our agreement that, commencing on the effective date (the “Effective Date”) of the registration statement
(the “Registration Statement”) for the initial public offering (the “IPO”)
of the securities of Chardan NexTech Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) and continuing until the earlier

Chardan NexTech Acquisition Corp.

17 State Street, 21st Floor

New York, NY 10004

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Chardan NexTech Acquisition
Corp. (the “Company”), a blank check company formed for the purpose of acquiring one or more businesses or entities
(a “Business Combination”), intends to register its securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities
Act”), in connection with its initial public offering (“IPO”), pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1
(“Registration Statement”).

 

The undersigned hereby
commits that it will purchase an aggregate of 7,500,000 warrants of the Company (“Private Warrants”), at a price of
$0.50 per warrant for an aggregate purchase price of $3,750,000 (the “Private Warrant Purchase Price”).

 

The consummation of
the purchase and issuance of the Private Warrants shall occur simultaneously with the consummation of the IPO. Simultaneously with
the consummation of the IPO, Continental shall deposit the Private Warrant Purchase Price, without interest or deduction, into
the trust fund (“Trust Fund”) established by the Company for the benefit of the Company’s public stockholders
as described in the Registration Statement.

 

Additionally, the undersigned
agrees:

 

	 	●	not to propose, or vote in favor of, an amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of the Company’s shares of Common Stock sold in the IPO if the Company does not complete an initial Business Combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, unless the Company provides the holders of shares of Common Stock sold in the IPO with the opportunity to redeem their shares of Common Stock upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount of the Trust Fund, including interest earned on Trust Fund and not previously released to the Company to pay the Company’s franchise and income taxes, divided by the number of then outstanding shares of Common Stock sold in the IPO;

 

	 	●	the undersigned will not participate in any liquidation distribution with respect to the Private Warrants (but will participate in liquidation distributions with respect to any units or Common Stock purchased by the undersigned in the IPO or in the open market) if the Company fails to consummate a Business Combination;

 

	 	●	that the Private Warrants and underlying securities will not be transferable until after the consummation of a Business Combination except (i) to the Company’s pre-IPO stockholders, or to the Company’s officers, directors, advisors and employees, (ii) transfers to the undersigned’s affiliates or its members upon its liquidation, (iii) to relatives and trusts for estate planning purposes, (iv) by virtue of the laws of descent and distribution upon death, (v) pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, (vi) by private sales at prices no greater than the price at which the Private Warrants were originally purchased or (vii) to the Company for cancellation in connection with the consummation of a Business Combination, in each case (except for clause vii) where the transferee agrees to the terms of the transfer restrictions; and
	 	 	 
	 	●	the Private Warrants will include any additional terms or restrictions as is customary in other similarly structured blank check company offerings or as may be reasonably required by the underwriters in the IPO in order to consummate the IPO, each of which will be set forth in the Registration Statement.

 

     

     

    

 

The undersigned acknowledges
and agrees that the purchaser of the Private Warrants will execute agreements in form and substance typical for transactions of
this nature necessary to effectuate the foregoing agreements and obligations prior to the consummation of the IPO as are reasonably
acceptable to the undersigned, including but not limited to an insider letter.

 

The undersigned hereby
represents and warrants that:

 

(a) it has been advised
that the Private Warrants have not been registered under the Securities Act;

 

(b) it will be acquiring
the Private Warrants for its account for investment purposes only;

 

(c) it has no present
intention of selling or otherwise disposing of the Private Warrants in violation of the securities laws of the United States;

 

(d) it is an “accredited
investor” as defined by Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended;

 

(e) it has had both
the opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the officers and directors of the Company and all persons acting on its
behalf concerning the terms and conditions of the offer made hereunder;

 

(f) it is familiar
with the proposed business, management, financial condition and affairs of the Company;

 

(g) it has full power,
authority and legal capacity to execute and deliver this letter and any documents contemplated herein or needed to consummate the
transactions contemplated in this letter; and

 

(h) this letter constitutes
its legal, valid and binding obligation, and is enforceable against it.

 

This letter agreement
constitutes the entire agreement between the undersigned and the Company with respect to the purchase of the Private Warrants,
and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral,
with respect to the same.

    PROMISSORY NOTE

    

    

    Principal Amount: up to $300,000          Dated as of January 29, 2021

    

    

    (as set forth on the Schedule of Borrowings attached hereto)

    

    

    TCV Acquisition Corp., a Cayman Islands exempted company and blank check company (the “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of TCV Acquisition Holdings, a Cayman Islands limited
      liability company, or its registered assigns or successors in interest (the “Payee”), or order, the principal sum of up to three hundred thousand U.S. dollars ($300,000) (as set forth on the Schedule of
      Borrowings attached hereto) in lawful money of the United States of America, on the terms and conditions described below. All payments on this Note shall be made by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds or as otherwise determined by
      the Maker to such account as the Payee may from time to time designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Note.

    

    

    1.          Principal. The principal balance of this Note shall be payable by the Maker on the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2021, or (ii) the date on which Maker consummates an
      initial public offering of its securities (the “IPO”). The principal balance may be prepaid at any time. Under no circumstances shall any individual, including but not limited to any officer, director, employee
      or shareholder of the Maker, be obligated personally for any obligations or liabilities of the Maker hereunder.

    

    

    2.          Interest. No interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

    

    

    3.          Drawdown Requests. Maker and Payee agree that Maker may request up to Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) for costs reasonably related to Maker’s initial public
      offering of its securities. The principal of this Note may be drawn down from time to time prior to the earlier of: (i) December 31, 2021, or (ii) the date on which Maker consummates an initial public offering of its securities, upon written request
      from Maker to Payee (each, a “Drawdown Request”). Each Drawdown Request must state the amount to be drawn down, and must not be an amount less than One Thousand Dollars ($1,000) unless agreed upon by Maker and
      Payee. Payee shall fund each Drawdown Request no later than one (1) business day after receipt of a Drawdown Request; provided, however, that the maximum amount of drawdowns collectively under this Note is Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000).
      No fees, payments or other amounts shall be due to Payee in connection with, or as a result of, any Drawdown Request by Maker.

    

    

    4.          Application of Payments. All payments shall be applied first to payment in full of any costs incurred in the collection of any sum due under this Note, including
      (without limitation) reasonable attorney’s fees, then to the payment in full of any late charges and finally to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

    

    

    
      
        

    

    

    

    5.          Events of Default. The following shall constitute an event of default (“Event of Default”):

      consent by it to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or other similar official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of any assignment for
      the benefit of creditors, or the failure of Maker generally to pay its debts as such debts become due, or the taking of corporate action by Maker in furtherance of any of the foregoing.

    

    

    (c)          Involuntary Bankruptcy, Etc. The entry of a decree or order for relief by a court having jurisdiction in the premises in respect of Maker in an involuntary case under any applicable
      bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) of Maker or for any substantial part of its property, or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of its
      affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days.

    

    

    6.          Remedies.

    

    

    (a)          Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a) hereof, Payee may, by written notice to Maker, declare this Note to be due immediately and payable, whereupon the
      unpaid principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts payable thereunder, shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained
      herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the contrary notwithstanding.

    

    

    (b)          Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Sections 5(b) and 5(c), the unpaid principal balance of this Note, and all other sums payable with regard to this Note, shall

      protest with regard to the Note, all errors, defects and imperfections in any proceedings instituted by Payee under the terms of this Note, and all benefits that might accrue to Maker by virtue of any present or future laws exempting any property,
      real or personal, or any part of the proceeds arising from any sale of any such property, from attachment, levy or sale under execution, or providing for any stay of execution, exemption from civil process, or extension of time for payment; and Maker
      agrees that any real estate that may be levied upon pursuant to a judgment obtained by virtue hereof, on any writ of execution issued hereon, may be sold upon any such writ in whole or in part in any order desired by Payee.

      and consents to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications that may be granted by Payee with respect to the payment or other provisions of this Note, and agrees that additional makers, endorsers, guarantors, or sureties may
      become parties hereto without notice to Maker or affecting Maker’s liability hereunder.

    

    

    9.          Notices. All notices, statements or other documents which are required or contemplated by this Agreement shall be: (i) in writing and delivered personally or sent by

      after delivery to an overnight courier service or five (5) days after mailing if sent by mail.

    11.          Severability. Any provision contained in this Note which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the
      extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other
      jurisdiction.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Payee hereby waives any and all right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) in or to any distribution of or from the trust account to be established in which the proceeds of the IPO conducted by the Maker (including the deferred underwriters discounts and commissions) and certain
      of the proceeds of the sale of the warrants issued in a private placement to occur in connection with the consummation of the IPO are to be deposited, as described in greater detail in the registration statement and prospectus to be filed with the
      Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the IPO, and hereby agrees not to seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the trust account for any reason whatsoever.
