and 2(a) above, the Trustee shall take no action except as set forth in written instructions from the Company, confirmed
by telephone, in accordance with Section 3(a)), except for its gross negligence, fraud 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 (provided, that with
respect to its duties under Sections 1(i), 1(j), and 2(a) above, the Trustee shall take no action

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;

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

    4

     

    

 

6. Termination.
This Agreement shall terminate as follows:

 

(a)
If the Trustee gives written notice to the Company that it desires to resign under this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable
efforts to locate a successor trustee during which time the Trustee shall act in accordance with this Agreement. At such time that the
Company notifies the Trustee that a successor trustee has been appointed by the Company and has agreed to become subject to 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 (90) 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; or

 

(b)
At such time that the Trustee has completed the liquidation of the Trust Account in accordance with the provisions of Section
1(i) hereof, and distributed the Property in accordance with the provisions of the Termination Letter, this Agreement shall terminate
except with respect to Section 3(b) and Section 5.

 

7. Miscellaneous.

 

(a)
The Company and the Trustee will each restrict access to confidential information relating to funds being transferred to or from the
Trust Account to authorized persons. Each party must notify the other party immediately if it has reason to believe unauthorized persons
may have obtained access to such information, or of any change in its authorized personnel. In executing funds transfers, the Trustee
will rely upon all information supplied to it by the Company, including account names, account numbers, and all other identifying information
relating to a beneficiary, beneficiary’s bank, or intermediary bank. Except for any liability arising out of the Trustee’s
gross negligence, fraud, or willful misconduct, the Trustee shall not be liable for any loss, liability, or expense resulting from any
error in the information supplied to it or funds transferred based on such information.

 

(b)
This Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect
to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction. The parties hereto
consent to the jurisdiction and venue of any state or federal court located in the City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for purposes
of resolving any disputes hereunder. As to any claim, cross-claim, or counterclaim in any way relating to this Agreement, each party
waives the right to trial by jury.

 

(c)
This Agreement may be executed in several original or facsimile counterparts, each one of which shall constitute an original, and together
shall constitute but one instrument.

 

(d)
This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof. Except
for Sections 1(i) and 1(j) (which sections may not be modified, amended or deleted without the affirmative vote of a majority of the
then outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company; provided that no such amendment will affect any Public Stockholder who has otherwise
indicated his, her or its election to redeem his, her or its shares of Common Stock in connection with a vote sought to amend this Agreement),
this Agreement or any provision hereof may only be changed, amended or modified by a writing signed by each of the parties hereto; provided,
however, that no such change, amendment or modification may be made without the prior written consent of the Representative. The Trustee
may require from Company counsel an opinion as to the propriety of any proposed amendment.

 

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