REGISTRATIONS

 

2.1
Demand Registration.

 

2.1.1
Request for Registration. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.1.4 and Section 2.4 hereof, at any
time and from time to time on or after the date the Company consummates the initial Business Combination, the Holders of at least
thirty percent (30%) in interest of the then outstanding number of Registrable Securities (the “Demanding Holders”)
may make a written demand for Registration under the Securities Act of all or part of their Registrable Securities, which written
demand shall describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such Registration and the intended method(s) of distribution
thereof (such written demand a “Demand Registration”). The Company shall, within ten (10) days of the
Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration, notify, in writing, all other Holders of Registrable Securities of such demand,
and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable
Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration (each such Holder that includes all or a portion of such Holder’s
Registrable Securities in such Registration, a “Requesting Holder”) shall so notify the Company, in writing,
within five (5) days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company. Upon receipt by the Company of any such
written notification from a Requesting Holder(s) to the Company, such Requesting Holder(s) shall be entitled to have their Registrable
Securities included in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration and the Company shall effect, as soon thereafter as practicable,
the Registration of all Registrable Securities requested by the Demanding Holder(s) and Requesting Holder(s) pursuant to such
Demand Registration, including by filing a Registration Statement relating thereto as soon as practicable, but not more than forty
five (45) days immediately after the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration. Under no circumstances shall the
Company be obligated to effect more than an aggregate of three (3) Registrations pursuant to a Demand Registration under
this subsection 2.1.1 with respect to any or all Registrable Securities; provided, however, that a Registration
shall not be counted for such purposes unless a Form S-1 or any similar long-form registration statement that may be available
at such time (“Form S-1”) has become effective and all of the Registrable Securities requested by the Requesting
Holders to be registered on behalf of the Requesting Holders in such Form S-1 Registration have been sold, in accordance with
Section 3.1 of this Agreement.

 

    5

     

    

 

2.1.2
Effective Registration. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2.1.1 above or any other part of this Agreement,
a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration shall not count as a Registration unless and until (i) the Registration
Statement filed with the Commission with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration has been declared effective
by the Commission and (ii) the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto;
provided, further, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, an offering of Registrable
Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration is subsequently interfered with by any stop order or injunction
of the Commission, federal or state court or any other governmental agency the Registration Statement with respect to such Registration
shall be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded
or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Demand Registration thereafter
affirmatively elect to continue with such Registration and accordingly notify the Company in writing, but in no event later than
five (5) days, of such election; provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated or required to
file another Registration Statement until the Registration Statement that has been previously filed with respect to a Registration
pursuant to a Demand Registration becomes effective or is subsequently terminated.

 

2.1.3
Underwritten Offering. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.1.4 and Section 2.4 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 subsection 2.1.3 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.

 

2.1.4
Reduction of Underwritten Offering. 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 shares of Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell and
the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which a Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back
registration rights held by any other stockholders 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) 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 Common Stock 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 Common Stock or other equity securities of other persons or entities that
the Company is obligated to register in a Registration pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons
and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

 

    6

     

    

 

2.1.5
Demand Registration Withdrawal. 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 subsection 2.1.1 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 (or in the case of an Underwritten Registration pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, at
least two business days prior to the time of pricing of the applicable offering). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement, (i) the Company may effect any Underwritten Registration pursuant to any then effective Registration Statement,
including a Form S-3, that is then available for such offering and (ii) 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 subsection
2.1.5.

 

2.2
Piggyback Registration.

 

2.2.1
Piggyback Rights. If, at any time on or after the date the Company consummates an initial 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 stockholders of the Company (or by the Company and by the stockholders of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant
to Section 2.1 hereof), other than a Registration Statement (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other
benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing stockholders, (iii) for
an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company or (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan, then
the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable
but 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 subsection 2.2.1 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 subsection 2.2.1 shall
enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the
Company.

 

    7

     

    

 

2.2.2
Reduction of Piggyback Registration. 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 shares of the Common Stock that the Company desires
to sell, taken together with (i) the shares of Common Stock, 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 Section 2.2 hereof, and
(iii) the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual
piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, exceeds the Maximum Number of Securities, then:

 

(a)  
If the Registration is undertaken for the Company’s account, the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first,
the shares of Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, 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 subsection 2.2.1 hereof, pro rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder
has so requested exercising its rights to register its Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 hereof, which
can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities
has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the shares of Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration
has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggy-back registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, which
can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;

 

(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 shares of Common Stock 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 subsection 2.2.1, pro rata, based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has requested
be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Holders have requested
to be included in such Underwritten 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 shares
of Common Stock 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 reached under the foregoing
clauses (A), (B) and (C), the shares of Common Stock or other equity securities for the account of other persons or entities

2.2.3
Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. 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 (or in the case of an Underwritten Registration
pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act, at least two business days prior to the time of pricing of the applicable offering).
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 subsection 2.2.3.

 

2.2.4
Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.2
hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.1 hereof.

 

2.3
Shelf Registrations.

 

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 three (3) 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 shall so notify the Company, in writing, within three (3) days after the receipt by the Holder
of the notice from the Company. As soon as practicable thereafter, but not more than ten (10) days after the Company’s
initial receipt of such written request for a Registration on a Shelf, 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; provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to effect any such Registration pursuant
to this subsection 2.3.1 if 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 $5,000,000. The Company shall maintain each Shelf in accordance with
the terms hereof, and shall prepare and file with the Commission 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.

 

    9

     

    

 

2.4
Restrictions on Registration Rights. 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 subsection 2.1.1 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 Chairman of the Board, the
Chief Executive Officer, the President or the Secretary of the Company 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; provided, however, that the Company shall not defer its obligation
in this manner more than once in any 12-month period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the
Company shall not be required to effect or permit any Registration or cause any Registration Statement to become effective, with
respect to any Registrable Securities held by any Holder, until after the expiration of the Founder Shares Lock-Up Period or the
Private Placement Lock-Up Period, as the case may be.

3.1
General Procedures. If at any time on or after the date the Company consummates an initial Business Combination, the Company
is required to effect the Registration of Registrable Securities, the Company shall use its best efforts to effect such Registration
to permit the sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended plan of distribution thereof, and pursuant thereto
the Company shall, as expeditiously as possible:

 

3.1.1
prepare and file with the Commission as soon as practicable a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Securities
and use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registration Statement to become effective and remain effective until all Registrable
Securities covered by such Registration Statement have been sold;

 

    10

     

    

 

3.1.2
prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement, and such supplements
to the Prospectus, as may be reasonably requested by the majority-in-interest of the Holders with Registrable Securities registered
on such Registration Statement or any Underwriter of Registrable Securities or as may be required by the rules, regulations or
instructions applicable to the registration form used by the Company or by the Securities Act or rules and regulations thereunder
to keep the Registration Statement effective until all Registrable Securities covered by such Registration Statement are sold
in accordance with the intended plan of distribution set forth in such Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus;

 

3.1.3
prior to filing a Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish without charge to the
Underwriters, if any, and the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration, and such Holders’ legal counsel,
copies of such Registration Statement as proposed to be filed, each amendment and supplement to such Registration Statement (in
each case including all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein), the Prospectus included in such Registration
Statement (including each preliminary Prospectus), and such other documents as the Underwriters and the Holders of Registrable
Securities included in such Registration or the legal counsel for any such Holders may request in order to facilitate the disposition
of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holders;

 

3.1.4
prior to any public offering of Registrable Securities, use its best efforts to (i) register or qualify the Registrable Securities
covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or “blue sky” laws of such jurisdictions in the
United States as the Holders of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement (in light of their intended plan
of distribution) may request and (ii) take such action necessary to cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration
Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue of the business
and operations of the Company and do any and all other acts and things that may be necessary or advisable to enable the Holders
of Registrable Securities included in such Registration Statement to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities
in such jurisdictions; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to qualify generally to do business
in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or take any action to which it would be subject to general
service of process or taxation in any such jurisdiction where it is not then otherwise so subject;

 

3.1.5
cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange or automated quotation system on which similar
securities issued by the Company are then listed;

 

    11

     

    

 

3.1.6
provide a transfer agent or warrant agent, as applicable, and registrar for all such Registrable Securities no later than the
effective date of such Registration Statement;

 

3.1.7
advise each seller of such Registrable Securities, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the
issuance of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of such Registration Statement or the initiation or
threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop
order or to obtain its withdrawal if such stop order should be issued;

 

3.1.8
at least five (5) days prior to the filing of any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to
such Registration Statement or Prospectus, furnish a copy thereof to each seller of such Registrable Securities or its counsel;

 

3.1.9
notify the Holders at any time when a Prospectus relating to such Registration Statement is required to be delivered under the
Securities Act, of the happening of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement, as
then in effect, includes a Misstatement, and then to correct such Misstatement as set forth in Section 3.4 hereof;

 

3.1.10
permit a representative of the Holders, the Underwriters, if any, and any attorney or accountant retained by such Holders or Underwriter
to participate, at each such person’s own expense, in the preparation of the Registration Statement, and cause the Company’s
officers, directors and employees to supply all information reasonably requested by any such representative, Underwriter, attorney
or accountant in connection with the Registration; provided, however, that such representatives or Underwriters
enter into a confidentiality agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, prior to the release or
disclosure of any such information;

 

3.1.11
obtain a “cold comfort” letter from the Company’s independent registered public accountants in the event of
an Underwritten Registration, in customary form and covering such matters of the type customarily covered by “cold comfort”
letters as the managing Underwriter may reasonably request, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority-in-interest of the participating
Holders;

 

3.1.12
on the date the Registrable Securities are delivered for sale pursuant to such Registration, obtain an opinion, dated such date,
of counsel representing the Company for the purposes of such Registration, addressed to the Holders, the placement agent or sales
agent, if any, and the Underwriters, if any, covering such legal matters with respect to the Registration in respect of which
such opinion is being given as the Holders, placement agent, sales agent, or Underwriter may reasonably request and as are customarily
included in such opinions and negative assurance letters, and reasonably satisfactory to a majority in interest of the participating
Holders;

 

3.1.13
in the event of any Underwritten Offering, enter into and perform its obligations under an underwriting agreement, in usual and
customary form, with the managing Underwriter of such offering;

 

    12

     

    

 

3.1.14
make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement covering the period of at least
twelve (12) months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date
of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder
(or any successor rule promulgated thereafter by the Commission);

 

3.1.15
if the Registration involves the Registration of Registrable Securities involving gross proceeds in excess of $25,000,000, use
its reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Company to participate in customary “road show”
presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter in any Underwritten Offering; and

 

3.1.16
otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders,
in connection with such Registration.

 

3.2
Registration Expenses. The Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by the Company. It is acknowledged
by the Holders that the Holders shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such
as Underwriters’ commissions and discounts, brokerage fees, Underwriter marketing costs and, other than as set forth in
the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all reasonable fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing
the Holders.

 

3.3
Requirements for Participation in Underwritten Offerings. No person may participate in any Underwritten Offering for equity
securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such person (i) agrees to
sell such person’s securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements approved by the Company and (ii) completes
and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements, underwriting agreements and other
customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting arrangements.

 

3.4
Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement
or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, each of the Holders shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until
he, she or it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that
the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such supplement or amendment as soon as practicable after the 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 ninety (90) days in any 12-month period, 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 Section 3.4.

 

    13

     

    

 

3.5
Reporting Obligations. 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 Sections 13(a)
or 15(d) 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 shares of the Common Stock 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.

INDEMNIFICATION
AND CONTRIBUTION

 

4.1
Indemnification.

 

4.1.1
The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, each Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors
and agents and each person who controls such Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages,
liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation reasonable outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from
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
or affidavit so 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.

 

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,
officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims,
damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation reasonable outside attorneys’ fees) resulting
from 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, 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; provided,
however, 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.

 

    14

     

    

 

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 he, she or 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 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.

 

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.

 

4.1.5
If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient
to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket 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 out-of-pocket 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; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this
subsection 4.1.5 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 subsections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any
legal or other fees, charges or out-of-pocket 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 subsection
4.1.5 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 subsection 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning
of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any
person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

		RE:	Securities Subscription Agreement

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Rosecliff Acquisition Corp I, a Delaware corporation
(the “Company”), is pleased to accept the offer Rosecliff Acquisition Sponsor I LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company (the “Subscriber” or “you”), has made to subscribe for 5,750,000 shares of Class B
common stock (the “Shares”), $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (the “Class B Shares”),
up to 750,000 of which are subject to forfeiture by you if the underwriters of the Company’s initial public offering of its
securities (“IPO”), if any, do not fully exercise their over-allotment option (the “Over-allotment
Option”). For the purposes of this agreement (this “Agreement”), references to “Common Stock”
are to, collectively, the Class B Shares and the Company’s shares of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the
“Class A Shares”). Upon certain terms and conditions, the Class B Shares will automatically convert into Class
A Shares on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. Unless the context otherwise requires, as used herein “Shares”
shall be deemed to include any Class A Shares issued upon conversion of the Class B Shares comprising the Shares. The terms on
which the Company is willing to issue the Shares to the Subscriber, and the Company and the Subscriber’s agreements regarding
such Shares, are as follows:

 

1. 
Subscription of Shares.

 

For the sum of $25,000, which the Company acknowledges
receiving in cash, the Company hereby issues the Shares to the Subscriber, and the Subscriber hereby subscribes for the Shares
from the Company, subject to forfeiture, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Concurrently with
the Subscriber’s execution of this Agreement, the Company shall effect the delivery of the Shares in book-entry form.

 

2. 
Representations, Warranties and Agreements.

 

2.1 
Subscriber’s Representations, Warranties and Agreements. To induce the Company to issue the Shares to the Subscriber,
the Subscriber hereby represents and warrants to the Company and agrees with the Company as follows:

 

2.1.1 
No Government Recommendation or Approval. The Subscriber understands that no federal or state agency has passed upon or
made any recommendation or endorsement of the offering of the Shares.

 

     

     

    

 

2.1.2 
No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by the Subscriber of the transactions
contemplated hereby do not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) the limited liability company agreement
of the Subscriber, (ii) any agreement, indenture or instrument to which the Subscriber is a party or (iii) any law, statute,
rule or regulation to which the Subscriber is subject, or any agreement, order, judgment or decree to which the Subscriber is subject.

 

2.1.3 
Formation, Registration and Authority. The Subscriber is a Delaware limited liability company formed and registered, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and possesses all requisite power and authority necessary
to carry out the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Upon execution and delivery by you, this Agreement is a legal, valid
and binding agreement of the Subscriber, enforceable against the Subscriber in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability
may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’
rights generally and subject to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding at law
or in equity).

 

2.1.4 
Experience, Financial Capability and Suitability. The Subscriber is (i) sophisticated in financial matters and is able
to evaluate the risks and benefits of the investment in the Shares and (ii) able to bear the economic risk of its investment
in the Shares for an indefinite period of time because the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act (as defined
below) and therefore cannot be sold unless such transaction is registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration
is available. The Subscriber is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of its investment in the Company and has the capacity
to protect its own interests. The Subscriber must bear the economic risk of this investment until the Shares are sold pursuant
to (i) an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or (ii) an exemption from registration available with
respect to such sale. The Subscriber is able to bear the economic risks of an investment in the Shares and to afford a complete
loss of the Subscriber’s investment in the Shares.

 

2.1.5 
Access to Information; Independent Investigation. Prior to the execution of this Agreement, the Subscriber has had the opportunity
to ask questions of and receive answers from representatives of the Company concerning an investment in the Company, as well as
the finances, operations, business and prospects of the Company, and the opportunity to obtain additional information to verify
the accuracy of all information so obtained. In determining whether to make this investment, the Subscriber has relied solely on
the Subscriber’s own knowledge and understanding of the Company and its business based upon the Subscriber’s own due
diligence investigation and the information furnished pursuant to this paragraph. The Subscriber understands that no person has
been authorized to give any information or to make any representations which were not furnished pursuant to this Section 2, and
the Subscriber has not relied on any other representations or information in making its investment decision, whether written or
oral, relating to the Company, its operations and/or its prospects.

 

    2

     

    

  

2.1.6 
Private Placement. The Subscriber represents that it is an “accredited investor” as such term is defined in
Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and acknowledges
the sale contemplated hereby is being made in reliance on a private placement exemption applicable to “accredited investors”
within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act or similar exemptions under state law.

 

2.1.7 
Investment Purposes. The Subscriber is purchasing and subscribing for the Shares solely for investment purposes, for the
Subscriber’s own account and not for the account or benefit of any other person, and not with a view towards the distribution
or dissemination thereof. The Subscriber did not decide to enter into this Agreement as a result of any general solicitation or
general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502 of Regulation D under the Securities Act.

 

2.1.8 
Restrictions on Transfer; Shell Company. The Subscriber understands the Shares are being offered in a transaction not involving
a public offering within the meaning of the Securities Act. The Subscriber understands the Shares will be “restricted securities”
within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Securities Act, and the Subscriber understands that the book-entries representing
the Shares will contain a legend or notation in respect of such restrictions. If in the future the Subscriber decides to offer,
resell, pledge or otherwise transfer the Shares, such Shares may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only pursuant
to (i) registration under the Securities Act or (ii) an available exemption from registration. The Subscriber agrees that if any
transfer of its Shares or any interest therein is proposed to be made, as a condition precedent to any such transfer, the Subscriber
may, at the Company’s option, be required to deliver to the Company an opinion of counsel satisfactory to the Company. Absent
registration or an exemption, the Subscriber agrees not to resell the Shares. The Subscriber further acknowledges that because
the Company is a shell company, Rule 144 may not be available to the Subscriber for the resale of the Shares until at least one
year following consummation of the initial business combination of the Company (which may not occur), despite technical compliance
with the requirements of Rule 144 and the release or waiver of any contractual transfer restrictions.

 

2.1.9 
No Governmental Consents. No governmental, administrative or other third party consents or approvals are required, necessary
or appropriate on the part of the Subscriber in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

2.2 
Company’s Representations, Warranties and Agreements. To induce the Subscriber to purchase the Shares, the Company
hereby represents and warrants to the Subscriber and agrees with the Subscriber as follows:

 

2.2.1 
Incorporation and Corporate Power. The Company is a Delaware corporation and is qualified to do business in every jurisdiction
in which the failure to so qualify would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, operating
results or assets of the Company. The Company possesses all requisite corporate power and authority necessary to carry out the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

    3

     

    

 

2.2.2 
No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the consummation by the Company of the transactions
contemplated hereby do not violate, conflict with or constitute a default under (i) the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation
or Bylaws, as amended to the date hereof (collectively, the “Organizational Documents”), (ii) any agreement,
indenture or instrument to which the Company is a party or (iii) any law, statute, rule or regulation to which the Company
is subject, or any agreement, order, judgment or decree to which the Company is subject.

 

2.2.3 
Title to Shares. Upon issuance in accordance with, and payment pursuant to, the terms hereof and the Organizational Documents,
the Shares will be duly and validly issued as fully paid and non-assessable. Upon issuance in accordance with, and payment pursuant
to, the terms hereof and the Organizational Documents, the Subscriber will have or receive good title to the Shares, free and clear
of all liens, claims and encumbrances of any kind, other than (i) transfer restrictions hereunder and under the other agreements
to which the Shares may be subject, (ii) transfer restrictions under federal and state securities laws, and (iii) liens, claims
or encumbrances imposed due to the actions of the Subscriber.

 

2.2.4 
No Adverse Actions. There are no actions, suits, investigations or proceedings pending, threatened against or affecting
the Company which (i) seek to restrain, enjoin, prevent the consummation of or otherwise affect the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement or (ii) question the validity or legality of any transactions or seek to recover damages or to obtain other relief
in connection with any transactions.

 

2.2.5 
Authorization. The Class A Shares issuable upon conversion of the Class B Shares have been duly authorized and
reserved for issuance upon such conversion.

 

3. 
Forfeiture of Shares.

 

3.1 
Partial or No Exercise of the Over-allotment Option. In the event the Over-allotment Option granted to the underwriters
of the IPO is not exercised in full, the Subscriber acknowledges and agrees that it (or, if applicable, it and any transferees
of Shares, subject to the terms of the applicable transfer and assignment agreement) shall forfeit at the time such Over-allotment
Option expires (or earlier if the underwriters of the IPO waive their ability to exercise such Over-allotment Option) any and all
rights to such number of Shares (up to an aggregate of 750,000 Shares and pro rata based upon the percentage of the Over-allotment
Option exercised) such that immediately following such forfeiture, the number of Shares will equal 20% of the issued and outstanding
Common Stock immediately following the IPO (in each case, not including Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of any warrants).

 

3.2 
Termination of Rights as Stockholder. If any of the Shares are forfeited in accordance with this Section 3, then after such
time the Subscriber (or successor in interest), shall no longer have any rights as a holder of such forfeited Shares, and the Company
shall take such action as is appropriate to cancel such forfeited Shares.

 

    4

     

    

 

4.  Waiver of Liquidation Distributions; Redemption
Rights. In connection with the Shares purchased and subscribed for pursuant to this Agreement, the Subscriber hereby
waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any distributions by the Company from the trust
account which will be established for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders and into which substantially all
of the proceeds of the IPO will be deposited (the “Trust Account”), in the event of a liquidation of the
Company upon the Company’s failure to timely complete an initial business combination. For purposes of clarity, in the
event the Subscriber purchases securities in the IPO or in the aftermarket, any Class A Shares so purchased and subscribed
for shall be eligible to receive any liquidating distributions by the Company. However, in no event will the Subscriber have
the right to redeem any shares of Common Stock held by it into funds held in the Trust Account upon the successful completion
of an initial business combination.

 

5. 
Restrictions on Transfer.

 

5.1 
Securities Law Restrictions. In addition to any restrictions to be contained in that certain letter agreement (commonly
known as an “Insider Letter”) dated on or prior to the closing of the IPO by and among the Subscriber, the Company
and the other parties thereto, the Subscriber agrees not to sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or
any part of the Shares unless, prior thereto (a) a registration statement on the appropriate form under the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws with respect to the Shares proposed to be transferred shall then be effective or (b) the Company
has received, if requested by the Company, an opinion from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that such registration
is not required because such transaction is exempt from registration under the Securities Act and the rules promulgated by the
Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder and with all applicable state securities laws.

 

5.2 
Lock-up. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Shares will be subject to lock-up provisions (the “Lock-up”)
contained in the Insider Letter. Pursuant to the Insider Letter, the Subscriber will agree (subject to certain customary exceptions)
not to sell, transfer, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Shares until the earliest to occur of:
(a) one year after the completion of the Company’s initial business combination; (b) if the last sale price of
the Class A Shares equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, rights issuances, subdivisions,
reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150
days after the Company’s initial business combination; and (c) the date on which the Company consummates a liquidation,
merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction after the Company’s initial business combination
that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Common Stock for cash, securities
or other property.

 

5.3 
Restrictive Legends. The book entries representing the Shares shall contain legends or notations thereon substantially to
the effect as follows:

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE
NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS AND NEITHER THE SECURITIES NOR ANY
INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION
STATEMENT UNDER SUCH ACT OR SUCH LAWS OR AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS WHICH, IN THE OPINION OF COUNSEL
(IF THE COMPANY SO REQUESTS), IS AVAILABLE.” 

 

    5

     

    

 

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE
SUBJECT TO A LOCKUP AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED DURING THE TERM OF THE LOCK-UP.”

 

5.4 
Additional Shares or Substituted Securities. In the event of the declaration of a stock dividend, the declaration of an
extraordinary dividend payable in a form other than Common Stock, a spin-off, a stock split, an adjustment in conversion ratio,
a recapitalization or a similar transaction affecting the Company’s outstanding Common Stock without receipt of consideration,
any new, substituted or additional securities or other property which are by reason of such transaction distributed with respect
to any Shares subject to this Section 5 or into which such Shares thereby become convertible shall immediately be subject to this
Section 5 and Section 3. Appropriate adjustments to reflect the distribution of such securities or property shall be made to the
number and/or class of Ordinary Shares subject to this Section 5 and Section 3.

 

5.5 
Registration Rights. The Subscriber acknowledges that the Shares are being purchased and subscribed for pursuant to an exemption
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and will become freely tradable only after certain conditions are met
or they are registered pursuant to a registration rights agreement to be entered into with the Company prior to the closing of
the IPO (the “Registration Rights Agreement”).

 

6. 
Other Agreements.

 

6.1 
Further Assurances. The Subscriber agrees to execute such further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably
be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement.

 

6.2 
Notices. All notices, statements or other documents which are required or contemplated by this Agreement shall be in writing
and delivered (i) personally or sent by first class registered or certified mail, overnight courier service or facsimile or
electronic transmission to the address designated in writing, (ii) by facsimile to the number most recently provided to such
party or such other address or fax number as may be designated in writing by such party, or (iii) by electronic mail, to the
electronic mail address most recently provided to such party or such other electronic mail address as may be designated in writing
by such party. Any notice or other communication so transmitted shall be deemed to have been given on the day of delivery, if delivered
personally, on the business day following receipt of written confirmation, if sent by facsimile or electronic transmission, one
(1) business day after delivery to an overnight courier service or five (5) days after mailing if sent by mail.

 

6.3 
Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with the Insider Letter and the Registration Rights Agreement, each substantially
in the form to be filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement on Form S-1 associated with the Company’s IPO, embodies
the entire agreement and understanding between the Subscriber and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes
all prior oral or written agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. No statement, representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement of any kind not expressly set forth in this Agreement shall affect, or be used to interpret, change or restrict,
the express terms and provisions of this Agreement.

 

    6

     

    

 

6.4 
Modifications and Amendments. The terms and provisions of this Agreement may be modified or amended only by written agreement
executed by all parties hereto.

 

6.5 
Waivers and Consents. The terms and provisions of this Agreement may be waived, or consent for the departure therefrom granted,
only by written document executed by the party entitled to the benefits of such terms or provisions. No such waiver or consent
shall be deemed to be or shall constitute a waiver or consent with respect to any other terms or provisions of this Agreement,
whether or not similar. Each such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which
it was given, and shall not constitute a continuing waiver or consent.

 

6.6 
Assignment. The rights and obligations under this Agreement may not be assigned by either party hereto without the prior
written consent of the other party.

 

6.7 
Benefit. All statements, representations, warranties, covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall be binding on the
parties hereto and shall inure to the benefit of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each party hereto. Nothing
in this Agreement shall be construed to create any rights or obligations except among the parties hereto, and no person or entity
shall be regarded as a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

 

6.8 
Governing Law. This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be construed in accordance with
and governed by the laws of New York applicable to contracts wholly performed within the borders of such state.

 

6.9 
Severability. In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction shall determine that any provision, or any portion thereof,
contained in this Agreement shall be unreasonable or unenforceable in any respect, then such provision shall be deemed limited
to the extent that such court deems it reasonable and enforceable, and as so limited shall remain in full force and effect. In
the event that such court shall deem any such provision, or portion thereof, wholly unenforceable, the remaining provisions of
this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect.

 

6.10
No Waiver of Rights, Powers and Remedies. No failure or delay by a party hereto in exercising any right, power or remedy
under this Agreement, and no course of dealing between the parties hereto, shall operate as a waiver of any such right, power or
remedy of such party. No single or partial exercise of any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by a party hereto, nor any
abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce any such right, power or remedy, shall preclude such party from any other or
further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy hereunder. The election of any remedy by a party hereto
shall not constitute a waiver of the right of such party to pursue other available remedies. No notice to or demand on a party
not expressly required under this Agreement shall entitle the party receiving such notice or demand to any other or further notice
or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the party giving such notice or demand to any
other or further action in any circumstances without such notice or demand.

 

6.11 Survival of Representations and
Warranties. All representations and warranties made by the parties hereto in this Agreement or in any other agreement,
certificate or instrument provided for or contemplated hereby, shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and any
investigations made by or on behalf of the parties.

 

    7

     

    

 

6.12
No Broker or Finder. Each of the parties hereto represents and warrants to the other that no broker, finder or other financial
consultant has acted on its behalf in connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in such a way as to
create any liability on the other. Each of the parties hereto agrees to indemnify and save the other harmless from any claim or
demand for commission or other compensation by any broker, finder, financial consultant or similar agent claiming to have been
employed by or on behalf of such party and to bear the cost of legal expenses incurred in defending against any such claim.

 

6.13
Headings and Captions. The headings and captions of the various subdivisions of this Agreement are for convenience of reference
only and shall in no way modify or affect the meaning or construction of any of the terms or provisions hereof.

 

6.14
Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which when taken together shall be considered
one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other
party, it being understood that both parties need not sign the same counterpart. In the event that any signature is delivered by
facsimile transmission or any other form of electronic delivery, such signature shall create a valid and binding obligation of
the party executing (or on whose behalf such signature is executed) with the same force and effect as if such signature page were
an original thereof.

 

6.15
Construction. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. If an ambiguity
or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement will be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto and
no presumption or burden of proof will arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto because of the authorship of any provision
of this Agreement. The words “include,” “includes,” and “including” will be deemed to be followed
by “without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine, and neuter genders will be construed to include any other
gender, and words in the singular form will be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise requires.
The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereof,” “hereby,” “hereunder,”
and words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited.
The parties hereto intend that each representation, warranty, and covenant contained herein will have independent significance.
If any party hereto has breached any representation, warranty, or covenant contained herein in any respect, the fact that there
exists another representation, warranty or covenant relating to the same subject matter (regardless of the relative levels of specificity)
which such party hereto has not breached will not detract from or mitigate the fact that such party hereto is in breach of the
first representation, warranty, or covenant.

 

6.16
Mutual Drafting. This Agreement is the joint product of the Subscriber and the Company and each provision hereof has been
subject to the mutual consultation, negotiation and agreement of such parties and shall not be construed for or against any party
hereto.

 

7.  Voting and Tender of Shares. The Subscriber
agrees to vote the Shares in favor of an initial business combination that the Company negotiates and submits for approval to
the Company’s stockholders and shall not seek redemption or repurchase with respect to any of the Shares in connection
with an initial business combination or any amendment to the Organizational Documents, as amended, prior to an initial
business combination. Additionally, the Subscriber agrees not to tender any Shares in connection with a tender offer
presented to the Company’s stockholders in connection with an initial business combination negotiated by the
Company.

 

8.  Indemnification. Each party shall indemnify the
other against any loss, cost or damages (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) incurred as a result of such
party’s breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement.
