaction or matter
which may be a corporate opportunity for Management, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other. Except to the extent expressly assumed
by contract, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, Management shall have no duty to communicate or offer any such corporate
opportunity to the Company and shall not be liable to the Company or its Members for breach of any fiduciary duty as a Member, Director
and/or Officer solely by reason of the fact that such party pursues or acquires such corporate opportunity for itself directs such corporate
opportunity to another person, or does not communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Company.

51.2 Except as provided elsewhere in this Article, the Company hereby renounces any interest or expectancy
of the Company in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, any potential transaction or matter which may be a corporate
opportunity for both the Company and Management, about which a Director and/or Officer who is also a member of Management acquires knowledge.

51.3 To the extent a court might hold that the conduct of any activity related to a corporate opportunity that
is renounced in this Article to be a breach of duty to the Company or its Members, the Company hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted
by Applicable Law, any and all claims and causes of action that the Company may have for such activities. To the fullest extent permitted
by Applicable Law, the provisions of this Article apply equally to activities conducted in the future and that have been conducted in
the past.

52 Exclusive Jurisdiction and Forum

52.1 Unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the courts of the Cayman
Islands shall have exclusive jurisdiction over any claim or dispute arising out of or in connection with the Memorandum, the Articles
or otherwise related in any way to each Member's shareholding in the Company, including but not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any action asserting a claim of breach of any fiduciary or other duty owed by any current or former Director,
Officer or other employee of the Company to the Company or the Members;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the Statute, the Memorandum or the Articles;

and that accordingly the Company shall be entitled, without proof of special damages, to the remedies of injunction, specific performance
or other equitable relief for any threatened or actual breach of the selection of the courts of the Cayman Islands as exclusive forum.

## Exhibit 10.1

**Exhibit 10.1**

January 22, 2026

Helix Acquisition Corp. III

c/o Cormorant Asset Management, LP

200 Clarendon Street, 52nd Floor

Boston, MA 02116

Re: <u>Initial Public Offering</u>

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter (this "***Letter Agreement***") is being delivered to you in accordance with the Underwriting Agreement (the "***Underwriting Agreement***") entered into by and among Helix Acquisition Corp. III, a Cayman Islands exempted company (the "***Company***"), Leerink Partners LLC and Oppenheimer & Co. Inc. (the "***Underwriters***"), relating to an underwritten initial public offering (the "***Public Offering***") of up to 17,250,000 of the Company's Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share (including up to 2,250,000 shares that may be purchased to cover over-allotments, if any) (the "***Class A Ordinary Shares***"). The Class A Ordinary Shares will be sold in the Public Offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 and prospectus (the "***Prospectus***") filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "***Commission***") and the Company has applied to have the Class A Ordinary Shares listed on The Nasdaq Global Market. Certain capitalized terms used herein are defined in paragraph 11 hereof.

In order to induce the Company and the Underwriters to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and to proceed with the Public Offering and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each of Helix Holdings III LLC (the "***Sponsor***") and the undersigned individuals, each of whom is a member of the Company's board of directors and/or management team (each of the undersigned individuals, an "***Insider***" and collectively, the "***Insiders***"), hereby agrees with the Company as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. It is acknowledged and agreed that the Company shall not enter into
a definitive agreement regarding a proposed Business Combination without the prior consent of the Sponsor. The Sponsor and each Insider
agrees that if the Company seeks shareholder approval of a proposed Business Combination, then in connection with such proposed Business
Combination, it, he or she shall (i) vote any Ordinary Shares (as defined below) owned by it, him or her in favor of any proposed Business
Combination (except with respect to any such Offering Shares (as defined below) which may not be voted in favor of approving the Business
Combination in accordance with the requirements of Rule 14e-5 under the Exchange Act (as defined below) and any Commission interpretations
or guidance relating thereto) and (ii) not redeem any Ordinary Shares owned by it, him or her 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 it, he or she will not sell or tender to the Company any Ordinary Shares owned by it, him or her in connection therewith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The Sponsor and each Insider hereby agrees that in the event that the Company fails to consummate a Business
Combination within 24 months from the closing of the Public Offering, or such later period approved by the Company's shareholders
in accordance with the Company's amended and restated memorandum and articles of association (as it may be amended from time to
time, the "  ***Charter*** "), the Sponsor and each Insider shall take all reasonable steps to cause the Company to,
as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten (10) business days thereafter, redeem 100% of the Class A Ordinary Shares 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 (as defined below), including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account (less taxes
paid or payable and up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Offering
Shares, which redemption will constitute full and complete payment for the Offering Shares and completely extinguish all Public Shareholders'
(as defined below) rights as shareholders (including the right to receive further liquidating or other distributions, if any), subject
to the Company's obligations under Cayman Islands law to provide for claims of creditors and in all cases subject to the other requirements
of applicable law. The Sponsor and each Insider agrees to not propose any amendment to the Charter (A) to 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 Offering Shares
if the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the required time period set forth in the Charter or (B) with respect to
any other material provisions relating to shareholders' rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity, unless the Company
provides its Public Shareholders with the opportunity to redeem their Offering Shares upon approval 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 funds held
in the Trust Account (net of taxes paid or payable), divided by the number of then issued and outstanding Offering Shares.

The Sponsor and each Insider acknowledges that it, he or she has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account with respect to the Founder Shares held by it, him or her. The Sponsor and each Insider hereby further waives, with respect to any Ordinary Shares held by it, him or her, if any, any redemption rights it, he or she may have in connection with (a) the consummation of a Business Combination, including, without limitation, any such rights available in the context of a shareholder vote to approve such Business Combination, or (b) a shareholder vote to approve an amendment to the Charter (A) to 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 Offering Shares if the Company has not consummated a Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Charter or (B) with respect to any other material provisions relating to shareholders' rights or pre-initial Business Combination activity or in the context of a tender offer made by the Company to purchase Offering Shares (although the Sponsor, the Insiders and their respective affiliates shall be entitled to redemption and liquidation rights with respect to any Offering Shares it or they hold if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Charter).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. During the period commencing on the effective date of the Underwriting Agreement and ending 180 days after
such date, the Sponsor and each Insider shall not, without the prior written consent of the Representative, (i) sell, offer to sell, contract
or agree to sell, hypothecate, pledge, grant any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agree to dispose of, directly or indirectly,
or establish or increase a put equivalent position or liquidate or decrease a call equivalent position within the meaning of Section 16
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "  ***Exchange Act*** "), and the rules and regulations of the
Commission promulgated thereunder, with respect to Ordinary Shares (including, but not limited to, Founder Shares) or any securities convertible
into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, Ordinary Shares owned by it, him or her, (ii) enter into any swap or other arrangement that
transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Ordinary Shares (including, but not limited
to, Founder Shares) or any securities convertible into, or exercisable, or exchangeable for, Ordinary Shares owned by it, him or her,
whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of such securities, in cash or otherwise, or (iii) publicly announce any intention
to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii). The provisions of this paragraph will not apply to any transfer permitted under
paragraph 7(c) hereof or if the release or waiver is effected solely to permit a transfer not for consideration and the transferee has
agreed in writing to be bound by the same terms described in this Letter Agreement to the extent and for the duration that such terms
remain in effect at the time of the transfer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. In the event of the liquidation of the Trust Account upon the failure of the Company to consummate its
initial Business Combination within the time period set forth in the Charter, the Sponsor (the "  ***Indemnitor*** ")
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) to which the Company may become subject as a result of any claim by (i) any third party for services rendered
or products sold to the Company (except for the Company's independent auditors) or (ii) any prospective target business with which
the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or other similar agreement, in connection with an extension of
the timeframe for the Company to consummate a Business Combination or Business Combination agreement (a "  ***Target*** "); <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that such indemnification of the Company by the Indemnitor (x) shall apply only to the extent necessary
to ensure that such claims by a third party or a Target do not reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of
(i) $10.00 per Offering Share and (ii) the actual amount per Offering Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation
of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per Offering Share is then held in the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust
assets, less taxes payable, (y) shall not apply to any claims by a third party or a Target which executed a waiver of any and all rights
to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) and (z) shall not apply to any claims under the Company's
indemnity of the Underwriters against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Indemnitor
shall have the right to defend against any such claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Company if, within 15
days following written receipt of notice of the claim to the Indemnitor, the Indemnitor notifies the Company in writing that it shall
undertake such defense.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. To the extent that the Underwriters do not exercise their over-allotment
option to purchase up to an additional 1,875,000 Class A Ordinary Shares within 45 days from the date of the Prospectus (and as further
described in the Prospectus), the Sponsor agrees to forfeit, at no cost, a number of Founder Shares equal to 562,500 multiplied by a fraction,
(i) the numerator of which is 2,250,000 minus the number of Class A Ordinary Shares purchased by the Underwriters upon the exercise of
their over-allotment option, and (ii) the denominator of which is 2,250,000. The forfeiture will be adjusted to the extent that the over-allotment
option is not exercised in full by the Underwriters so that the Founder Shares will represent an aggregate of 20.0% of the Company's
issued and outstanding Class A Ordinary Shares after the Public Offering (on an as-converted basis not including the Private Placement
Shares (as defined below)). The Initial Shareholders further agree that to the extent that the size of the Public Offering is increased

shall forward such payment to the relevant taxing authority so long as there is no reduction in the principal amount per share initially
deposited in the Trust Account, 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

In accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement, the Company hereby authorizes you to commence to liquidate all of the assets of the Trust Account, and to transfer the proceeds to a segregated account held by you on behalf of the Beneficiaries to the effect that, on the Consummation Date, all of the funds held in the Trust Operating Account will be immediately available for transfer to the account or accounts that the Company shall direct on the Consummation Date (including as directed to it by the Underwriters (with respect to the Deferred Discount)).

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 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) a certificate by the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or Chief Legal Officer, which verifies that the Business Combination has been approved by a vote of the Company's shareholders, if a vote is held and (b) a joint written instruction signed by the Company and the Underwriters with respect to the transfer of the funds held in the Trust Operating Account, including payment of amounts owed to public shareholders who have properly exercised their redemption rights and payment of the Deferred Discount directly to the account or accounts directed by the Underwriters from the Trust Account (the "***Instruction Letter***").

In the event that the Business Combination is not consummated on the Consummation Date described in the notice thereof and the Company has 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 such notice as soon thereafter as possible.

the Registration Statement that has been previously filed with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration becomes effective
or is subsequently terminated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1.3 <u>Underwritten Offering</u>. Subject to the provisions of <u>subsection 2.1.4</u> and <u>Section 2.4</u> hereof, if a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders so advise the Company as part of their Demand
Registration that the offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an Underwritten
Offering, then the right of such Demanding Holder or Requesting Holder (if any) to include its Registrable Securities in such Registration
shall be conditioned upon such Holder's participation in such Underwritten Offering and the inclusion of such Holder's Registrable
Securities in such Underwritten Offering to the extent provided herein. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities
through an Underwritten Offering under this <u>subsection 2.1.3</u> shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with
the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating the Demand
Registration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1.4 <u>Reduction of Underwritten Offering</u>. If the managing Underwriter
or Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration, in good faith, advises the Company, the Demanding Holders
and the Requesting Holders (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and
the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other Ordinary Shares or other equity securities that the Company
desires to sell and the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which a Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual
piggy-back registration rights held by any other shareholders who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number
of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing,
the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities,
as applicable, the "*Maximum Number of Securities* "), then the Company shall
include in such Underwritten Offering, as follows: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders
(if any) (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Demanding Holder and Requesting Holder (if any)
has requested be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders
and Requesting Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Registration (such proportion is referred to herein as "*Pro Rata* ")) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (ii) second,
to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Registrable Securities of
Holders (Pro Rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has so requested) exercising their rights
to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to <u>subsection 2.2.1</u> hereof, without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;
and (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the
Ordinary Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of
Securities; and (iv) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i),

Number of Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1.5 <u>Demand Registration Withdrawal</u>. A majority-in-interest of the
Demanding Holders initiating a Demand Registration or a majority-in-interest of the Requesting Holders (if any), pursuant to a Registration
under <u>subsection 2.1.1</u> hereof shall have the right to withdraw from a Registration pursuant to such Demand Registration for any
or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw
from such Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to the Registration
of their Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the
Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration
prior to its withdrawal under this <u>subsection 2.1.5</u>.

2.2 Piggyback Registration.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2.1 <u>Piggyback Rights</u>. If, at any time on or after the date the Company
consummates a Business Combination, the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an
offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into equity securities,
for its own account or for the account of shareholders of the Company (or by the Company and by the shareholders of the Company including,
without limitation, pursuant to <u>Section 2.1</u> hereof), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee
share option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company's existing shareholders,
(iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then

not less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement, which notice shall (A) describe the amount
and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution, and the name of the proposed managing
Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to
register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within five (5) days after receipt of
such written notice (such Registration a "*Piggyback Registration* "). The Company
shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and shall use its best efforts to
cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the
Holders pursuant to this <u>subsection 2.2.1</u> to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar
securities of the Company included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in
accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities
through an Underwritten Offering under this <u>subsection 2.2.1</u> shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with
the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2.2 <u>Reduction of Piggyback Registration</u>. If the managing Underwriter
or Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration that is to be a Piggyback Registration, in good faith, advises the Company and the Holders
of Registrable Securities participating in the Piggyback Registration in writing that the dollar amount or number of the Ordinary Shares
that the Company desires to sell, taken together with (i) the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which Registration has been demanded pursuant
to separate written contractual arrangements with persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities hereunder (ii)
the Registrable Securities as to which registration has been requested pursuant to <u>Section 2.2</u> hereof, and (iii) the Ordinary Shares,
if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders
of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If the Registration is undertaken for the Company's account, the Company shall include in any such
Registration (A) first, the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding

clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to <u>subsection 2.2.1</u> hereof (pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that such Holder has requested be included in such

of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Ordinary Shares, if any, as to which Registration has
been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other shareholders of the Company, which can be sold
without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Registration is pursuant to a request by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable
Securities, then the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities, if any,
of such requesting persons or entities, other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum
Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause
(A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to <u>subsection 2.2.1</u> hereof, pro rata based on the number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has requested be included in such Registration
and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Holders have requested to be included in such Registration, which can be sold
without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached
under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Ordinary Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be
sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been

which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2.3 Any Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to withdraw
from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters
(if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw from such Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement
filed with the Commission with respect to such Piggyback Registration. The Company (whether on its own good faith determination or as
the result of a request for withdrawal by persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement
filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in
connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this <u>subsection 2.2.3</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2.4 <u>Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights</u>. For purposes of clarity,
any Registration effected pursuant to <u>Section 2.2</u> hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration
effected under <u>Section 2.1</u> hereof.

2.3 <u>Shelf Registration</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3.1 The Holders of Registrable Securities may at any time, and from time
to time, request in writing that the Company, pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter
by the Commission), register the resale of any or all of their Registrable Securities on Form S-3 or any similar short form registration
statement that may be available at such time ()"*Form S-3* "), or if the Company
is ineligible to use Form S-3, on Form S-1; a registration statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.3.1 (a "*Shelf* ")
shall provide for the resale of the Registrable Securities included therein pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available
to, and requested by, any Holder. Within five (5) days of the Company's receipt of a written request from a Holder or Holders of
Registrable Securities for a Registration on a Shelf, the Company shall promptly give written notice of the proposed Registration to all
other Holders of Registrable Securities, and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of
such Holder's Registrable Securities in such Registration on a Shelf shall so notify the Company, in writing, within ten (10) days
after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. As soon as practicable thereafter, but not more than twelve (12) days
after the Company's initial receipt of such written request for a Registration on Form S-3, the Company shall register all or such
portion of such Holder's Registrable Securities as are specified in such written request, together with all or such portion of Registrable
Securities of any other Holder or Holders joining in such request as are specified in the written notification given by such Holder or
Holders; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such Registration pursuant to <u>this subsection 2.3.1 if</u> the Holders of Registrable Securities, together with the Holders of any other equity securities of the Company
entitled to inclusion in such Registration, propose to sell the Registrable Securities and such other equity securities (if any) at any
aggregate price to the public of less than $10,000,000. The Company shall maintain each Shelf in accordance with the terms hereof, and
shall prepare and file with the SEC such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary to keep
such Shelf continuously effective, available for use and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there
are no longer any Registrable Securities included on such Shelf. In the event the Company files a Shelf on Form S-1, the Company shall
use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form S-1 to a Form S-3 as soon as practicable after the Company is eligible to
use Form S-3.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3.2 If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the
Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities included thereon are still outstanding, the Company shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable cause such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities
Act (including obtaining the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially
reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal
of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement (a "*Subsequent Shelf Registration*") registering the resale of all Registrable Securities including on such
Shelf, and pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, any Holder. If a Subsequent Shelf
Registration is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration to become
effective under the Securities Act as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf
Registration continuously effective, available for use and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as
there are no longer any Registrable Securities included thereon. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on Form S-3 to the extent
that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration shall be on another appropriate form. In
the event that any Holder holds Registrable Securities that are not registered for resale on a delayed or continuous basis, the Company,
upon request of a Holder shall promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the resale of such Registrable Securities to
be covered by either, at the Company's option, a Shelf (including by means of a post-effective amendment) or a Subsequent Shelf
Registration and cause the same to become effective as soon as practicable after such filing and such Shelf or Subsequent Shelf Registration
shall be subject to the terms hereof; provided, however, the Company shall only be required to cause such Registrable Securities to be
so covered once annually after inquiry of the Holders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3.3 At any time and from time to time after a Shelf has been declared effective
by the Commission, the Sponsor and Holders may request to sell all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in an underwritten offering
that is registered pursuant to the Shelf (each, an "*Underwritten Shelf Takedown* ");
provided that the Company shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include securities with
a total offering price (including piggyback securities and before deduction of underwriting discounts) reasonably expected to exceed,
in the aggregate, $10,000,000. All requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written notice to the Company at
least 48 hours prior to the public announcement of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, which shall specify the approximate number of Registrable
Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions)
of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. The Company shall include in any Underwritten Shelf Takedown the securities requested to be included
by any holder (each a "*Takedown Requesting Holder*") at least 24 hours prior
to the public announcement of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to written contractual piggyback registration rights of such holder
(including to those set forth herein). The Sponsor and Holders shall have the right to select the underwriter(s) for such offering (which
shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks), subject to the Company's prior approval which shall
not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to this <u>subsection 2.3.3</u> shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under <u>Section 2.1</u> hereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3.4 If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in
an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good faith, advises the Company, the Sponsor, Holders and the Takedown Requesting Holders (if any)
in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Sponsor and the Takedown Requesting Holders (if any) desire
to sell, taken together with all other Ordinary Shares or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, exceeds the Maximum
Number of Securities, then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown, as follows: (i) first, the Registrable Securities
of the Sponsor and the Holders that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities, determined Pro Rata based on the respective
number of Registrable Securities that each such Holder has so requested to be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown; (ii) second,
to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Ordinary Shares or other
equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iii) third,
to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Ordinary Shares
or other equity securities of the Takedown Requesting Holders, if any, that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities,
determined Pro Rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Takedown Requesting Holder has so requested to
be included in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3.5 The Sponsor and Holders shall have the right to withdraw from an Underwritten
Shelf Takedown for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of
its intention to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown prior to the public announcement of such Underwritten Shelf Takedown.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in
connection with an Underwritten Shelf Takedown prior to a withdrawal under this <u>subsection 2.3.5</u>.

2.4 <u>Restrictions on Registration Rights</u>. If (A) during the period
starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company's good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a
date one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of, a Company initiated Registration and provided that the Company has
delivered written notice to the Holders prior to receipt of a Demand Registration pursuant to <u>subsection 2.1.1</u> hereof and it continues
to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Registration Statement to become effective; (B) the
Holders have requested an Underwritten Registration and the Company and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters
to firmly underwrite the offer; or (C) in the good faith judgment of the Board such Registration would be seriously detrimental to the
Company and the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement at such time, then
in each case the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the Chairperson of the Board stating that in the good faith
judgment of the Board it would be seriously detrimental to the Company for such Registration Statement to be filed in the near future
and that it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement. In such event, the Company shall have the right
to defer such filing for a period of not more than thirty (30) days; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the Company shall not defer
its obligation in this manner more than once in any 12-month period.

2.5 <u>Legends.</u> In connection with any sale or other disposition of
the Registrable Securities by a Holder pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter
by the Commission) and upon compliance by the Holder with the requirements of this Section 2.5, if requested by the Holder, the Company
shall cause the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities (the "*Transfer Agent* ")
to remove any restrictive legends related to the book entry account holding such Registrable Securities and make a new, unlegended entry
for such book entry shares sold or disposed of without restrictive legends within two (2) trading days of any such request therefor from
the Holder; provided that the Company and the Transfer Agent have timely received from the Holder customary representations and other
documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Transfer Agent in connection therewith. Subject to receipt from the Holder
by the Company and the Transfer Agent of customary representations and other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Company and the
Transfer Agent in connection therewith, the Holder may request that the Company remove any legend from the book entry position evidencing
its Registrable Securities and the Company will, if required by the Transfer Agent, use its commercially reasonable efforts cause an opinion
of the Company's counsel be provided, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Transfer Agent, to the effect that the removal of such
restrictive legends in such circumstances may be effected under the Securities Act, following the earliest of such time as such Registrable
Securities (i) are subject to or have been or are about to be sold pursuant to an effective registration statement or (ii) have been or
are about to be sold pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission).
If restrictive legends are no longer required for such Registrable Securities pursuant to the foregoing, the Company shall, in accordance
with the provisions of this section and within two (2) trading days of any request therefor from the Holder accompanied by such customary
and reasonably acceptable representations and other documentation referred to above establishing that restrictive legends are no longer
required, deliver to the Transfer Agent irrevocable instructions that the Transfer Agent shall make a new, unlegended entry for such book
entry shares. The Company shall be responsible for the fees of its Transfer Agent, its legal counsel and all DTC fees associated with
such issuance.

time of such notice), or until he, she or it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed. If the
filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would require the
Company to make an Adverse Disclosure or would require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable
to the Company for reasons beyond the Company's control, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the
Holders, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time,
but in no event more than thirty (30) days, determined in good faith by the Company to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the
Company exercises its rights under the preceding sentence, the Holders agree to suspend, immediately upon their receipt of the notice
referred to above, their use of the Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities.
The Company shall immediately notify the Holders of the expiration of any period during which it exercised its rights under this <u>Section 3.4</u>.

3.5 <u>Reporting Obligations</u>. As long as any Holder shall own Registrable
Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to file timely (or obtain
extensions in respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date
hereof pursuant to <u>Sections 13(a)</u> or <u>15(d)</u> of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holders with true and complete
copies of all such filings. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request,
all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Ordinary Shares held by such Holder without registration under
the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor
rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission), including providing any legal opinions. Upon the request of any Holder, the Company shall
deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

**Article IV<br> indemnification and contribution**

4.1 <u>Indemnification.</u> 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent
permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers and directors and each person who controls such Holder (within the
meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including attorneys' fees) caused
by any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus
or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information furnished
in writing to the Company by such Holder expressly for use therein. The Company shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors
and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing
with respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable
Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably
requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify
the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act)
against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys' fees) resulting
from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment
thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein
not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished
in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several,
not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall
be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to such Registration
Statement. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person who controls
such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification
of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1.3 Any person entitled to indemnification herein
shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that
the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person's right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has
not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party's reasonable judgment a conflict of
interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume
the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying
party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not
be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying
party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between
such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the
consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects
by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement
does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from
all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1.4 The indemnification provided for under this Agreement
shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director
or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company and each Holder of Registrable
Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution
to such party in the event the Company's or such Holder's indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.1.5 If the indemnification provided under <u>Section 4.1</u> hereof from
the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute
to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to
state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying
party's and indemnified party's relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
action; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that the liability of any Holder under this <u>subsection 4.1.5</u> shall be limited to the amount
of the net proceeds received by such Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a
result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in <u>subsections 4.1.1</u>, <u>4.1.2</u> and <u>4.1.3</u> above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection
with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this <u>subsection 4.1.5</u> were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the
equitable considerations referred to in this <u>subsection 4.1.5</u>. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning
of <u>Section 11(f)</u> of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this <u>subsection 4.1.5</u> from any person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

4.2 <u>Waiver of Medallion Guaranty</u>. The Company agrees to use commercially
reasonable efforts to enter into an indemnification agreement in customary form, in favor of Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company
(or any successor transfer agent or warrant agent of the Company) in connection with the waiver of any requirement to provide a medallion
guarantee in connection with any Transfer of any equity securities of the Company by the Sponsor, the Representative or any of their Permitted
Transferees.

The Purchaser has agreed to purchase an aggregate of 475,000 Shares (or 497,500 in the aggregate if the over-allotment option in connection with the Public Offering is exercised in full) (the "***Private Placement Shares***").

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises contained in this Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties to this Agreement hereby, intending legally to be bound, agree as follows:

shall issue and sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, an aggregate of 475,000 Private Placement Shares
at a price of $10.00 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $4,750,000 (the "  ***Purchase Price*** "), which shall

accordance with the Company's wiring instructions. On the Initial Closing Date, upon the payment by the Purchaser of the Purchase
Price, the Company, at its option, shall deliver a certificate evidencing the Private Placement Shares purchased by the Purchaser on such

option in connection with the Public Offering or on such earlier time and date as may be mutually agreed by the Purchaser and the Company

Representations and Warranties of the Company.** As a material inducement to the Purchaser to enter into this Agreement and purchase the Private Placement Shares, the Company hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser (which representations and warranties shall survive the Closing Date) that:

by this Agreement and the Letter Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. <u>Authorization; No Breach</u>.

enumerated pursuant to Rule 506(d) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "  ***Securities Act*** ").

**Section 3. Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser.** As a material inducement to the Company to enter into this Agreement and issue and sell the Private Placement Shares to the Purchaser, the Purchaser hereby represents and warrants to the Company (which representations and warranties shall survive each Closing Date) that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A. <u>Organization and Requisite Authority</u>. The Purchaser possesses all requisite power and authority
necessary to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;B. <u>Authorization; No Breach</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) This Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance

relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or
law).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) (The execution and delivery by the Purchaser of this Agreement and the fulfillment of and compliance with
the terms hereof by the Purchaser does not and shall not as of each Closing Date conflict with or result in a breach by the Purchaser
of the terms, conditions or provisions of any agreement, instrument, order, judgment or decree to which the Purchaser is subject.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C. <u>Investment Representations</u>.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Purchaser is acquiring the Private Placement Shares (the "  ***Securities*** "),
for the Purchaser's own account, for investment purposes only and not with a view towards, or for resale in connection with, any
public sale or distribution thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) The Purchaser is an "accredited investor" as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation
D, and the Purchaser has not experienced a disqualifying event as enumerated pursuant to Rule 506(d) under the Securities Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) The Purchaser understands that the Securities are being offered and will be sold to it in reliance on
specific exemptions from the registration requirements of the United States federal and state securities laws and that the Company is
relying upon the truth and accuracy of, and the Purchaser's compliance with, the representations and warranties of the Purchaser
set forth herein in order to determine the availability of such exemptions and the eligibility of the Purchaser to acquire such Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The Purchaser did not decide to enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or general
advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) The Purchaser has been furnished with all materials relating to the business, finances and operations
of the Company and materials relating to the offer and sale of the Securities which have been requested by the Purchaser. The Purchaser
has been afforded the opportunity to ask questions of the executive officers and directors of the Company. The Purchaser understands that
its investment in the Securities involves a high degree of risk and it has sought such accounting, legal and tax advice as it has considered
necessary to make an informed investment decision with respect to the acquisition of the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) The Purchaser understands that no United States federal or state agency or any other government or governmental
agency has passed on or made any recommendation or endorsement of the Securities or the fairness or suitability of the investment in the
Securities by the Purchaser nor have such authorities passed upon or endorsed the merits of the offering of the Securities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) The Purchaser understands that: (a) the Securities have not been and are not being registered under the
Securities Act or any state securities laws, and may not be offered for sale, sold, assigned or transferred unless (1) subsequently registered
thereunder or (2) sold in reliance on an exemption therefrom; and (b) except as specifically set forth in the Registration Rights Agreement,
neither the Company nor any other person is under any obligation to register the Securities under the Securities Act or any state securities
laws or to comply with the terms and conditions of any exemption thereunder. While the Purchaser understands that Rule 144 is not available
for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers
that have been at any time previously a shell company, the Purchaser understands that Rule 144 includes an exception to this prohibition
if the following conditions are met: (i) the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;
(ii) the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the "  ***Exchange Act*** "); (iii) the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material
required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such
reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and (iv) at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current
Form 10 type information with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "  ***SEC***") reflecting its status
as an entity that is not a shell company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(viii) The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, knows of the high degree

Re: <u>Administrative Services and Indemnification Agreement</u>

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter agreement (this "***Agreement***") by and between Helix Acquisition Corp. III (the "***Company***") and Helix Holdings III LLC (the "***Sponsor***"), dated as of the date hereof, will confirm our agreement that, commencing on the date the securities of the Company are first listed on the Nasdaq Global Market (the "***Listing Date***"), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 and prospectus filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "***Registration Statement***") and continuing until the earlier of the consummation by the Company of an initial business combination ("***Business Combination***") or the Company's liquidation (in each case as described in the Registration Statement) (such earlier date hereinafter referred to as the "***Termination Date***"):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. The Sponsor shall make available, or cause to be made available, to the Company, at c/o Cormorant Asset
Management, LP, 200 Clarendon Street, 52nd Floor, Boston, Massachusetts 02116 (or any successor location), office space, utilities and
secretarial and administrative services as may be reasonably required by the Company. In exchange therefor, the Company shall pay the
Sponsor $6,458 per month on the Listing Date and continuing monthly thereafter until the Termination Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Sponsor, its directors, officers, employees, principals,
managers, partners, members, shareholders, equityholders, control persons, affiliates, agents, advisors, consultants and representatives
(the "Indemnitees") from any claims, losses, liabilities, obligations, causes of action, proceedings (whether pending or threatened),
investigations, damages, awards, settlements, judgments, decrees, fees, costs, penalties, amounts paid in settlement or expenses (including
interest, assessments and other charges in connection therewith and reasonable fees and disbursements of attorneys and other professional
advisors and costs of suit) arising out of or relating to any pending or threatened claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation against
any of them or in which any of them may be a participant or may otherwise be involved (including as a witness) that arises out of or relates
to (i) the Offering or the Company's operations or conduct of its business (including, for the avoidance of doubt, a Business Combination),
or (ii) any claim against the Sponsor alleging any expressed or implied management or endorsement by the Sponsor of any activities of
the Company or any express or implied association between the Sponsor, on the one hand, and the Company or any of its affiliates, on the
other hand. The Indemnitee will promptly notify the Company in writing of any indemnified claim, provided that failure or delay to give
such notice shall not relieve the Company of its indemnification obligations hereunder. The Company will, at its expense, undertake the
defense of such claim with attorneys of its own choosing reasonably satisfactory in all respects to such Indemnitee, subject to the right
of such Indemnitee to undertake such defense as hereinafter provided. An Indemnitee may participate in such defense with counsel of such
Indemnitee's choosing at the expense of the Company. In the event that the Company does not undertake the defense of any claim within
a reasonable time after such Indemnitee has given the notice thereof, or in the event that such Indemnitee shall in good faith determine
that the defense of any claim by the Company is inadequate or may conflict with the interest of any Indemnitee, such Indemnitee may, at
the expense of the Company and after giving notice to the Company of such action, undertake the defense of the claim and compromise or
settle the claim, all for the account of and at the risk of the Company. The Company shall pay all costs and expenses (including, without
limitation, attorneys' fees and costs of experts) incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with Indemnitee's defense of any
such claim promptly (and in any event within 10 days) after receipt of any statement therefor. In the defense of any claim against an
Indemnitee, the Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of such Indemnitee, consent to entry of any judgment or enter
into any settlement that includes any injunctive or other non-monetary relief or any payment of money by such Indemnitee, or that does
not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the person or persons asserting such claim to such Indemnitee of an unconditional
release from all liability on any of the matters that are the subject of such Claim and an acknowledgement that such Indemnitee denies
all wrongdoing in connection with such matters. The Company shall not be obligated to indemnify an Indemnitee against amounts paid in
settlement of a claim if such settlement is effected by such Indemnitee without the prior written consent of the Company, which shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If the indemnification provided for in this paragraph is for any reason not available to an Indemnitee
as a matter of law in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to herein, then, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee
therefor, the Company shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such losses, claims, damages or
liabilities (and expenses relating thereto) (a) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits to the Indemnitee,
on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, of the subject matter of this Agreement or (b) if the allocation provided by clause
(a) above is not available, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in such clause
(a) but also the relative fault of each of such Indemnitee and the Company, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary set forth herein or otherwise, the Company acknowledges and agrees that each Indemnitee shall be an express third-party
beneficiary of the provisions of this paragraph 2 and any related provision hereof that is or may extend rights to such Indemnitee. For
the avoidance of doubt, the Company's indemnification obligations contained in this paragraph 2 shall survive the Company's
consummation of a Business Combination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. The Sponsor hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title, interest, causes of action and claims
of any kind as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement (each, a "  ***Claim***") in or to, and any and all right
to seek payment of any amounts due to it out of, the trust account established for the benefit of the public shareholders of the Company
and into which substantially all of the proceeds of the Company's initial public offering will be deposited (the "  ***Trust Account*** "), and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim it may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement,
which Claim would reduce, encumber or otherwise adversely affect the Trust Account or any monies or other assets in the Trust Account,
and further agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction of any Claim against the Trust Account or any monies or
other assets in the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of its subject matter 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 Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived as to any particular provision, except by a written instrument executed by the parties hereto.

No party hereto may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other party. Any purported assignment in violation of this paragraph shall be void and ineffectual and shall not operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York for agreements made and to be wholly performed within such state, without regards to the conflicts of laws principles thereof.
