Placement Warrants); 
 WHEREAS, contemporaneously with the Parties’ execution and delivery of this Agreement, Acquiror, Merger Sub and
the Company have entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things,
Acquiror will domesticate as a Delaware corporation and Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger and as a wholly owned Subsidiary of Acquiror; and 

WHEREAS, as an inducement to Acquiror and the Company to enter into the Merger Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated
thereby, the Parties desire to agree to certain matters as set forth herein. 
 AGREEMENT 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the representations, warranties, covenants and agreements set forth herein, the Parties,
intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE I 

COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS 

Section 1.1 Forfeiture of Promote Shares and Private Placement Warrants. 

(a) Immediately prior to the Closing, the Sponsor will (and, subject only to the occurrence of the Closing, hereby does) irrevocably
surrender, forfeit and transfer to Acquiror, for no consideration and without any further right thereto, and consent to the termination and cancellation of, the Forfeited Promote Shares (and any other Equity Securities into which such Forfeited
Promote Shares may have been converted or for which such Forfeited Promote Shares may have been exchanged). 
 (b) Immediately prior to the
Closing, the Sponsor will (and, subject only to the occurrence of the Closing, hereby does) irrevocably surrender, forfeit and transfer to Acquiror, for no consideration and without any further right thereto, and consent to the termination and
cancellation of, the Forfeited Private Placement Warrants (and any other Equity Securities into which such Forfeited Private Placement Warrants may have been converted or for which such Forfeited Private Placement Warrants may have been exercised or
exchanged). 

 (c) Immediately prior to the Closing, the Sponsor will cause to be delivered and
surrendered to Acquiror for cancellation any stock certificates, warrant certificates or any similar instruments evidencing or representing any Forfeited Promote Share or Private Placement Warrants to be surrendered, forfeited, transferred,
terminated and cancelled pursuant to Section 1.1(a) or Section 1.1(b), as applicable. 

Section 1.2 Sponsor Earn-out. 

(a) The Sponsor hereby irrevocably agrees that, at (and subject only to the occurrence of) the Closing, the
Earn-out Promote Shares will become restricted shares and will be subject to the vesting and forfeiture provisions set forth in Section 1.2(d). 

(b) The Earn-out Promote Shares will be composed as follows: (i) 25% of the Earn-out Promote Shares will be subject to the vesting and forfeiture conditions specified in Section 1.2(d) (the “First Target Earn-out
Shares”), (ii) an additional 25% of the Earn-out Promote Shares will be subject to the vesting and forfeiture conditions specified in Section 1.2(d) (the “Second
Target Earn-out Shares”), (iii) an additional 25% of the Earn-out Promote Shares will be subject to the vesting and forfeiture conditions specified in
Section 1.2(d) (the “Third Target Earn-out Shares”) and (iv) the remaining 25% of the Earn-out Promote Shares will be
subject to the vesting and forfeiture conditions specified in Section 1.2(d) (the “Fourth Target Earn-out Shares”). 

(c) If the result of the product of (i) 25% multiplied by (ii) the total number of
Earn-out Promote Shares is not a whole number, then the number of Earn-out Promote Shares resulting from the product of (A) 4.00 multiplied by (B) the
fractional amount (rounded to the nearest thousandth when expressed in decimal form) of the fractional Earn-out Promote Share resulting from the calculation set forth in the introduction to this sentence will
be rounded down to the nearest whole number, and each such whole Earn-out Promote Share will be a First Target Earn-out Share. 

(d) The Earn-out Promote Shares will be subject to the following vesting conditions: 

(i) If, at any time during the Earn-out Period, the Acquiror Trading Price at any
point during the trading hours of a Trading Day is greater than or equal to $12.50 for any 20 Trading Days within any period of 30 consecutive Trading Days, the First Target Earn-out Shares will immediately
vest and no longer be subject to the forfeiture conditions provided in this Section 1.2. 
 (ii)
If, at any time during the Earn-out Period, the Acquiror Trading Price at any point during the trading hours of a Trading Day is greater than or equal to $15.00 for any 20 Trading Days within any period of 30
consecutive Trading Days, the Second Target Earn-out Shares will immediately vest and no longer be subject to the forfeiture conditions provided in this Section 1.2. 

  
 2 

 (iii) If, at any time during the
Earn-out Period, the Acquiror Trading Price at any point during the trading hours of a Trading Day is greater than or equal to $17.50 for any 20 Trading Days within any period of 30 consecutive Trading Days,
the Third Target Earn-out Shares will immediately vest and no longer be subject to the forfeiture conditions provided in this Section 1.2. 

(iv) If, at any time during the Earn-out Period, the Acquiror Trading Price at any
point during the trading hours of a Trading Day is greater than or equal to $20.00 for any 20 Trading Days within any period of 30 consecutive Trading Days, the Fourth Target Earn-out Shares will immediately
vest and no longer be subject to the forfeiture conditions provided in this Section 1.2. 
 (e) For the avoidance
of doubt, if the vesting conditions applicable to more than one of Section 1.2(d)(i), Section 1.2(d)(ii), Section 1.2(d)(iii) or
Section 1.2(d)(iv) have been satisfied at any time, then all of the Earn-out Promote Shares subject to such satisfied vesting conditions will immediately vest and no longer be subject
to the forfeiture conditions provided in this Section 1.2. Without limiting the foregoing, if the vesting condition set forth in Section 4.4(c)(i), Section 4.4(c)(ii), Section 4.4(c)(iii) or
Section 4.4(c)(iv) of the Merger Agreement is deemed met by the Company, then the corresponding vesting condition set forth in Section 1.2(d)(i), Section 1.2(d)(ii),
Section 1.2(d)(iii) or Section 1.2(d)(iv), respectively, shall also be deemed met. 

(f) If, upon the expiration of the Earn-out Period, the vesting of any of the Earn-out Promote Shares has not occurred, then the applicable Earn-out Promote Shares that failed to vest pursuant to Section 1.2(d), as applicable,
and any dividends or distributions previously paid or made in respect thereof will be automatically forfeited and transferred to Acquiror for no consideration, and no Person (other than Acquiror) will have any further right with respect thereto.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will the Sponsor be entitled to retain after the Earn-out Period an aggregate number of Earn-out Promote
Shares greater than the total number of Earn-out Promote Shares that has vested in accordance with Section 1.2(d) or Section 1.2(h). 

(g) If, during the Earn-out Period, the Acquiror Delaware Class A Shares outstanding as of
immediately following the Merger Effective Time shall have been changed into a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any Equity Adjustment, or any similar event shall have occurred, then the applicable Acquiror Trading Price
specified in each of Section 1.2(d)(i), Section 1.2(d)(ii), Section 1.2(d)(iii) and Section 1.2(d)(iv) will be equitably adjusted to reflect such
change. 
 (h) In the event that there is an Acquiror Sale during the Earn-out Period, then, to the
extent that the holders of Acquiror Delaware Class A Shares receive an Acquiror Sale Price that is greater than or equal to the applicable Acquiror Trading Price specified in Section 1.2(d)(i),
Section 1.2(d)(ii), Section 1.2(d)(iii) or Section 1.2(d)(iv) (subject to Section 1.2(g)) any Earn-out
Promote Shares that have not previously vested in accordance with Section 1.2(d)(i), Section 1.2(d)(ii), Section 1.2(d)(iii) or
Section 1.2(d)(iv), as applicable, will be deemed to have vested (to the extent that such Earn-out Promote Shares would have vested pursuant to
Section 1.2(d)(i), Section 1.2(d)(ii), Section 1.2(d)(iii) or Section 1.2(d)(iv), as applicable, if the Acquiror Trading Price had been the
Acquiror Sale Price for any 20 Trading Days within any period of 30 Trading Days during the Earn-out Period) immediately prior to the closing of such Acquiror Sale, and the holders of any Earn-out Promote Shares deemed vested pursuant to this Section 1.2(h) will be eligible to participate in such Acquiror Sale with respect to such
Earn-Out Promote Shares on the same terms, and subject to the same conditions, as the holders of Acquiror Delaware Class A Shares or Acquiror Delaware Class B Shares, as applicable, generally. 

(i) For so long as any Earn-out Promote Share remains subject to the vesting and forfeiture conditions
specified in Section 1.2(d), (i) the holder thereof will be entitled to exercise the voting rights carried by such Earn-out Promote Share and (ii) the holder thereof will not be
entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions in respect of such Earn-out Promote Share, and any dividends 

  
 3 

 
or distributions paid or made in respect of such Earn-out Promote Share will be retained by Acquiror and invested as and to the extent determined by
Acquiror and will be paid or made to the holder of such Earn-out Promote Share only when and to the extent that such Earn-out Promote Share vests in accordance with
Section 1.2(d), and, to the extent that such Earn-out Promote Share fails to vest in accordance with Section 1.2(d) prior to the expiration of the Earn-out Period, any dividends or distributions paid or made in respect thereof will be forfeited to Acquiror for no consideration, and no Person (other than Acquiror) will have any further right with respect
thereto. 
 Section 1.3 Restrictions on Transfer. 

(a) From the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the Closing or (ii) the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 3.3, the Sponsor (and any other Person to which any Promote Share or Private Placement Warrant is Transferred) shall not, directly or indirectly, Transfer any of the Promote Shares or Private Placement Warrants
legally or beneficially owned by it, other than (A) as required or expressly and affirmatively permitted by the Merger Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (including this Agreement) or (B) in accordance with
Section 1.4. In the event that the Sponsor (or any other Person to which any Promote Share or Private Placement Warrant is Transferred) Transfers any Promote Shares or Private Placement Warrants prior to the Closing,
Acquiror shall amend Schedule II hereto promptly thereafter (and, in any event, prior to the Closing) to reflect such Transfer. 

(b) From the Closing until the earlier of (i) the date that is one year following the Closing Date and (ii) the valid termination of
this Agreement pursuant to Section 3.3, the Sponsor (and each other Person to which any Promote Share is Transferred) shall not, directly or indirectly, Transfer any of the Promote Shares (including the Earn-out Promote Shares) legally or beneficially owned by it, other than in accordance with Section 1.4. For the avoidance of doubt, the restrictions set forth in this
Section 1.3(b) shall not apply to any Private Placement Warrants or to any Acquiror Delaware Class A Shares into which such Private Placement Warrants are converted or for which such Private Placement Warrants are
exercised or exchanged (including by reason of any Equity Adjustment). 
 (c) The Parties acknowledge and agree that
(i) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, all Promote Shares and Private Placement Warrants beneficially owned by the Sponsor (or any Person to which any Promote Share or Private Placement Warrant is Transferred) will remain subject
to any restrictions on Transfer under all applicable securities laws and all rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and (ii) any purported Transfer of any Promote Share or Private Placement Warrant in violation of this Agreement will be
null and void ab initio. 
 Section 1.4 Exceptions to Restrictions on Transfer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
in Section 1.3(a) or Section 1.3(b), each holder of Promote Shares or Private Placement Warrants will be permitted to Transfer Promote Shares or Private Placement Warrants:  
 (a) to any of Acquiror’s officers or directors; 

(b) if such holder is an individual, then (i) by will or other testamentary document or device or (ii) by operation of applicable
Law, including applicable Laws of intestacy or descent or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, divorce settlement, divorce decree, separation agreement or related court order; 

(c) as a bona fide gift or gifts, including to any charitable organization; 

(d) for bona fide estate planning purposes; 

  
 4 

 (e) to any Person of which all of the outstanding equity interests are legally and
beneficially owned by such holder or, if such holder is an individual, then to one or more members of the immediate family or former spouse of such holder; 

(f) if such holder is a Person other than an individual, then to another Person (other than an individual) that is an Affiliate of such
holder, or to any investment fund or other Person managing or managed by such holder or one or more of its Affiliates (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where such holder is a partnership, to its general partner); 

(g) if such holder is a Person other than an individual, then (i) to any shareholder, partner or member of such holder in redemption of
such shareholder’s, partner’s or member’s interest in such holder or (ii) upon such holder’s bona fide liquidation or dissolution, to the shareholders, partners or members of such holder in accordance with its Governing
Documents; or 
 (h) to a nominee or custodian of any Person to which a Transfer would be permissible under any of the preceding clauses
(a) through (g); 
 provided that (A) in the case of any Transfer pursuant to any of the foregoing clauses (b), (c), (d) and (h), such
Transfer does not involve a disposition for value and (B) in the case of any Transfer pursuant to any of the foregoing clauses (a), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (h), (1) the Person effecting such Transfer provides written notice of such Transfer
to Acquiror at least two Business Days prior to effecting such Transfer, (2) the Promote Shares or Private Placement Warrants so Transferred will remain subject to this Agreement, and, before such Transfer will be considered effective, the
Person to which such Promote Shares or Private Placement Warrants are to be Transferred will provide a written undertaking to each of Acquiror and the Company agreeing to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement as if such Person were
the Sponsor for all purposes hereunder and, to the extent that any of the Promote Shares legally or beneficially owned by the Sponsor as of the date hereof are so Transferred, agreeing to be bound to the terms and conditions of each of
Section 1.1 and Section 1.2 as if such Person were the Sponsor, (C) the Sponsor will file any public report or filing required to be made under applicable securities laws (including filings
under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act) to disclose such Transfer on a timely basis and (D) there will be no voluntary public disclosure or other voluntary announcement of such Transfer without the prior written consent of Acquiror. 

Section 1.5 Waiver of Anti-Dilution Provisions. The Sponsor hereby irrevocably waives (for itself and for its successors, heirs
and assigns), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law and the Governing Documents of Acquiror, any anti-dilution or other protection with respect to the Acquiror Cayman Class B Shares that would result in the Acquiror Cayman
Class B Shares converting into other Acquiror Shares in connection with any of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (including the Domestication, the PIPE Investment and the Merger) at a ratio greater
than one-for-one (including the provisions of Article 17 of Acquiror’s Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association). The waiver specified in this
Section 1.5 will be applicable only in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement (or any issuance of Equity Securities of Acquiror issued in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement) and will be void and of no force and effect if the Merger Agreement is validly terminated for any reason prior to the Closing. 

Section 1.6 Sponsor Support Agreements. 

(a) The Sponsor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees, solely in its capacity as a shareholder of Acquiror, that, unless this
Agreement has been validly terminated in accordance with Section 3.3, at any meeting of the shareholders of Acquiror (whether annual or special, however called and including any adjournment or postponement thereof), and in
connection with any written consent of shareholders of Acquiror, the Sponsor will, and will cause any other holder of record of any of the Sponsor’s voting Covered Securities: 

  
 5 

 (i) to appear at such shareholder meeting or otherwise cause the
Sponsor’s voting Covered Securities to be counted as present at such shareholder meeting for purposes of establishing a quorum; 

(ii) to vote, or cause to be voted, at such shareholder meeting (or, as applicable, validly execute and deliver and take all
other action necessary to grant legally effective consent to any action by written consent of the shareholders of Acquiror) all of the Sponsor’s voting Covered Securities owned as of the record date for such meeting (or, as applicable, the date
that any written consent is executed by the shareholders of Acquiror), in favor of (A) all of the Transaction Proposals and (B) the Acquiror Warrant Proposal; and 

(iii) to vote, or cause to be voted, at such shareholder meeting (or, as applicable, take all action necessary to withhold
consent to any action by written consent of the shareholders of Acquiror) all of the Sponsor’s voting Covered Securities owned as of the record date for such meeting (or, as applicable, the date that any written consent is executed by the
shareholders of Acquiror), against (A) any Business Combination Proposal and (B) any other action that would reasonably be expected to materially impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect any of the Transaction Proposals
or any other transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or result in any breach of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or other obligation of Acquiror or Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement or of
Acquiror, Merger Sub or the Sponsor under any Ancillary Agreement to which any of the foregoing is a party (including this Agreement). 
 The obligations of
the Sponsor specified in this Section 1.6(a) will apply whether or not any of the Transaction Proposals or, as applicable, the Acquiror Warrant Proposal is recommended by the Acquiror Board and whether or not the Acquiror
Board has previously recommended any of the Transaction Proposals or, as applicable, the Acquiror Warrant Proposal but changed such recommendation. 

(b) The Sponsor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees not to elect to redeem any Acquiror Cayman Ordinary Share in the Acquiror Share
Redemption or otherwise. 
 (c) From the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the Closing or (ii) the valid termination of this
Agreement pursuant to Section 3.3, the Sponsor and each Sponsor Principal will comply with and fully perform all of its covenants and agreements set forth in the Insider Letter, and neither the Sponsor nor any Sponsor
Principal shall amend, restate, supplement or otherwise modify, or cause Acquiror to amend, restate, supplement or otherwise modify or waive, any provision of the Insider Letter without the prior written consent of the Company. 

(d) From the date hereof until the earlier of (i) the Closing or (ii) the valid termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 3.3, the Sponsor will, subject to any restrictions contained in its Governing Documents, advance funds to Acquiror as and when necessary to financing working capital or costs incurred in connection with the
transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements. 

  
 6 

 Section 1.7 Further Assurances. From time to time, at the Company’s or
Acquiror’s request and for no additional consideration, the Sponsor will execute and deliver such additional documents and use commercially reasonable efforts to take all such further action as may be reasonably necessary or reasonably
requested by Acquiror or the Company to effect the actions and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Merger Agreement and each other Ancillary Agreement to which the Sponsor is a party. For clarity, the preceding sentence
shall not require the Sponsor to pay any monetary amount or make any financial accommodation or concession. The Sponsor further agrees not to commence or participate (in a manner adverse to Acquiror, the Company or any of their respective Related
Persons) in, and agrees to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any Action, derivative or otherwise, against Acquiror, the Company or any of their respective Related Persons, relating to the
negotiation, execution or delivery of the Merger Agreement, any of the Ancillary Agreements or any of the transactions contemplated thereby (including any Action (a) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin the operation of, any
provision of the Merger Agreement or any of the Ancillary Agreements or (b) alleging a breach of any fiduciary duty of the Acquiror Board in connection with this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, any other Ancillary Agreement or any of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement shall limit or restrict the ability of the Sponsor to enforce its rights under this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement
to which such Person is a party or seek any other remedies with respect to any breach of this Agreement or such other Ancillary Agreement by any other party hereto or thereto, including by commencing any Action in connection therewith. 

Section 1.8 No Inconsistent Agreement. The Sponsor hereby represents and covenants that the Sponsor has not entered into, and will
not enter into, any agreement that would restrict, limit or interfere with the performance of the Sponsor’s obligations hereunder. 

Section 1.9 Permitted Disclosure. The Sponsor hereby authorizes each of the Company and Acquiror to publish and disclose, in any
announcement, filing or disclosure required to be made by any Governmental Order or other applicable Law or the rules of any national securities exchange or as requested by the SEC, the Sponsor’s identity and ownership of Covered Securities and
the Sponsor’s obligations under this Agreement. 
 Section 1.10 Disclosure; Public Announcements. Neither Acquiror nor the
Company shall publish or disclose in any announcement, filing or disclosure the Sponsor’s identity or ownership of Equity Securities of Acquiror or the nature of the Sponsor’s obligations under this Agreement unless such publication or
disclosure is required to be made by any Governmental Order or other applicable Law or the rules of any national securities exchange or as requested by the SEC. For a period of two years following the Closing, neither the Sponsor nor any Sponsor
Principal shall, or shall permit any of its Affiliates to, issue any press release or make any other public announcement or public statement with respect to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, any other Ancillary Agreement or any of the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (each, a “Public Communication”), without the prior written consent of each of Acquiror and the Company (which consent may be withheld in Acquiror’s or the Company’s sole
discretion), except (a) as required by applicable Law or any Governmental Authority (including pursuant to any court process), in which case the Sponsor or such Sponsor Principal shall provide Acquiror and the Company and their respective legal
counsel with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such Public Communication (solely with respect to such portions that relate to this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, any other Ancillary Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby
or thereby) in advance of its issuance and shall give reasonable and good faith consideration to any such comments or (b) with respect to a Public Communication that is consistent with prior disclosures by Acquiror and the Company. 

  
 7

(B) initiate, solicit, enter into or continue discussions, negotiations or transactions with, or encourage or respond to any inquiries or proposals by, any Person with respect to a Business Combination Proposal (other than to inform such Person
of the Sponsor’s obligations pursuant to this Section 1.11(a)) or (C) enter into any acquisition agreement, business combination agreement, merger agreement or similar definitive agreement, or any letter of
intent, memorandum of understanding or agreement in principle, or any other agreement relating to a Business Combination Proposal, in each case, other than to or with the Company and its Representatives. From and after the date hereof, the Sponsor
will, and will instruct and cause its Representatives, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives to, immediately cease and terminate all discussions and negotiations with any Persons that may be ongoing with respect to a Business
Combination Proposal (other than the Company and its Representatives). 
 (b) From the date hereof until the valid termination of this
Agreement, the Sponsor will use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions and to do, or cause to be done, all things reasonably necessary to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein (provided that this sentence will not require the Sponsor to pay any monetary amount or make any financial accommodation or concession), and will not take

 ARTICLE II 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

Section 2.1 Representations and Warranties of the Sponsor. The Sponsor (and, solely with respect to
Section 2.1(f), each Sponsor Principal) represents and warrants to Acquiror and the Company (solely with respect to itself, himself or herself and not, in the case of the Sponsor, with respect to any Sponsor Principal or,
in the case of any Sponsor Principal, with respect to any other Sponsor Principal) as follows: 

  
 8 

 (a) Organization; Due Authorization. The Sponsor is duly organized, validly existing
and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, formed, organized or constituted, and the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby are
within the Sponsor’s corporate or other organizational powers and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational actions on the part of the Sponsor. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the
Sponsor and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other Parties, this Agreement constitutes a legally valid and binding obligation of the Sponsor, enforceable against the Sponsor in accordance with the terms hereof (except as
enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy Laws, other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights and general principles of equity affecting the availability of specific performance and other equitable remedies). 

(b) Ownership. As of the date hereof, the Sponsor is the sole holder of record and beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of, and has good title to, the number of the Acquiror Shares and the number of Acquiror Warrants set forth opposite the Sponsor’s name in the columns titled
“Acquiror Shares” and “Acquiror Warrants,” respectively, in Schedule II hereto (such Acquiror Shares and such Acquiror Warrants, collectively, the Sponsor’s “Owned Securities”), and there exists no
Lien or any other limitation or restriction affecting any of such Owned Securities (including any restriction on the right to vote, sell or otherwise dispose of any of such Owned Securities), other than pursuant to (i) this Agreement,
(ii) Acquiror’s Governing Documents, (iii) the Merger Agreement, (iv) the Insider Letter or (v) applicable securities Laws. As of the date hereof, the Sponsor does not own of record or beneficially (or have any right, option
or warrant to acquire) any Equity Security of Acquiror (or any indebtedness convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for any Equity Security of Acquiror) or any interest therein, other than the Sponsor’s Owned Securities. Except pursuant
to this Agreement, the Sponsor’s Owned Securities are not subject to any proxy, voting trust or other agreement or arrangement with respect to the voting of such Owned Securities. 

(c) No Conflicts. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Sponsor does not, and the performance by the Sponsor of its
obligations hereunder will not, (i) conflict with or result in a violation of the Governing Documents of the Sponsor or (ii) require any consent, waiver or approval that has not been given or other action that has not been taken by any
Person (including under any Contract binding upon the Sponsor or the Sponsor’s Covered Securities), the absence of which consent, waiver or approval, or omission of which action, would prevent, enjoin or materially delay the performance by the
Sponsor of its obligations under this Agreement. 
 (d) Litigation. There is no Action pending against the Sponsor or, to the
knowledge of the Sponsor, threatened against the Sponsor that challenges all or any part of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, or that seeks to, or would reasonably be expected to, prevent, enjoin or materially delay the

of the Acquiror Disclosure Letter, no financial advisor, investment banker, broker, finder or other similar intermediary is entitled to any fee or commission in connection with the Merger Agreement, this Agreement or any other Ancillary Agreement,

Subsidiaries would have any obligation. 
 (f) Affiliate Arrangements. Except as disclosed in the prospectus, dated February 23,
2021, filed in connection with the Acquiror’s initial public offering, neither the Sponsor or Sponsor Principal nor any of its Affiliates or any member of its immediate family (i) is party to, or has any rights with respect to or arising
from, any material Contract with Acquiror or any of its Subsidiaries or (ii) 

  
 9 

 
is (or will be) entitled to receive from Acquiror, the Company or any of their respective Subsidiaries any finder’s fee, reimbursement, consulting fee, monies or consideration in the form of
equity in respect of any repayment of a loan or other compensation prior to, or in connection with, any services rendered in order to effectuate the consummation of Acquiror’s initial Business Combination (regardless of the type or form of such
transaction, but including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Merger). 
 (g) Acknowledgment. The Sponsor has read this Agreement and
has had the opportunity to consult with its tax, legal and other advisors regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Sponsor understands and acknowledges that the Company’s willingness to enter into the Merger
