		Re:	Administrative Services Agreement

 

Gentlemen:

 

This letter agreement
by and between Spartan Acquisition Corp. II (the “Company”) and Spartan Acquisition Sponsor II LLC (“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 New York Stock Exchange (the “Listing Date”), pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1 and prospectus
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Registration Statement”) and continuing until the earlier of
the consummation by the Company of an initial 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”):

 

(i) Sponsor
shall make available to the Company, at 9 West 57th Street, 43rd Floor, New York, NY, 10019 (or
any successor location of Sponsor), certain office space, utilities, secretarial support and administrative services as may be
reasonably required by the Company. In exchange therefor, the Company shall pay Sponsor the sum of $10,000 per month on the Listing
Date and continuing monthly thereafter until the Termination Date; and

 

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 letter
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 stockholders 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, 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 letter 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 letter 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 letter 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 letter agreement
constitutes the entire relationship of the parties hereto, and any litigation between the parties (whether grounded in contract,
tort, statute, law or equity) shall be governed by, construed in accordance with, and interpreted pursuant to the laws of the State
of New York, without giving effect to its choice of laws principles.

PRIVATE PLACEMENT WARRANTS PURCHASE AGREEMENT

 

THIS PRIVATE PLACEMENT
WARRANTS PURCHASE AGREEMENT, dated as of November 24, 2020 (as it may from time to time be amended, this “Agreement”),
is entered into by and between Spartan Acquisition Corp. II, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Spartan Acquisition
Sponsor II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Purchaser”).

 

WHEREAS, the Company
intends to consummate an initial public offering of the Company’s units (the “Public Offering”), each unit consisting
of one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Common Stock”), and one-half
of one redeemable warrant as set forth in the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1, filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), File Number 333-249430 (the “Registration Statement”), under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Common
Stock at an exercise price of $11.50 per share. The Purchaser has agreed to purchase an aggregate of 9,000,00 warrants (or up to
9,900,000 warrants if the over-allotment option in connection with the Public Offering is exercised in full) (the “Private
Placement Warrants”), each whole Private Placement Warrant entitling the holder to purchase one share of Common Stock at
an exercise price of $11.50 per 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

 

Section 1. Authorization,
Purchase and Sale; Terms of the Private Placement Warrants.

 

A. Authorization
of the Private Placement Warrants. The Company has duly authorized the issuance and sale of the Private Placement Warrants
to the Purchaser.

 

B. Purchase and
Sale of the Private Placement Warrants.

 

(i) On the date that
is one business day prior to the date of the consummation of the Public Offering or on such earlier time and date as may be mutually
agreed by the Purchaser and the Company (the “Initial Closing Date”), the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchaser,
and the Purchaser shall purchase from the Company, 9,000,000 Private Placement Warrants at a price of $1.00 per warrant for an
aggregate purchase price of $9,000,000 (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchaser shall pay the Purchase Price by wire
transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the Company’s wiring instructions. On the Initial Closing Date,
upon the payment by the Purchaser of the Purchase Price, the Company shall, at its option, deliver a certificate evidencing the
Private Placement Warrants purchased on such date duly registered in the Purchaser’s name to the Purchaser, or effect such
delivery in book-entry form.

 

     

     

    

 

(ii) On the date that
is one business day prior to the date of the consummation of the closing of the over-allotment 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 (each such date, an “Over-allotment
Closing Date”, and each Over-allotment Closing Date (if any) and the Initial Closing Date being sometimes referred to herein
as a “Closing Date”), the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser shall purchase from the
Company, up to 900,000 Private Placement Warrants, in the same proportion as the amount of the over-allotment option that is exercised,
at a price of $1.00 per warrant for an aggregate purchase price of up to $900,000 (if the over-allotment option in connection with
the Public Offering is exercised in full) (the “Over-allotment Purchase Price”). The Purchaser shall pay the Over-allotment
Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with the Company’s wiring instructions. On the
Over-allotment Closing Date, upon the payment by the Purchaser of the Over-allotment Purchase Price, the Company shall, at its
option, deliver a certificate evidencing the Private Placement Warrants purchased on such date duly registered in the Purchaser’s
name to the Purchaser, or effect such delivery in book-entry form. 

 

C. Terms of the
Private Placement Warrants.

 

(i) Each Private Placement
Warrant shall have the terms set forth in a Warrant Agreement to be entered into by the Company and a warrant agent, in connection
with the Public Offering (the “Warrant Agreement”).

Warrants will constitute valid and binding obligations of the Company, enforceable in accordance with their terms as of the Closing

C. Investment
Representations.

 

(i) The Purchaser is
acquiring the Private Placement Warrants and, upon exercise of the Private Placement Warrants, the shares of Common Stock 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 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) under the Securities Act.

 

(v) The Purchaser has

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

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; (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; and (c) Rule 144 adopted pursuant to the Securities Act will not be
available for resale transactions of Securities prior to a Business Combination and may not be available for resale transactions
of Securities after a Business Combination.

  

(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.
