agrees that it will not direct the Trustee to make any payments that are not specifically authorized by this Agreement.

 

(f)          If
the Company seeks to amend any provision of its Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association relating to shareholders’
rights or pre-Business Combination activity (including the time within which the Company has to complete a Business Combination)

(f)          The
other parties hereto or to anyone else for any action taken or omitted by it, or any action suffered by it to be taken or omitted,
in good faith and in the exercise of its own best judgment, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Trustee
may rely conclusively and shall be protected in acting upon any order, notice, demand, certificate, opinion or advice of counsel
(including counsel chosen by the Trustee), statement, instrument, report or other paper or document (not only as to its due execution
and the validity and effectiveness of its provisions, but also as to the truth and acceptability of any information therein contained)
which is believed by the Trustee, in good faith, to be genuine and to be signed or presented by the proper person or persons. The
Trustee shall not be bound by any notice or demand, or any waiver, modification, termination or rescission of this Agreement or
any of the terms hereof, unless evidenced by a written instrument delivered to the Trustee signed by the proper party or parties
and, if the duties or rights of the Trustee are affected, unless it shall give its prior written consent thereto;

(i)          Pay

2(a) hereof);

 

(j)          Imply
obligations, perform duties, inquire or otherwise be subject to the provisions of any agreement or document other than this agreement
and that, which is expressly set forth herein; and

 

(k)          Verify

5.           Trust
Account Waiver. The Trustee has no right of set-off or any right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”)
to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account, and hereby irrevocably waives any Claim to, or to any monies in, the Trust Account
that it may have now or in the future. In the event the Trustee has any Claim against the Company under this Agreement, including,
without limitation, under Section 3(b) or Section 3(c) hereof, the Trustee shall pursue such Claim solely against the Company
and its assets outside the Trust Account and not against the Property or any monies in the Trust Account

 

6.            Termination.

the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee shall transfer the management of the Trust Account to the successor trustee, including
but not limited to the transfer of copies of the reports and statements relating to the Trust Account, whereupon this Agreement
shall terminate; provided, however, that, in the event that the Company does not locate a successor trustee within ninety days
of receipt of the resignation notice from the Trustee, the Trustee may submit an application to have the Property deposited with
any court in the State of New York or with the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York and upon such
deposit, the Trustee shall be immune from any liability whatsoever for any events occurring or actions taken after such deposit;
or

 

(b)          At
such time that the Trustee has completed the liquidation of the Trust Account in accordance with the provisions of paragraph 1(i)
hereof, and distributed the Property in accordance with the provisions of the Termination Letter, this Agreement shall terminate
except with respect to Paragraph 3(b).

 

    	4

Company and the Trustee each acknowledge that the Trustee will follow the security procedures set forth below with respect to funds
transferred from the Trust Account. The Company and the Trustee will each restrict access to confidential information relating
to such security procedures to authorized persons. Each party must notify the other party immediately if it has reason to believe

Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except

is entered into by and between Electrum Special Acquisition Corporation, a British Virgin Islands company (the “Company”),

warrants in the aggregate (the “Private Placement Warrants”), at a price of $0.50 per warrant. Each Private Placement
Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one-half of one Share at an exercise price of $5.75 per half Share.

 

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:

Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to bankruptcy,

C.           Investment
Representations.

 

(i)          Pursuant
to Section 1 of this Agreement, the Purchaser is acquiring the Private Placement Warrants and, upon exercise of the Private Placement
Warrants, the Shares issuable upon such exercise (collectively, 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.

 

(ii)         The
Purchaser is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in Rule 501(a)(3) of Regulation D under the Securities
Act.

 

(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.

 

(iv)        The
Purchaser decided to enter into this Agreement not as a result of any general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning
of Rule 502(c) under the Securities Act.

 

(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.

 

(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.

 

(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. In this regard, the Purchaser understands
that the SEC has taken the position that promoters or affiliates of a blank check company and their transferees, both before and
after an initial business combination, are deemed to be “underwriters” under the Securities Act when reselling the
securities of a blank check company. Based on that position, Rule 144 adopted pursuant to the Securities Act would not be available
for resale transactions of the Securities despite technical compliance with the requirements of such Rule, and the Securities can
be resold only through a registered offering or in reliance upon another exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities
Act.

(viii)      The
Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters, knows of the high degree of risk associated with
investments in the securities of companies in the development stage such as the Company, is capable of evaluating the merits and
risks of an investment in the Securities and is able to bear the economic risk of an investment in the Securities in the amount
contemplated hereunder for an indefinite period of time. The Purchaser has adequate means of providing for its current financial
needs and contingencies and will have no current or anticipated future needs for liquidity which would be jeopardized by the investment
in the Securities. The Purchaser can afford a complete loss of its investment in the Securities.
